No one is underrating Haye's skills, they don't call him the haymaker for nothing, because that's what he throws, telegraphed haymakers. To strong for Chambers? And Peter, Brock, and Dimitrenko weren't? Haye does have some skills, but his defense sucks, and his offense sucks too. He's just fast and explosive that's it.
Clearly alot of you are going to be in for a shock if they ever fight. Haye would destroy Chambers, and is way way more skilled than any you seem to realise. Chambers is nothing special at all. Has one good fight over a pathetic Dimitrenko who he should of KO'd and all you silly Yanks start to cream yourselfs :rofl
Chambers is about one of the only guys, i picked Haye would beat, to ever get a shot at fighting Wlad again...
Right he is nothing like Brewster, but my point is if his confidence keeps getting stronger and he keeps fighting with more heart like his last fight he could become a Brewster like force,but with skill and speed and not have to take the type of punishment Brewster took.
Haye doesn't like guys who come after him and have a good work rate. Haye looked bad in a couple of rounds against Mormeck and Fragomeni, at times he looked frustrated. He did a great job winning those fights, but they exposed some of his flaws. Chambers would come after him, tie him up in close quarters and not give him time to crouch in the back and slowly load up one of his big rands from way back behind the ropes. Chambers would neutralize a lot of Haye's advantages. Doesn't mean Haye wouldn't have a chance but it would be his toughest fight yet. Chambers looked much better against Dimitrenko and Peter than Haye looked against Barrett, and Barrett is leagues below those both guys in age, motivation and skill.
Chambers would out hustle Haye & eventually catch him later in the fight. With his lack of chin I can't see Haye going the full distance even though Eddie isn't the biggest puncher. The fact is he would land enough to get Haye outta there.
If Haye can't hurt Chambers then I think Chambers wins taking over after Haye gets tried. But, I do think Haye would hurt Chambers. Haye is pretty fast and he really puts everything into his punches. Chambers has a tendency to do "just enough", and with Haye landing the harder blows, Haye wins. I think he even stops Eddie Chambers.
Haye is severely underrated. This guy is a World Amateur silver Medalist and he apparently has no offense or defense? Yeah he's called "Hayemaker" but this is due to his power rather than his telegraphed punches. Chambers is alright but struggled with a plodding Peter and beat a **** Ivan Drago lookalike in Dimentriko.
I'm slightly surprised at the big edge in the "voting" here for Chambers. Early I'd favor Haye, most likely by (T)KO. The longer the fight goes, the better for Eddie. By mid rounds, unless EC is way behind, I'd favor Chambers.
