    Chambers beating a Klitschko would be the biggest heavyweight upset since Buster Douglas vs. Tyson.

      Eddie has a better than average shot tonight. Lotta size to overcome. Max Baer was 209 pounds when he whipped Primo Carneras 263 pound ass but Carnera was nowhere nearly as athletic as Wlad. Eddie COULD pull it off tonight, its just highly unlikely. I will be pulling for him though

        Chambers is going t give Wlad hell. I can't see him winning because his defense is all wrong for Wlad, but you really think he won't be able to land clean right hands and jabs? Wlad hasn't faced a guy with that much speed in a long time. It should be a good competitive fight at least.

          I give him a solid 3.5% chance of winning the fight, thats only if his team are smart enough to ut drugs in wlads drinks or somethin.

            My only hope for chambers is that Hayden has sapped Wlad of his precious bodily fluids in the lead up to this fight, thus draining his purity of essence.


            If she failed, Eddie's getting laid the **** out.

              Seeing as Chambers already has a loss to Povetkin, it would be a huge shock if he beat Wlad.

                Chambers isn't getting a decision over a Klitschko in Germany anyway.

                  Different Chambers that fought Povetkin. Eddie was handling him pretty good the first half of that one and then just shut down. Since then he's lost about 12 pounds and showed no sign of wearing down in the Dimitrenko fight.

                  How Chambers does depends entirely on how he deals with Wlad's jab. If he can time it and block 90+%, Wlad going to have a long night on his hands.

                    Yeah, I saw that. Quite an intimidating picture of the massive Wlad with all those belts and little Chambers with his fist...

                    I've never seen Chambers fight. A friend of mine has a large screen round his house and claims he can project this fight on to it, streamed from the net. So I'm gonna do a bit of Chambers Youtubing before the fight.

                    Hopefully he can give Wlad a fight but going by what most people think, he doesn't seem to stand much of a chance!

                      No money in the CW division.

                      Wlad wins this easily. Everyone keeps mentioning Eddie's speed, but he doesn't have the speed to get past Wlad's range and still land with thudding power while punching up 8 inches.
