    Thinking about Ortiz and Cuban boxing, remembered this guy. I believe he is retired, but at one point was praised as the future of HW boxing. Crazy to think he is younger than Ortiz. It's been ages since he fought Vitali and people were saying he would beat Vitali.
    Excellent fighter. His leg collapsed and that was it. Had incredible technical training and talent. Underrated at the time. I miss him. I like the Cuban fighters as a whole, But he was to me something potentially special.

      hit didnt come close to the temple...even Vitali was mad as he thought he thru the damn fight
      it barely brazed his damn hair

          Ok, you can call it the corner of his head if you want to but it doesn't negate the fact that the man got hit, went down because his legs were trashed and he didn't know where they were under him because he was badly dazed. That shot made a loud, audible thud and did a lot of damage.

          1st rd. KO, the end.

            As you can see the leg is already buckling when he jumps in and lands on it. He injured himself.

              Lol yeah right, after he got up from the KD on pure reflex, the guy couldn't operate either leg. Not just his hurt one. You bought the lie because you hate Vitali.

              Nice try to degrade a very good Vitali win over an undefeated Gold medalist though.

              Nice try sport

                he was fat and planted wrong, he ended himself..no shot at Vitali but he did nothing to end it..and his reaction after the fight showed that

                  Vitali himself didn't think it was a legit win, which is why he was angry.

                      He wanted to inflict more damage. He was a sadistic fighter and had a mean streak, that's what I liked about him.

                      Definitely a landed punch and a KO.

                      Solis had no control over either leg because he got KTFO. It's clear to see when the ref helped him back to his corner. I've been over this a million times so yeah, I'm an expert on this.
