Need to remember, too, that Chambers is quick, slick, and hard to put leather on. Very naturally talented kid that would be spectacular with more dedication to the sport.
I don't like the way people are dumping on Dimitrenko tonight.

I cant believe the bias in this post. Dimitrenko didnt look rusty, he was never in the fight! I was completely unbiased before watching this fight, namely because I was often annoyed by Chambers not working enough (especially against Povetkin), but Dimitrenko put in a cowardly performance.Dimitrenko could be better with a different trainer. I still believe he has potential. His promoter Universum kept him inactive, having him fight only once in the past year. That can prevent an up-and-comer from improving.
Chambers has a better promoter in Dan Goossen, who tries to keep all his younger fighters active.
Another boxer who fought today had a setback, namely Alexander Alexeev. But he came back with a good result today, stopping a boxer in Releford who went the distance with big men like Tye Fields and Chazz Witherspoon.
Let's not give up on Dimitrenko. I do wish he could get away from old Kohl and sign with Titov or Sauerland instead. But I think he still has the potential to win a world title someday!
He really couldnt take the bodyshots of a much smaller guy, and notably not a dangerous puncher. He pretended to be in a lot of pain for a low blow that was right on the beltline and he showed absolutely zero versatilly in trying to stick to the 1-2 even though he was getting tagged with flurries of combos.
If Dimitrenko is ever to fight Wlad he we will get KO'd early. Im sorry but nothing I saw tonight indicated that Dimitrenko was other than a hypejobComment

agree. Dimitrenko gets schooled by Ruiz, Valuev, Povetkin and Tony Thompson. doesnt stand a chance against the elite.I cant believe the bias in this post.

Chambers isn't going to get destroyed by Wlad. I think Wlad is till going to win. But I see Chambers putting up a better fight than anyone else has recently against Wlad. Way better than Chagaev. If he does good like he did tonight.Comment
