    Dont get me wrong...there is no match I would much rather see than Klitschko v Klitschko. And so far I'm the only Ukrainian that wants to see this (most of my countrymen are horrified at the idea of one Ukrainian brother putting a hand on the other). And I truly believe that they would give at least 80% of power into their powerpunches. Even without a 100% this would still be competitive enough than anything else. And the $$$ would be tremendous.

    But, a promise, especially to one's mom, means more to some people than to you. And I respect that.

    How can two very powerful boxers who happen to be brothers be ruining boxing? Why, just because they refuse to fight each other? At most, what it does is put a new twist on the sport, and will foreve be talked about. They might never reach top ten boxers, but nonetheless they will be remembered for their sibling twist that they brought to the Heavyweight division.

    I could care less if they get in the ring or not, because they wont be going at it a 100%. Wlads a boxer, Vitali is a fighter. If they would fight, my money would be on Wlad because Vitali wont be fighting with bad intentions and will more and likely get his ears boxed off.

    Where did I say that the Klitschko's are ruining boxing? I said the ABC titles are contributing to it. Quit trolling around.

    No, I think that's your 40s. Ask Hopkins, he knows.

    I don't know that Ring mag could officially cite them as such, but we all think of them that way. And in 5 years or less, it will be over. So I'm fine with it right now. It's a unique event in history. But I'm also grateful that they didn't achieve their goal in 2003 with the Brewster and Lewis fights. Imagine then - &if Vitali had had no injury - that they would've been the top two dogs from 2003 until 2010 or beyond. That would've been too much of a stalemate in the division, but 2 or 3 years is just about right. And count me as one who does not want to see them fight each other.
