    This guy is used to getting kicked, punched, and hit to the body, face, chin, head with feet.. not just punches. no wonder he is a tough mofo and fights awkward.

    he was a kick boxing champion too.. here's a clip i found on yt

    Wlad would get KTFO with some of those kicks or punches that vitali got hit with!

    this guy is a true tough mofo!

    Thats insane flexibility considering he is 6'7. He could literally take your head off from across the room

    That kickboxing background lets him see punches from all angles. Except that blazing left hook Lennox Lewis straightened him up with:

    Yeah, getting up and up again despite getting beatn up by Brwester and Sanders isn´t tough in this world. On the other hand Vitali quit against a soft puncher like Byrd. Hm, yeah, I guess Vitali is much tougher.

    what is cool is that a lot of his punches are still the same, the angles and such.


    Plus I like how he fought tall. When they are standing together clinching the other guy really isnt that much shorter but when theyre apart fighting the other guy is hunched over basically saying kick me in the face which vitali happily obliges. Vitali's head is way out of range the majority of the time.

    :deal Interesting how well it works. People say that Wlad is more skilled while he's only more textbook IMO. Vitali's sense of distance, reflexes, the way he moves on his feet and uses angles make up for many things he just doesn't have to use.

    Vitali > Wlad (tougher too)
