To give Dimitrenko some credit - it's nice to see him fighting familiar names throughout his career. & considering he's only 26 years old.... it's kind of impressive. Opposed to so many other eastern european heavies.
Names like: Krasniqi, Malcolm Tann (who at one point was getting alot of attention), vets like Julius Francis, Vaughn Bean, Ross Purity (When Dimitrenko was in his early 20s.... and these are the kind of fighters that you see other heavies FINALLY fighting after years of fighting nobodies to show that they are ready for the next step).
Sidon, Timo Hoffmann, Derric Rossy.
I haven't seen every one of these fights (hardly any) and I'm only going off of Dimitrenko's record. I'm not all that familiar with him, but it is refreshing to see this level of competition on his record.

Alexander Dimitrenko 253.5 vs Eddie Chambers 208.3
Susi Kentikian 111.7 vs Carolina Marcela Gutierrez Gaite 111.5
Alesia Graf 114.8 vs Terri Lynn Cruz 114.8
(WIBF/GBU junior bantamweight world championship)
Alexander Alekseev 199.9 vs Kendrick Releford 203.2
Marcel Meyerdiercks 126.7 vs Juan Garcia Martin 124.7
Krzysztof Cieslak 138.4 vs Suleyman Dag 136.2
Pablo Vasquez 149.9 vs Vasile Surcica TBA
208 is a great weight for Chambers, this means he is really in shape. Shame he doesn't want to lose a few more and fight at cruiser, but it is hard to pass up a heavyweight paycheck.
Fight starts in a few hours, hope some people can watch it live in Europe

I'm going for Chambers even though I don't particularly like watching him fight. But since he's from USA, and i've never seen Dimitrenko fight, i guess im rooting for him by default.
I hope Kendrick Releford beats Alekseev. I don't know shit about either guy, aside from Releford being a Fort Worth fighter. Rep yo block Releford, show him how its done in Funkytown!
Dimitrenko v Malcolm Tann is finally on youtube.
LOL. At 5:09 you can see some of Tann's wrestling experience kick when when he does a double leg take-down on Dimitrenko. Reminds me of when Couser dropped Tann. You'd think of a high school all-star wrestler who made it to state, that Tann could have stopped Couser from his drop.
