What's up with Fast Eddie these days?
I haven't seen him fight in a while, and he used to get good fights all the time: Povetkin, Dimitrenko, Sam Peter, Klitschko, etc.
I'd like to see him back in the ring testing these young heavyweights.
I think Chambers can still beat most of the top heavyweights. He definitely has the skills. It's just a matter of someone giving him a shot. I thought he was a Haymon fighter but he hasn't been on PBC or Showtime since he was signed?
Eddie definitely has the skills to beat most of the heavies out there right now. Trouble is he suffers from Kevin Johnson syndrome. The guy's just not urgent enough. He's also desperately undersized for the division at the moment, though that could play into his hands, as I'm sure many larger fighters will think they can (erroneously) beat him on size alone. He'd murk the likes of Brezeale and Washington and probably Martin as well. Lots of other winnable fights out there. He needs to call in some of that Fury favour and get himself on some decent cards fighting name opponents. He's wasting his prime beating up scrubs for pocket change.

WTF is this nonsense lol. Red K.
What are you, some 19 year old scrub? :lol1:
Only a teenie bopper has such a skewed view of age and development.
I am 31 and ripped to shreds and am in way better shape than I was at 24, and I was an army ranger at 24.
But muscle turns to fat at 30? Go to school kid.
I'd let this crap slide but someone out there might be foolish enough to believe this nonsense and might hurt themselves training out there.
This is 2016 ffs, you won't even notice an athlete aging til their 40s if they take care of themselves.
Moron young cats who thinkg the lifespan of a male is 1-30 and then you go into a senior center or something. LMFAO. I am still banging 18 year olds at my age and I don't even look older than 25, you would have to card me to discover I am over 30.
idk what you're talking about
look at the pic i posted of chambers he was looking soft at age 30
dont care about your muscles man im not a chick
wait... are you eddie chambers?
He had those back to back losses against Adamek and Mchunu and around that time he was training with Tyson Fury.
I think when you're a small guy at HW who relies completely on speed then you hit 30 and your muscles turn to fat your elite days are probably numbered. He just stays busy against journeymen lately. Probably hoping for one more big fight.

I think he's supposed to fight this year. Least that's what I read. But maybe this helps:

That Heavyweight Division is so open right now..I'm excited!!— Eddie Chambers (@champfasteddie) January 19, 2016
Funny you mentioned that, I was thinking about Chambers yesterday and saw an interview where he said he's looking for a decent name to face in the next few months.
He also did an interview with the Lukie Boxing podcast last week:

I stopped following him on twitter because I was sick if him constantly complaining about everyone "ducking" him. But he def got more shredded than he was earlier in his career.
He's a heavyweight with no power who has no problem stinking up the show. These guys just don't get it.
No one else gets to be Floyd. No one else in our history will ever get to be as boring as Floyd, and still be a draw. So many black fighters trying to fight "safe", none of them realize, they aren't Floyd.
Hmmm I looked at some pics from his last fight and he doesn't look so bad
I stopped watching him after the Mchunu fight so I just remember him starting to grow granny tits

He just doesn't want to do the work. If he's serious about a big fight, he should get busy, fight a few cans, get up the rankings. I could see someone giving him a shot, he's past prime, pretty easy defense for a champion and he's still a name.

He was, i don't think he's been used for a while. Not really the best preparation for fighting Klitschko.
Eddie claims that he's ducked and wants the big fights, but he's shown no desire to try and get anything sorted.

He's chief sparring partner to the Furys.

Surprised Hearn hasn't pulled him in for Joshua.
Vaguely relevant, experienced, quick and competent, might last some rounds, whilst be very low risk of causing an upset.
Would be a decent payday for Chambers too, especially if the card was stacked with a couple of world titles to allow Matchroom to fulfill one of their obligated Sky PPV's.

I was wondering the same thing recently. Appears he's been fighting low level guys over in Blighty. Only fought once last year. Don't know what's happening with him really. Looks like the schooling he got from Mchunu really screwed with his self-belief. Shame. He was, and probably still is, a very good fighter. Just had a Wlad moment against Mchunu.
