I like Eddie and he is willing to fight anybody which is a great attitude,

I hope somebody decent thinks they can beat him and he gets the chance for a big fight again,,

is there any heavyweights with a decent ranking that would fight eddie?

I don't know if he has a promotional contract, but I think he's managed by Peter Fury, who's got him onto a few shows recently and he's on the Fury-Chisora undercard next month.

He won't fight Thompson yet but needs a world top 30 opponent really. I rate Chambers just don't know how far size will count against him at the very top but he has a lot of talent.

I'd like to see a Haye-Chambers fight but I suppose there's fat chance and it's below 'Haye retiring for good' on my wish list anyway. I just hope somebody decent can be found for Eddie's next fight - seems a waste of a talented boxer otherwise.

I think it would be a very interesting matchup but I don't see Haye taking it and I imagine the Furys (Chambers' handlers) wouldn't trust Haye again.

I'm sure they would rather Chambers stay on his exciting current career progression, fighting Eastern European journeymen

I just finished reading Eric Armit's excellent 'Behind the Results' and it sounds like the Tiger might have lost his teeth. He lost a wide decision to Carlos Takam last Friday - the guy who drew with Mike Perez. I saw a few 'highlights' and Thompson did indeed look terrible. Even at his best his style is lethargic but against Takam he reminded me of the Somnambulist from the classic German expressionist film 'The Cabinet of Dr Caligari.'

Double bow, one for being a reader of Eric's stuff & the second for the German Expressionist reference.

Lucas Browne is scheduled to fight on Gavin Bundu card Chambers is an ideal opponent. About time Eddie had a proper fight under Peter Fury

@Naandrew....Browne v Chambers could be a nice one, hope that happens!

I am a big fan of Lucas - a seriously big lump who can fight a bit and who has got the kind of power that allows him to end fights that could get tricky for him - and I think it would be good to see how he dealt with Fast Eddie.

Nice mash-up of abilities, Chambers brings the speed and movement, Browne brings the brute strength and the bombs.
