Good to see Eurosport showing some live stuff (wonder if any of the British promoters have tried negotiating with them?), but what a farcical event. Pathetic venue (don't think there could have been more than 200 there), the smallest ring I have ever seen, and misunderstanding of the length of the fight - no surprises there with Ahmet Oner around.

Solis is an extreme disappointment for me, bordering on embarrassing. The guy has/had serious skills. Olympic gold medallist - Savon was mentioned earlier on the thread, well Solis beat him twice as a kid. If this guy really wanted it he could be a real threat, and have at least as much success as Haye has done as a heavyweight. But he's grossly overweight, and until he changes that he goes nowhere. He should be weighing between 205-220. 255+ is just disgraceful.

He's only 32 so it's not too late, but he I don't see him going anywhere unless he gets a new trainer/manager/promoter who reads him the riot act and forces him to changes his lifestyle. What a waste.

Solis is going no where. What a waste of talent.

If he couldn't get himself in shape for Vitali, I doubt he will ever have the drive.

Train like a pro 7 days a week from the age of 9 like these Cuban guys do and see how much desire and fight you have left when you hit 30! :lol:

Now chuck in suddenly leaving this spartan existence and having access to all these luxuries when you defect and I can see why Cuban fighters might take their eye off the ball when they leave Cuba and turn pro.

Sure, it's a waste of talent but I can't get too angry at these chaps.

I suppose he's won Olympic gold for his country so has hit the sporting pinnacle.

Defecting and turning pro was probably always for the money and luxuries rather than the glory.

I just read that 13 is the age of consent in spain. I cant find any legitimate sources saying he is a convinted peadophile. Im not saying he isnt but if he isnt then thats pretty slanderous.

Age of consent in Spain is 13, i am lead to believe that is because of a lot of gyspy marriages, there is a big gyspy population here especially in the south
13 ? That's pretty horrible.
