Klitschko vs. Solis

Until now, I understood that Solis was, more or less, doing very well against Klitschko. Having just seen the video here, it is obvious that litschko was controlling the fight with his left hand and Solis was in NO WAY, doing well. Most of his few sporadic attempts failed to reach Klitschko at all. The RH punch caught Solis above the ear and I suppose until one receives a Klitschko punch, one cannot appreciate the great power available to a 6'8" giant whose remarkable accuracy, as well as power, is always a strong point in his fights..:hitit:

The Klitschko was about to have the most challenging fight that he has had since Lewis. Unfortunately, Solis's knee gave out. Only the ignorant coach potatoes will think that he didn't have a real knee injury. For us current and former athletes, then we know that it doesn't take a lot to tear cartilage or meniscus in the knee. Training puts a lot wear 'n tear on the knees...road work and pivoting to throw hooks can literally shred the knee. I have I had two knee surgeries and two ankle surgeries from playing college football years ago. I've seen guys on the football field and in the boxing gym have similar injuries to Solis's where it looked like nothing happened. Anyway, I like Solis's style of boxing and I think that it is good for boxing. Hopefully, he'll make a strong rebound from this ugly loss. I wonder why this wasn't called a NO CONTEST? I have been saying this all along. This should have been ruled a no contest. He messed up his leg before anything landed, and whatever landed didn't look significant. When he went down the first thing he did was grab his knee, he wasn't hurt or stunned. I wonder if they will try to change the decision.

Of course it was an injury, but it should be a stoppage win for Klitschko. Lets hope for more meaningful opponents for the future. Klitschko deserves it, we deserve it.
