not sayin that he will become champ, but he aint no chump. When he came to my home town about a month ago he didnt look bad. Started out slow then his corner told him what to do, he did it, and he won. A real people person. Dont forget, bernard could have fought soliman but instead he fought taylor.Comment

I know he's a nice guy. but I don't judge fighters like that. I'm not impressed with this guy & I don't think he deserves to be the #1 ranked guy.Originally posted by RastaSmokernot sayin that he will become champ, but he aint no chump.

what fights have you seen. He has only had three major television fights.Comment

One fight was enough for me, I saw his last fight against Fernando Zuniga. After Taylor beats Bitchkins again, I rather see Taylor fighting a guy like Winky, Strum or Lacy then Solimon. Even Eastman will be a better fight.Originally posted by RastaSmokerwhat fights have you seen. He has only had three major television fights.Comment

about who he should fight next i agree, but to use one fight as a basis for your whole argument is ridiculous. Lewis looked like **** against McCall, ali looked like **** against holmes, tszyu v hatton. etc....Originally posted by ParodiusOne fight was enough for me, I saw his last fight against Fernando Zuniga.

Just look at Solimon's record & the people he has fought. Lewis got knocked out with one punch, that was different. I saw enough from Solimon & I don't want to see it again.Originally posted by RastaSmokerabout who he should fight next i agree, but to use one fight as a basis for your whole argument is ridiculous.

How is it a joke that he is ranked #1? The joke is the fact that you would even bother commenting on this issue when he have only seen one of his fights (a fight that he won 99-91, 99-91, 96-93 mind you). What more could the guy possibly do? Lets look at his career:Originally posted by ParodiusIt's a joke that this guy is ranked #1. This guy will never be a champion.
- 7 losses, all came at a time when he was concentrating more on kickboxing than boxing and 4 of them were in his opponents backyard.
- Never been dropped
- His last loss was against Anthony Mundine which was a flat out robbery. Since then he has reeled off 19 straight wins.
- Has fought 17 times in the last 3 years.
- Has learnt to sit down on his punches as evidenced by 8 KO's in his last 10 fights.
- Dropped Raymond Joval for the first time in his career on route to winning 120-107, 120-107, 119-108.
- Not that it matters but has the personality promoters dream their champs would have.Comment
