Final Eliminator: Povetkin vs. Chambers > Who wins & Let's Talk!!!

Alright fellas so Eddie just won a clear UD turns out it's a SD :( over Brock. Povetkin TKO'd Byrd in the 11th.

If the this fight so happens to come thru whos your pick and why?

I'd take Chambers in a ud. He's got good defense and counters well, at least against this slow poke Brock. Doesn't waste punches.

Povetkin for me I think, he's got to have some pedigree to beat an ageing Byrd, and I think he'll have more power to trouble Chambers than the other way around. However, if Chambers has a decent chin, he might just take the shots and keep coming.

In fact, can someone point me to the fence so I can plant my flag there. Really, what the heavies need is a really good exciting fight rather than one fighter to win emphatically.

cutmemick: you should make this into a poll....

povetkin by UD for me... chambers will stand in front of him, and povetkin will win a UD by work-rate and chamber's lack of footwork...

it should be a very entertaining fight though and either could win..

I'm leaning towards Povetkin

Povetkin is a better fighter all around imo. Chambers is faster and he has decent skill but he is not a big heavyweight. He is faster than Povetkin, but I think it will be a lot like the Povetkin-Byrd fight except it will go the distance. I like Povetkin by decision.

HArd to pick this one, I have to say Povetkin....He want stop trying or get discourage like Brock did.

If Chambers doesn't throw the jab more than he did against Brock- just throw more punches in general- he'll lose a decision.

Damn, I'm all by my lonesome on this prediction, which probably means I'm wrong again. But I'll stick with Eddie. No sig or cc bets though f#ckers ;D

Man i have no idea who would win this one....chambers style is just so odd for the heavyweight division and when he chooses to be aggresive his speed is too much, his unwillingness to stay aggresive for long periods of time and his lack of power worry me though. I guess i'd pick chambers on second thought.

After watching 7 Povetkin fights I am fully convinced that he will beat Eddie.

It's coming January 26th...Battle of undefeted heavyweights...Two future stars....

Povetkin 14-0 with 11ko's...

Chambers is 30-0 16ko's

Who will prevail...power or speed?

I personally go with the slick Chambers...He is on a roll of good opp...He ended Rossy's undefeated streak..The beat Guinn and Brock....

Everyone else?

Povetkin. UD.

I haven't seen Chambers yet,but even if I had I most probably still would go with Povetkin...
Just the fact that only in his 14th fight he'd already beaten someone like Byrd is very impressive to me...

But this is a Sauerland event so I just hope that there is not any f@cked up decision for Chambers,IF he is
the better man...

I probably should pick Povetkin but I'm gonna go with Chambers, I really like his style, so relaxed.

Gotta be busier though, he controlled Brock but he could have thoroughly dominated him if he had been busier, especially with the jab.
