We all know that Wlad refuses to fight his brother and I respect not wanting to fight close family and all that but what Vitali has effectively done is killed the hw division because there will never be an undisputed champ as long as he is actively holding a major belt. The sooner he retires the sooner boxing can move one step closer to a universally recognized single heavyweight champion.
Vitali has ruined the hw division

While I agree with you in essence, everyone already know he's not the real champ and his brother is a far greater fighter. His WBC belt is nothing but decoration. It is very selfish of him not to give it up so Wlad can unify like a true all time great.Comment

Well the problem is with both being active is that the eternal question of which brother is better will never be answered. The best case scenario is if one of them (preferably Vitali) retired so they're vicegrip on the division is released. To the general public the hw division has historically been THE division in boxing but a fractured title doesn't help that. Even though Lewis wasn't the draw that previous undisputed champs like Tyson and Holy were he was still the champ and recognized by all as the champ which made his fights more attractive to watch at least by American audiences ( I am aware the Klits are stars in Germany).Comment
