I was just wondering who do you think is beter if both are at there peak vitali or wlad.
I'm not sure who to pick i think vitali may be the stronger puncher but only in combos, Wlad it seems has more one punch ko power. Also wlad is the better fighter as vitali looks really akward. When it comes to chin there's no contest vitali wins it every time as he's the only heavyweight champion never to be knocked down in his career.
Overall i think vitali is proberly better but wlad is young so who knows.
i was speaking soley career wise at this point.. i just think vitali is better.. what he did to danny williams and kirk johnson was amazing to me ... hes not only better defensively hes bigger 6'8 250 .. hes a giant that even knows how to roll his shoulder even tho it looks slow.. and he has a vicious 1 2
yea....I guess he may be better defensively now that I think about it,,,,but wlad is just so much more fluid. I dunno,,,,,,guess its a tough one to call. I havent seen vitali fight in a long time and wlad has really impressed me over his last several fights in his improvements
why are you briging up fights that happened years ago? were talking the wlad of 2007 who uses his jab much better and moves and ties up. anyway,,he was soley and offensive fighter back then and fought at just one pace

Again...
If they fight (and I'm sure they have sparred...)
Vitaly wins!
but based on talent and skills Wlad is still a better boxer. :)
...They did spar for a while and they stopped because they hurt each other multiple times.
....Wlad is the better natural talent, has the better offensive skills, and more raw power. Vit is the better defensive fighter, with the better chin. My pick is Wlad by a tick unless it's Vitali seeking revenge for his brother.
I think Vitali has underrated defense... He looks like a giant Quintana in the ring.
Vitali is "better" than Wlad but Wlad has a more impressive career because he has the "lose and get better from it" tacked on to his resume. People really look up to that quality.
Vitali is better...and he's not so inferior skill wise either. Vitali is obviously tougher and can take a better punch, but he also understands when to make a fight of it. Wlad is all about squeezing every ounce of advantage out of his natural size.
Vitali will always be the more entertaining one and he'll always get more respect out of me.
I tend to go with Vitali on this debate. He only lost twice in his career...once due to injury while he was battering Chis Byrd and once to Lennox Lewis when he was leading on all scorecards. While he never really beat anybody to get all too excited about, he did fare very nicely against this era's best HW (whether you like him or not) although it was on short notice. In conclusion, while Vitali has fought less competition he also KO'd Corrie Sanders, and never got caught by a Lamon Brewster or Ross Puritty. I guess Wladimir has a better chance to prove me wrong since I see his future as brighter than Vitali who I will never be convinced can make it through a year without some injury.
Yeah it does seem as if people have forgot about what Vitali is capable of, the guys skills may not be as good as Wlad's but just about every other aspect is, his heart, his chin, his right hand, his strength, his stamina.... Im almost 93% sure that if Vitali was still around he would have to vacate a belt just for his little brother to eat off! Also have any of you noticed Wlad's new found invinciblity didnt come into play until after his brother retired, so dont attribute his recent victories to just Wlad and Manny, but the other guy who was there giving pointers sparring and basically building his brother into a more skilled but less versatile fighter then himself!
true
if vitali had stayed fit after lennox's retirement i think he woould have unified the belts a long time ago and woul be pretty much unbeatable, the only fighter with a chance of beatin him bein his kid brother who hed never fight
if theyve got any younger brothers i fuckin pity the poor cunts who tried to bully them - 'i'll get my brothers onto you' 'yeah, right...'
Vitali is alot better Wlad can be named most improved but vitali is defintly the MVP of that family, i think his been goin so long people forget his jab is just as good as Wlads his got more power and his chin is a solid as Wlad's elbow while wlad chin is as soft as Vitali left ass cheek!
BTW, those of you who are saying that Vitali has never been knocked down...
Yes, Mccall is another champ who's never tasted the canvas... but so is VALUEV
vitali for me better all round boxer
Now that's just nonsense
Wlad is by far a more superior boxer..
Vitali is a just a f'ing tough 6'7 SOB! He'll stand there in front of you get hit and hit you back!
When Wlad fights, he barrely gets hit and his punches are extreamly accurate.

Wlad is more technically sound...better boxing ability and probably carries more power as well. Better movement, footwork...you name it.
Vit's chin is probably the only thing better than his brothers.
vitali is better he beat sanders was beating byrd and lennox on points when the fights were stoppped... wlad was abused by sanders knocked out by brewster and lost to ross purrity

the wlad today 2007 is better than prime vitali. the only thing vit has over him is the chin
vitali for me better all round boxer
You think Vitali is a better boxer??? Vitali probably more heart and definately better beard but Wlad owns him skill wise.
I agree with this analysis. But I'm not sure which overrides the other, Wlad's technical skills or Vitali's power. So I really can't say who is better.
I will say this, Vitali used to be better but now he has to work his way back up because Wlad might have overtaken him.
vitali is better techincally and defensively
