My Controversial Opinion: Vitali > Vlad

Well, you're wrong. Resume wise you can't make a case for that at all. H2H is speculation and irrelevant frankly.

 

Not Controversial at all, Vitali is the better ATG

 

What's controversial about this statement?

I think most respected boxing experts have always stated in a head to head Vitali would beat Wlad.

I've never found Vitali boring to watch, infact pre 2004 he was very exciting to watch and post 2008 when he came back he was still pretty good to watch too.

 

Agreed, Big Bro would have destroyed his baby sibling.

 

The consensus opinion is that Vitali is better H2H, and Wlad has a much better resume.

So it's not a controversial opinion.

 

Yeah, "would" and "could" sum up Vitali's career up pretty accurately because ultimately, he didn't. Wlad's resume shits all over Vitali's, it's not even funny. Nobody on Vit's resume is on Haye's, Iggy's, Chagaev's, Byrd's or Povetkin's level. Chambers was a pretty good win as well.

 

:deal

 

Not even remotely. Sanders and Peter were the best non K's of the post LL era, and VK had the impressive wins over them. What people like you fail to understand is resume means a lot more than the raw number of top 15 HW's you beat, its beating the very best of the best, and the manner in which you beat them. Vitali's level of dominance over all his opponents and beating the top HW's that Wlad struggled with puts VK a bit above Wlad resume wise.

 

Agreed Wlad would also agree with you, I've heard him say it in an interview

 

His granite chin has to rate amongst the best ever and he also has the highest ko percentage of any HW champ along with the nvr losing a fight on the cards stat...

Vit is bad ass in all departments, were his bro is a glass chined, clinching giant and without his size and weight advantages he'd be nothing!

 

what is he supposed to say? hes being politically correct atsch

 

Naw surely if ur a HW champ of the world u don't say ur brother is the real fighter of the two

 

I ask anyone to outline to me what makes Wlad this great HW champ apart from his natural size and weight advantages?

His ability to fight on the outside, move into range and throw a jab and straight right then clinch, lean down on the smaller opponent tire him out the repeat this process?
