Wladimir Klitschko TKO 12 Eddie Chambers TIME: 2:55
Wladimir Klitschko dominated from start to finish to finish off challenger Eddie Chambers. He won every single round behind his jab and effective aggressiveness. Eddie felt his power early and decided it wasn't worth it to open up until the last round. He reminded me of Joshua Clottey the way he was covering up and not bringing the fight to the champ. When Chambers thought it was safe to open up a little in the last round he got caught with a very hard left hook that ended the fight. Chambers went down in a slump, like a sack of potatoes and stayed there for over 2 minutes. Every challenger that steps before Wladimir says it is going to be different with them. It ends Every time with same result the challenger looking bad and Wladimir victorious. Even though he fought in front of a staggering 51,000 people in Germany he still is not loved in America. I don't get it are Americans attentions spans that short that they can't recognize a dominant champion? The American public needs to stop hating on the Ukrainian giant and give him the respect he deserves. He has destroyed every American challenger he has faced and still he gets no love. He wins and when he wins he wins every round in dominating fashion. I enjoy watching him fight and have no problem shelling out money and sitting in from of my computer all night. He may look robotic and have a dull style to the casual boxing fan, but that is who he is. Since he has employed the services of Emanuel Steward he has been molded into a totally different fighter. He now fights like a big man, using his height, and fighting behind his jab. This style has been sort of a crutch for the dominant champion. It allows him to be less aggressive and fuels his cautious nature. Mnnay gets frustrated with his heavyweight student because he wants him to get the credit his so well deserves for being such a dominate champion. Even tonight he scolded Wladimir for not being more aggressive and being too content just to win. Manny said "We don't need another bullshit decision". It worked tonight, but until he can have a string of highlight reel knockouts he will never be loved by the demanding American public.
