The only way Wlad would beat him is by snatching a points win. Other than that, Vitali all the way imo.
Prime for Prime.. Vitali would smash Wlad He has better defense(very good at making people miss) Higher Workrate More varied offense Much better chin and toughness Warrior/badass mentality (you can almost be sure that Vitali wouldnt allow Wlad to jab him to pieces, fight from the outside and choose the pace, he would pressure Wlad and make him uncomfortable)
