    I don't have to read it. You're claiming Solis as elite, that's all I needed to know.

    Just because one is not elite does not make him a bum.

    Grey areas exist.

    As a boxer? I would like to hear your arguments as to why he is ****, is it his footwork, his punching power, his reflexes, his defence, his ring generalship, his timing, his punch resistance, his stamina, what is it exactly that makes a silver medalist in world AM, an undisputed cruiserweight pro champ and a former wba heavyweight champ "****"?

    If you honestly believe that Tyson Fury is a top 5 heavyweight in any era, I doubt anything I say will change your mind. Carry on.

    I see you haven't provided a counter argument, stop being a handicap and at least try and prove your stupid claims right

    The point is that amazing amateur careers do not always translate to amazing professionals.

    That had nothing to do with why solis didn't make a great pro, it was just his lack of discipline
