    !!!!

    Seriously? You think you could pull off a decision win? I mean, I am no one to doubt your ability... just wanted to know if you were serious.

    Have you ever met a confidence-less boxer?

    Well if I was in the Ring with either Klit, the world HW title scene would have had to really collapse but i'll do it. I'm 6 foot tall and a lean 215lbs. I do train 6 times a week and I like to think I am quite strong and fast.

    To take on the Klitschko's though first of all I would need a time machine. I spent quite a lot of time around various clubs and gyms but I'd need to concentrate on JUST boxing from a quite early age. Assuming that I do reach the level in boxing that is required to become a decent pro and really be able to take on a Klitschko I would first of all choose Wlad, then look at having to develop a plan that would help me get on the inside.

    But then a huge problem appears, what do I do when he grabs me and then leans on me with that massive size advantage? I think Haye's idea is about the best I've seen, just drop down. I know it wasn't good to watch but it's better than trying to hold him up and being drained of all my energy. Then once i'd decided that was my tactics once i was held I'd have to think of a way to land on that chin. Now looking at the old fights of Wlad being KO'd tells us basically nothing now other than he can be KO'd if landed on well. His discipline now is far too good to ever make the mistakes he used to make and THAT is what has made him so hard to beat. He knows people call him boring, is he bothered? Maybe, but not enough to risk his titles and who really can blame him??

    I personally think Mike Tyson in his prime and Evander Holyfield in his prime would have been men (in recent times) with a similar size to me who would have beaten Wlad, but Tyson had great head movement, great speed and thunderous power and them 3 assets to me are what would get to Wlad. On the other hand Tyson had a tendency to unravel when things went wrong and if he didn't land clean on Wlad in the first 6, I'd start to favour Wlad. But the assets Tyson had were god given. Yes he worked damned hard to perfect them but they had to be there and not many people have them things in them. In fact I don't think people realise just how rare the natural talents of a world level boxer really are.

    Evander on the other hand fought differently to Tyson, he was a real tough guy who could take punishment and come back fighting and he was also a very good counter puncher and once he was held by Wlad he would make it very uncomfortable for Wlad by digging his head in etc. Again though Evander is a man with almost freakish god given talents as well as a will to win like not many other men in any sport have ever had.

    Anyway between them I think I could pick the skills from these 2 men and mould them into a style that I could use to beat Wlad. Yes I would just need Tysons power, speed and head movement along with Evanders heart, chin, will to win and counter punching ability and that's how I would be put on the path to glory

    Which ring? Am I allowed to break all the bones in the top of his foot and knee him in the nuts with the same leg? If not Im having an afternoon nap before the second bell.

    I'd out jab them all night.

    See how they feel when my 5ft 11 frame is pushing that jab in their face all night. Bet they would't like it!

    Even if they let me punch them without reply, their faces would probably be that solid I'd break my hand or just colapse from pure exhaustion!

    Yes I am serious. I can't be beat and I won't be beat. he's big and he's strong but he's clumsy.

    If he caught me I dare say I'd be fucked though

    I would choose Wald.. I'm 6ft1 and 180 .. I feel like I would get outboxed the first 4-5 rounds. But after that I would speed up the pace and eventually catch him with a right hook in the mid rounds and drop him. He would then go on the defensive for the rest of the round. He would regroup and win two more rounds 8-9 and gass out in the 10th, I would then press the pace and knock him down 3 times in the round. Each time he would take a little longer to get up but eventually he would make the count. Amazingly the ref would let all 3 kos proceed without stoppage. I would dominate the 11 and wobble him in the finishing seconds of the round. The 12 round would proceed with pretty much the fight draw and viewer's split up on thoughts of who should be winning. He would then head butt me in a clear attempt to cut me because he knows the momentum is with me.. Cortez being the ref would not see this and would stop the fight on cuts claiming it was a punch.. The crowd would boo and an immediate rematch would be mandated... I would then proceed to knock him out in the first round on the rematch with a left hook to the temple and a rubber match would be set.

    I'd much rather fight glass jawed Wlad, as he would probably carry my ass all night, and as always, be happy with a win. Vitali is another story. He puts a hurting on a MF. I'd get ko'ed pretty fast.

    i wouldnt do good against either, but vitali is the killer.

    Fast and aggressive boxer would choose Wladimir coz he is more easily confused by aggressiveness. But if the boxer is bigger, careful i'm not sure. Perhaps the choose might be Wladimir again. At least his chin is more glass than those of Vitali. Looks like the corner of the eye is Vitali's only real problem and his aging too of course.

    I've never undestood why even The Ring thinks Wladimir is better professional heavyweight than Vitali.

    Well, I used to train in High School, and I have Joe Frazier's "Box Like the Pro's" AND I incorporate swimming into my workouts, so I reckon I'd swim away with a decision against either Klit...


    Okay, on a more serious note - I would choose Wlad. I'm damn near 100 pounds less than he is, so there'd be no point in even attempting to hit him, so once he hits me I'm going down, either because I got knocked out or I'm just pretending to be knocked out...

    Either way, it's over after the first hit and I get to collect a nice check
