Its A Shame Eastern Euros Dont Play American Football.

I doubt either brother could run a 5.8 40 yard dash

[The Gambler1981]

College or NFL, he was outclassed by a boxing trainer. He then was destroyed by an obese man. Can you imagine what prime Vitali Klitschko would have done as a defensive end. Orlando Pace would have tried to block him and Vitali would have just knocked that dude to the ground like a house of cards.

It just makes me sad that the best football players are boxing or playing soccer.

Well Mitchell is just one guy and he is not the top example because he never actually made it to the highest level so he is inferior to the guys you are actually talking about.

They might have made decent defensive linemen though, Wlad certainly couldn't be an offensive lineman though he holds too much.... ZING!!!!!

[Check_hooks]

Someone like JJ Watt is physically superior than Wlad. Watt is stronger, can jump higher and can block shed better but he's been playing football since he was a kid.

These threads always end up the same.

[Weebler I]

They couldn't hang.

Of course they could, they love steroids over there too you know :-)

[JDezi4]

Lol, whats funny about this is that Eastern Europeans do just as good against Wlad and Vitali as Americans do in this day and age... Its not Eastern Europeans... Its the Klitchkos

[DosRounds]

They would dominate it. Think about the amount of athletes over in Eastern Europe. Its lucky for guys like Peyton Manning that Wlad didnt grow up playing football. He is bigger, stronger, faster and smarter. He could easily throw a football farther and with more accuracy and imagine his stiff arm jab. It would probably knock guys like Dwight Freeney out. Its just lucky for all these NFL players that these Eastern Euros arent getting into NFL football. Its unfortunate for the viewing public that the best QB of all time is boxing and not playing football. The best slot reciever of all time GGG is boxing. The best offensive lineman Manuel Charr is boxing...its just a shame. We saw what a joke NFL athletes are when Seth Mitchell got worked by a could have been NFL hall of famer's trainer and then its lucky Mexicans dont play much football because out of shape Chris Arreola nearly killed Mitchell. Can you imagine Arreola as a running back. If a joke like Ray Lewis tried to tackle him he'd get KO'ed like Seth Mitchell got KO'ed.

interesting. It may be true

wlad would be mark sanchez.

There was this Estonian dude that was on SMU last year I was watching him in the Hawaii bowl and dude was a straight up stud, forget his name but I know he got drafted.

was it margus hunt? he plays for the bengals. saw him on hard knocks. can't say i know much about him as a player.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Judging by Saturday night, Wladimir would be awesome at tackling.

[bojangles1987]

I wonder what high school coaches would try to push Wlad into, football or basketball. At 6'5 250 he's the size coaches want for a quarterback, but they'd probably try to get him to play forward or shooting guard for the basketball team. I wonder which he'd be better at.

[bojangles1987]

The OP is funny because all those things he said those boxers could do, they are way too small to actually do. Manuel Charr is small for a running back, let alone an offensive lineman. 160 pound Gennady Golovkin would have his career ended after one game in the NFL when some 240 pound linebacker took his head off. Wlad's about the size of a quarterback. Vitali would be a linebacker, maybe. Actually, Vitali would end up in basketball. He's about perfect size for a small forward.
