Interested in hearing what resident experts have to say about this. Would Solis be able to get at Valuev? Would Valuev be able to keep Solis at bay with his jab? Who is likely to be the aggressor in the fight?
Don't think this would be an easy knockout for Solis (not as easy as recent fights anyway) so his weight/conditioning becomes a bigger factor...
I actually think this is a fight Valuev could win and possibly be out weighed in lol
Solis is one lazy fat b@stard lately
Solis dominates him and wins the most clear victory against Valuev yet.
I doubt he will knock him out but he will win and win comfortably imo.

But then I honestly believe Manny Pacquaio would be able to win a decision against Valuev
Solis absoloutely hammers nikolay valuev all night long and possibly even stops the freak
Ive been saying for so long now that orlandier-ruiz would be a great fight and that the winner should go on to fight the klitschkos while haye ducks them at every turn
Did you guys see Solis last "fight" ?
lol
I think Solis would win a decision in the 116-112 range.
Solis with a loop sided old school spanking, Valuev just doesn't have what it takes against the Chubby Cuban sensation.
The tall guy would beat the fat guy...or something along those lines.
I think Valuev wins it by a close decision. Solis' conditioning is horrible & would lead to him fading badly over the second half of the fight, plus he's just 6'1, in fact Valuev might even stop him late because unlike Solis he at least keeps himself in shape or as much he can be given his dimensions.
Thanks for the insights guys. Divided opinions as to be expected :D
My superficial noob opinion on this is while every other fighter avoids Solis, Valuev might think he'll stand a chance. He can dominate the points due to his reach. And his hard-core chin will force Solis into the late rounds where Solis will likely tire.
The rub is that Solis may be overweight but he's still fast; way faster than Valuev. Even if he's more than a foot and a half shorter, he may be able to land some decent body shots. Valuev doesn't seem like he has the skillz to back off, so he'll have to keep Solis at bay with his fists.
Looks like this fight is likely to happen and it should be interesting, and probably kinda funny to watch.
