Vitali Klitschko Was Winning The First Round...Solis Was Done

[Die Antwoord]

This happens a lot in the boxing world, usually its within one fight. A fighter dominates 4 straight rounds, and then in the 5th round, its a bit closer, and the natural reaction is to give the guy who has been getting dominated the round, because he's doing better. This is like how it was with Vitali. Vitali was landing a ton of jabs, moving Solis back, Vitali looked comfortable in the ring and completely uneffected by Solis's right hand. Sorry, if you actually land flush on Vitali, which Solis did once in the entire fight, and vitali respons by throwing a right hook to the body and moving forward...YOU HAVE NO CHANCE. Vitali was landing the jab easily and 3 times in that round countered completely missed combos.

In the last 30 seconds of the round Vitali landed 10 jabs and one power punch. Solis landed 1 power punch and threw just 2 punches. To me, thats domination.

But I get why the untrained eye could think Vitali was taking decent shots, Vitali leans back to avoid punches, so if something lands, it often looks harder than it was because vitali moves back away from them.

Also, Vitali is a notorious slow starter...why, you might ask. For many reasons, 1. He needs to find distance with his right. THat usually takes about a round for him, and 2. It just seems he starts out stiff and its anger that motivates him. Against Gomez...Vitali loked the exact same startion out. The more shots he takes the better he gets, you could see vitali increase his activity with every shot Gomez landed, there actually isnt a shot Solis landed that wasnt followed by at least 3 landed jabs by Vitali.

Also Solis has gassed several times already in his short pro career, he was having to move more than Vitali, and he was taking a lot of shots to the forehead.

Also, and this should let everyone know how bad Vitali wasnt getting close to dominated. If vitali was getting frustrated or hurt at all...WHY THE HELL WOULD HE BE YELLING AT SOLIS FOR NOT CONTINUING. Vitali says he always enters a fight with an A, B and C plan...clearly plan A was working as Vitali clearly wanted to continue the fight.

Get the **** out of here with that man.

I was rooting for Vitali all the way, and Solis won 2:55 of that round. He moved well, landed some decent shots, and really got into his rhythm quickly. He completely dodged some combos from Vitali while standing in front of him when he was against the ropes. None of Vitalis punches outside of his last connected meaningfully.

It was a great first round from Solis and he was clearly winning it until he went down. Until Solis went down, I figured Solis was going to outbox Vitali for three or four rounds, then Vitali would walk him down and KO him.

I thought Solis looked great and was clearly winning that round.

[Rick Grimes]

I actually thought it was a close round, Solis landed some decent harder punches but Vitali landed more. 10-10 round before the KD.

He didnt put a mark on Vitali..yet was bleeding from the forehead...but he was landing the meaningful shots? He was doing ****, Vitali walked through anything you called meaningful and all he was doing was running from Vitali.

Here let me make it simple for you...Vitali landed more punches in the last 30 seconds than Solis did the entire round and you can say Vitali's jabs aren't meaningful punches, but ask people who have taken them.

Funniest thing is Vitali hadnt found the range for his straight right which was going to kill Solis and he still was winning, landing more punches.

You expose yourself as a hater when you say Solis was 2:55 of that fight. HE LANDED ONCE IN THE LAST 30 SECONDS. One shot. Vitali hit him with 10jabs and the right that wobbled him and finished him in that time period.

Vitali had no marks on him, never wobbled or anything, Solis was right in Vitali's hand the entire first round.

And also Solis had 3 leaping combos that hit nothing but air or vitali's shoulder...all 3 wound up with him taking a counter...the last one finished him.

I guess it deosn't matter what the scorecards were for half a round. Not now.

I love how you disagree with the author when he went into such great detail as to what was going on in the feeling out process between both fighters. Solis missed badly on his last combination he threw & yes Vitali was backing him up & pressing the action. Solis didn't seem fazed by it & seemed like he was calm & collected. People are mistaking that as a sign he was winning the rd. How could he have won the rd if Vitali was the one doing most of the punching as he usually does. Solis looked like Apollo Creed dancing around the ring darting in and out..kLITSCHKO was using that time to measure distance as the author stated..

He was looking good to the naked eye but Klitschko was still dictating the rd & if he had such a great rd as peeps here seem to be exaggerating.. why did his offense fail him on the last shots he threw & where was the defense on the last shots Klitschko threw? Keep talking out of your asses people..you all want Vitali to be beaten fairly & squarely that you look for any sign of hope when it's merely a delusion

VK is 6 ft 7 250 lbs of lean & mean machine..can't nobody mess with him EVEN if you bring YOUR TIME MACHINE... & DEEP DOWN ALL THE HATERS KNOW HIS STYLE /STRENGTH/SIZE & SKILL advantages over everyone is impenetratable. There's SIMPLY no way to beat him if he's healthy & injury free.

This is all silly talk considering the fight was over in less than 1 round. Technically i'd last 1 second against a prime mike tyson.

DAMN.... you are bringing it..nothing but the coldhearted truth of what REALLY went down before it got spun for better reading material just so Vitali's dominance can have a ***** in it... good job!

That was the most decisive Ko Ive ever seen in my life. Better than Donaire-Montiel.

With a Ko such as this, you see exactly what happened on the 1st screening. No need for 50 pages of questions and explaination like the fuzzy Martinez KOs.

Solis was knocked out cold, end of story.
