Comments Thread For: Felix Sturm-Sam Soliman Rematch Set For May 31

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Sam Soliman has agreed to return to Germany for a world title fight against IBF middleweight boxing world champion Felix Sturm next month, despite the problems he had over a doping test after their last bout there.

The title fight has been set for May 31, with the host city to be announced on Wednesday.

Soliman, 40, says he has no qualms about going back and is ready to claim a first world title after going unbeaten for the past six years of his 17-year, 56-fight pro career.

Lol Soliman couldnt even beat him using illegal substances and you expect him to beat him now?

Macklin was much more deserving of a rematch than this clown. Dunno y he held out.

He's just going to try and outwork him again. Depending on how Sturm paces himself.... we'll see if he gets outworked by the much older man

I bet Sturm beats him this time around.

Probably, he looked old dispatching an overmatched foe before Sturm.... then looked revitalized against Barker

Sturm had huge troubles landing his jab against Soliman. The jab is Sturm's best weapon. He was barely able to land it, and he faded badly in the 2nd half of the fight. The fact that Soliman won the fight, in Sturm's hometown, while getting dropped in the process should let you know how the judges saw that fight. One fighter was outworking the other, I expect a repeat of that in the rematch.
