don't know what the weights were but there are some pics on facebook.. Solis looks as usual.. http://facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=700305493341463&id=120326804672671
Looks like Solis was looking the opponent in the eyes this time on face-to-face. He usually doesn't, just like the most Cubans.
Terrible weights for these guys. Both need to retire as they obviously haven't got the discipline or hunger to train like a real athlete should train. At least TT made the best of his very limited talent but Solis is just a complete waste of space for wasting his rather superior talent.
Gee, ever care to wonder if these guys are of the endomorphic somatotype which inhibits there ability to lose large quantities of fat? I think its genetic with these guys. They'll never have physiques that are comparable to Wlad's, or Wilders; especially in these later stages of their respective careers.
They're athletes. Their conditioning is sublime, and second to none when compared to the average plebeian. In heavyweight boxing, I don't think a fighters physique is reflective of their general conditioning. Thompson always comes in for a good fight, and he will be ready for Solis come tomorrow.
yeah but among their peers they dont train as hard and damn sure dont watch what they eat. Solis when he turned pro was about 215 pounds....now weighing 40 pounds more is a sign of just being lazy. physiques are a absolutely a sign of conditioning....look at tyson fury a year ago, he was starting to look ripped, even with abs.....and in his last fight he was fat.....tells you everything yes TT will come to fight, but he is slow as the day is long and he is 42 years old...he will come to fight and lose, just like his last fight
Would you say David Price has good cardiovascular conditioning? :think Regardless of him being leaned out, and having a physique most heavyweights including Thompson would be envious of, he still burns fuel at a faster rate than a 18 wheeler going 100 on the highway within the course of less than 5 rounds. It's an interesting topic to say the least.
