Eddie should have insisted on Olympic style drug testing.
This is his chance to become an American HERO. Unfortunately it probably won't happen. Next heavyweight with a chance to be an American HERO: David Haye.

hell no, this fight is gonna be boring as hell.
If these guys were Welterweights fighting, this shit wouldn't even be broadcasted.
I honestly think guys like Brewster, Peters, Ibragimov, Chagaev, CHambers, Brock wouldn't be bad fighters in the heavyweight division in any era. I think they all would have had the potential to make it to the top 10 of any era of boxing, but some of them likes Peters would have had to have been more focused or in the same shape as he was when he faced Wladimir or better.
I think Wladimir gets flack for dominating them, but I honestly don't think very many of the all-time greats would have dominated these guys the same way. Chagaev and Ibrigamov are quick, well schooled, tough boxers. Peters(when he was 240 or less) was quick handed, tough beard, and tough to beat. Chambers has incredibly fast hands and he has a really good guard, but I think he has the same problems Clottey has against top opposition. Brock was an awkward guy like Norton and I think he would have given the boxers of the past a hard time and the sluggers would have destroyed him.
Its hard to get excited about this fight when youve seen Wvlad box before. He is as exciting to watch as staring at paint dry and his opponent has all the ambition as a man on death row. Chambers just has the look of a Thompson or Johnson who will turn up, try to survive then give up.
Hayes bringing it whoever he fights. He was too cautious vs Valuev but I can forgive 1 boring fight. All Wvlads fights though are boring so until they fight each other I think I might give Saturday night a miss.
