    I think Byrd gets hit a lot more than Chambers when he attempts to be aggressive. He is at his best fighting very defensively, which simply doesn't work against Wladimir as shown in their first fight. In their rematch Byrd tried to come forward and was landed on at will.

    Chambers is better at putting on pressure than Byrd, which means he might have a slightly better chance against Wladimir. Beating a Dimitrenko is far from beating Wladimir Klitschko though.

        Chambers improved

        Chambers actually landed about as much as Povetkin while Pot threw about twice as many punches. Chambers landed the better shots and would do better if they fought today. I hope Chambers chops Klitschko down. When he does I'll say tiiiiiiiiiiimber

          Also Chambers hits harder than Byrd and has a better offensive arsenal.

            Beat the **** out of him? At the end of the fight it was Povetkin's face that was bruised and swelling, not Chambers' face. And although I agree that Povetkin won clearly, 9-3 is a stretch - they landed almost the same number of punches as each other over the 12 rounds, although Povetkin threw a lot more. The scorecards were very biased in the opinion of most boxing writers. And that was a very lacklustre performance by Chambers, who has improved a lot since then.

              I felt neither Povetkin nor Chambers performed at their very best when they fought each other. A rematch to decide who gets chance to fight Wladimir would be ideal but I doubt it will happen since both of them have already been guaranteed a shot at the title.

              I guess we can only hope to see it after both have lost to Wladimir (or in case one of them upsets him which is unlikely).

                  And with no power, he's DEFINITELY not beating Wlad. Once Wlad punches through hif ******ed Winky Wright wanna be defense, he's going to do nothing but retreat.
                  Well hes actaully a better fighter than both wlad and vitali.. But i think they are just way too big.. its not there fualt though theres really nobody their size that can fight.. for their size theyre good but there are a lot of fighters who are better just not big enough...

                    I think that fight should be forced to be made. That's what I was thinking all along is for them two to fight for a shot at Wlad when he gets back so there isn't twp mandatories and plus I like Chambers a lot and want to see him avenge his loss.
