I'm a Klitschko fan...and a Haye fan! I say the hate threads are bad on both sides..hating is just not good period. I think when Haye fights Vitali as he's looking likely to do I see Vitali winning by KO if he can catch up with Haye or failing that a clear points win if Haye brings his running shoes. Still..I dont hate on either side and this site is rife with chilidish hate threads. Makes me sure that most on here are young teenage boys.
I didn't say you had to be a fan of either. They don't have the best resumes even though they have dominated for so long. Just saying what they have done with what is available to them in this heavyweight era and the class they have shown, deserves a little bit of respect, not the kind of bitter hatred you see from some vile so-called boxing fans.
:deal This, I was just going to comment the same. I don't really give a **** about the Klitschkos, I prefer Vitali over Wlad as he is the genuine article and I appreciate that they are great champions although in a somewhat poor HW era. I still have to give them their dues though ... they beat everyone out there and duck no one. But their fans ... guys like you :verysad I had a look at your (the TS) post history before responding, just to confirm what I already suspected, you have barely commented on anything boxing related other than the Klitschkos. With all the great fights out there, great fighters and genuinely exciting prospects in the sport, you choose to ignore all of them and focus entirely on the Klitschko brothers. That makes me question certain things about "fans" like you, cos your not fans of the sport of boxing but fans of the Klit brothers as far as I can see. Or do you think that's an unfair comment?
I admire Viali for his toughness and his skill. Wladimir for what he has achieved. Three devastating losses but he kept on going and kept trying. Now he is the champ. How can you not admire that ?
I voted 'I like Vitali & hate Wlad" even though I don't hate Wlad, just like Vitali more. /Coolstorybro :hat
i like both of them but they are boring. they are boxers from the past that could beat them.james toney that fought ruiz on the rds would beat them or atleast one of them. holyfield gave lewis and bowe hell and both those guys were 6'5 and passed prime holy beat the giant from russia better then anyone else has to date and he loss that fight.
Love the K-Bros, but Vitali is my fave and the best heavyweight on the planet. He's even better now than when he fought Lewis and Sanders, better at controlling distance and avoiding being hit. At age 40, he's now the complete package. Amazing that he keeps improving.
