Obviously Vitali is intimidating he's what 6'7? and a big in shape dude who also happens to look and sound like Bond Villain! He is solid technically (in his own way) a big puncher and has a top chin, he looks to intimadate too i feel
Wlad less so because he seems the nicer guy of the two, doesn't have quite the same mean look to him and hasnt the chin his brother has, and once u've seen a guiy scramble about on the canvas as often as Wlad it gives u real confidence if u can crack - u will go with visions of laying him out Cold.....
Of course when Wlad is looking down eyeballing u at the ref's instructions infront of HIS crowd and then uve tasted a couple of the hardest jabs uve ever taken then he seems a lot more intimidating..... Id think.
Excellent post & straight to the point. Fighter's know there's a slim chance they can crack his jaw. Opponents DON'T know they can do the same against Vitali because there's no evidence or visual aid of it happening. All they see is a man possessed with face lacerations & eyelid foreskin split open walking through hell & back taking monstrous shot after shot from Lennox Lewis. They also see the SAME exact punches that put Wlad to sleep... Vitali walk through them.. even taking a couple of flush shots on the jaw with his hands by his waist. One's been knocked down nearly a dozen times.. the other NOT even once.
Another point is that almost all opponents of Wlad think he can't take a punch but forget the MAIN point & that is there jaws can't take his shot flush & he HAS the higher probability of getting to your chin than you have to getting to his..... so all potential opposition of his have is false bravado at best.
He's got the power & the reach advantages to make his shaky chin be a complete non factor.. yet time & time again his last 10 opponents or so talk about his chin when it's there chin that is going to get cracked.. completely disregarding the fact that as soon as he lands his jab or his first hard punch,, you're on your bicycle.
We have seen this time & time again with both bros.. fighters going into a shell once they've tasted a flush Klitschko shot land & sometimes it's just a jab that does it.
