Who would win between these two rising heavyweights?? I'm liking Chambers in this one due to his movement and precision punches....Eddie does have quick hands for a big guy so I think this will be the key in this one....Chris will make anyone fight but I saw his weakness when McCline was able to land that left hook on him.
Eddie Chambers by decision. Arreola would have to KO Chambers, but Chambers has an extremely good chin. And he is very hard to hit. Chambers will expose Arreola's many technical flaws, and lack of athleticism.
IMO Chambers plays it the same as the Peter fight. Arreola would be tough the 1st 3 - 4 rounds but then I think he will fade with that weight trying to follow Chambers around in the middle rounds Chambers by UD
If Arreola comes into the fight in shape then Chris by 9th round KO or possibly a UD based upon outworking Chambers. Eddie has to bring a lot more to the table than just a jab to keep this guy off.
I agree...For Chris to beat Chambers he needs footwork (which he lacks) and he needs to corner and KO Chambers which I seriously doubt he could do. Exactly.:good Chambers will most likely go into his defensive shell and weather the storm from Arreola then he would counter him all night....Arreola showed me in the McCline fight that he's open for counter given how many times McCline was able to get that left hook in there.
I'd probably favour Arreola actually. Chambers has this habit of doing JUST enough to sneak a round. Against a completely demotivated Sam Peter its enough, but Arreola is hungry (in a boxing sense). I think Arreola would put on enough pressure and do enough work to take a decision. A lot of Chambers work are "keep off me" jabs that wouldn't really bother Arreola, I think Arreola would be the one throwing the more significant and eye catching punches.
Yeah, but Arreola's boxing skills suck and is very slow. Skills pay the bills. Arreola can throw a lot of punches but that dont mean they are going to land against the very hard to hit Chambers. I would be surprised if Arreola could keep the pace since he has d size breast. Chambers by decision.
Chambers is the better boxer but I don't think he has enough power to keep Arreola honest. To top it off he isn't mean enough to deal with Arreola's aggression. Arreola would be behind on the cards but he would KO Chambers somewhere inbetween the 6th and 8th rounds.
Chambers pulls straight back way too often. Arreola is always coming forward and he would follow Eddie and tag him eventually.
Chambers has fought real opponents Peter and Povetkin. His defensive record stands for it self. Both Sam and Alexander had a lot of difficulty landing punches and had a very low connect perectage. Were as Arreola is always opened to be countered. Chambers would pick off Arreola slow punches and counter him all night long to a decision.
All depends on Arreola's stamina. If he can go strong for 12, he wins. If he can't, Chambers routs him. Arreola would be able to walk through Chambers' punches, and Chambers is pretty bad when people can actually get inside on him. I'm just afraid that Arreola would run out of gas and allow Chambers to box him on the outside, in which case he probably wouldn't miss a jab all night.
I have been thinking about this for awhile, and I think Arreola would win. Chambers is a cool hw. He is one of my guys. Great boxer, and he would hurt Arreola a couple times, and I think he would knock arreola down too a few times. But, I think Arreola would eventually regroup in the fight, and catch Chambers and put Chamber's chin to the test. I don't think Chambers's chin would hold up, and he would eventually get Ko'd by Arreola. I think this fight would be very similar to the Adamek/Banks fight. Almost identical.
