    Contrary to what many people think, they are very different fighters. Personally, I find both of them entertaining. They always go for the KO.

            They are getting a lot of the same criticism Lennox Lewis received for having a systematic approach to Boxing.

            Do you think the criticism is warranted? Do you think the breaking down method style is entertaining? Please explain and discuss your answers.
            I dont consider vitali to be boring but wlad can be very painful to watch. at least vitali goes in for the kill when he senses his foe is wounded. wlad deserves the criticism tho for sure

              Agree to some extent. Vitali, despite being a tat too robotic for my liking, fights like a man who's on a mission mostly. His last couple of performances haven't been good but pre-briggs he was good value in the entertainment department.

                Vitali wasn't that bad, now that he is older he isn't as fluid as he used to be and thus not as exciting but he was always pretty fun to watch and even with that criticism he is still more fun to watch at present.

                Wlad used to be fun back in the day but he really plays to win now which I do have respect for but it certainly isn't the most enthralling stuff.

                  Vitali can be entertaining but the level of opposition dampens that entertainment somewhat. Wlad is about as boring as it gets, i'd defend his competency but not the dullness of his approach.

                    Vitali is the better bet....he used to properly go for guys and always loved the way he beat some manners into the repellant, gobby little Herbie Hide, made things personal against Sanders and had a right go at Lennox.

                    VK is the better fighter for the fan because he has the shorter fuse and is more willing to swap shots and have a war.

                      Vitali Klitschko by far is the more thrilling fighter... he comes to fight & throws punches in bunches from every angle in the book. He's the ONLY champion in history never to be outthrown.. outlanded.. outboxed or outslugged in any of his bouts.. never has even lost 3 rds on the scorecards in any of his 47 fights.. he is statistically the most dominant champion in boxing history taking into account every single aspect of boxing that contributes to victory.. even when he's lost he dominated the scorecards & all punching statistics.


                      There is NO blueprint for ANY man that has stepped in a boxing ring to beat him while he's actually fighting & physically fit to complete a bout & most know this to be factual but won't admit it.. focusing on lame competition as the reason for this unprecedented dominance.. every champion in history has had his fare share of fighting pretenders & journeyman.. fact remains why can't the haters explain why Vitali is the ONLY fighter to ever have literally & completely dominated his entire opposition without even giving a trace of evidence that he can be outboxed or put on the canvas.


                      To have every single aspect of winning a boxing match from your offensive fists all the way to your defensive jaw... this is why no one on here wants to give him his due credit because they can't legitimately explain away such utter boxing shutouts.... so therefor all the focus gets put onto how bad his opponents have been. when in reality he's the ONLY one to ever have done what he's done against his opposition.
