    Just look at this, does Solis look like he can hold 250, let alone 270lbs?

    ****ing hell, Gamboa has bigger arms than him and larger circumference around his wrists.

    Solis looks pretty weak, and wouldn't be able to match the Klitschkos physically. He better come in at around 225lbs if he wants to take a title, sorry Gamboa Express... Solis has a good background, but he needs some of Gamboas work ethic to go anywhere near the Klits.

    I decided not to root for him until he gets below 250lbs. He won the gold at 200 for Chrissakes! And what a great athlete he was! I understand he moved up to super heavy right after the Olympics, so I guess about 230 should be his natural in-shape weight, but he'll never make that low. But to weight less than 250 pounds is really not too much to ask for such a small heavy. Please!

    Anyway, I think if he comes in a decent shape, he's gonna stop Drummond. You can't deny Solis had success lately, but that's the biggest problem: as long as he beats mediocre opposition with ease like Arreola did, lots of fat, he'll never feel he should get down to a proper weight. And we all remember Arreola entering the ring, and a crying pulp getting out once he faced Vitali.

    Solis is a very dangerous fighter, he will perform well in the heavyweight division. He needs to cut down on his weight though, he's got all the tools, but just lacks the conditioning....

    Didn't Chagaev beat Savon twice in the ams too? We all know what happened to him. If Solis gets in shape however he could beat Wlad.

    268.5 ...damn,is it so hard to lose weight when u r training for a championship match?
    i dont understand what's going on with Solis and his corner.
    chances are he will beat Drummond tomorrow because he is way more talented but taking on the Klitshkos at that weight will be suicide.

    Yeah I know, big let down...I had my hopes high when I posted the article...

    Still, he will go very far in the HV's and be World Champ...

    He needs to leave Miami just like Rigondeaux did and train far away from the Cuban food...

    Nobody wants to see Sammy Peter in a rematch fight with either "K" brother here in 2010........

    Alex Povetkin is a doughboy posing as a serious fighter.......

    Odlainer Solis is a lamb waiting to be butchered by a superior fighter.......
