    LoL.. Vitali does not resemble Fury in any way expect for size.

    Fury is like a Billy Joe Saunders whereas Vitali is like a Victor Postal.

    We all saw what the switch hitting mover Crawford did to Postal. Fury is a switch hitting mover.

    We all saw Chisora run Vitali from pillar to post while Fury literally toy'd with him. He was under instruction from Peter to play around and work on techniques having been out of the ring for a year due to the David Haye pull-outs.
    Once he had enough he easily went out and put a stop to the contest. Vitali was on the verge of collapse after 12 rounds with Chisora.

    One more while im here , Fury looked like a virtuoso when he spanked Kingpin .. Vitali looked like an buffoon against him. Missing 70% of his punches and eating jabs to beat the band.

    Fury was on a totally different level to Vitali. We're looking at two different levels of boxer.

    I actually think Wlad hit a great deal harder when he sat down on his punches. Vitali was not so interested in hitting very hard as hitting often while minimizing his chances of getting tagged back. He looked like Lurch but there was a method to his awkwardness. imho, of course.

    there ought to be a poll.

    I'd go earlier on, vitali> wlad, and by ko no less.

    But I would add this now -later when wlad was still prime and learning how to fight in different ways, using the ring, rules and ref to his advantage more than he used to, and vitali was post prime and had lost his fearless streak that saw him get int the ring with an ATG, wlad might just outpoint him.

    Probably Vitali due to having a better chin and just a better reaction to getting punched. His fighting instincts were better.

    Wlad ranks higher on my all time list as he certainly defeated the better opponents, but I wouldn’t pick him H2H over his older brother.

    Wlad was faster and hit much harder. Chris Byrd said Wlad hit 3 times harder than Vitali

    "Wladimir hits 3 times harder than Vitali...Vitali has better ability...he's better on his feet...he's tougher...one's tougher, but the other hits way harder," stated former heavyweight champion Chris Byrd, who compared Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko. Check it out -
