The fight is up on Youtube and I haven't got around to watching the whole thing, but I heard it was a huge robbery over in Argentina. This Lazarte fighter is one of the dirtiest fighters I've ever seen man. The guy was getting away with a ton of things and has one of the ugliest styles ever. I all demand we boo this man.
I didn't think it was a bad decision Solis started well, he boxed well behind his jab keeping Lazarte off-balance and unable to rush inside. When Lazarte did come forward Solis showed some nice counter-punches and counter-combo's to back him off and keep him away, and give him something to think about. Solis has actually really improved as a boxer since losing. In the fourth Lazarte lost a point for hitting Solis round the back of the head with a wild right, I thought it was harsh as it seemed to be his first infraction, slightly after that Solis pulled an on-rushing Lazarte to the ground and Lazarte on his knees just mashed him in the balls with a right hand. There both hard wee ****ers. After the fourth it seemed to get quite dirty and wild. Lazarte started to rush in more and more with his two fisted swinging attack, and he really roughed up Solis on the inside and messed up his rhythm. Although with his swinging right hand he seemed to catch Solis every time in the back of the head and it was really bothering Solis, yet inexplicitly the referee did nothing about it. It stayed like this till the seventh where Solis got some good boxing going again, but Lazarte came back in the eighth and ninth. In the tenth Lazarte lost another point for back of the head punching, but in reality he probably should have been DQ'd by now, as Solis was grimacing in pain every time he was hit on the back of the head and it was really effecting him bad. Lazarte took the tenth though with his two fisted attacks and crude rushes. Solis managed to get some smoothness in his boxing by the eleventh but every time Lazarte got inside he hurt Solis abit but I felt Solis nicked the round. The last was close with Lazarte edging it on workrate IMO. Lazarte: 5,6,8,9,10*,12 1P.D 4**,10** Solis : 1,2,3,4***,7,10*,11 Total: 114-112 Solis (6-5-1) *= 9-9 round **= for rabbit punching ***= 10-8 round Lazarte to me is very crude and not very good but he would be very hard to beat. He has awkward rushes that he comes in with both hands winging wildly. But he has quite fast feet and comes in low so he can be quite hard to counter coming forward. He is also immensely strong and tough. I'd say he is the 'hardest' guy in boxing today. He is a very poor man's Pascual Perez Solis had reinvented himself as a pretty decent boxer puncher though, he could be hell against a more tradition textbook fighter IMO, especially if he still has that power. All in all though, i thought the draw was fair enough. The first was close as was the eleventh.
