Yeah, Povetkin is the IBF mandatory and Chambers is now the WBO mandatory. Klitschko/Povetkin will happen first, likely in September.

Plus, he's supposedly getting his conditioning in gear.
Whatever, I'd much rather see Eddie in there against Arreola prior to fighting Wlad, as I don't think Wlad is a winable fight for him atm.
Plus, Arreola vs Chambers might generate some interest in the US.

If Arreola shows the same dedication to get into shape that Eddie did in this fight then I'll give him more props till then, he is still a fatty with a with a trainer who looks like he ate a midget.

I believe he was ashamed of himself after he watched footage of the Povetkin fight. If Povetkin had just beat him down that's one thing. Povetkin just exploited his conditioning though.
Let's not get our hopes up yet but Eddie might be attempting to capitalize on his gifts.
Maybe.

Ive actually been one of the guys saying it all along. If he had been in better shape he would have won that fight. I stated many times that Eddie could be really elite if he just wanted it, the thing is I never imagined him actually wanting it bad enough. This is a good sign, if he keeps it up who know....
