Vitali and Wladimir are definitely head and shoulders above the rest.
When I consider their performances against common opponents (Sanders, Peter, Purrity) and the fact that Wlad has been on the canvas and Vitali never has, I have to say Vitali is better than Wlad.
However, it's very close because Wlad has improved the past few years. He hasn't been down in his past six fights, and has won nine in a row.
Wladimir has had a better career overall, with 51 wins, 45 KOs, and winning 12 title fights.
Wladimir Klitschko is still the best heavyweight in the world. All that has changed from yesterday and today is that Vitali Klitschko is now the no.2 best heavyweight in the world.
Wladimir Klitschko built up an extensive record in the course of these 4 past years with wins over top quality opposition, including Samuel Peter, to have his accomplishments belittled by his older brother who has not fought in 4 years.
wlad might be the best boxer, but vitali has the intangibles that makes him better. he has the chin, the heart, the grit, the power, and obviously the skill. IMO vitali klitschko has always been the best heavyweight in the world when he has been active and HEALTHY....
