    I think Wlad is more boring - closely followed by Ward. At least Ward fights the best time after time, whereas Wlad is fighting a lot of cans, and still carries them for 6 rounds.

    I don't usually watch either guy fight live, because I always end up disappointed that I stayed up. Wlad and I had an incident back in 2008 with the Ibragimov fight. Never forgave him for keeping me up until early in the morning that night.

      They aren't boring to me but I prefer Ward since he is a highly skilled technician.

          Ward. I like watching Klitschko KO's.

            That's like asking, which is more boring, watching paint dry or counting sheep?

              Ward has actual competition he can face. I would love to see Ward vs Stevenson, maybe even at 175, and he can take the lineal belt.

              Wlad fights in a completely dead division with a substantial size advantage and a cheap style.

                Ward is one of my favorite fighters to watch. The man is poetry in motion, pure entertainment.

                Wlad is usually okey in terms of entertainment value but he can be boring sometimes. Mainly when he carries tomato cans he could easily finish on the spot.

                Ward is never in with that pathetic level of oposition anymore so you cant hold it against him that hes cautious at times since his oponents pose a legitimate threat. If hes ever in there with a no hoper like shelby pudwill he takes him out quickly like he is supposed to.

                  They don't call him Andre "Son of Bore" Ward for nothing.

                  Even without his 90+ initiated clinches and headbutting, he's still a feather fisted bible thumper.

                  Wlad knocks *****s out. Wlad is the shit.

                    I like watching both in the ring, both have completely opposite styles. Wlad fights on the outside, Ward likes to be really close to his opponent. Both world class.

                    But I would say Ward has way less entertainment value, especially when you consider outside the ring.

                    The Klitschko brand itself is probably the biggest in the sport and is internationally known, which increases the interest in all of their fights. People watch Klitschko fights for the name, not so much for the boxing anymore.

                    Also the production value of all Klitschko's fights is seriously top notch. You have fireworks, live concerts, it's a spectacle.

                      I find Wlad boring.

                      I don't find Ward boring.
