Why not Vitali/Chambers with Wlad sidelined?

    While I'd call myself a Vitali fan, I'm not pleased with the Johnson fight as I think KJ hasn't earned his shot. Chambers has.

    I know Chambers is lined up for Wlad, but with Wlad on the shelf past the new year (I think), why not fight Vitali in December? Chambers wouldn't want to be inactive that long, I'd imagine.

    Would Chambers turn the fight down? Does K2 want Chambers for Wlad for some reason? Thoughts?

    True ..Wlad is easier for ne fighter though....Vitali is a freakin beast..Chambers loses to both..Vitali TKO's him and Wlad takes a UD 117-111 or something around that

    Chamber is Wlad's mandatory, though I see where you're comming from. And Vitali deserves a littel easier matchup since he just fought and fought a good undefeated fighter in Arreola. Can't complain with Vitali's number of fights the last year.

    I think Chambers will last longer with Vitali. Chambers has no chance against either Klitschko, but against Wlad, Chambers is finished with the first right hand Wlad throws (about round 4 or so?) Against Vitali, Chamber could last a bit because Vitali does not load up on shots. Chambers' corner stops it around 9 or so.

    Chambers get either a master beatdown, or a boxing master class. Either way, he loses horribly.

    I agree I wish it was Chambers. Vitali tried to first fight Haye then its Arreola and now Kevin Johnson not disrespecting anyone but none of those 3 guys have the resume Chambers has a Heavyweight. Fast Eddie has beat Calvin Brock, Alexander Dimitrenko and Sam Peter hes cleary a top 5 Heavyweight. What happened to his one loss Alexander Povetkin ? I always thought he was Wlads mandatory for beating Chambers.

    It´s the other way. Wlad will TKO Chambers. The easier fight for Chambers would be Vitali.

    I think Chambers decisions Vitali. Against Wladimir it would be more a difficult match because of the stylistic matchup, but Chambers has a good chance to beat him too.

    But this fight needs to happen and Wladimir can fight Povetkin instead, his other mandatory.

    Wladimir is a much better boxer than Vitali, better footwork, harder puncher. Chambers is fast so Chambers will have a chance against Vitali, not against Wlad.

    But i believe that Vitali will win against Chambers but his chance is much better. Against Wlad Chambers had no chance.

    cause Chambers has shown a good chin, fast hands and the ability to beat a big man.

    Povetkin aside, Chambers has shown a dedication to lose weight and is a good traveller.

    I think he's got all the tools to beat Vitali. The hate will come flooding in but **** it, an opinion is an opinion and I have given reasons.

    I love the fact people just say 'no chance' rather than attempting to give a stylistic analysis.

    Due to lack of knowledge of the sport methinks :deal
