Wladimir Klitschko VS Odlanier Solis..

[BendOver]

Now watch on youtube what Vlad did to Austin.

Here we go with the traingle theory...

I'm with you. The guy is such a waste it's stomach-turning. What makes it even more painful is that, despite Solis's deplorable physical condition, he still looks surprisingly good. I don't know if he was ever good enough to beat either Klitschko, but he was certainly good enough to make you think he might.

Just reading my post back, i should clarify its Wlad im done watching!
Solis i still watch but as good as he still is (even in his shape) he has been a massive let down. He's a better opponent than most for Wlad and looked like he was handling himself Very well in the Vitali fight as short as it was Until his own weight buckled his knee basically

Be great if he could drop the excess weight and make a real dedicated run at the championship because the ability is there. Kinda reminds me of a Heavyweight Cotto style wise

Wow. I can't believe I never saw that before. I agree. There are similarities.

I was done with my wishful thinking on Solis a few years ago. I've believed for a while now that Odlanier will never live up to expectations. The guy's a tease. lol He'll always seem like he's right there, but he'll never...quite...make...it....

[KO'er]

Maybe if there was stipulation that Solis would have to weigh below 235lbs for the fight to be made.

But then the fight would never happen.

..I think would be a solid fight.

Povetkin although restrained by constant clinching vs Wlad really did not show any versatility, which to me demonstrates his very limited chances even if the **** ref Pabon would have severely warned Wladimir.

Solis has been 3-0 since his knee injury, and looked somewhat impressive in his last outing knocking out a 29-2 opponent in 7 rds.

Wladimir in neutral ground, with a neutral referee, would be in a world of hurt vs La Sombra, Odlanier Solis.

I lost my hope for Solis. Once a big fan, im verry disapointed in his lackluster performances and his lack of dedication and work ethic. He comes in totally out of shape and his 3 fights sinse loosing against Vitali were a farce. I hoped he would learn something from the vitali fight but now he is even worse than ever before. This version of Solis has no better chance to beat Wladimir than Povetkin. I even think Klitschko would stop Solis, his conditioning is just to bad to go 12 rounds with Wladimir. He needs to get down to 230 pounds but that will never happen.

Solis can beat any HW in the world, with the proper motivation.

Solis can beat any HW in the world, with the proper motivation.

based on what? he flopped in his biggest fight with vitali. the leg injury was unfortunate but it did happen from a right hand that clearly buckled him. he needs to beat a live body impressively before exalting him into a top fighter

[damit305]

Not meaning to be a **** or shoot your thread down but i genuinely couldnt give a ****, im done watching him. Solis was a guy i was excited about early in his career, he hasn't came on like i had hoped but is still good despite his horrendous weight gain. But in truth it does nothing for me as a fight fan

You should probably consider your position. Simply because you think a fighter is not worthy given conditioning and inactive shouldn't mean you would never care to watch them again. All it takes is that one big win. Solis still holds an above average skill set to beat most of the top fighters.

Solis besides the over the top criticism he receives due to weight and inactivity hasn't really let down regardless of what happened in the 1 rd vs Vitali. Until he is clearly put out of his "misery", I will continue to support him whether he is a bit chubby and mismanaged.

[damit305]

lmao

He makes me look like AnonymousGuyNYC. lol

Lmao! You're just "GUYNYC" next to that fugger.

[damit305]

Solis is one of the most skilled boxer in the HW division and he should be able to beat any fighter out there but he lacks focus and disciplin. Let's first see how he handles a top ten fighter.

Agreed with this post. Will he be given the opportunity to fight any top 10 though? Word is has been inactive, however he's fought twice in 2013, possibly another one bf years end.
