German trainer Fritz Zdunek, who is the mentor to WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko, says a fight between Vitali and his younger brother, IBO/WBO/IBF champion Wladimir Klitschko, would never get the proper recognition. In the opinion of Zdunek, most people would never take it seriously because there would be too many questions marks, such as a possible fix between the brothers, or one brother taking it easy in the fight.
"It would be madness. For this contest, no one would treat it seriously. People would continue to speculate about different kinds of collusion and things like that. So I think that this fight would never receive the proper recognition," said Zdunek to Alexander Pavlov.
Another thing Zdunek doesn't agree with are the constant comparisons between Wladimir and Muhammad Ali. The promotional campaign for Wladimir's fight with Dereck Chisora on December 11 has often been compared to Ali's fight with Leon Spinks.
"Wadimir and Ali - are two completely different people who should not be compared. Between them you can find a lot of differences, and conduct a number of parallels. But their styles are not comparable," Zdunek said.
