chambers due to his speed, i dont think a fighter like povetkin can match wlad in any department

Povetkin, at least in theory.
Chambers's style of staying on outside, behind the block and then trying to score a few in a surpise(in his mind) attack will be horrible against Wlad.
Povetkin, theoretically speaking, will try to get on the inside.

Povetkin, is slightly taller and has better power. He also beat Chambers, so that should count for something.

Eddie Chambers grins like a donkey everytime he gets hit when he didn't expect it.

He grinned a lot in the Dimitrenko fight and ate a lot of punches.

They will have to operate his grinning away after the Wlad fight.

Chambers has improved since the Povetkin fight, and I think he now would be the more difficult opponent. Eddie's also a more difficult style matchup IMO.

Povetkin is tailor-made for Wladimir, who will tee off on him until Povetkin goes down.

You forget one thing my friend: Wlad's suspect chin. If Povetkin gets a good start and throws the right kind of punch, we may get a reprise of the Corrie Sanders fight. But I doubt that Wlad will let it happen now, he's become deadly cautious.
