If Wlad, not Vitali, was black American, he would get even more stick....Larry Merchant would constantly be on his case about why he doesnt finish fights earlier, why he constantly holds etc., he would NOT be able to sell out 60,00 stadium arenas and would probably have stadiums boo him.....
IMO, if he was white American...many of his flaws would be overlooked and he would be the biggest thing since sliced bread........he would be one of the biggest celebritties....

I have never been impressed, yes they do their thing in the ring, but if they weren't 6'6'' ( 6'8" or 6'9" realistically) would they be as dominating.
Floyd Mayweather has 26" arms the same as Wladimir.
Paul Williams has a longer wingspan at 82" compared to Wlad's 81".

i dont care about his race, the only people who bring up race are some of his fans
he could be chinese, white, black, mexican, it'd make no difference, people just dont like the style of fight
its the same with tennis with the willaims sisters, its the style, one sided

There are plenty of racist in boxing.This site is full of them.But in regards to the klitcho's specifically,myself I happen to like Vitali.I think he's tough as nails.I think he's the top heavyweight right now.
But race is rampant on here.It's sickening.But the worst part is that the mods tend to tolerate it from a certain fanbase.which just isn't kool.I think anyone on this site that utters anything with a hint of racism should be banned.As a matter of fact racism is a poor mans disease.Broke people with ****ty lives that can't find anything else to do but hate another person because of their race,pathetic.

At the same time, if the bros were not as big as they are I certainly don't think they would be near as effective as they have been. If they were forced to fight quality fighter from the past I think they lose much of the time anyway. But if they didn't have that size advantage.....I might not even consider them competitive with most. That has nothing to do with color, but with an honest assessment of the facts.
Be honest with us, JAB. If the Klitschkos were black, you'd consider them to be ATG heavyweights.
But others don't like the Klitschkos because of nationalism not race. Many British fans fall into that category.
