    I think Wlad is far more beatable then Vitali. For 2 reasons, one because his chin, secondly because of his stamina. 2 of Wlad's 3 losses were due to stamina (Purrity and Brewster) and of course his chin is average, not glass but average at best, he can be rattled and dropped. However, Wlad does hit much harder then Vitali and has a better jab and the ability to keep people from range.

    Vitali however has an iron chin and he has amazing stamina. To be honest if Wlad was fighting Arreola I do not think he could have kept the same pace as Vitali and he also possibly would panic if Arreola could take his punches as well as he took Vitali's.

    BTW I am not dissing Wlad or anything he is an amazing fighter, im simply asking who is more beatable in the ring.

    Right now I have no idea, Wlad has looked unbeatable recently and Vitali is 38 and somehow not losing steam. I guess I'll still say Wladimir, but I don't see either of them losing to the current crop of HW's, so it's unimportant.

    Wlad is by far the more beatable of the two.
    I still remember him clumsily falling around the ring with a glassy eyed "dear in the head lights" expression on his face during the Peter fight. I always feel like Wlad is one uppercut away from being an ex champ.

    I'd have to say Wlad, but only while being compared to Vitali

    Neither has to face the best challenge in the division, which is a shame for both.

    Most will say Wlad is more beatable.

    Even after the lay-off, I think Vitali is still the harder guy to beat.

    * Combine Wlad's more fluid style and one-punch power with Vitali's chin, stamina and mental toughness,,, and you got the ultimate Cyborg heavyweight.
     
  7. Vitali -- I know im in the minority but VK is getting older and dosen't have the power his Little Bro has, and Wlad's chin isn't as good as his older Bros but his body is stronger and less injury prone:deal but people never talk about that..
    Wlad could fight on and stay on top for another 5 or 6 years, Vitaly's body probaly won't hold up past his 40th bday..

    Wlad clearly. Very difficult and he is a really good fighter.

    But Vitaly is special.

    In their primes, the answer is obvious (Wlad), but now the question of age/durability hangs over Vitali and the fact that Wlad has improved considerably in the last few years is disregarded by many.

    Gun to my head, though, based on current evidence (VK's durability appears fine), WK is more beatable. Other than VK, though, no one has the tools to do it other than, maybe, Haye, and he's a 25% chance at that.

    Regardless of which is more beatable by other boxers, If they met in the ring, Wlad is by far, the more beatable.

    Right now, Vitali.

    I'm not even sure the mythical Ukrainian Civil War is the walk in the park for Dr. Ironfist that everyone makes it out to be, given where they both are at in their games at present.

    Wlad. Vitali is much more confident and effective with his technique then Wlad is.

    Wlad's glass chin makes him more beatable, I mean just compare the two performances with sam peter. Wlad is more rebotic even though I think he's the better boxer of the two. Vitali is more unpredictable and doesn't have a glass chin like his little brother:rofl

    Yep, people definitely underrate Wlad in a head to head matchup between the two. His technical superiority would give Vitali all sorts of hell.
