He's got very good skills, he's a dangerous puncher, but yes his tendency to be overweight is worrying to me.

At this point I DO NOT think signing with Don King is a bad deal for because Don King has very few viable options at heavyweight, outside of Solis he has: Valuev, Austin, Meehan, and I think he still has Shannon Briggs though I'm not sure. For that reason I think Don King will protect him and build him up a bit....although with Solis already being overweight signing with DKP could just allow Solis to become lazier and fatter.
