    I think the American public is just bored with their fighting styles. If they were destroyers in the same way Mike Tyson was, they would be on Network TV. They're underachieving with their size and bulk.

    I like them i support them i really respect them in all of their activities

    Of course they are great boxers,that obvious

    I like Wlad, because he is kind funny guy.he is also a great technician, with monster punch.Of curse some say that he is boring, maybe yes.But he is aware of his drawbacks, i like him also because of it.He got his lacks, he is not a robot, just a human

    I like Vitali because he is really tough men.Great boxer, very strong mentally, much stronger then Wlad.It causes other kind of emotions, you feel that he is much more prone to brawls, to hurt people then Wlad.I respect his political activity, his marriage with Natalia makes me feel that he is much more stable then Wlad.Just like a men and a boy:)

    And moreover i just dont like criminalists, idiots, morons.Look at FMJJ, he acts so moronic that i just cannot support him, even if he is fantastic fighter.look at Haye.Really i wasnt a fan of Tyson, maybe because i was to young to watch him fighting in late 80s, but his behave outside the ring was a disgrace.I respect and supported Lewis, who was well mannered guy, just like K bros.

    I respect their business activity K2 and KMG i am sure that their will increase thei wealth after retirement, and try just compare it to Tyson, who lost all of his giant fortune
    Look at Wlads trick [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGdNe56UdK4[/ame]

    Vitali because he is a big man but still will throw 1,000 punches in a fight if it goes the distance and he is always pretty exciting. Wlad is boring to watch for sure, but in interviews you can tell he is a real classy guy and even though he is pretty boring he still dominates his competition.

    I became a fan after watching everyone whine about how they were going to lose every big fight they were in...eventually if you are like me you start to laugh at all the ridiculousness.

    Teddy Atlas even came around...that says a lot.

    There good and usually put a good beat down on their opponents. Been a boxing fan for about 20 years and I am a fan of lots of black boxers but I like to see white boxers showing they can compete in the sport also.

    Everything.


    Besides being completely dominant, both are the smartest and most intellectual HW's of all time. And that indeed is a fact, the Phd proves it.

    The whole package.....no homo....I can relate to the bond between brothers and the way they live their lifestyle is inspiring: domination in the ring, fit 365, they have a class and intelligence that is uncharacteristic of most champions, these dudes have their heads on straight and seem to be really down to earth...all the charity they do sets a precedence as well...I've met Wlad, still after years of dominance the Klitschkos care about their fans!

    You can't help but be impressed by the fact that they have both attained PHDs, and both hold the top two positions in the world, as for my favorite sport, heavyweight boxing. A first in the history of the sport for two brothers to both hold the major titles, adn both to have such advanced educations.

    That is impressive, to say the least.

    Its also impressive to see such overly big guys, also be so skilled. Another first. I also recall only one fight where the other was not in the corner offering his support. That I've seen, anway.

    In addition to that, their charity work and professionalism in how they handle themselves, as well as their extreme self discipline and dedication to training and condtioning........

    Never seen either one of them come into a fight being even remotely out of shape.

    Theyh are pure class and power, all the way.

    Someone already stole my "white" line. :D

    Truth be told more people probably hate them because they are White rather than like them exclusively for their phenotype.

    I´m a fan of Vitali. He´s funny in some odd brutal way. And his English, that´s hilarious.

    In the ring, his awkward style and the fact that he throws punches with bad intentions are entertaining IMO. I don´t see why ppl talk about the Klitschko -style. Wlad fights the Steward -way - safety first, avoid trading shots etc. Vitali´s style is much more warrior-like.

    "Let´s see who´s the Tzar in this ring!"

    Domination while being standup guys.
    Big as a modern heavyweight should be.
    Strong and impressive.
    Intelligent.
    Always in shape.
    Loads of KO's.
    Frustrating the fans from the established box countries.
    Fighting from Germany, wich makes watching them free for me.
    Coming back after embarrassing losses (like LL did too)
    Both actually were destroyers for a very large part of their careers

    The question we should ask is "Why wouldn't you like them?"
    The only reasons I can see is patriotism (not liking boxers from other countries), racism (oh no, they are white) and with Wlad reluctance to take chances, which anyone knows cost him dearly in the past when he was still the "search and destroy" type fighter.

    Much to like about these guys, and not much not to like...
