is this a pick 'em fight? even odd's? it is a tuff call..i think wald would be looking good early..rocking vatali a few times.. then around mid rounds..boom. vitali gets wald hurt and things change vitali keeps the presure on breaking wald down like vitali does to everyone and winning by tko late..
Remember they're brothers. Each knows the other's weaknesses only too well just like you know your own sibling's weaknesses. You couldn't pick this fight based on skill set it would have that 'X-Factor' making it a true 50/50 fight. I'd hedge Wladimir on points because he knows how Vitali fights and would score the more points in reflection of this over 12 rounds because he's more active. He know's exactly what Vitali will look for in a KO as will Vitali in him. Points is the better way to go here.
If Vitali fights like they're not brothers he wins by TKO unless Wlad's chin has improved considerably since the last time he was down.
If Vitali didn't look at Wlad as his brother, he would find his glass chin early and expose it for all to see. The fight will look similar to the Sanders fight, Wlad will get caught with a big right hand early and wont be able to recover. I see a few panic attacks and falls before Vitali gets the TKO. I will either come in the 2nd or 3rd round, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't go past 6.
