I don't particularly care for either brother, although I am not as harsh on them as many here are. I agree that they and their era is boring, but they are also very good and ultimately will be remembered that way! BUT I am so sick of thread like Holyfield vs the Klits (just an example), nearly everytime one of them is brough up the other is compared in their...I don't get this...Their style really are not very similar? So do you feel they are the same person??? Why are they constantly brought up together???
For super + hw's their styles couldn't be much more different. Before Steward and Vitali's retirement they had more similarities. As a persons Vitali is more of an EE and Wlad is a 'world citizen'.
It really does them a disservice. Especially Vitali. People say they are boring. I really don't think I can recall Vitali fights that are boring. Vitali Briggs... It was action packed.. one sided but action packed. Same with Arreola. Kevin the king pin ran all night but that's not Vitali's fault.
I agree with you. It's ****ing stupid. I'm a huge fan of Vitali, but not Wlad. Their styles and skillsets are very different.
I'm am so sick myself also! They are different! Man that makes me mad!!!! Like right now!!! jUST the thought of it!!! DAMN!!!! :fire
Do you guys remember the thread were one poster talked about how great their combined record was as if they were one person? It was beyong ridiculous.
They are very different, but the fact still stands with probably all current heavyweights, and very likely past aswell - if you can't beat Wlad, you won't beat Vitali. I do agree however it can be annoying.
I'm a Klitschko fan, that being said they may as well be the same person. They are not gonna fight each other, they have also worked as a team to clean out the division. So if people act like their one person, I understand.......
The problem I personally have with all of this is the following: - When Wlad beats somebody, Vitali gets credit for it. - When Vitali beats somebody, Wlad gets credit for it. - When one of them loses, the fans make up the weirdest excuses. Imagine Tyson and Lewis had played this game. I know they are not related, but this doesn't make a difference as boxing is an individual's sport. Tyson would have lost to Holyfield and Lewis would have taken revenge for him (see Puritty, Byrd, Sanders). Seriously, it's GAY.
