Was Solis on his way to outpointing Vitali before his knee caved in?

    It was way too soon to tell. I doubt he would have won that fight. Vitali would have worn him down and stopped him, in my opinion.

    No vitali knocked him down with a punch. Over time it would have just gotten worse. I would have liked to seen it play out though. It's not vitali's fault that solis didn't go get a few wins right after. If he would of won a few fights impressively and the fans wanted to see it. I'm sure there would have been a rematch.

    Solis had a plan that may have worked. No doubt he's talented.
    He didn't have a body that could have put that plan into place however. He needed to be in the best shape of his life.

    The way he was, you'd have to say a mid-late rounds stoppage due to accusation of punches and fatigue was on the cards.

    :nono

    Punch landed before the knee went out video clearly shows that. And yes it was a love tap just shows how bad Solis' Punch Resistance is. Awful.

    Like I said for a guy whose best win is Barrett or Austin people sure talk him up on here. I don't care what he did in the Amateurs. It is Irrelevant.

    The idea that the KO was down to the punch and not a knee is a joke.

    His knee went due to his fat ass and poor footwork.

    I remember when the fight was stopped I think it was Jim Watt that says " that punch would have ko'd a horse " all the while it wasnt even a punch that stopped it :lol::lol:

    I dont remember that at all.

    If that was the case......why is vitali waving the guy up? he seems disgusted that he went down. vk assumes it was that shot when it was in fact he knee. solis sits up and holds the knee. There is no doubt it was a knee issue.

    looked like a typical Vitali fight to me. I think it would have been a easy boring 12 round UD for Vitali if Solis would not have blew out his knee. I seen nothing in the round that made me think he had a chance to win. My god he could not even KO glass chin Ray Austin.

    I scored the round for Solis up until the KD. Which seems like a bit of a freak thing. Vitali himself looked baffled when it happened.

    Solis was doing well countering Vitalis pawed jabs with his overhand right for about 2 minutes, then his extreme obesity got in the way of whatever plans he had and he went down.

    There's a reason someone is asking was he on his way to outboxing him.

    yeah and Ruiz was on his way to outboxing Tua....

    See how stupid this sounds? :rofl:patsch

    It wasn't even 3 minutes of action and we can conclude that is how the fight would have went?

    Only thing that fight told us was how awful Soils Punch Resistance is.

    When did I say about how the fight would have went, you blind ****?

    I said, up until the KD, I had Solis winning the round.
