Interesting fight possibility on the horizon...Soliman vs Mundine.
World ranked middleweight Sam Soliman has offered himself as a warm up opponent to Mundine, prior to the Sydney fighter's bout with Denmark's World Boxing Association champion Mikkel Kessler.
An elbow surgery has forced a postponement of Kessler's June 9 title defence against Vitali Tsypko and could also delay his mandatory defence against Mundine.
Soliman, who is waiting to challenge the winner of the upcoming middleweight world title bout between Jermain Taylor and 'Winky' Wright, lost a disputed split points decision to Mundine in their 2001 clash in Wollongong.

This would make for a good rematch...I think Soliman might just pull this one off....
