Comments Thread For: Odlanier Solis Released By Top Rank, Signs With King

[PR Boxer]

I guess we didn't realize how ******-esque Solis really was.

[ChopperRead]

I AGREE!!!

Top Rank really wasn't doing much for him to be honest and Don King will be able to focus more on him and help him get the fights he want within that division

Solis need to get in shape though but he has does have the skills and the power

King did a really great job messing up Valuev's proposed fight with Vitali, as Valuev himself said recently.

OK...but I don't think Valuev ever wanted to fight Vitali anyway

[-PANDA-]

good now lets see him fight someone that will actually test him

panda wants to see arreola-solis

King also told Valuev not to fight Haye, which was good advice.

[ShoulderRoll]

Maybe one of the Klit sisters will fight Solis now. Instead of subjecting us to seeing them in against the Shannon Briggs and Albert Sosnowkis of the world.

King is what, 125 years old. ha! Lately his promotional ability has resulted in more fighters getting layoffs and being inactive more than a quick title ranking like it was once known for.

[norway]

Could not be better for him !! Now he can beat up Haye first who he allready beat in and stopped in the amateurs :-)

T.R is way too busy promoting lower weight class fighters which is where big money is. the HW division is dead, good move by Arum.

king will get him a few big fights but solis has to take advantage & win.if he doesnt then he will be an after thought...you must make money for don king or you get put on the shelf...ask chris byrd,ray austin,etc...golota kept losing but could pack MSG & thats why he got so many fights.at one point jameel mccline kept getting fights too because he was surpisingly marketable in the states.valuev made king some money in europe even though king & sauerland split the money which also took away from valuevs purses....solis is marketable amongst cuban fans so king will get him a few big fights.that i guarantee but he has to win them but more importantly he has to stay popular amongst the cuban fans.as long as they come out to see solis,king will have him fighting.
