    He has power, and a chin...nothing else, no skills, he's not overly agressive (except for the Golota fight).

    He's just like another David Tua.

      No skill? He was a Golden Glove champ -- that required some skill.

        Just look at him fight, whats so skillful about losing 8 rounds to Wlad, getting in 1 or 2 punches against a no-defense Wlad?

            You have to like him just for the Wlad fight. Heart like that can make up for a lot of the inadequacies of his game. The question is whether he's as good as he looked aginst Golota or as bad as he looked against Meehan. He's too inconsistent to be a threat to real elite heavies (if any ever show up)

              Vitali has never been stopped(KOd), Wlad has, Vitali was winning every single fight he has lost, Nobody in their right mind can really say Byrd beat Vitali by dominating him or outboxing Vitali, Byrd came out lucky VKs arm was messed up, Lewis was also behind in the Vitali fight 4-2, The fight was stopped due to the ring Dr., Vitali still wanted to fight Lennox. Theirs a reason Vitali is champ and Wlad aint, Vitali has a chin, Wlad does not, Brewster is a small man fighting Vit. Vits jab alone will win the fight with Brewster,

                I think the fight with Meehan was a friendly gesture on Brewster's part -- Brewster exerted just enough effort not to knock Meehan out. I really believe that.

                  Brewster lost 4 extremely one sided rounds to Wlad, 4 embarrassing rounds to Wlad,


                  He as in Brewster has also lost to journeyman Clifford Ettienne and Charles Shufford and people can make a very good case that Brewster also lost to journeyman Keli Meehan

                    He's not that good to answer your question.

                      This is all true. Wlad kicked the crap out of Brewster the first 4.5 rounds and Brewster was lucky to survive round four.
