The heavyweight rematch between Odlanier Solis and Tony Thompson, taking place on February 27th, is now heading to Turkey, according to Solis´ promoter Ahmet Oener of Arena Box. Solis-Thompson was first set to take place in Budapest, but the whole show was cancelled after some problems between the local promoters.

Thompson won a decision over the Olympic gold medal winner in March of last year. Since then their rematch has been postponed a number of times.

Why?
Why bother? Who the hell wants to watch this? There must be some entertainment starved Turks willing to part with almost 3 Turkish lira each.
The purse for this fight probably equals about $268.

They got solis to sign by offering both a pre-fight and post-fight buffet.

And they told Tony Thompson he could use his AARP card at the hotel.

An awful fight. I predict two minute rounds, the bell ringing to signal the end of the round when Solis is in trouble and a robbery.

I misread the post. Solis and Thompson are going to fight over a turkey. Winner takes all.

I see Solis winning a split decision but choking on a drumstick.
