    because he absolutely smashed his way through a string of top ten ranked contenders and unified the entire division in a way not seen since probably sonny liston.

    Wlad is tough? If Vitali and Wlad ever fought there is only outcome: Wlad asleep on the floor. Not that Vitali would do that to his little brother.

    Wlad would box rings around Vitali. And I hate both of these fraudulent Ukrainian idiots. He's got a far superior jab in terms of speed, accuracy of variety, a far better right hand in terms of again speed, accuracy and power, far better timing with his power shots, he's more mobile, he ties up better inside, he's got a better left-hook, he's literally miles ahead of Vitali from a technical stand-point.

    Sorry but 1, I know every Klit-ite's going to say I'm a hater and whatever but if you actually look at his resume its next to ****. I'd say 1 maybe 3 if your generous.

    Perhaps due to defeating three heavyweight champions and taking their belts. Berbick, Pinklon Thomas and Tony Tucker, he destroyed the legit & highly respected Frank Bruno.
    The only blemish on Tysons career is not fighting Riddick Bowe or Holyfield when it really counted.

    Wlad has shown more toughness in the ring than Vitali. Vitali quit on his stool with 2 rounds to go while well ahead on all 3 cards vs a feather fisted cruiserweight in a world title fight! As Larry Merchant said, Vitali does not have the mentality of a champion.

    Dream on. Wlad is so much better in every department than Vitali. Wlad has better power in both hands, better arsenal of punches, better combinations, much better jab, much more mobile, much better fluid scientific boxing skills, better defense, better fighter in close.....The only outcome to me would be Vitali getting outclassed badly and getting either stopped late or losing a one sided decision.


    Vitali knows his brother is the much more talented of the two.

    The fight will never happen. I would back Vitali to beat Wlad 10 times out of 10

    only one was great larry holmes. that's one more great fighter tyson beat than vitali. infact when vitali got his shot at a past his prime great he got his face smashed in.

    the likes of berbick, ruddock, thomas, tucker, smith, bruno were good solid contenders.

    So you hate Vitali more than Wlad. A completely useless bit of information.

    A 39 year old Holmes is not a great boxer.

    If Vitali had beaten them they'd be bums not solid contenders.

    And then you add the fact that they were in-shape and not old when he beat them, can't say the same for Vitali's wins over his top 10 opposition (unless you count the Dancing destroyer of course who I'm not even sure was ranked top 10 by the Ring at the time)

    Correct, especially about PRIME Lewis
