Winning Against the Odds:
Odlanier Solis, 260, won his heavyweight title eliminator against Ray Austin, 239 3/4 last night by 10th round disqualification last night at American Airlines Arena Miami, Florida. The strange end came with with only 1 second left i the 10th, when both men nearly toppled over the top rope at press row and upon the break Austin clocked Solis with a right hand.
The foul came after Austin was trying to survive for his fistic life as Solis was on verge of a stoppage win. Austin was hurt and down in the round and was looking stay a float in any manner possible. The tackle by Austin that nearly landed both men outside the ring coupled with the egregious late hit was enough for referee Tommy Kimmons to halt the proceedings.
It seems to this writer that a stoppage win was inevitable prior to the disqualification as Austin seemed to have run out of everything at that point in the fight. Strangely, the judges believed Austin was still in the fight after nine round...
