This is boxing, not the WWF. I don't care what anybody says, it takes quite a bit of power and energy away from one to pick up and try to carry and throw around a guy the size of Klitschko. Waste of energy is all that was.. dont know wtf he was trying to accomplish. He made himself, and the sport look stupid. This is boxing, not the WWF. Happened multiple times, and the referee did **** all to punish Chambers, and his foolish acts.... on top of that he got KTFO at the end. :-(
It's plain and simple, Chambers did not want to be leaned on in every clinch, so he threw his arse down.
this is it. Chambers was letting Vlad know he wasn't going to be pushed around...and for the first couple of rounds it worked - whenever they clinched it was the only time Chambers had the upper hand and he was man handling the Kilt. it didn't score any points of course, but I don't think it wast a waste of energy in this case because he was trying to psyche Wlad.
Plus Wlad has a habit of sometimes taking his elbow and pressing it down on the opponent near their shoulder/neck. Sometimes he'll just headlock an opponent if they rush in too quickly. Ali did it too. Wlad does a lot of subtle things to get any advantage he can. It's a little tricky, sometimes slightly dirty. Chambers wasn't going to tolerate this I guess.
Yea I figured he was trying to rough him off, and knock him out of his rythym. But considering it was the beginning of the fight, and Wlad wasnt even in his rythym yet, it just looked stupid. I bet he wasted a LOT of energy doing that, that he could have used to throw some more punches..... or at least duck some more punches. In the end Wlad was leaning on him anyways. Looked like Rocky 3 where he was fighting Hulk Hogan... except getting beat up in the end. But I guess it doesnt matter since the end result was always going to be the same.
