How long will Solis last against Vitali?
Collapse
-
I say he lasts the full 12, but with a very battered and swollen face at the end of it. Vitali's punching power has declined and Solis' high guard and subtle slipping movements will take the edge off many shots that do land, and I even think he's going to land a fair few shots of his own. Solis, despite his weight, has pretty good timing and fast hands and knows how to mix up his offense to take advantage of openings. He can easily turn his jab into a jarring left hook, and come over the top with his right as a counter to an opponent's jab. Just analysing the Austin fight Vitali will have success with his jab and with the odd overhand right, but his biggest punch will be the uppercut which Austin was landing with a decent degree of success through Solis's guard (although eating a lot of counter left hooks in return). I don't expect Vitali to lose, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him struggle for the first few rounds, as he adjusts himself to Solis's rhythm.Comment

Also how doesn't he look like Butterbean at that height and weight? The bloke doesn't even look obese really, if I'm honest, just really stocky and solid.Im 6'1 and a half, the excact same height as solis, and i keep myself in good shape, the most i ever weighed was 217lbs, back when i was drinking protein shakes and weight gainers and lifting a lot of weights, i maxed out at that.
271lbs that solis weighed that time, i just don't understand how he could carry so much weightComment

^^^^yeah that made a lot of sense. In fact you've convinced me...
...that you are just dumb. Almost as dumb as that hexagon theory you just threw at me.
VK intimidates fighters. Just using Savon as an example of why Solis will not be intimidated.Comment

Muscle weighs more than fat.
That being said though, he can trim it down a bit. 250lbs is probably his best fighting weight.
Your longer post was spot on too.Comment
