    Besides of course the obvious chin, there's another big difference. He who ruins fighters...

    Should Wladdy go back to Sdunek? :think

    Could be argued, but on the other hand - Wlad and Vitali differ so much in style. I don't think it makes this much of a difference.

    I don't think so. Wlad is as boring as he's ever been, but also his most effective. Guy doesn't get hit since Steward taught him to how to utilize his height and reach with the jab, and also to grab on. Which is all Steward seems capable of.

    With Wlad's vunerablities and strengths they are a perfect match.

    Vitali has the better stamina, a greater height and, formost, the better mentality...he's a fighter...

    I think Wlad after getting sparked a couple times went to a conservative approach under Manny's tutolidge of course. Even against Iggy he was way too safe, that's what makes Vitali such a beast.

    The main issue I have with Steward is that he took away most of Wlad's offensive arsenal.

    But then again, Wlad's psyche is weak - Steward is the perfect trainer for him...

    Perhaps, but I'm not convinced. Some defensive adjustments were required but I think Steward went way too far. Wlad has a great left hook, which he barely used in the last few years. Just the same old 1-2 all the time.

    Vitali is also the best finisher in boxing.

    His brother is good of course....but Vitali is much better.

    you know since the brewster fight, wlad hasn't really lost any rounds other than the ones that peter dropped him in. so i don't see how manny ruined him.

    :good

    Steward is a great trainer and very good for Wladimir.

    The style of Vitali had nothing to do with Sdunek.

    Fighter vs Boxer.
    Wlad has no problems saying his brother is better then he. He has always said so.
