    I understand people lumping them together when talking about "team Klitschko". But I'm talking about their fighting styles. People call them both boring, as if they're the same types of fighters. Yes, Wlad is boring, but Vitali is a fairly exciting fighter.

    I can't remember what he said about Peter, but Peter was humbling and gave him his dues post-fight and Vitali mocked him shortly after.

    After the Lewis fight was stopped and he calmed down a bit, he started jumping up on the burn buckles with his hands in the air cheering and did it for ****ing ages.

    Like I said, class-less piece of ****.

    Yep, and after Sanders battered Wlad, Vitali got aggressive in the ring with Sanders.

    Wlad is a gentleman but Vitali is classless.

    I believe what Vitali said was that Peter should put dirty diapers on his face to help deal with the swelling.

    I personally don't think Vitali is all that bad. In fact I think it's a tad hypocritical when people bash Wlad for being conservative (in terms of personality) but then hate on Vitali for being brash and arrogant.

    Not you Tommy but others do it.

    Vitali said the he and his brother wanted to bring the belts back to his family, and Sanders slapped Vitali in the face for ****'s sake.:lol: Vitali didn't even slap him back.. until they got into the ring of course.

    Probably the same reason their fans take them two for one as well...

    Suppose Wlad is more active so his shortcomings rub off on Vit a bit more than they should maybe.

    Maybe if Vit had more fights Wlad wouldn't have the glass-jawed robot image that he has.

    As long as there is this 'team Klitschko' BS then what one does will afect the way people think of the other.

    Anyway, VK might be more exciting than his brother but he's still not exactly prime Tyson to watch.

    It's pretty obvious if you're a fan of one, you're a fan of both. Nothing wrong with it either, no need to get defensive.

    Well what he did say? Either back it up or don't accuse him of bull****.

    So ****ing what? That was just his way of "protesting" the stoppage. What do you think your beloved Haye would've done if he was winning over Vitali on points, but the fight was stopped due to injury? Haye would be running around the ring with his UK flag, as if he just won. And yet, you would've still be saying how awesome Haye is.

    Bottom line is all your problems with Vitali, whether legitimate or not, are personal. I don't care about that. I'm talking about his fighting style being unfairly lumped together with his brother's. If you like to see knockouts, Vitali is anything but boring.

    You can be a fan of both fighters without taking them 2 for 1, and acting like they are the same fighter.

    :lol:

    Vitali was telling Peter's manager what a big mouthed joke he is and that he just made his fighter quit.

    :|:|:| Vitali Klitschko is classless because he does not put up with any ****. :lol:

    Tommy, maybe you need to follow Ice Skating or Badminton you know one of those types of sports. Leave Boxing to the adults.
