This one should be good for many reasons. One it has to do with pride for the family. Vitali Watched while his brother *supposidly the better of the two* got KO'd by corrie sanders in the second round of a fight in germany. Vitali is obviously seeking revenge.

Secondly lennox lewis's trainer emmanuel steward training vitali for this match.

Thirdly is just to see who is the truly better heavyweight. I say Vitali KO's Sanders in 5 rounds tops!!

Besides there are really no more ligitimite heavyweights left with Lewis retiring*pussying out*

tyson is around but way past his prime, not to mention sanity.

The klitchko's will one day collect the titles

Vitaliy is not "supposedly" the better of the two, he IS the better of the two. Vladamir's glass jaw effort against ... wtf was his name.. the other night... Lonny something? Well, he got beat, anyways. Wasn't Wladamir also the one who lost to Sanders, not Vitali? God. It's so confusing.

Anyways, any time one of these guys fights, it's usually eventful.

^^^^Sport Spots:Vladimir Klitschko rules out retirement after defeat

BERLIN: Vladimir Klitschko will carry on boxing despite his shock defeat by American Lamon Brewster.

“I will be in the ring again,” said the Ukrainian, stopped in the fifth round in his World Boxing Organisation heavyweight title fight on Saturday in Las Vegas. “I don’t know what happened,” the 28-year-old told German television ZDF. “It’s not a mental problem. There’s something else.”

Ya Wladamir was the one who lost to sanders. Thats what makes this match so interesting. Vitali in the process of winning the WCB Heavyweight Crown he can also revenge family pride.

He can "revenge family pride" all he wants, it's not going to absolve his brother of anything.

Vitali seems to have a half decent chin (took some of Lewis' shots...) As far as I'm concerned, his brother is off the map of heavyweight contenders.

^ ya i know. Vitali seems to also be improving steadly where as his brother is obviously going the other way.
