If Chambers had fought Povetkin again last night

Why do Povetkin fans always have to mention the flu? He certainly didn't look like he had the flu when he fought Chambers and was schooled for four rounds straight. You honestly think the outcome would be the same if he fought Chambers again? Povetkin isn't all that skilled, his defense is average and is easy to counter because he likes to charge in and try to smother his opponents. If Chambers had a higher workrate he would of won and Povetkin's face would of been messed up more.

 

Because it was mentioned during the fight by the german tv commentator and after the fight (american) journalists said he was coughing he lungs out.

And Chambers hasn't got a higher workrate, that's just the way he fights. I'd see a fit Povetkin winning a wider points decision than last time.

 

His workrate has gotten higher which he has shown against Dimitrenko and Peter. Dimitrenko is like 6'7 and Chambers had to fight him differently and he still put up a competitive workrate. Peter is a puncher and Chambers out jabbed him. I saw the fight against Povetkin, from rounds 5-12 Chambers wasn't even throwing punches he was just looking to counter, hardly using his jab, and hardly thowing any punches. Povetkin isn't 6'7 and he's no puncher, a much more motivated and eager Chambers beats Povetkin next time.

 

povetkins head was bouncing around like a rubber ball in the first fight. povetkin needs to retire before he gets hurt really bad.
