Not particularly.
I rarely read personal attacks against them, the most frequent accusations I read are the following:
When somebody says that the K bros would dominate any era because they are so big, other people say that in a different era they'd both been contenders.
Some add that Wlad has a weak chin, which is maybe debatable, but he surely doesn't have a granite chin.
Many find both brothers boring. Again an opinion, I don't find Wlad exciting either to be honest. Vitali is/was slightly better
Some think that their skills are rather limited. Neither brother displays particularly outstandish boxing skills. One can agree or disagree, but I see many fighters get a similar or worse treatment.
Just to talk about my favorite fighter, let's take Joe Louis as an example.
For many he wouldn't stand a chance against any current HW because he's too small and because got KD by a bum named Tony Galento (in a fight that Louis won by TKO in the 4th round). I obviously disagree, but everybody is entitled to their opinion.
What I find -really- unfair though are accusation of being on PED's, to have failed test, or personal insults.
Off the top of my head I'd say that Manny, Floyd, JMM and possibly Khan have been treated unfairly here, not the K Bro's.
