Comments Thread For: Solis' Right Knee Issue Was Pre-Existing To Klitschko Fall

[CubanGuyNYC]

Immediately after the fight, I thought there were only two possibilities. Either Solis had injured his leg during the fight, or he was blatantly throwing the match. (I don't believe for a second that glancing blow to the top of the head would bring him down.) The possibility that Solis might've had a pre-existing knee injury is now gaining steam. (Lennox Lewis mentioned it in the post fight analysis.) It's almost a cross between the two, earlier theories. Disgusting....

I wouldn't doubt that.

The question is: did he really KO "this loser" in this fight?

Technically, yes he did.

But you must know that Solis, who dislikes boxing and likes strippers and eating, was not gonna take a lot of punishment from Vitali when he could pull that act and walk away with $1.8 million.

Technically, yes. It's in the books as such and is there to stay. But, really....

As far as Vitali is concerned, a win is a win, and a KO is a KO.

As far as Solis goes, he's a POS, but I knew that before the fight.

Solis wanted the big paycheque, so they were quiet about the injury.

But did the fans who paid to go to the fight get cheated?

I read somewhere else that Odlanier won't be fighting again for at least a year, as the injury needs time to heal.

That's incredibly messed up towards the fans if Solis knew he was in no shape to fight but went ahead to collect the paycheck. I don't ever want to see this guy again.

This is nothing new... at least for Cubans, we all knew Solis had problems with that knee. It has been discussed in hispanic forums before. It's not new from before this fight, he's had it for some time, it was just a matter of time before his knee popped again, and unfortunately it happened during his most expected fight.

That will teach him a lesson, being an obese and being a pro athlete doesn't fit well together.

Its so full of shit I cant believe it.
Watch Solis coming into ring and then jumping when his name is announced by Buffer, would a fighter with possibly knee injury act like that? No.
Watch the way Solis immediately starts the fight with constant side to side movement, would a fighter with an injured knee fight like that? No.
Its Oner's lies, and in either way he is making himself look like a complete cunt if he let his fighter come to fight with a serious injury(which is a lie)

His knee wasn't "injured", he just had problems with it in the past and those kind of injuries never heal 100%, the knee stays fragile your entire life. I know from experience, I've had a "small" knee injury that took like 2 years to recover, and now I can jump as much as I want and everything but I can't run for a long time on a hard surface or my injury will come back...yup, this also happened to me, and it took me like an additional year to fully recover again.

So, why would a fighter who knows that his knee is his volatile point, jump for no reason but to impress the public with his athletism? I know plenty of athletes, hell I used to box myself and they care very much not to overstress the areas of previous injury without a good reason.

Moreover, as I read about a nature of his injury as reported by his camp, it makes me hair rize from the smell of it.
If Solis indeed suffered from that type of injury, he would've never gotten up, watch any professional sport like football or me loathed soccer, when a soccer player suffers from a torn cruciate ligament, he would not get up, or even put any pressure on it, because the pain is excruciating. Solis on the other hand not just managed to get up, but even walked out of the ring on his own two legs.
