Bouncy fighter also have zero steam on their punches so a determined guy can eat them up if they are willing to take the pain, if Solomon had real defense or stayed in proper position it would be one thing but he is wide open and it is so bad it probably can't be fixed.

These bouncy fighters are constantly changing angles, and distance, setting up shots when u think there on the run, lunging in as soon as you go defensive or back up. It's like trying to catch a fly. You think your close, but your really not.
And than you get stuck like dhop looking for a few shots, and you become so hesitant your always late. Ive boxed and watched boxing my whole life, soloman type fighters can make really good fighters mentally break down in the ring quickly.
He kid of reminds me of Martinez or calzaghe. Everyone underestimates how good they really are until you see them fight top names.
Soloman is the goods.
I've been there and know exactly what you are talking about. The slick guys are troublesome but like I said, pressure and aim your shots for their chest while feinting abit to draw them out. Been there done that.
Solomon will not progress very much higher.............Rockin'

But I disagree with progressing. I think he cam continue to progress. As far as his understanding of the spot, footspeed, hand speed, and ring generalship, he's got the goods. He could def clean up his game a bit and tighten things up though.
