    Make no mistake, Solis is punishing himself in order to get into great shape for the Vitali fight. Here he is with his trainer and head stamina coach up high in the snowy German mountains. The message is clear: Freezing cold or not, Solis means business!

    Have to wonder though, why is this lazy ******* the only guy wearing jeans? :lol:

    No way they were running out there.

    I bet the snow man they made after the photo was taken looked awesome.

    Well, Solis could surprise us all and come into the ring in shape.

    Remember how much Briggs and his trainer were going on and on about how light he was...the youtube videos, the facebook posts, etc... Briggs claimed he was down to 248, but at the weigh-in he showed up at 262 (Of course Briggs was a ripped 262, and he's 6'4", while Solis is barely 6'1" and not nearly as muscular).

    So you just never know until the weigh-in.

    Those jeans are interesting...you'd think he would have on athletic pants, or sweat pants, something...anything other than jeans.
    And the huge watch? Wouldn't you take that thing off?

    Solis has been watching Rocky IV and studying the blueprint on how to beat a soviet giant.

    Vitali is probably inside some luxurious facility running up treadmills, and testing the PSi on his punches, while Solis is keeping it raw and natural.

    Vitali is in trouble.

    I doubt Solis trains much beyond sparring. Conditioning, dieting, cardio.. forget about it. Maybe him and his genius team think just sparring and ring work is enough.

    I remember Peter's strength coach a couple of years ago was running his mouth about how Peter doesn't need weight or cardio training because of his natural "brute strength" that comes out best just with raw sparring sessions. In hindsight that one-sided approach really sucked for Peter :yep
