    Default Re: Vitali and Wlad

    Both of the Klitschkos are class acts in and out of the ring and they typically produce serious KOs. I think either one would give any of the past heavyweights a good run for their money. People say Wlad is chinny but I disagree, to me he only was only legitimately KO'd one time and that was by Sanders and it was an off night, he got caught and panic'ed. If they replayed that fight now the Sanders that KO'ed W. (not the Sanders of today) would be doomed.

    For God's sake they are 100 times better than Maskaev, Tony, Ruiz, Byrd.

    I agree they dont go in swinging for the fences like Tyson, but they are not the heavy weight version of Winky Wright either.

    Agreed, I finally saw the video of Haye catching Wlad at the airport and for all Haye's trash talk, Wlad was the one who looked better in that video. He didn't lose his cool and just had an intelligent answer for Haye at every step..I thought he came off wittier than Haye as well

    'ahh Mr Haye!'
    'How much do you weigh this morning?'
    'Is that heavy enough for you?'
    'Listen, in the heavyweight division you are nothing'
    'There is a big queue of people who are waiting for a shot..get to the back, get in the ring and just do your job'

    Haye just seemed to be talking for talkings sake. Good stuff from Wlad, very classy.

    Been watching more Wlad and Vitali fights recently. Wlad obviously fights more conservatively but Vitali is an animal! Both have their strengths..I do feel, perhaps, that Lewis would have eaten Wlad up though. As would some of the other great heavyweights..the ones with superior skill anyway e.g Ali, Holmes (I think these 2 beat Vitali also, although the sheer size would pose a problem). So I do have a slight problem putting their names up there with these guys but they will be remembered as the dominant heavyweights of this era.
