    odlanier solis vs kevin johnson nov 26

    never seen a thread on this fight so I thought i'd add one. this could be a terrible fight to watch since neither lets there hands go with regularity. too bad the WBC world cup is delayed. with magomed out everything changes. winner of this fight could be in a good position. I got solis to win a boring decision... sorry guys I thought I made the poll end the day of the fight. i'm not sure if I can edit the poll...

    This is a good fight. Solis is lazy though and I doubt we will ever see his full potential.

      Didn't hear about this fight. As usual, it depends if Solis is in better shape than last time.

        Does not matter what shape he turns up in Kingpin throws about 5 punches a round and has no more ambition than survival in his fights. Solis should be fighting better opposition but like all the other top 10 heavyweights he is just marking time till the title shot merry go round comes back to him again.

          he has dropped some weight in each fight. when I was in cuba in September I met a guy in the gym there who claimed knew solis. he told me solis likes to take his time & break down his opponent. something he couldn't do in the amateurs because it's only 3 rounds. can I prove this guy knows him? no but he was training in the gym with many locals. he says solis likes to fight. sometimes it seems hard to believe because he looks like he could take a nap in between rounds. I never heard a Cuban say that about solis before. i'll watch this fight if possible but I have a hard time getting excited for it...

                The problem with Solis seems to be that he hardly seemed motivated when he got the shot against Vitali. If he's not motivated for a title shot, when will he ever be? We can hope he's changed his attitude, with the help of the right people. Amazingly wasted talent.

                  The fight is on Boxrec... I think is a part of the under cards of Antonio Tarver vs Mike Sheppard...Good fight and nice to see Solis stay busy...
