Vitali Klitschko 249.5 - Odlanier Solis 246.9

[GAME]

Solis can blame his knee but he knows that its his own fault for not getting in shape. Those feaks accidents dont happen very often to conditoned fighters. He was just too fat and his knee couldnt support him.

Even had he come in weighing 220 he still wouldnt have been good enough anyeway.The first semi decent punch he had to absorb hurt him and scrambled his senses. No way could he have absorvbed another even if he did beat the count. He just wasnt good enough to survive a round with a 40 year old. Vitali goes on still chasing a defining fight as nobody so far has been able to provide a challenge. What I will say about Vitali though is this is another time where he has reacted poorly after the final bell. Remember after Lewis and his unprofessional conduct. Remember when his bro got sparked by Sanders and then yesterday he was shouting at a fallen opponent. Not classy. The only time Ive seen him behave was when Byrd made him quit on his stool which humbled him abit.

Yeah... He was taking a helaish beating and threw the fight...

In all honesty it was farcicle, but looked legit.

Probably wouldn't of happened if he was in shape, the guy needs to do mote swimming!













Sorry ICB

i didnt say he was taking a beating adam , i just didnt like the way he looked , stage fright , if he is badly hurt his leg then i am happy he couldnt continue.
If he hasnt then it shows he was looking for a way out.
Just feels a bit strange.

And yes he needs to do much more swimming.

Maybe Aqua Aerobics would suffice

Knee injuries, weight catches up to people eventually, it's clearly a sign that he SHOULD be weighing less if he's gonna do this for a living. His knee wouldn't give out so easily if all that extra weight wasn't on it. Solis had the right game plan, had the speed, and was doing well but that weight came back to bite him. He's too top heavy. He's like I am when I'm out of shape, I'm top heavy as well, whenever I was overweight and I tried to play basketball I always came home and my knees are in a lot of pain or I always seemed to tweak them when I'm out there and at 23 years old the LAST thing my knees should be is in pain after a game of basketball. When I lost weight(thanks to p90x shameless plug) when I go out there it doesn't seem so bad. Because my weight is pretty much at where it should be and it isn't putting extra pressure on my knees. If you don't treat your body right, it will hurt you. Solis is too top heavy with that kind of pressure on his knees, he is about 20 pounds away from where he needs to be, maybe more even. But in this time off and rehabbing he should use it as an opportunity to get in much better shape before he shoots his knees to crap over his negligence and lack of physical discipline.

[AdamGB]

How much do you wanna bet that he just sits around getting fat?

[AdamGB]

That fight did no favours for heavyweight boxing at all.

Solis big night and had a chance to win and he didnt bother to get in peak condition deserves everything he gets imo.

The only way it would have been any more embarassing for the sport is if Solis had came in as he did and won.

The fact that he came in looking so unconditioned and suffered an injury that a 25 year old should not suffer is a joke in itself... But at least it shows that you can't show up looking like that in this sport and be serious

[Rantcatrat]

Funny thing is that he weighed less for this fight than he has for his last 8 fights!

[Rantcatrat]

has anyone seen the medical report ?

looked to me as if solis wanted a way out.

I agree, Al. In a way, it looked like a dive. Solis wasn't in a ton of pain after the fight and he wasn't seeking medical attention. Maybe it was an injury he got in training and he went through with the fight anyway to secure the pay check.

[Mctaggert]

I think that is quite possible, I was thinking myself that he might already be injured. If he knows he'll get a rematch maybe he landed a few punches. Found what he needed to know, and decided to take a dive, and come back thinner and stronger another day.

Oh fuck off, Vitali acted like anyone else would have. Boxing is an emotional sport and people (fighters included) were hyped up for a big fight. The punch that landed wasn't all that hard or flush and so of course Vitali sees Solis go down like he's been shot and Vitali thinks "This is bullshit, I want to fight, the fans didn't pay to see that"....who wouldn't think that, I mean Solis was supposed to be a tough contender not some pushover.

Early reports are torn meniscus and maybe ruptured cruciate ligaments...not very promising for Solis' future IMO.

[Hornfinger]

The klit won!?

His opponant was a big fat out of shape cunt who just turned up for a payday!?

the fans felt ripped off!?

Wow who woulda ever thought that a fight involving one of the klits would turn out that way?

haha I just love that you would defend someone's professionalism with the opening stanza 'Oh fuck off..'. that made me lol

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Lyle, your such an a tart

Rant, yeah Solis was light but it seems that he only lost weight on his legs!

Maybe his promoter was right? Maybe his massively broad chest makes his weight somewhat deceptive :-)

[CutMeMick]

I had the round 10-9 in favor of Solis...
I think he was clearly winning.

Hey I'm sorry but to call the Klitschko's "unprofessional" out of ALL the heavyweights out there is fucking ridiculous. It seems to me that Vitali and Wlad are the only ones that seem to take the sport seriously in that division. So what Vitali got upset when the doctors stopped his fight vs Lewis, Vitali figured (correctly by the way) that this was his 1 and only shot at Lennox and Vitali wanted to continue. Vitali got pissed at Solis because they are both paid to fight and at first Vitali didn't think Solis had hurt himself and so he was upset that Solis couldn't continue, how the hell is Vitali supposed to know what happened to Solis' knee?

When did I say Wvlad was unprofessional? You need to get their balls out your mouth for once. Vitali is a hot head and the only time he showed decorum was when Byrd stopped him. That would humble anyone
