Wladimir is the best heavyweight and is the true champ. Used to prefer his brother but Wlad has grown on me and these days I enjoy watching him. He's always frustrating to watch, even when he's aggressive like in the Wach fight, you still feel like he could step it up. Still, he does what he needs to do to win, has good speed and ridiculous power. Love the sound when he connects with a right hand, "thwack!". Beautiful one-two he has.

The heavyweight division may be poor atm but without the Klits it would be worse not better. We'd just have inferior fighters taking the belts. People might perceive these fighters to be better than they are because they have all the belts, but that's all. All these heavies complain about the klits being boring and ruining the divison, but what the fuck are they doing about it? Some of them can't even be bothered to get in shape, and come in the ring with titties and rolls of flab, yet have the nerve to have a pop at the brothers. It's not the klit's fault these guys are too fat, and it's not the klit's fault these guys are just not good enough. Absolute clowns. We're talking about guys who are considered some of the better fighters in the heavyweight divison. Guys like Chisora and Arreola. Even these guys aren't in shape, have had world title shots and even then come into the ring too heavy. The rest are either too small, too inexperienced, too old, or too busy eating kangaroo dick in some jungle. No one is stopping these guys, apart from their own lack of ambition/ability. Fury is the only guy that excites me, but his time will come later. Never been a fan of David Haye, but the guy is in good shape, and rarely in a bad fight so hopefully the cunt can spend more time fighting and less time on his silly smart phone apps. It'll be good to have the fool back.

I would consider it vacant.

The two best fighters choose (rightly) not to fight each other post Lewis, thus until one brother retires, and the other meets the best available opposition or the very unlikely scenario of Lewis coming back, the title remains vacant.

Aye, I've just spoken with Volo and he says that's what worries him. He'll be damned if he's going to sit back and have you strip him of your title. The IBF or Ring is one thing but ain't nobody got time for that.

Would rather watch a dog lick its balls than watch either of them. The sooner they're both gone the sooner the heavyweight division can rise from the grave again.

Not even close. In 20 years time people wil remember Vitali simply as Wladimir Klitchko's less successful brother.
