Chris Arreola and Eddie Chambers are the only 2 good american hw contenders and hopes for champions. The last american to hold a title was shannon briggs. Arreola has good power and is a decent boxer but comes in to fights overweight, Eddie Chambers lacks power but is a very good boxers also need to come into fights in better shape. Honestly I dont think either guy will ever hold a title, so American hw's fans are going to have wait a long time. Thoughts?

Both Chambers and Arreola are very good, but need to come to fight in better shape.
I don't see a lot of good American heavyweight hopefuls on the horizon, except maybe Deontay Wilder.
In contrast, there's at least 25 good young heavyweights in Europe. -
maybe if they took it serious, and stayed, and got in 100 pct shape.Comment

I see chambers as someone who can really hone in his skills...
Not to keen on Arreola... seems like a slugger based style ,who relies on his power and chin...
I usually like fast explosive guys, so Chambers has my attention for sure...Comment

I like Chambers better.Comment

Chambers has the ability to be better but he is to lazy and doesn’t let his punches go, The only young American heavyweight who I have seen that is any good is that Tor Hamer guy but he has only had about 4 fights.

Arreola is a joke - seriously people. Chambers has talent - but needs to get with a good trainer that can provide a solid break between what he needs to do - and his family telling him what/how to do it. Removing Sr. as his trainer was smart - but he still doesn't have the right guy, IMO.

There a few guys who are still away from contender status such as travis kaufman deontay wilder Im sure there is a few im missing, but I see Chambers as probably the best contender right now unless Arreola comes in great shape against and beats Mccline he will be a huge player in the division and a potential champion at some point.Comment
