    Dawson would make Williams look like a clubfighter.

      I would favour Williams to beat Dawson and Hopkins now

        McCline has not looked muscular since his steroid source got busted a few years ago. He use to look like Mr. Universe.

        Arreola will probably win but I'm not sure how far he can go if he lets himself go like that. These are professional athletes we are talking about after all.

          I've heard about it.

          He looked much better against Peter.

            yeah but the problem here is that Chambers' weight does not effect how he fights or his speed, the weight on Arreola effects his speed and how he fights big time. I criticised Eddie in the past 2, i feel he could be even better getting down lower and watching what he eats. Eddie doesnt need to be at 225 for what he does. He's there to outbox you and not impose himself on the opponent, totally different of what Chris tries to do. Eddie can do the job even better while looking slimmer. Much like Chris Byrd did.

            The other problem is that Eddie Chambers is a fat man who's been fighting good fighters. Chris Arreola is just a fat man who's been fighting fighters, one of those limited fighters for couple of rounds at least showed that Chris' weight is a concern.

            You keep telling me it affects how he fights but I want an actual example of when it did that?

            And being compared to Chris Byrd isn't the greatest thing in the world since that guys biggest wins were Tua and past his prime Holyfield. He was a good HW but loing to Ibiachie and Wlad didn't make him look any better than calvin Brock in my eyes.

                Due to an injury that Vitali caused himself! Vitali was winning everysecond of that fight till he hurt his left hand.

                  And does it change the fact that Byrd won the fight

                      Lol at Flawless giving ZERO credit to Calzaghe for beating Hopkins, but full credit to Byrd, who might not have won a single round (like the judges gave him) in that fight.
