Ahmet Oner said Solis will likely be fighting Wlad

[ИATAS]

Serious question: since Solis lost to VK what has he done to earn a title shot?

Nothing. Not worse than Jean Marc Mormeck though.

That's what's wrong with the hw division though, guys like Mormeck or Rahman getting title shots without earning them. If you give a guy like Solis a title shot then what message does that send to the rest of the division? That's why you don't see the top guys facing eachother - if you get a shot without fighting the best then why do it?

You're damn right about earning a shot but I would say the problem with the HW division is lack of talent and lack of competition for the Klitchkos. I mean who is out there? Povetkin ? I guess he's next after Solis and he's been a massive disappointment too.

I don't mind this fight. I like Solis. Sure he's a fat ass but he's got skills. If he can keep his body together (big if) it could be a good fight.

Solis reportedly in shape, he's been preparing for this fight for awhile.
