Finally he emerges from the shadows. I just mentioned him couple weeks ago. Must've been a pretty bad injury and people thought he faked it. I'm sure Klitschko's "punch" was the cause of Solis' knee blowing out... -_-. Solis was actually having pretty good success for as long as it lasted.

You guys really thought Vitali was winning that round huh?

Based on a KO punch that ended the fight, very much so. Had Solis gotten up, Vitali would've won the round by 10-8 score, so yea, Vitali was winning.

Exactly! Cause unbeknownst to Solis fans, Vitali knocked Solis down. It is in the rulebooks: punch lands, fighter falls, punch cause knockdown, knockdown scores 2 points. Guess they forgot that little fact.

[Mr. Invincible]

No, sorry. The Klitschko's are undoubtedly the best Heavyweights right now, but they are not the most talented.

Physically gifted, yes. Most dominant, yes.

Most talented, no.

I disagree seeing as how Vitali proved who was more talented by a mile.

Now, in pure terms of talent, Wladimir is the more programmed of the two brothers while Vitali seems to have a sixth sense in the ring. He's definitely the most talented heavyweight since Lennox Lewis. I don't think there is any queston about that.

And who cares if Solis was doing well. A jogger can be in great health, have a heart attack, get carried away on a stretcher and do you think someone in the crowd is saying "Wow, he is in such great health"? Hell no. End of round 1 either 10-8 or 10-9, Vitali won the round and won the fight. Live with it Solis nut-huggers.

[Mr. Invincible]

Not true. Sorry, but that punch was nothing and definitely didn't cause a KO, or KD or anything. Vitali is skilled, but is not a one-punch KO artist. He's more of a volume puncher, as can be seen by the Adamek, Arreola, and Briggs fights.

Weight on the knee, torn ligament, down he goes. It happens in sports and boxing is no different.

Vitali definitely turned his legs to jello with the shot and caused him to injure himself. The replay clearly shows that so I'm not sure what you watched.

Solis is easily the third best heavyweight, and that's with or without Haye being retired. And I'm a bigger Vitali fan than most, but you're fooling yourself if you don't think Solis was winning that first round. As long as he isn't hampered by his injury and long layoff, he should prove himself to be a force again.

Good to know he finally will be back, let's se if he'll take his business seriously and finally get in decent shape once (I doubt that though).

For you Klitschko fanboys....



It was at :15 into the video... Vitali threw a jab which CLEARLY missed after a hook that hit Solis and CLEARLY DID NOT HURT HIM. You can tell it did not hurt him, Solis stood his ground and that punch barely had any force behind it. He then tried to back up from the jab that missed over his guard. THAT'S when his knew blew out.

[Mr. Invincible]

Solis 2012>>>>>> prime Haye.

How can you say that when he hasn't even fought this year or even since his injury?

I have a strong su****ion that Solis might very well have beaten vitali if he diddent blow his knee..

Lol, what gives that impression?

And get the **** out of here with the vitali knocking him out with that one punch BS.

How can you dispute that? Vitali hit him, deflated him with one shot and he injured him because he was wobbled. Vitali may not have knocked him out cold, but he definitely caused the weariness that ended the fight in injury.
That's fact.

Lol I see they posted the video, my bad. If you think that one bs hook wobbled Solis then you need glasses. Solis is a little soggy but he got some muscle definition on him, just look at his traps lol.
