Why Eddie Will Expose Wlad (again)

not really.
Other than being dumb asses, why are you guys quoting the OP? Because other than the title and prediction, the analysis is solid.
Chambers had the fastest hands and reflexes Wlad has ever faced. He's the best defensive fighter Wlad's ever faced. He's one of Wlad's strongest opponents. He peeled off Wlad when he clinched a few times. And he constantly smacked his pawing left hand with left hooks.
So most of what I posted is true, it's just that all those attributes didn't mean **** in the grand scheme, lol.
Didn't happen. Klitschko's handspeed was equal to if not better than Eddie's and you could make a case for saying that Chagaev, Ibragimov, Brewster, Brock, Byrd, Sander, Mccline, Jefferson handspeed were all in a similar league.I see some are saying "Oh wow, Wlad looks so much bigger than Chambers, he's gonna destroy him." Well, boys and girls, boxing doesn't work like that. I will post why the title will be true.
Speed - Eddie will have the fastest hand and reflexes Wlad has ever seen. Chambers fast hands will give Klitschko the most problems and make him tentative to throw. Don't expect Wlad to start fast.
Along with Byrd yup. Still didn't present any problem for him though.
Chambers strength was nothing special. A LHW could lift and use a doubleleg takedown on him like Eddie did, that doesn't = strength. Even with Conte PED'sStrength - Eddie will be the strongest fighter Wlad has faced since Peter. Most of y'all are gonna be like "What? This guy doesn't know ****". But honestly, when was the last time one of you watched and analyzed each of their fights against Peter? Did you compare Wlad and Eddie's strength? Did you see how Peter would toss Wlad with every shot he landed? Did you see the same with Chambers?
Klitschko didn't hold that much but when he wanted to he had no problem doing soStyle - Eddie carries a high guard that will help him peel off Wlad when he goes to hold. If Wlad starts pawing with his left hand to stop Eddie from coming in, he will catch a left hook to his glove that will make him not want to do it for a while. Styles make fights, this will not be the type of pawing match Wlad has with every southpaw he faces (Byrd, Ibragimov, Chagaev). I'm not even gonna go into how much Eddie's jab, body work, lateral movement, and pressure will bother Wlad.
Chambers threw his left hook at Klitschko's left a handful of times but it didn't do anything to deter Klitschko from jabbing or measuring with it. He dominated Eddie with his jab.
Eddie landed virtually no body shots and the couple he did certainly didn't do anything.
His footwork was nothing impressive, Klitschko chased him around the ring like he has to with almost everyone.
Eddie didn't 'pressure' him at all.
He presented nothing out of the ordinary.Eddie will do things Wlad has seldom seen before in the pro ranks at a high level. Chambers will win, if he "loses" it'll look a lot like Cotto-Clottey. Yes, whether Chambers wins will depend on how much he moves his hands because he's gonna have to clearly win 8-9 rounds to come away with a decision.
A combination of overestimating Wlad and underestimating Chambers is going on here, Eddie will have to either knock it'll be fun watching my prediction come true tomorrow. Bump this after the fight.
didn't look anything like cotto-clottey
most of your points were completely contrary to what actually unfolded.Last edited by Mikhnienko; 03-21-2010, 12:45 AM.Comment
