    March 19th, 2010
    Lanxess-Arena, Cologne, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

    Vitali Klitschko
    Height: 6′ 7½″
    Weight (lbs): 251
    Reach 80″
    Record: 41-2
    KO Percentage: 88%


    Odlanier Solis
    Height: 6′ 1½″
    Weight (lbs): 260
    Reach: 79"
    Record: 17-0
    KO Percentage: 70%


    It should be interesting to see Vitali and Solis side by side at the press conference. I don't think Solis is the listed 6′ 1½″, I think he's a little shorter, judging by the pics below.

    There is a large height difference in this fight. Of course height alone means nothing, many fighters have proven that. However, Vitali is excellent at using his height to his advantage. I see Vitali pounding away on Solis from the outside, and winning via KO, or TKO in 7-9 rounds. Or, it could go something like this:

    Not a bad heavyweight era.
    Yet he's fighting someone smaller but heavier than him.
    Vitali will win this on height alone.
    Thats how the Klitschkos always win.

    It means circumference, not height.

    I don't like this Solis guy. He will be a decent win on Vitali's record

    This will likely be the best heavyweight fight of the year. I dont think there will be two more skilled guys in the ring this year. Vitali throws a lot of punches for such a huge man, I dont know how he does it. He has solid defense, a good chin, awkward style and doesnt drop rds.

    Solis is a good technical boxer, is up for his biggest payday ever (motivation?), carries good punching power and has an excellent chin.

    Theoretically, the fight should be a very good one. Accompany this fight with the Wlad/Adamek fight and it is going to be a pretty entertaining year for K2 and the HW division.

    No doubt.

    Vitali if he was a real man would would have 2'' of bone length removed from each of his femurs and make Solis go on a diet

    Don't get butthurt.
    It's just true, he's winning on pure height.
    It's time for a super heavyweight devision.
