    Eddie says he fights at heavy because the money and talent is better then cruiser. He's fought Klitschko, the Alexander's, and now Adamek. I don't know if those purses are so much greater then Cunningham, Lebedev, and Huck. Whatever though, Eddie still got good talent.

      No, hes a guy who relies on speed, the lighter he is the better. He should consider moving down to cruiserweight, hes just no heavyweight. He will beat Adamek on points. Its interesting that the former LHW Adamek outweighs Chambers by over 20 pounds. Thats not suprising though, Adamek said after the Vitali-loss that he has to get bigger to compete with the big guys. But i think he will never be a big puncher at HW, no matter how much muscle he adds. If anything it will lower his conditioning/workrate. Especially against a small guy like Chambers i dont think it was a good idea by Adamek to weigh that much.

        Eddie looks in the best shape I've ever seen him.

        Adamek in good very good shape.

          202lbs is crazy! Man I am pumped for this fight. It's just like Adamek-Arreola; a real pick 'em!

            I dont think he looks fat, he looks in good shape but like i said he should fight at Cruiser. He could be THE man at Cruiser.

              Yeah I think he could be a force at cruiserweight which is brimming with talent.
              Afolabi, Huck, Chakhkiev, Hernandez, Masternak, etc I'd love to see fast Eddie in with some of those guys!

              Even the likes of Tarver, Kayode, Cunningham.

                  The last heavyweight I remember that weighted 202lbs was Holyfield when he fought against Bowe.

                  Yeah Chambers is a cruiserweight, but it's a little too late for him to drop down.

                      I feel like putting money on Chambers... but I feel like I'll be dissapointed.
