Boxing Talk is willing to put $200,000 that this guy will beat Hopkins. Who is Soliman?

I dont think that is BT. I think that is Somliman's management talking. You know that BT wouldnt do that. Soliman is solid but nothig special. X was supposed to fight Sturm and Taylor was going to fight Soliman
jack_the_rippuh 03-18-2005, 12:50 AM Soliman is willing to bet his purse in that case.
IwatchBoxing 03-18-2005, 12:59 AM Is Hopkins vs. Taylor really going to fall through?
If it does do you think he'll fight:
a)Left Hook Lacy
b)Sturm
c)Soliman
Neuraxis 03-18-2005, 01:00 AM I saw him fight Raymond Joval (Vargas's next opponent) a year ago, and it was a total shutout with a KD, 120-107. Do I think that he can beat Hopkins? No.
xrhythmxnxbluesx 03-18-2005, 01:10 AM i seen one of his fights... soliman... he was facing this dude with a weird hair style... but yea soliman look tired near the end... if it does come down bhop will wear him down... but is bhop still fighting taylor or is it sturm.... i'm getting confuse...

He actually lost to Solliman too, earlier in his career so I wouldn't exactly say that means a whole lot.

Huh? I don't know if you saying that Joval got a hometown decision, and I haven't seen their first fight, but officially Soliman lost that fight by a score of 114-114, 112-116, and 113-116.

I just meant that Joval wasn't that much worse than Soliman.
joeboxer 03-18-2005, 02:56 AM Forgot this thread wasn't about Vargas.
PessimisticPug 03-18-2005, 03:02 AM solimon is rather ordinary and no wear as technicaly skilled as hopkins. He poses no threat.........Rockin'

the post above yours is talking about the guy your talking about
Soliman can do one thing though - make anyone look sloppy. He is very akward, but not in Hopkins class.
BadMagick 03-18-2005, 07:47 AM I wouldn't mind seeing Lacy v Hopkins. I think Hopkins would win.
Sulpiride 03-18-2005, 11:28 AM A tough decision for Hopkins (against Soliman) but at least Sam won't be as tentative as Eastman was (what a disappointment that was!)....I'm not fussed about seeing this however; Taylor needs to take the Hopkins fight before the old man retires IMO, or his subsequent achievements will be tarnished...

Ha. I like this post of yours. For once.
Neuraxis 03-18-2005, 04:41 PM I just meant that Joval wasn't that much worse than Soliman.
If 120-107 isn't that much worse than Soliman, I don't know what is.
