Sweet, that should be a good fight. I was hoping he'd unify with Sosa, but Solis is more of a challenge. -
I hate to say it (HUGE Calderon fan) but I can see him being stopped. I think he's the best techincal boxer in the game. But he never had power, lost even more with the move up and was rocked by Hugo, and I think Solis punches even harder. Plus, I think Solis is a better boxer than Hugo, in general.
I feel bad too, I just wish Calderon was a natural welterweight, with his skill set. He'd be unstoppable.

Damn good bout, Calderon's skill set will allow him to win the fight even though I think Solis is more dangerous than Hugo Iron boy will pull it out. His boxing is just that damn good.Comment

I will not go against Calderon in this fight. Calderon has a lot of heart and boxing skill. Solis is damn good, but let's see him with a guy whose feet are just so educated. Ulises Solis beats everyone in those weight divisions.
Except for Ivan "Iron Boy" Calderon.Comment
