    Overweight Odlanier Solis (271 at the scales) stopped in-shape ring veteran Monte Barrett in 2 rounds yesterday. Solis said about the stoppage: "I saw a 40 second clip of Monte Barrett vs. Haye, and I noticed he'd lead the right had too far then he'd drop it. So I knew if I worked my left hook, I'd catch him.

    Let's see how this worked out:

    Barrett BTW got up from this shot but was stopped about a minute later.

    But seriously... Solis looked badly overweigt. I believe that he still has stamina, speed, accuracy and power, but if you knew the Solis of the Olympic games, this is like a caricature of that fighter. To beat the Klitschkos, you need great mobility, quick footwork and very good upper body & head movement, Solis had it all. Now he's just following these B- to D level fighters around, using timing and physical power to rip apart, something would miserably fail vs. the Klitschkos or even vs. a quick mobile boxer like Chambers of the bit slower but well-rounded Povetkin.

    The talent is still there. How about putting some serious work behind it, Mr. Solis?

    He took a page out of Arreola's book. This guy has a LOT of talent, a naturally gifted boxer. But the discipline is lacking and you can rarely if ever LEARN discipline. Either you got with your mother's milk.. or you don't.

    I foresee a Riddick Bowe type career for Solis: A "could have been", but never really will be anything.

    Fat *******. He has all the tools to be somebody which makes it even more frusturating.

    He certainly has the correct nickname, La Sombra, which means The Shade in Spanish. He may have to change his nickmame to The Eclipse.

    Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but are you implying that Arreola also has a lot of talent and is a naturally gifted boxer? :blood
