I have always wondered what would have happened if Vitali had made it to the finals of the 1996 Atlanta olympics. What would the brothers have done in that situation? Would they have done something like a light sparring session? Or would they have both defaulted and handed over the medal to Paea Wolfgramm or whoever? I know the Ukraine can only send one representative, but remember this is a hypothetical situation...
They solved that issue by having Wlad start at a lower weightclass, killing himself to make the weight. However, if they would face each other, either one would go out claiming an injury, or they make it a simple point sparring match with no heavy contact.
Wouldn't of happend. As someone else put in the other post, only one person from a country in one weight. So if Wlad was heavy, Vitali would of had to go super heavy.
