I see Eddie winning 4 out of 12 rounds, but I give him a better chance of going 12 than anyone, including Vitali. I voted for Vitali however because he has the best chance to actually win the fight. If Wlad had Vitali's chin, I'd go with him, but he doesn't.
    Are you kidding? Chambers would be broken in half, he's not even a legit heavyweight without the extra fat.

        He doesn't get knocked out due to his fighting style, similar to the way Jimmy Young fought (yet another Philadelphia fighter). Without the "extra fat", Jimmy wasn't all that much bigger than Eddie.

        Jimmy was knocked out only twice, and never knocked out in his prime. And the two guys who KOed him I believe hit harder than Tyson (Shavers when Young was still green, and Cooney when Young was a little bit past it).

        Eddie Chambers is currently in his prime, I think. He's not getting broken in half by anyone. Much more durable fighters than he could have a lower chance of survival simply because their styles leave them open to take punishment.

        But don't bother responding...I already know you won't get it. The best fighter in the world uses the Philadelphia shell defense and you swear Pacman is going to demolish him. CLEARLY you would not agree with the above statements under such circumstances, so don't even bother.

          ** Dude, NOBODY gets you other than you give our president a bad name. Slap a white skin on Eddie and call him Chambersmov, and you'd be telling us he's an typical, easy to hit upright Euro robot.

          Chambers is currently the most one dimensional heavy in the top ten. The only reason he ain't KTFO is because he hasn't been matched with big sluggers like the Klitschkos, Haye or Arreola.

          Jimmy Young was a freestylist who was as likely as not to do anything under the sun with his feet, hands, and body. Restricting him to your weary Philly style which hasn't fared so well in the heavy division is blithering.

            Definitely Vitali Klitschko, he has the height, reach, power and chin to beat Tyson.

              Aside from the statement that demonstrates you know nothing about what's currently happening in boxing, cut the racist bull****. You're the one obsessed with members of 1 race.

              If Philadelphia had a White Heavyweight worth bringing up, I would. Closest we got is the LHW division:

              Tommy Loughran
              Battling Levinsky
              Philadelphia Jack O'Brien

              So stop trying to play me, you can't.

                    Disagree... He'd have needed a gun in the mid 80's...

                      vitali has the best chance, but he's so robotic he'd have to do a lot of holding to go the distance imo.
