It's talked about this on here multiple times. They never had an intention to fight. Also Vitali is the better version because he has a better chin. Wlad won't survive his brother's punches.
naa, he just learned to pay the ref. beating Chaggy is on par with beating Haye. At least Chags tried. Haye went in to lose, anyone would have beaten haye that day. And he adjusted to the equal challenge of Pov too, by getting the ref to ignore excessive clinching.
Vitali wont survive his brother's punches either. So the fight would turn in to a boxing match where Wlad with his ATG jab would expose Vitali's No guard defence.
Wlad won't win , if he doesn't think he can . This is a classic case of little brother vs big brother , and by Wlads own admission he has never got the better of Vitali. That tells you who would win , the mental edge is already won , the way I fixed this problem is by delivering a crushing body blow to my older brother to the body after repeadily getting bloodied up dozens of times , we left that and the general consensus was he didn't ever box me again after that . Point being if the little brother cannot get the mental edge over a bigger tougher sibling the fight is already lost.
it is true that the many times wlad lost to serial middlers, it was vit who restored family honour for the champ unable to do beat some middlers. This is a mental edge.
Loads of common opponent's.. I think WK was the better athlete (not succumbing to injury etc) & the greater natural talent, with better power but didn't have Vitalis chin or warrior spirit.. Vitali was more awkward & unorthodox. Steward moulded Wlads style to to be incredibly effective for a period, albeit less entertaining but Vitali on his best day was a handful for anyone! Tough one. I'd have loved to have seen it... Anyone got the likes of Byrd, Peter, Sanders etc's phone no.? Lol
