I think we're over estimating Eddie Chambers' talent level just a touch. Sure he's a solid defensive fighter but #1 he doesn't throw a lot of punches and #2 he doesn't have quick feet so he won't be able to run circles around Sam Peter.

Sam may edge out Eddie with a UD because #1 I have never really seen Eddie get hurt and #2 Eddie doesn't do enough work in the late rounds.

This is the perfect fight to get Sam back on track, he needs to use the jab, keep Eddie at a distance for the early rounds and then pour on the pressure late.


Cris Arreola hasn't really impressed me all that much, he's already been hurt, he's never been past 8 rounds, and I think he's in more danger of losing to an all around fighter like McCline than Sam Peter is in danger vs a one dimensional fighter like Chambers.
