Alexander Pavlov reports that former European heavyweight champion Wladimir Virchis (25-2, 20KOs) of Ukraine will take part in the training camp of undefeated Odlanier Solis, as the Olympic gold medal winner prepares for his bout with WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko on March 19 at the Lanxess-Arena in Cologne, Germany.
Virchis seems to be a popular selection for Klitschko opponents. In 2009, Virchis was helping David Haye prepare for the failed fight with Wladimir Klitschko, and Virchis also participated in the preparation of Solis' countryman Juan Carlos Gomez, when he prepared for his fight with Vitali Klitschko.
