So anyone that get knocked down can claim a knee injury and get a no contest? Come on dude. To the people saying Solis had a chance, not with that punch resistance no he didn't. Imagine once Vitali landed a real clean shot.
I've watched the replay a good 5 times. The punch lands, but it is a glancing blow. WHAT did Lennox Lewis say about it ? He said it was a glancing blow and did not have much of an effect on Solis. Lennox believed that Solis entered the ring with a pre-existing injury, and I have to agree with him there. As far as Vitali landing a great clean KO blow, or even a solid punch that ended the fight, no I don't think so. Either way Solis blew it and will never get a shot like that again, least not against a Klitschko he won't.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
