    Vitali is far trickier defensively than Wlad, he's mobile
    and not a sitting target, he throws long shots then moves,
    Vitali beats Joshua for the same reason I think Fury does.

    Lol! This :deal:

    Vitali beats up bubble gut and stops him late. He'd also eat Joshua's uppercut without flinching.

    Yes the real question that should be asked, is how badly would Vitali mutilate Joshua?

    6'7 of pure Ukrainian steel, with the iron chin, power and awkwardness in both hands, against a robotic flat footed bully who's only weapons are a right cross and an uppercut that would only make Vitali flinch for only a second before he resumes the demolition job.

    Vitali's whole reputation is built off of a losing effort against an aging boxer. Funny how ordinary he looked when matched up against a man his size compared to the fat midget he made his carrier clobbering.

    Joshua is capable of throwing 17 punch combos to 3 punch blistering ones...Lewis did not have Joshua's speed ,and at 240 plus the comparison in speed dwindles more.Wlad punch for punch was faster slightly back in the day but considering combos?No,i havent seen anyone at Hw over 230 throw like Joshua.

    They both maxxed at about the same level, vitali against fat 6round sam peter and retired 38 year old failure sanders (another fatso), Whereas joshua has beaten 41 year wlad and prime charles martin (international level nobody).

    Vitali brings toughness, movement and crude clubbing to the table, joshua dedication, stiffness and fairly good offensive skills.

    pretty even contest.

    Joshua doesn't have the chin or height and reach advantage. So it's not even, Vitali holds those advantages and would cull Joshua over 12 rounds.

    A 41 year old Wladimir took him to the brink, a prime Vitali would take him over the edge of the cliff

    I would take Vitali. His style is awkward as **** for anyone in any match up.

    Vitali would bust him up and stop him somewhere before the 10th. Vitali was also physically stronger than Wlad and was just naturally more of a 'fighter'. Lewis and Sanders both cracked harder than Joshua and they didn't even come close to knocking Vitali out.

    Wladimir and Vitali are of the same blood, and Vitali happens to be the superior natural born fighter. The fact that we are talking about a prime Vitali against a prime Joshua, all we have to do is compare how he struggled against Vitali's lesser brother who was at the end of his career to know how he would have dealt with AJ.

    Vitali would have painted his face to how he painted Shannon Briggs face who hit just as hard as AJ in his prime.
