Sam Soliman

Been watching the contender have to say i'm really impressed with the professionalism of this guy.... I'm a little ahead of most in the series but the guy has really learnt to get the most out of his body and he's such a nice fella. What a credit to boxing! More fighters setting this kind of example would be gr8 for the sport.

its always good 2 c that in a boxer,look at hopkins aswell if he didnt look after his body so well there no chance he would still b goin so strong at 42,these guys r real insparation

Unfortunately I think he is showing signs of "shot-ness". He is a very likeable chap, and I hope he stops his career before he gets seriously hurt by somebody, the 168'ers are simply too big for him.
Mundine pounded him bad and dropped him several times, something that had never happened before, and against Alexander he was clearly hurt in the second round and was close to going down there also.
I think he'll meet Bika in the Contender semis considering they are no.2 and no.3 in the power rankings right now, and I hope Bika won't manhandle him too much. Both fighters are a lot different from when they first met, and I'm afraid this won't end good for Soliman this time.

Thanks for the breakdown my friend.

Sadly you have put my worst fears into words.

I too hope Sammy retires before he gets badly hurt.

He has and is an ornament to his sport.

Sam is a great guy I have pleasure of being in his company a few times.

see what I mean its not often you can come on here and have someone not say one bad word about a guy... I hope he becomes a trainer he's got gr8 knowledge.
