    This isn't a 'who wins' poll, it's 'who will you be rooting for':good.

    The current stalwart and powerhouse of the division, Wladimir Klitschko, squares off against mandatory opponent, Eddie Chambers, early next year. Wlad has enjoyed long-term success against all-comers with his excellent defence and patience in the ring. Chambers is a young, exciting, talented American heavyweight with all the odds stacked up against him looking to shock the world.

    Who will you cheer on and why?

    :good

    I am definitely supporting Eddie, but Wlad would most likely win. Wlad and Vitali have been so dominant, I don't see either of them losing any time soon. However, it would be nice to see an upset happen.

    With his chin, handspeed and newfound dedication to training, I think Chambers CAN pull off the upset.

    I want him to win because it will end the Klitschko monopoly and create some interestign fights. Would he fare any better than Gomez against Vitali? Will his style be kryptonite for Haye, who relies on speed and movement against the big guys (by the looks of it)?

    I'm rooting for Chambers, who I've been a fan of for a while. Doubt it will happen though,as most recent opponents have (regardless of their skill level, see: Chagaev) Fast Eddie will probably eat the jab for five or six round and succumb to a late round pulverising or go down wide on points.

    When's it scheduled for?

    I really like both fighters, would root for Wladimir because he can build a great legacy now with being consistent.

    Agreed, no real vested interest, just want to see better fights in the HW division after so many Klit bros.' snoozers.

    Im a big fan of both but I want Wlad to win. I have rooted for him since the first fight I saw against Jefferson. Lately I get frustrated because I miss the old Wlad who was knocking guys out faster and threw more crosses and hooks. He is ver defenseive minded. I thought he should have beat guys like Chuagev and Rahman and Thompson in half the time of he unleashed earlier.
