Is Odlanier Solis just Another Whale for Vitali to Harpoon?

    Or is he something more?

    Vitali has become quite the whale hunter, hunting down several large mammalian beasts during his storied career.

    Solis seems to fit the profile to me. He had atrocious stamina last time out and came into the ring in truly disgraceful shape.

    It is too bad Solis never got KTFO earlier on in his pro career, that way, he may have actually had to work harder in the gym and be in better shape today.

    Still, Solis has the best raw skills in the HW division. He was the number one amateur in the world at the time, and his skills have transferred well to the pro game. It still looks like his body is the thing that will let him down, due to pure laziness. Thoughts?

    His troubles started before his pro career kicked off but instead of going south from the 240s where he started he kept gaining weight. But fat Solis, ashmuscled Briggs or skinny Adamek, Vitali harpoons them all.

    BTW, I still laugh every time I think of the scene at the weigh-in where Briggs jumps down and scares the living **** out of some photographer

    Solis' blabla about him "not being another contender" makes him as ordinary and predictable blathering the same bullcrap I hear from every opponent on a Klitschko record of victims...

    I disagree. Solis is the one heavyweight I would favour to beat both klitschko's and haye

    Solis wouldn't beat either Klitschko, or Haye.

    Could be... He's got the skills to cause problems for all of them.

    If only the guy worked as hard in the gym as a young Tyson or Holyfield,,, He'd have more speed, more stamina, better mobility, the whole package to go along with his skill.

    But no... These fat fks like him and Arreola keep trying to insist "the weight dosn't matter... I feel comfortable at 260+... I'm stronger...bla bla bla"

    Bull****! How many fatass ATG HW Champions can you think of? :huh
