    You cannot decision Wlad, therefore you need power. Chambers does not have enough of that so i don't see him winning.

His speed and intelligence overcomes natural aggression. There is nothing aggressive about Wladimir. I don't Wlad necessarily dominates him, but I don't see Chambers winning either. A rather boring UD for Wlad is this one in what truly turns out to be combat chess. As for Vitali, that's the one brother that Eddie has a good chance of beating. Vitali's age and Eddie's speed favors Mr. Chambers and his good defense and countering abilities and the stage both men are in their respective careers leads me to favor Chambers in that one. But in the case of Wlad versus Eddie, it's definitely Wlad.
      Klitschko is the favored and rightfully so, but Chambers is a live underdog. Chambers is going to close the distance in every possible way and unlike Wladimir's previous opponents (Byrd, Chagev, Peter, etc) I believe he will be successful in closing the distance and landing his shots.

        Sure, just not much of one.

            I'm a big Wladimir Klitschko fan but I would like see Eddie do well against him and make this fight, at least, somewhat competitive. To do this Eddie will have to: negotiate the distance (easier said than done) and land hard effective punches; also, Eddie has got to make this a fast paced fight and get Wlad out of his rhythm..
