i enjoyed chambers dimitrenko,but...

[The_Demon]

i think it says alot about the state of the HW division today,chambers impressed me with his willingness to fight but i could never see the hype with dimitrenko-the fight was more entertaining than any of wlads recent outings but if these r the type of guys who he will be defending against in the future-dont expect to be entertained

All I can say is, having missed any threads on the fight due to only watching it today, that I was gutted about Sascha's poor showing on the night... Well, downright shocked actually. At the very least, I feel as though I can take consolation in the fact that he's young and didn't allow himself to be stopped. I'm not like these fickle twats who go all-out ****ting on a prospect after a bad night (i.e. Khan, Ortiz), so whenever he decides to bounce back I'll still be a firm supporter.

As for Chambers, he impressed me majorly. I already liked him after the Peter fight. His handspeed, for a HW, is refreshing to see - the 'Fast' moniker ain't wrong, for sure - but I don't think he'll give Wlad any trouble next year. If he moved more and didn't stay planted in one spot, he'd at least look better than Chagaev, but I don't see him landing anything great unless he presses the issue and takes a risk to get in close (which is what Haye could never possibly pull off). Even then, he'd only get picked off by that jab and be given a "pizzaface" on the way in.

I still think HW boxing is just fine. I don't agree with all the doom & gloom being spouted off. Oh, and Chambers will make Arreola look pathetic. :box2:

i totally agree with that

[Bigdaddy_Vh]

not to discredit Chambers' win b/c it was a good one, but Dimintrenko proved how worthless he was in this fight. IMO eddie ought to lose the other 8 pounds and fight at cruiser. 208 is WAY to small to fight against Wlad. and anything much heavier is too fat for chambers. Chris byrd syndrome

[STILL_DETOX]

yea he was impressive , but does he have wat it takes to defeat the klits? no

[Dubious-Dutch]

I think Sasha threw the fight.

exactly, i said it right after the fight. when i first saw it (not live) after the first 2 rounds i fast forward to the twelfth waiting for Chambers to be UDed by Dimitrenko and after Chambers got the nod i knew there must have been KDs in the fight so it wasn't so bad but their styles are as boring as Wlad and the rest of them Heavies.
