    Or maybe they value family more importantly than unifying the belts?

    If me and my imaginary brother had all heavyweight titles, I would not be fighting him to unify the titles. If I win I get everything and leave my brother with nothing, I also ruin his legacy and he becomes a joke, I show I am the better brother. I would also be trying to knock him out because if we decided to fight I would have to take the fight seriously rather than do things by halves.

    Anyone who would choose to do this against a brother they get on with has something seriously wrong with their character. You've mentioned it a few times, it has nothing to do with money or advertising, it is totally unrealistic to expect 2 brothers to fight to unify the heavyweight division

    There's something wrong with me so !, I get on very well with both my brothers but would have no problems facing either of them in the ring and if World titles were on the line then all the better. I do understand not everyone feels this way though and I don't expect everyone to be able to do so. Would be very harsh on the parents as well.

    Yes he was, he stayed out of range the whole time and shoulld have been trying to get into his own range, thats running away.

    What we're talking about here is not slick footwork backed up by counterpunching, it was just get out of range and hope for the best..

    Very hard to look good against that and for wlad to land almost 50% of his punches against this akward negative style is brilliant in my opinion

    You reckon Haye would have eluded other fighters? He was there to be hit, albeit being a bit elusive; Klit just doesn't have the skill, or more importantly, the will, to hunt him down. Klit was very happy to barely keep in front, and that is his right, but that doesn't impress me. I guess that is just me.

    Though, one probably can't blame Klit. He was probably terrified of getting hit flush, and possibly knocked out.

    He eluded Valuev for 12 rounds and would most heavies, he's a big cruiser so has speed advantages and when not committing it's quite easy to just hide and take minimum punishment especially against the super heavy weight types..
