    Sam Soliman

    every one keeps saying that Wade looked Bad in this fight, has anyone looked good against Soliman? its an honest question because i don't think i even watched one of Soliman's fights, but have seen some highlights here and there.

    Soliman was one of those borderline journeyman that tested every fighter. He had a crazy chin and a good motor in his heyday. The concerning thing with the Wade fight is that Wade was in there with a 40+ year old version of Sam and still struggled big time.

    Golovkin KO within 4 rounds incoming.

      I would agree with you except the 40+ version (-1 year) beat Felix Sturm twice the year before... now again i didn't watch those fights i just go based on the record so i could be way off.

        Nice try OP. The fight is still a farce.

          Dude lost to a completely shot and mentally unstable Jermain Taylor right before beating Wade and getting robbed.

            Soliman is similar to Sakio Bika. Very beatable if you're a good fighter but you're not going to come out of it looking spectacular.

              I think Taylor dug down and had something that night, man. I was expecting him to get bum rushed and gas out, but he looked pretty ****ing good for being shot to shit/mentally ******ed.

                  I think it had more to do with Soliman being 41 years old. Let's face Taylor won't look good against a good MW. And Taylor is my second fave fighter of all time after Roy.

                    i know taylor is far removed from his prime but did he look good in his win vs. Soliman?
