If they fought now it would be a sparring contest with no intention to hurt. It would be basically an exhibition, and Vitali would purposely lose so that his brother can unify the division. Then Vitali would either retire. So my pick would be Wlad.
Vlad said, that Vitali would beat him. They will not even think about fighting each other period. Spinks did not fight Spinks.
:shock: Wlad is much faster then Vitali and has way more power. Wlad has better footwork also. Vitali has a better chin Wlad in late round KO/TKO
Alright.... to me, imo, this has a few outcomes depending on what version of the fighters we are talking about. I actually consider wlad in his prime RIGHT NOW. Because while he might be a bit older, and less exciting then his younger days, hes supremely effective now and thouroughly dominant.... Young Wlad vs Young Vitali - I think while Wlad would have success early on, outspeeding Vitali and outpointing him, round by round Vitali starts getting to Wlad, starts making him uncomfortable, starts breaking him down, until around the 9th, 10th, 11th, hes in complete control. Vitali also has the style that i think he would make Wlad throw a lot of punches and drain him by fighting with him, so i could also see wlad very tired towards the end, and im leaning towards the ref or corner stopping the fight. Prime Wlad (now) vs Prime Vitali - I see Wlad keeping Vitali at the end of his jab, and tying him up whenever he gets close enough to put in good work. I think Vitali still gets to him here and there, but i think Wlad has enough experience and smarts at this point in time to wether whatever storms he has, keep his composure and ride through to a UD. Wlad vs Vitali RIGHT NOW? - I dont even see this fight as that competetive, Wlad would slice vitali up shooting that right hand down the middle in the middle rounds and with Vitali now a stiffer, slower version of what he used to be, i dont see him getting to wlad much at all and i see wlad cutting him to ribbons down the stretch, to eather a late stoppage or wide UD. just IMO
If it was prime V vs prime W I see the fight going either like Vitali vs Lennox , with Vitali being stopped by cuts, OR Vitali wins by brutal TKO/KO because of his reflexes and fighting spirit.
Vitali would obliterate Wlad. He's just a tougher dude. Wlad won't be able to use his size... Vitali will hit him, will force him to fight at an uncomfortable pace. Vitali breaks Wlad down and stops him. Yes, even this older version of Vitali is too much for Wlad.
prime for prime.... Vitali by early to mid round KO This version of Vitali gets outboxed and beat by UD
Wlad wouldn't be able to take half the punches Lennox took in the first 4 rounds of that fight and wouldn't stand and trade like Lennox did neither
