    Vitali is my favourite HW but I can see that Haye beating him would be better for the sport.

        Personally i'm not sure that i can. Wladimir's chin problems are overstated imo and he is technically definately the best heavy in the game today. Although his brother is my favourite heavy right now i can't help but admire the technical brilliance of this guy. Sure he has a tendency to fight pretty careful but he has all the tools there if he needs them. Add to that the fact that he is ultra-professional, still young for a heavy and seems to be very driven and it is tough to see him getting beat for quite some time.

        Once vitali decides to fully retire, i see wladimir pretty much dominating this division for quite some time.

        So do you guys think there is anyone out there that can beat him? If so, who is it and why?

          I love listenin to Lennox Lewis do commentary on Klit's fights. He's always remarking on how Klit should throw more variety of punches and if he was in there he would do this and that. You can tell he really wants to say I am so much better than this guy.

            Probably a long, long time considering how bad the division is right now.

              Wlad has never been counted out, he always got back on his feet and was ready to continue!

              Lennox has been counted out twice.

                Actually Lewis was counted out just once. He was on his feet against McCall when the Don King bought referee stopped the fight.

                    Yeah Tunney, he got up 4 times against Sanders. Do you really think he could've made it out of round 2 in that one?

                    I don't think he could have.

                    I think Wlad is a fine fine boxer. He has his flaws like everyone else, but he seemed to show more finishing fire in the Rahman fight.

                    I hope that trend continues. When he was younger he was very agressive and had a somewhat leaky defense but was entertaining.
                    He is too now, just in a different more cautious way.

                    He could conceivably run the division for a couple of more years easy.
