Eddie Chambers 213 vs Calvin Brock 241
(IBF heavyweight elimination bout: The winner of the 12-round bout will face 2004 Olympic Games gold medalist Alexander Povetkin for the right to challenge IBF heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko.)
Chambers: I have a lot of respect for Calvin and expect a pretty tough fight. But because I respect him doesn’t mean I am intimidated....he is not all that fast and that is one of the things I expect to take advantage of and will try to exploit. He may try and jump on me early, but I am ready for that or anything.
Brock: I really don’t see how he is going to beat me. He is undefeated, but I am not totally impressed....he is supposed to be quick. I think I am quicker.
