Klitschko v Chambers Prediction

Look at the reach difference -their hands are almost at the same level in this shot and Wlad's shoulders way higher.

If Eddie doesn't get stopped it will be a major accomplishment (provided he doesn't go into a defensive shell)

Wlad TKO 10

 

I'm glad to see that Chambers weighed in at 209 - but it won't be enough to help him win.

I don't think he's got sufficiently good head movement to get past the jab, which I think he'll be eating all night. If he becomes discouraged, I think he can do well enough defensively to last the distance. Wlad will box cautiously, throwing a few big rights along the way - enough to convince Chambers not to try anything too clever.

If Chambers does really go for it, Wlad will ko him. My first instinct is Wlad by wide decision.

 

Why is Chambers sitting down?

 

Chambers still has love handles ,compare his sides to Wlad's.

 

i think chambers is going to have trouble with the jab, and hte distance. we need someone like david haye to knock wladimir clean out. chambers doesn't have that style, nor the power.

 

Who's "we" :huh Just curious.

 

boxing fans, casuals fans, whoever. basically, wladimir has problems with fast punchers who have power, so we need a david haye sort of boxer to beat wladimir. you can't pitty pat wladimir. all wladimir losses have all been by knockouts.

 

Wlad KO.

 

Damn I thought this will be somewhat competitive but looking at this pic... Like daddy and son...

If he dies - he dies.

 

Wlad by all rights should win this by KO, but I hold out hope that Chambers is slick and fast enough to catch him early with some good rights. If Chambers can pop Wlad like he did to Povetkin, Klit just MIGHT be in trouble.

 

Don't you think your avi is a bit gay...? maybe...?

PS. I hope you're right in this post.

 

YES, I do. I lost a bet and now I have to pay the piper.atsch

 

Wladimir is a giant, he towers over everybody in that press conference. I don't believe Eddie's is fazed though, his last opponent was also alot taller, and it didn't discourage him...

 

I agree. Wlad has always been in superb shape, even in his losses. I do however, think that Manny Steward has shown him how to relax in the ring, thus saving tons of energy. Wladimir was a nervous mess in the Peter fight. Wlad was genuinely scared of all the Peter-hype in that fight. A confident Wlad would have starched Peter fairly early. Chambers has to hit him with a great shot to make Klit doubt himself and he has to do it early in the fight.
