Sam Peter says Vitali is better than Wladimir.

Sam Peter, who is going to fight Robert Helenius in Germany (on ARD), April 02, confirmed that Vitali is the better fighter between the bros. 2nd fighter as far I know saying that Vitali is the better fighter with the first being Lennox Lewis. (German interview) http://www.boxen.com/news-archiv/newsdetails/article/peter-setzt-auf-erfahrung.html well, no need to ask Corrie Sanders, but it would be interesting to ask Chris Byrd who won his fight against Vitali, who couldnt continue due to an shoulder injury back in the day, but was defeated against Wlad twice.

when asked about who is the better fighter of the two brothers (he fought both) he simple answered -Vitali. It wouldn't be the first time that a fighter claims that Boxer A is better than Boxer B, even though Boxer B handled him much more dominantly. It's just an excuse saying: "Well, it wasn't my day. And the reason why Boxer B beat me to pulp is not because he is so much better than me but because I had a bad day". It's just an excuse to sweep a loss under the carpet. Because Sam Peter basically says that "Look, how good Vitali is and how he couldn't knock me down". The same happened for example with Larry Holmes who was OWNED by Tyson like nobody owned him before. And what did Holmes say? "Others hit MUCH harder than Tyson".

At this stage Wladimir is probably harder to beat but if you take away their considerable size advantage Vladimir is the better of the two brothers. If you take away the obvious size advantage of Wlad and he has to tough it out against someone who can land punches on him he'd fold like a flan in a cupboard, while Vitali will at least try to knock his opponent out.

Samuel didnt fight Lennox, so whats he got to do with it? But Wlad is in ring magazine top 10 p4p which is funny considering his bro is better. But i wonder if Samuel thinks James Toney is nearly as good as Wlad?

If Vitali hadn't have had the 4 year break he would be the undisputed champ. Nobody would give a **** about Wlad.
