    Size isn't everything, not even close. But Wlad is very talented, a very good boxer, and he will have a 6 inch reach advantage, 5 inches in height, and about 40lbs in weight over Chambers. I just don't see how Chambers can overcome that against Wlad.

    Chambers won 5 straight since that fight and Poev 2. Not sure he should lose the higher ranking but Chambers has also beaten better opposition since that fight than Poev has.

    Povetkin already pulled out of one fight with Wlad, thats why Wlad fought Rahman. Povetkin now doesnt wanna fight Wlad he isnt ready. I dont think he will ever be ready he doesnt have the skills. Chambers should ahve beat Povetkin, he just seemed to stop fighting in the mid to later rds.

    There isnt anyone right now more deserving of a HW shot than chambers. I dont know how will overcome wlad, I personally dont think he can but I am rooting for him. He does have the handspeed advantage.

    This only makes sense if Povetkin is asking for more time to make the fight, otherwise Povetkin had to go first, then Chambers.

    I heard that this fight was being picked up by HBO to be staged in the US. what happened with that?

    Anyway, if Wlad manages to fight both Chambers and Povetkin till July 2010, he should have 3 fights during the year and a pretty good run.

    When will Chambers start his trash talking campaign? Not unlike his pal Kevin Johnson.

    right.
    like I said. IBF told WBO to go 1st. so Chambers in March...Povetkin in late may or June...maybe july.... then a 3rd fight in the fall.

    from what I have heard. HBO is showing the fight live. No country or arena picked yet for the fight with Chambers..only the date

    Chambers isnt a trash talker. He is currently the best heavy in the USA. I am behind him 100%. Logically I dont think he can beat Wlad. But, I dont think anyone right now can beat wlad. chambers is a very good boxer with a good chin and excellent skills. He is undersized in today's world of superheavies and needs every advantage he can get.

    He has been training hard and I am hopeful that he can come with some kinda gameplan to beat wlad.

    actually we had chambers as a sparing partner for the Brock fight. Eddie is a very respectful nice guy. I dont think you will hear any **** talking. I think you will hear words of determination, but not **** talking ala johnson or Haye

    Good to hear! I have seen him fight six times and you are correct. I do not recall him trash talking much. Him and his team did not exactly give Povetkin much credit after their fight but it was rather mild compared to most.

    No... not this one. I set Vitali up the chef from the hotel in austria that we always train at. Vitali is set in his ways so I only consulted on this one even though wlad and everyone yelled at vitali to bring me in. especially after how he looked after arreola.

    Vitali told me things went very well and the chef there stayed with the game plan:good

    Wlad beat him from post to post. To big and to strong. BUT Eddie has greatly improved. I still think wlad will win by KO, but we dont put much on the past sparing.

    we sent eddie hom after 2 weeks with 2 black eyes and a busted lip:bbb:bbb

    but he is a hellof a nice guy:good:good
