I don't see why Vitali shouldn't fight Chambers next. Wladimir isn't ready to fight until March because he's scared of Chambers (just joking). Seriously Wladimir isn't ready to fight until March because he's injuried which means Chambers will be inactive for 8 months. I think Vitali is ready to fight early next year.
Here is a glimpse of how good Eddie Chambers is
Byrd did not give Vitali a tough fight, he was eating leather for 10 rounds until Vitali hurt himself.
Byrd was 10 times more active than Chambers, although I like Chambers' arsenal a little better.
:wtf1:
That was 10 YEARS AGO and Vitali was COMPLETELY DOMINATING Byrd until the FREAK injury, his arm was literally falling off.
Wlad destroyed Byrd twice.
Vitali was clearly beating Byrd, but Byrd was game, he wasn't even close to being knocked out and was occasionally landing the straight left. It didn't help that Byrd is featherfisted too.
If Byrd gave Vitali a tough fight in his prime, Chambers can only do better. Chambers is just as good as Byrd, hits harder, and has a different style.
Now Chambers vs Wladimir would be a mismatch.

Chambers is the most technically sound fighter who doesn't hold the title today. Vitali vs. Chambers is the only fight that makes sense for Vitali. There is really nobody else out there.
On the other hand, Chambers is tailor made for Vitali, even at this stage in his career.

Povetkin beat the shit out of Chambers.
Chambers struggled against Klitschko victims Sam Peter and Calvin Brock....Wlad brutally KO'd Brock and ruined his career, he was overweight and damaged goods when he fought he fought Chambers, came in at a career high 241 lbs, he was 223 lbs for the Wladimir Klitschko fight....Vitali easily destroyed Sam Peter, he also was damaged goods and overweight when he fought Chambers and came in at career high 267 lbs, he was 250 lbs against Vitali, 243 lbs against Wlad....Chambers only managed to win close split decisions over these shot Klitschko victims. If Peter and Brock were in shape, they would've outworked Chambers and won decisions....Chambers dosen't throw enough punches and he lacks heart, Povetkin beat the shit out of him and stole his heart, he totally outworked and overwhelmed Chambers and made him go into a cowardly shell in survival mode.
Chambers gets outclassed and destroyed by either Klitschko.
