Klitschko-Chambers this weekend, anyone else excited?

[Taeth]

I know Wladimir is almos assuredly going to win, but I hope I am not the only one who appreciates how good he is. I think what he has done since losing to Lamont Brewster has been absolutely amazing. You take a guy with such a glaring vulnerability and he is able to cover it up against legitimate opponents time after time with his amazing skills is... amazing. I know Larry Holmes had an amazing jab, but I have honestly not seen a better jab than Wlad's at any weight class, not only is it quick but its strong enough to knock a 240 puncher onto their heels. It has pin point accuracy and it totally controls a fight. I know lots of people find it boring but this IMO will show the difference between Wlad and other big fighters. Chambers absolutely had his way with a quick and skilled boxer in 6'7 Dimitrenko. He was able to maneuver his way onto the inside, he countered from the outside and dazzled a good opponent, but Wlad's footwork, ring generalship and power is a different ball game.

... I just wish HBO was covering this.

I am excited. I am not sure how chambers can win, but I will be rooting for him.

If he did pull the upset, it would be a good injection of excitement into the heavyweight division.

I really hope Chambers can pull this off. I'm gonna be out on Saturday night when it's on, so will probably have to download it the next day without finding out the result if I can.

I actually really like Wlad, prefer him by far to his brother. What amazes me is how much shit he gets compared to Vitali, when he's the one who seems more determined to take on the best opposition available. Since that awful fight against Ibragimov, he's tried to fight Povetkin & Haye, taken on Rahman & Chagaev at short notice & now he's gonna fight the best American rather than taking on prospects & guys who've been stopped by Zuri Lawrence.

Still I really hope Chambers can do it. There was a piece this week by Bill Dettloff to Jimmy Young ahead of the Foreman fight & whilst I doubt that Chambers is as good as Young, I really think he has more of a chance than any of the other guys who've recently fought a Klitschko. Still not much.

Will be about as exciting as a samuel peter-oleg maskaev burger bar eat off

I`ll watch purely for its value to boxing. But im already fully aware of the tiresome script

I'll only watch if there is a burger bar eat off on the undercard.

I have to try to watch this and hope for an upset. It's the first Saddoboxing title defense in history..................

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Too many fights are slipping under my radar... Thanks for the update Teath.

I'm VERY excited about this fight. Two of the best in the division... That's interesting enough for me. I have my doubts about the clash of styles but two tactical guys can make a fight go either way... I'm all eyes.

Shit, I almost forgot about this fight. That's the sad state of the HW division when it's being put on internet PPV and it's for the legitimate HW crown.

I'm one of the few american's that have no problem with either of the klitschko's. Not thier fault that thier competetion has been crappy. No need to put unecessary damage on your body when you can jab your way though these chumps and get the same belt and same money....that being said chambers is another one of those chumps. He couldn't handle the pressure of povetkin but he thinks he can beat one of these two !! Yea right good fuckin luck. I wouldn't even take off my warm up's if i were wlad. So excited no. I can watch any of the past 10 fights they've been in to see the same garbage you're gonna see this weekend. I'm actually glad they are not wasting money to invest in this fight. That money could be better served on almost any other match. I can see haye maybe making a fight worth watching but even that dude is a cack and talks way way more than he fights. He's good at making t shirts and pissing off guys till they actually get mad and pay him attention then out with the excuses. I think clottey stole his last bubble stomach one so who know what haye will say next. Sorry to klitschlko fans in the u.s. But outside of maybe 10 or so of us the reality is no one really cares. wlad will win easy like he always does and people will bitch.....then next fighter and repeat.

His resume isn't even as good as Povetkin's or Chagaev's.

People's champ you say? How exciting was his fight against Valuev? Boring as f*ck (oooo my hand hurts)

[TitoFan]

Watching Wladimir Klitschko fights has become sort of like over-drinking for me. I know it's bad for me... and I suffer from a huge hangover the day after... and I swear I'll never do it again as long as I live... BUT...

... next time there's a party I go back and do it all over again.

[killersheep]

Anyone watching this? Mahone's corner threw the towel directly to the ref lol

[Kel]

That stoppage was fucking pathetic. The Sprott fight I mean.

Maybe a little quick but the guy in truth shouldn't of been in there as soon as he took the first shot he looked out of his depth, shocking undercard this.
