    Shawn Cox fought at light heavyweight as an amateur, and at cruiserweight as a pro. He was KOed last year by Denis Lebedev:

    Solis needs to step it up and fight a top 10 guy or retire. Why is he bothering fighting C-level opposition (when he doesn't even impress in the process)?

    Weak.

    Then again, recall what happened last time a guy named Shaun with a similar record fought a fat slickster who had spent years at heavy despite belonging at cruiser...:think

    Agree. This would be a step down from Larsen. He at least needs to start fighting name, top 30 guys again. Pianeta's free.

    A great talent. But as I mentioned in a Dirrell thread, talent is only 10% of it.

    I don't know, maybe that will come after Cox?

    Manuel Charr recently tweeted something about going into the WBC tourney.
