    Absolutly not. Wlad is way more talented just lacks the stamina and durability

    Some not mentioned yet:

    Travis and Tarvis Simms
    Jose Luis and Ricardo Castillo
    Khaosai and Kaokor Galaxy
    Andre and Anthony Dirrell (though Anthony ain't bad either - just has had a lot of bad luck)
    Danny "Little Red" and Ernie "Indian Red" Lopez

    Andrade and Ornelas is an odd one - Andrade is definitely a significantly better pro fighter, but that's mostly because of his chin and stamina; Ornelas is definitely a better boxer though.

    Apart from Vitali and Wlad...................are there any brothers that were BOTH good?

    Orlin and Terry I suppose
    Gabby and Rafael

    A few. But mostly 1 of the brothers seems to get the talent.

    The issue was talent.

    Vitili is the better boxer for me, due to those glaring weaknesses in Wlads game.

    imo Vitali also has better defence, is a better counterpuncher, is more versatile, and gases out less.

    However physically i do believe that Wlad is stronger... and he throws a better jab.

    Klitschkos
    Baers

    And of course the Marquez brothers who are probably best pair of brothers to box as far as I know.
