Wladimir Klitschko set to defend against Chambers on March 20!

Boxingchronicles.com has now learned from various sources that heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko is set to defend his title against American challenger Eddie Chambers on March 20. 

Following his lone loss [unanimous decision] to fellow heavyweight contender Alexander Povetkin in December of 2007, Chambers has posted some impressive wins over the likes of former WBC heavyweight champion Samuel Peter as well as previously undefeated Alexander Dimitrenko.  Chambers won a unanimous decision over Peter this past March, followed by a majority decision over Dimitrenko this past July.  The win over Dimitrenko, which took place in Germany, was a WBO title eliminator that earned Chambers a shot at Klitschko.  Klitschko's last outting was in June against Ruslan Chagaev, whom he stopped in 10 rounds.  The title fight will likely be televised by HBO. 

Hopefully Fast Eddie of Philadelphia is able to compete like a Philadelphia fighter and pose a greater challenge to Wladmir, which would be the polar opposite of the pathetic display that we all wish we hadn't witnessed from Kevin Johnson against Vitali this past weekend.
