He is actually considered a lighter hitter though in reality his power may be a bit underrated. The chances of him stopping Wladdy are slim as he is not a big puncher and naturally is a CW. I think this will look like Wlad's fights with Byrd.Last edited by Spray_resistant; 01-04-2010, 01:22 PM.Comment

No decision option for either fighter? TBH, I see this fight going the distance regardless of who wins. I give Eddie a decent chance... although I can't say I've fully embraced his decision to go stale while waiting for a title shot.
Wlad will be coming off a break of 9 months, much of which will have been spent on injury rehab. Eddie should've taken a tune-up in between, rather than willingly sit out for nearly just as long.Comment

I have Wlad winning most rounds by UD, but each round very close because of the lack of punches. Eddie has a good style for a heavyweight of today but he doesn't hurt like a Tyson and wait a little too long for me after each burst. He will make Klit look very flat footed and most of the power shots won't come out.
Eddie will find it hard to get through, and Wlad will find it hard to counter and start pawing/jabbing.
I'll be damn surprised if Eddie can win, but I don't think he will lose by a KO/TKO. I predict a fairly boring figh but admire both as boxers, just not beasts.Comment

3 of Wlad's last 4 fights have been against southpaws. I think against Eddie that you will see his jab back in action, though Chambers should be able to block most of them with his guard. Hopefully Eddie comes in light so that he can be effective in the later rounds, and if he can consistently counter off the jab, he'll become a very live dog in this one.Comment

Chambers has shown a lot of improvements lately with a good win over Peter and an excellent dominant win over Dimitrenko.
If he can continue that unexpected rise in performance-level, he'll be a very tough fight for Wlad.
I hope that it's only a coincidence, that Chambers sudden rise to glory comes at the same time as he started coorporating with the criminal scumbag and former CEO of BALCO Victor Conte.Comment

Chambers is a counter puncher, but its hard to counter punch against Wlad because he never commits to anything, he fights with an extremely high concentration because of his poor chin, so if you do leave yourself open or over extend yourself he is switched on to react to it, plus he can punch.
Chambers is gonna have to be the aggressor to have any chance of winning this fight, if he tries to box, use his legs and pick his spots it will look like he is running from Wlad and being too negative, thus meaning he will more than likely drop a decision. Wlad wont give up his advantages (his height) so Chambers is going to have to adopt an approach that does not suit his style or personality, that is why he wont win imo, he does not have enough mental strength and enough dog in him.
Its okay doing it against the much inferior Dimitrenko but......Comment
