Ah well forget about Cloud, Solis the beast is up now. I really like this guy, even if he is a fat fuck. He still knocks out David Haye imo.

Solis is actually pretty fast. Too bad he makes Arreola look disciplined.
Solis is sow man :p
Agree. Thinks he's leaps and bounds ahead of LacyQuote:

I've only seen one Cleverly fight, but I saw nothing in him that makes me think he has a chance against Cloud. From what I saw, he lacks power, is reckless offensively, and is fairly easy to hit. I think Cloud stops him, at least at this stage of Cleverly's development.Quote:

Physically Austin actually looks in pretty good shape for a heavyweight.
Solis looks fat but not Arreola fat at least.
LOL, the ref warns Solis about pushing off so he accepts the warning and pushes him off 3 times in the next 10 seconds.
I didn't realize Ray Austin was 40.
Littel suprised. Tubbs is really reaching and working overtime to push Austin off.Quote:

Solis always pushes, its just his style, walk forward, punch, push always with a look of contempt for his opponents power on his face.
I think he would just bully Haye into submission.
Personally. I believe we are looking at the biggest bust on a heavyweight in some time
You actually think this bowling ball of a fighter can beat David Haye?Quote:

Bilbo I'm just not sure what you see here.
I think he would need to step up his training and lay off the taco's.Quote:

He has "please feed me uppercuts thru my extended arms and straight approach" written all over him...or just feed me something...I'm not picky...really
At least that was better, Solis came out of his shell a bit.
His right hand is odd looking at times.
That amateur fight was a long time ago, Haye has grown tremendously as a fighter since then. Solis is short, fat, slow, lazy, and he lacks power. I see absolutely no way he beats David Haye. I'm not sure he'd beat Chris Arreola or Eddie Chambers.Quote:

He throws it like he's swinging a purse.Quote:

Dear Eddie Chambers: I'm sorry
Seriously though, He's horrid. Slow, front heavy and does he know what a combo is? He just looks like he half is counting on Austin to show his age and fall over for him.
Austin just lays that left hand out on top of Solis' head. Surprised the ref hasn't said anything.
Did some decent body work there though.
I don't think he needs concussive power though. He's winning every round for me (well actually he slacked off a little in the fourth).
It's not as if Austin is extending him at all. He is frustratingly lazy, but as long as he's winning I guess he doens't care.
Solis lulled him to sleep and then exploded. Did he drop Austin with a jab?
Not against Grampa Austin, but if/when he steps up he's going to wish he could punch. He's not going to outbox or outwork guys like David Haye and the Klitschko's.Quote:

Skill,shot wise he competes with Adamek. Mentally & overall though I think Adamek beats the crap outta him down the stretch.
I think he beats Adamek. Adamek was rocked by Michael Grant. Haye was dropped by Monte Barret. Solis can get to these guys and wear them down imo. His workrate is a problem but I have a feeling he will be like Chris Eubank and rise to the challenge in front of him.Quote:

He has pretty good hand speed for a bowling ball. If Haye can't hurt him than Solis walks through himQuote:

I'll hate Solis forever if he doesn't get a stoppage here. I need the points.
I just don't see anything here to make me think he could beat a Haye or an Adamek. This is pretty dreadful stuff.
Concussive power ain't needed to beat Haye. Speed is the key. I think Solis has enoughQuote:
