    Sorry all, but after viewing a few of Chambers' fights, he is way way too relaxed in the ring. Brock's aggression has nothing on what Povetkin is going to bring. Expect a stoppage.

    Indeed, neither displayed much for a World Class HW. Even assuming a miricale , and chambers beats Povetkin.

    Chambers honestly has no chance in hell of ever beating Vlad. He is too short, doesnt have any punching power, and is pretty much just a less slick version of Byrd. Although, he does have a better offensive arsenal then Byrd, but still with out power.

    Povetkin will stop wlad. it doesn't matter how big wlad is.
    Povetkin won't fall into the same trap as wlad's previous opponents..it's not gonna be a jab fest...

    it's not gonna be a repeat of brewster vs wlad II...

    He's got the potential to become the next champ.
    Of course , anything can happen and maybe chambers will ko him...(who knows)....

    but right now , he seems to be very confident , versatile and he's got great endurance.

    Brock looked terrible after the 3rd round or so although not nearly as bad as that idiot Steve Farhood was saying.

    What was up with Brock letting Chambers stalk him like that? Calvin looked real slow, sloppy & soft in the body, he had man boobs for heaven's sake. He was in much better shape vs. Klitschko & he had better speed too.

    If all eastern euros were as entertaining as Povetkin...this HW division would be super fun to watch...

    Povetkin always goes for combos and he's very active...

    Chambers is incredibly fast for a heavyweight
    With his jabs Eddie will give alot of problems to Povetkin, its goona be a pick-em fight

    Brock is clearly going through what many boxers go through after getting knocked out at the endgame. You get there with a gameplan and then when it falls apart you start looking to replace things and people.

    Obviously he replaced too much and now doesn't know what direction to go in. He put on weight against a guy you don't want weight with. He had a defensive boxer in his corner when he should have trained for pressure and volume. It was all downhill really leading up to this. The 240lbs told me what I needed to know.

    But that isn't all of it. Chambers for his part also didn't impress me. He had a beaten guy in front of him and did nothing. Being relaxed ain't all it's trumped up to be. Sometimes you are so relaxed you simply don't want it. Not wanting it results in not getting it. And he almost didn't get it against a very beaten fighter in Brock.

    Povetkin will bring it all 12 rounds to Chambers. And that relaxed attitude isn't going to cut it when you have a decent sized heavyweight pounding on your gloves and arms all night. Povetkin is no defensive cutey, he's all about moving forward. Chambers had really better work on his fire in the future or he won't get very far. As it is I expect Povetkin to win big.

    I think Povetkin will beat Chambers, but it will not be a blow out like many might think. Eddie fights too relaxed and cautious...I think once he finally gets really tested versus Sasha he will turn up the heat to make it interesting......but it will likely not be enough in the end.

    C'mon now. ''Nothing to do'', they are heavyweights and there are heavy's way more bad them then. They have to be there to separate the betters from them. Do you only want Marciano's, Louis's and Tyson's? Yes me too. But that's impossible.

    They deserve to be in the place that they are, and that is top 20(?)

    The heavy scene sucks big time anyway so what's the prob
