Ulisis Solis VS Brian Viloria

I'm taking him via SD.

Didn't Solis lose every round to Nelson Dieppa a couple of years ago?

 

Fair do's, I didn't know it was 5 years ago I thought it was like early 07 or late 06 or something.

 

Try a poll. I want to say Solis by close decision. A KO can come from either fighter though. Depends on who catches who first.

 

I don't know how Viloria fell off the radar.

I think he'll lose. He doesn't have 'it'.

 

Solis UD or late TKO.

 

hometown boy viloria, in the fight of his life.

 

Viloria is the Jameel McCline of the junior flyweight division. He might be able to outskill Solis (doubtful), but even if he does it won't matter because he doesn't throw enough, and he doesn't finish guys off when he has them hurt. If he has his head back on his shoulders (the "old" Viloria), I guess he has a decent chance, especially where he'll have the crowd behind him.

 

I was gonna say the Rocky Juarez of the 108 pound division.

 

mccline and juarez do seem to get lots of title shots and came up short like brian has, but there is a difference. brian brutally knocked out the flyweight champ and took his belt in one round. mccline and juarez havent held belts, and likely never will.
and lets not forget that contreras was battered into a coma damn near death in a fight with viloria. you ever almost kill someone at your job? if not, could you understand how that would make you a little more timid?
i hope thats all just water under the bridge. the kid has looked pretty good his last couple of fights and he knows this could be his last shot to revive his career. look for brian to fight with an intensity we all thought was lost for good.

 

juarez doesn't have a one punch that can change the outcome of a fight....but i like the comparision in the sense that these two fighter are legit two divisional fights going up and down...viloria had been back and forth from 108 to 112 to 108

 

donaire and viloria are not really good friends before.. it's because of viloria's accomplishments and donaire is jealous of viloria's career.. donaire is pissed off ofter his olympic qualifying loss to viloria and when they turned professional, donaire brothers accused viloria of ducking them.

but now i feel that they are more than in good terms now

 

viloria is in a fight for his life. he cant afford to lose anymore and especially not on his home turf.

im not so confident in him though. ive seen his last fights and he doesn't seem to have it anymore.

 

Anyone know what time this card starts in the U.S?
