    Chambers should move down to cruiserweight. He's a talented boxer, but klitschko will probably ruin him.

      Honestly, it's like I keep saying: it's going to take someone really well-rounded to beat a Klitschko brother, not just someone with certain qualities. Chambers is not going to get Klitschko's respect, regardless of how slick he is. Someone who has almost everything is going to need to come along to beat one of these brothers. Maybe it will take someone almost as good as Lennox to do it.

      The only other way to beat Wladimir [not Vitali] is to go in and blast him out early. Chambers cannot do that. That can only be done by a Corrie Sanders or a young Shannon Briggs type fighter. And even then, it's only an outside chance.

        Good to see you're finally starting to come around to recognizing the Klitschkos are very good heavyweights.

You watch Chambers, although he looks spectacular defensively, he never takes a defensive risk, his gloves are always in a position to block his head. Wladimir will be landing like one or two clean shots a round or probably none at all.


          Chambers might make Vitali miss a lot like Byrd did, but Wlad is deadly accurate and very good at anticipating his opponents' movements.

          Watch Wlad vs. Byrd I and II.

            I've never said they weren't, just that the people who are saying they're top 10 all time greats are going a bit too far based on who they have fought. And the bitching about the Lennox fight.

              It will be good to see Wlad back in the ring - it's been too long already.

                  He pulled out of both fights and instead fought David Haye, Alexander Povetkin also pulled out of a fight against Wladimir Klitschko last December. Eddie Chambers is the only contender so far who's willing to fight Wladimir Klitschko.

                    looks like they are waiting on vitali to get a little older.

                      We don't even need a poll for this...it will be back to business for Wladimir. Johnson and Chambers have no chance.
