    That's all I'm saying. Chambers deserves credit for that much.

    If Pulev decided to just go straight to Wlad I don't have a problem with that. But if not then Eddie would be a good fight for him in the mean time.

      Pulev, as I explain now for the third fourth time, doesn't need to fight a guy like Chambers, as he really has little reason to at this stage in his career.

      As to why you bring Haye into this argument, I don't know. There are different fighters and situations, you know.

      You seem to have some angry agenda going on. My advise, switch off your computer and get some rest. You need it.
      Of course Pulev doesn't need to fight Chambers, but its the EXACT same thing as Klitschko-Chisora. You're the only one who doesn't see this because of your double standard. And Haye may be a different fighter, but again, its the same situation. He's in a position because of his popularity to fight whoever he pleases. Yet you think he should be forced to fight certain fighters before being deserving of fights with others. That's another double standard. And what exactly is my "angry agenda"? Your agenda is obviously to support eastern European fighters and detract from Americans and other you don't like. Every one of your posts drips with it, and you're blinded by your own double standards and biases.

        Exactly. Some people just don't seem to get this.

          When's the last time Eddie Chambers won a meaningful fight? Chambers is almost as overrated on this forum is as Solis.

          Chambers looked good years ago when he beat Alexander Dimitrenko but really hasn't done **** since.

            Id say he was pretty impressive getting robbed against Adamek while only having one arm after the first round.

            Oh, and Derek Rossey was an IBF Eliminator.

              It wasn't an impressive victory or defeat IMO. Chambers had some good counter shots but he fought too tentatively for most of the fight (for my liking)

                Fighting with one arm for an entire fight and arguably being robbed wasn't impressive to you? Lol, ok. He beat Rossey in an Eliminator the fight before that. Its obvious he presents problems for many fighters. If Pulev took that fight it would be a good test for him. Why wouldnt you want one top heavyweight to get in the ring with another top heavyweight? Would that help weaken or strengthen the division in your opinion?

                  Eddie Chambers is not a top hw that's why. And Derick is a fringe contender at best and more of a journeyman IMO. Eddie Chambers went 12 boring rounds against Rossy when earlier in his career he was able to KO him easily.

                  I would support a Pulev-Chambers fight but I'm not act like it's a huge step up for Pulev. In fact, I think Pulev would handle Chambers rather easily. He's got the size, the skills and will to beat him.

                    The point is that Pulev is this supposedly feared, young, up-and-coming heavyweight that Adamek declined to fight. Even though it would have gotten him a shot at Klitschko if he won.

                    Chambers on the other hand has no problem at all fighting Pulev and is openly asking for that fight. He's not scared in the least.

                      If Chambers isn't a top heavyweight and he did as well against a "top heavyweight " in Adamek as he did with one arm, what does that say of the division as a whole? its nice you would support a Chambers-Pulev fight though it certainly doesnt show by you questioning him. Chambers should be applauded for looking to take on the best fighters that his supposed conquerer Adamek has shamelessly ducked.
