    I ve decided to spend some big bucks to watch Vitaly vs Sam live in Germany's capital Berlin.Very much hope that their encounter wont fall short of my high expectations.
    I am quite glad that there will be some very interesting undercard fights.

    Belarussian based former K1 fighter Alexander Ustinov (12-0) will take on American Julius Long(15-9). Two giants on coallision course. Should be a fascinating fight and a good test for the behemoth from Belarus.

    Great and very promising Cuban heavy weight hope Odlanier Solis(12-0) will square off against Australian Chauncy Welliver(35-4).
    Have never seen that Aussie fight neither live nor on tv. I hope that he will try to put up a decent show of boxing and make his Cuban foe sweat for some rounds!

    German based Albanian Haxhi Krasniqui(24-2) will showcase his skills against a very limited opponent from Germany, a certain Sven Hasselhoff(6-8).

    The most interesting undercard fight will probably be Ismail Sillahk's fist pro fight in europe. The former Ukranian amateur star and olympian will face a teak tough and durable opponent. Armen Azizian's fight record(9-8) is quite misleading. Germany's cruiser weight hope Tino Gross(6-0) had a death and life struggle with this Armenian roughouse in his last outing to a ring.
    Azizian has also gone the full route with known names like David Kostecki,Igor Bursak,and Pawel Kolodziej.
    Sillahk turned pro in the USA about 2 months ago and has scored 3 ko victories in 3 fights in the paid ranks.
    Very tough matchmaking for Sillahk.Azizian is a dangerous fighter.

    Welliver is an American fighter, who moved to Australia.

    Welliver is often over weight, plays the the crowd, and lack a big punch. Solis will have a field day.

    I still think this fight deserves a better undercard.

    Solis and Ustinov opponents are bum's

    but it dosen't matter **** Rtl will only show the main fight.

    long is defenitly a bum he got ko'ed by Tye Fields and hasn't beaten anyone.

    Welliver fought only no names and draw with Chad Van Sickle
    who got ko'ed by Solis in 1 round

    Don't get me wrong it's great that solis and Ustinov are on the undercard but
    they should fighting someone like Sprott, Meehan or Vidoz

    I think we can't watch the undercard fight's anyway

    Welliver is from Washington; he just started fighting out of NZ recently. He grew up with my friends family. Once again he is not "kiwi".

    Looking forward to Odlanier Solis' fight, this guy seems to be rising pretty well and should bring some interesting fights in the future.

    I can't believe they matched ustinov against julius long...yeah he matches up hight but for a big guy he is weak as hell. Has amazing reach but since he is so weak his jab is horrible and on many of these forums people talk about glass jaw boxers well he has probably the worst one i have ever saw.

    Im very curious to see how that solis is coming along since there has been some hype around him so it should be a great night of boxing...GO VITALI!!!

    RTS shows only the main fight.
    ADF adn ARD shows some of the undercard fights after the fussball or icesleding show in between.
    But at least we have three main channels giving us fairly good free fights.

    Enjoy your self...I was there in Hanover when Wlad ran unexpectedly into Sanders.
    I don't think though Peters can side step.

    Your definition of a bum seems to be a very harsh and tight one,mate!
    Long went the full route with Solis showing a quite decent performance against the Cuban talent. Do you really think that a bum can go the full distance with someone like Solis?
    Since I have never seen Welliver I cant really comment on him.

    As for your statement that Solis and Ustinov should fight someone like Sprott,Mehan,or Vidoz I would like to point out that both the Cuban and Ustinov have only had 12 fights in the paid ranks up to now.
    Vidon is scheduled to fight Skelton for the european title.
    Both Sprott and Mehan are too huge a step for Solis and Ustinov right now.
    Lets not forget that we are speaking about pro fighting.Good matchmaking is an important part of the game.
    Ustinov is an unproven former K1 fighter. He has power and a decent punch,but you must be daydreaming to consider him to be ready to take on someone like Sprott in his 13th pro fight.

    Ustinov totally destroyed Long in the very first round of their encounter. Very impressive performance by the powerful Belarussian behemoth.
    Solis had shown a quite lame display of boxing against a fat American journeyman in the previous fight.He had also gone the full route with Long in one of his previous fights struggling to win a close fight which really reflects quite badly on the young Cuban talent.
    Solis still has to learn one or two things before considering to share the ring with decent opponents with a decent punch.
    Ustinov seems to be ready to take on bigger names at this stage of his career.

    By the way American based Ukranian amateur star Sillahk showed a beautiful display of boxing against a teak tough roughouse from Armenia.
    It was an excellent test for Sillhahk who nailed his true colours to the mast in that fight.Very convincing performance.Very versatile fighter! A pity that he fights out of the USA! Wont be able to watch him very often live in an arena!

    I told you that Long is a bum he is only very large.


    I think Solis could beat someone like Bidenko, D.Williams, Barret, Maskaev or Peter right now.
    He should fight bigger names he is already 28
    And Solis should lose some weight 115Kg is too heavy for him.

    Ustinov turn's 32 in 2 month he should better fight some good opponents next.
    I think Ustinov can't win a worldtitle but he could already beat someone like
    Vidoz or Platov someone with a name.
