    No, mate, he could be fat, but he sure doesnt look that slow... and against Haye he is not gonna pull a Harrison and get there to collect a check... he is gonna go to war.I dont think he can beat the K brothers because their size,but i have a feeling he will take Haye to school.

    when you are reaching for a title belt at HW they dont talk about how much you weight, but about how many fights you win.

    "IF" he gets past Austin(who has NOT been relevant since Wlad mauled him), and he lost 40 lbs, dedicated himself to the sport and took on 4-5 quality fighters in a row, I'd give him a snowballs chance in hell of beating a 43 yo Vitali Klitschko.:lol:

    Wlad is a much better fighter now, than he was seven years ago. (Sanders & Brewster fights). And you are comparing Ibragimov to Julius Long? Come on now...

    I think Solis would be a good test, a good contender, if he was 230 or less....I just don't see him getting down that low in weight, especially when Solis has said he doesn't care about his weight.

    Too fat and slow. However, I wouldn't mind seeing him fight Arreola.

    I read that as well and I find it so ****in stupid. He's saying what Arreola was also saying: I focus on conditioning not my weight. Isn't it related??! Simple exercise to do: go to a stadium and do the stairs. Then do it again with a 5kg weighted vest. The stress u put on ur knees is way bigger and the exercise is also much tougher. Weight matters! At least Arreola was honest saying he can't stop certain food or beer. Just say u a lazy fat-ass and that's all! This guy got the tools but no ****in commitment to the sport. Not worth watching.

    but how did Solis balloon up to the 260s in the first place? If it's because of poor dieting maybe cleaning up his diet could help in the long run

    that's disappointing on Arreola not being able to give up certain foods, sure he has a great record and is Ranked at HW

    but it appears he's limiting himself and his career with poor lifestyle choices.

    Vitali will knock Solis out. Chambers is faster than Solis. Speed does not bother Vitali, never has, he knows how to deal with it and he has speed of his own. Gomez is 6 feet 4 inches tall, had over 300 amateur fights for Cuba and Vitali really busted him up badly.
