    But people knew he had chin issues coming out of the amateurs.

    Did they? I seem to remember Harrison being really hyped when he turned pro, like he was the second coming of Lennox Lewis. He was given millions of dollars to fight bums in his early fights by a British TV company. Although, admittingly I don't think it took fans long at all to realize he was not what he was hyped to be.

    I compare Oldanier Solis body to Juan Diaz body. It made for fighting not for bodybuilding.

    Kretschman systematically dismantled his American foe Otis Tisdale stopping him in round 5. Promising talent he is!
    To be cool as a cucumber in a box ring isnt that bad,but I somehow think that this will turn out to be his weak spot. He lacks any emotion at all. He is a robot,a big one with a good punch,but hell he at times fights as if he is under the influence of a sleeping drug.Too lethargic,too passive too often!
    I have absolutely no doubt that he will be able to beat the lower echelon of the b fighters at heavy weight,but as soon as he comes up against stiff and good opposition who can take his punches he will lose by point decisions.
    No way that he can mix it up with the top dogs at heavy weight.

    By the way I would love to watch Solis take on his stable mate Kretschman in one of his next fights.
    IMO he would lose to Solis,but he would give him hell and push Solis to test uncharterd water.
