Hypothetical Matchup: Vitali Klitschko vs Wladimir Klitschko

I agree, Wlad is a much better boxer, a better technician with a superb jab. However, Vitali was a fighter to the bottom of his soul, teak tough with a granite chin and very strong and durable.

The big question "what would happen if Wlad fought someone as big as he is, who would not be intimidated and who would be strong enough to rough him up and not allow himself to be held and leaned on?" proudly be answered.

Vitali would bully him and Wlad would panic up close. The jabs and big right would just bounce off Vitali and I see a mid rounds stoppage as soon a Vitali can close the distance and start busting Wlad up

Yes, Wlad has a great jab. I always thought he and Floyd throw the best jabs in boxing. I was surprised how poorly he used it in this last fight.Kind of stuck it out there leaving it. Strange for someone with such a great jab. I think betwixt he and Vitali it would be a family hug fest, probably worse than the povodkin fight.

It would be like the williams sisters playing a tennis match, they have been rubbish.

[No Contest]

Vitali all day. Cue Lyle to come in and point out Wlad is the much better boxer. Vitali never lost badly like Wlad, Vitali's two losses were when he was up on the cards and got injured. I do think Lennox may have stopped him though.

For Durability reasons, i'd go for Vitali. But i wouldn't be surprised if Wlad's lead hand ended up making Vitali's face look like Hamburger meat

I've got Vitali on brass and bulk as well. They call them big brothers for a reason. He'd force exchanges after that 'buffering' jab of Wlad and when lil bro depends on the tie up/clutch/brothers hug/ crap he does inside.
