I invite all true boxing fans to watch the video and make up their own mind.

I invite all true boxing fans to understand the rules of boxing, how punches are scored, what qualifies as a knockdown and what does not. The latter of which at this point is not up for debate, but lodged in a conclusive fact.Comment

Hint: First analyze on who you think is ahead before the knockdown, who was ahead after the knockdown, and what the affects are from a high on the head equilibrium punch, the exact same punch that has disoriented and caused many fighters to either wobbled and or drop, sometimes hurting themselves in the process.Comment

Honestly, dude, I thought Solis looked pretty good, and the fight promised to be competitive, but it's a moot point. Whether Odlanier was winning the round or not, he went down after being punched. That knockdown would've won Klitschko the round, had the fight continued.
I've made my thoughts on the circumstances of the KD known many times, but it's all academic. There's just no way, on the strength of one round, we'll ever know what the outcome of a twelve round fight would've been.
I just hope that Solis gets his house in order and starts to take his career seriously. The man obviously has ability. He might get a chance to show what he's really got against Wlad in the future, but he'll probably never get another crack at Vitali. He had his chance.Comment

If Solis wants to make some noise in the division, he needs to get on a Jenny Craig plan. He still has time.Comment

It's impossible to tell how heavy Solis is based on the pictures recently posted, but he doesn't appear any heavier than before. I was concerned Odlanier might weigh over 300 pounds after such a long layoff, recovering from a knee injury. Solis is probably within reasonable range of a decent number. He demonstrated he can take the pounds off when he fought Vitali. Odlanier should've been doing that all along. Now it's a matter of getting serious and shedding the weight in sensible fashion. Solis needs to show up ready to fight every time out.Comment

I am a true fan, just because I have a picture of Vitali on my avitar doesn't automatically make me a bias fan that doesn't understand the physics of the sport. Been following it for 20+ years and pretty much have seen every meaningful fight since Douglas-Tyson.
All anyone needs to see is how hurt Solis was when he tried to get up and his knee had nothing to do with him getting up so slow. Had he not been so weary from the punch he would have reached his feet faster and realized that his knee was hurt to a point that he could not put his weight on it. Instead he got up slow as hell and appeared groggy as can be. Ko1.Comment

What a joke of a post. Yes Vitali did win fair and square, he didnt send Solis down with an illegal move and so the result of the Solis injury was a Vitali win. Moreover, as someone else said we cant tell how a 12 round fight wouldve gone based on the one round.
But this post is delusional as can be. He was clutching at his knee the second he went down and got up slowly because of the knee. You dont even have to go as far as to say that he stumbled to the canvas because of the injury (which to me he clearly did).Comment

The 'latter' is definitely up for debate guy. Who the f#ck are you to be judge and jury of what fans can and can't debate on. I laugh at your contradictory style, sounding like a flip-flopping HBO commentator. You speak facts, yes but at the same time prove to be a pon pon shaking K-Bros lover.
If you're going to preach on what a 'true boxng fan' should be like then at least try to appear a tad bit neutral and not a Klitschko cheerleader.Comment
This guy at it again
