    I can and I did - doesn't mean the poster couldn't express an opinion. People do that on here all the time to start debates.

    Wlad got KOd several times by guys with a less lethal punch than Wilder. Wlad does not recover from a punch at all.
    Vitali might have a better chance but he never fought anybody of that caliber to say. He beat the 2nd tear guy that KO'd Wlad. But that doesn't say much. There is no evidence that Wlad or Vitali would "smoke" Wilder. None. Even as unskilled as Wilder is.

    Vit vs Wilder looks similar to the Corrie Sanders fight. Vitali gets hurt, survives and overwhelms Wilder. Vitali by TKO 8
    Vit Vs Joshua is a competitive chess match for around 5 or 6 rounds before Vitali's workrate and stamina starts to overwhelm Josh. Vit TKO 10

    I think he loses to one of them. Vitali’s whole style was based off that fact that pretty much everyone he fought was smaller and worse than him. Stiff offense combined with leaning your head back all the time worked in his era, but I doubt it would’ve translated well against other skilled big men. The version of Lewis he fought was complete crap and Vitali still couldn’t hang. Obviously we don’t know for sure, but I never fancied Vitali’s chances in an era with other skilled big guys.

    Vitali destroys them both with ease.

    Vitali would grind down and stop AJ.
    I would actually favour Wilder to KO Vitali. Vitali liked to fight with his hands down, using his size and range to avoid shots. That seems like a disaster against Wilder.

    Fury dropped Wilder at Will and is nowhere near the puncher Wlad is. Wlad himself dropped Wilder several times in sparring and there was a reason Deontay was kept well away from him. A prime Klitschko with Steward in his corner KOs Wilder in 5-6 rounds for me, although it’s still a dangerous fight.

    Vitali fought Lewis who is levels above Wilder and gave him hell. He beat Sanders who was a dangerous puncher and stopped Peter during his comeback. His resume is weak but he’s shown an excellent chin throughout his career and has exceptional power. Imo he outlasts Wilder and breaks him down. It would still be a tough fight but and I think closer than the Wlad fight.

    My logic is based on Wilder’s lack of big wins and how he was destroyed in the second Fury fight. Truth is we will never know but I think there’s plenty of solid arguments for why the Klitschkos would beat Wilder (and I get your logic as well, Wilder is a dangerous guy).

    Interesting, I think his jerky style and immense size may actually prevent Wilder from landing a fully flush right hand. I think Vitali has more than enough power to KO Wilder as well who I don’t think has the best chin.

    I’ll make sure to include my opinion below each poll in the future, just want to see why everyone votes the way they do.

    This, there's a reason why Vitali never attempted to unify against the even bigger Nikolai Valuev.

    Too bad Wlad already laid him out, so bad that Wilders promoter called wilder a baby champ and proceeded to only fight has beens and never was, until he was beat.

    Wilder was losing to Ortiz and Fury before his power saved him from L's.

    That won't happen with Vitali.


    Picking Wilder over Vitali is an odd choice.

    He's not going to outbox him, he's not going to outwork him, he's not going to drop him.

    Wilder will be more susceptible to Vitalis power and physicality than Vitali is to his, imo.
