Who would be favored?

[DAWGSWIN]

Is there any Heavy that Vitali would not be favored against? Wladmir excluded.

At this very moment, I have to say no. If he's continuing to box till the day he,ll be visibly on the downside that's all another story but for the moment, the ukrenian monster is on the top of the pile.

For someone who was seemingly done in with injury problems Vitali has come back in very rude health. He's the pick of the bunch for me and I regard him as a significantly better fighter than his brother.

I like watching Vitali fight (except for those times where he clinches a little too quickly). He has high output which is something I really like in a fighter and it's great the way you can barely touch him with his hands hanging around his waist. His footwork is awkward all too often, but his height and reach give him all the advantages.

I can't see him losing in the next year at least. And I don't see that many competitors on the horizon either.

He cant be slowing down that much, Vitali just completely dominated a top ten heavyweight........To me he looked just as good as he ever has, he has always had an awkward style....

And to answer the question I dont think there is a heavyweight that could even challenge him other than Wlad.....

I think Vitali is streets ahead of all the rest including his brother, who is the 2nd best out there imo. No sign of anybody else coming through anytime soon *unless you believe the Haye hype )

I think Haye has a chance with Wlad but not a chance of beating Vitali.

Based on the fact that Wlad's chin is very average and that a lucky punch could make all the difference, yeah, but that beside, Wlad has the edge on every other level by a good measure.

So Vitali handles taking punches better...recently has Wladimir taken much punishment

I think Vitali is a good fighter, but Wladimir is BY FAR the best boxer in the division. I don't think Haye has a shot at either Klitschko, I am not sure he is even the favorite vs Valuev, after last night I fancy Cris Arreola beating the shit out of David Haye.

I give him a chance at Wlad because of Wlads chin and Haye is fast and a good puncher,he will attack Wlad he wont stand out of range and just eat jabs.He could get knocked out by doing this but thats the only way for him to to win.

Cris has the guts to try it, but I think Wladimir's power would change his mind early on.
