Comparing Haye v Wlad to Adamek v Vitali is just not comparing apples with apples. Vitali would hunt Haye down and I believe Haye would take a similar beating to Adamek. The straight right from Vitali would be too much for Haye as well.


Hat's off to Vitali's conditioning. He looked in fantastic shape, his best in a while. He was quicker tonight and didn't gas. I am always a bit suspicious though of how the Klitschko's get in such good condition.

Haven't you seen Rocky 4?

What other fighter would a chance against them?

Povetkin- to small
Boystov- to small

Helenius and Fury are the only ones I would stay stand half a chance of beating them.

Not giving many a chance against them but Tyson is fat he was getting credit for coming in the ring weighing just over 18 stone!! K Bros are athletes their preparation is exceptional.

This is getting a bit silly now. A lot of you guys talk in previous threads about how the giants of the past have been slayed by smaller men. It's no different now except that maybe we just don't have good enough smaller men (and the K's are pretty decent).

I definitely think Foreman is on to something.. you need someone with a solid chin who can take some shots getting in and also, has the ability/skill to get in and land.

I think the current crop of heavies is as poor as i can ever remember, but that doesnt detract for me the fact that Vitali is a very good champion who would be a handful for anyone down the years. Wladimir is different case for me i fear he would not be anywhere near the force he is in a stronger era, that chin would let him down against better opposition. I think its a shame that we have little brother holding multiple titles when its pretty clear big brother is the number one and would destoy him within a few rounds.

Vitali's definitely the brother who'd pose the bigger challenge to past greater. It's his willingness to get stuck in and trade which makes him the bigger threat. Wlad is too reluctant by comparison, and is more likely to be flustered if he's not allowed to fight his way.

Vitali was out of the picture for several years and Wlad mostly cleaned-up in the meantime. Given their blood relation, I think it's unfair to expect them to fight each other. The bottom line is, better heavyweights need to produced.
