I don't think Chambers will stop him, Guinn is a tough guy....he just isn't active enough to win vs any true contenders. Guinn also has good power it's a damn shame all his talents go to waste.Quote:

I'm surprised this many people are predicting Guinn. No disrespect to Guinn, he's a good fighter in his own right but he isn't very slow, he has power but he doesn't throw half as much as he should and he's been hit. Chambers on the other hand is so relaxed in the pocket, makes his punches worth his money and he's slick. I see Guinn maybe winning 2 or 3 rounds but not much more then that.
This has Friday Night Fights written all over it. Should be a nice lil appetizer before the big fight on the 5th.
Good little fight, definetly. Eddie Chambers reminds me alot of James Toney. Really similar style, very relaxed, loves to mix it up in the pocket... Unfortunately, he seems to have the same obstacles preventing him from beating the best, and to even more of a degree than Toney imo... He's really small, looks flabby at 210 or whatever, and has very little power.. Him fighting Guinn should be a great measure of what he can do though, assuming Guinn shows up determined to win, which he very likely will. . He seemed to at least be taking his career and training seriously based on his last fight.
Chambers really is just a blown up cruise-weight like Chris Byrd. Muscles dont make good fighters, but he could use a few crunches dont get me wrong.....Look at Shannon Briggs hes cut like a bodybuilder, but hes becomes a turtle half way through. I am just really pulling for a undersized heavy to come in and clean up the heavyweights and teach them how to box.But one huge bomb lands and there goes my dream.....Otherwise Wlad is the only hope he showed some promise his last fight, what we got to see at least.Then one huge bomb lands on him and there goes that....
That is true....I thought Chambers had good conditioning vs Rossy to be in as bad of asthetic shape as he was in.
I would like to see Chambers-Brock
Yeah chambers seems to be able to throw enough shots, well abviously he does because he's stopping guys even though he don't hit that hard.
He's not quite Chris Byrd, not quite James Toney but he should shake things up at Heavyweight.
It would be nice if he didn't have to fight the 240+ guys though ::**
Dominick Guinn by UD...not going to be a easy fight for him, but I have confidence that he can pull it off with an impressive win.
CC man I was actually hoping you would come back and post. You seen Dominick lately? How's he looking? If Dominick had more of a fire about him he would be a really good heavyweight. But he always seems disinterested. How's he looking at this?Quote:

Man he looks good in training, we were down there to Houston about 2 weeks ago visiting and him and Holyfield have the same trainer Ronnie Sheilds and he looked really good, he said that they are working on doing a bit more damage in the inside not just against Eddie but anybody, he told me that he really needs to work on when he hurts somebody with a good left or right hook to not let up and to keep swinging. So we should see a good fight comes May 4th I'll be there because we are going to the Oscar vs Dela on the 5th. So expect a more busy Dominick, if he fights like he did when he faught A-Force it is no question that he can pull it off, but if he goes in and fight like he did with Tony T., he is going to have a hell of a night. We'll see come May 4th O0Quote:

Guinn is like Judah, you never know which personality will show up. The fighter or the one who doesn't want to fight anymore. No such problems with Eddie who will stop Guinn around the 8th.
Its official, Dominick Guinn Vs. Eddie Chambers is going to take place the day before the "big one" in Vegas. The fight is gonna be at the Palms, and shown on ShoBox. saturday night. Undercard is up an coming heavies Arreola and another prospect whose name I forgot...I really thought this would be friday night fight, too bad I dont have showtime...I think Eddie is gonna take this one, and line himself for a title shot in the near future.
