wlad is much better technically, but vitali has heart and toughness on his side, not to mention the bigger brother mental advantage! one of the biggest advantages wlad has is his reach, and he would not be able to enjoy that advantage against vitali. if they fought, which won't ever happen, i would expect vitali to find wlad's chin about midway through and get a tko stoppage. with that said, the quicker that both of these dopes retire, the sooner that i will actually take heavyweight boxing seriously!
