It now appears likely that Cuban heavyweight Odlanier Solis will take on Norwegian Leif Dolonen Larsen on October 12 in Madrid - with Arnold Schwarzenegger acting as MC. The promoter behind the event has stated that he has a signed contract from Solis.

 

Larsen is a former NFL pro who late in his career turned to boxing in an on and off career that has seen him build a record of 16-0 and he stopped Danny Williams in two last year for his biggest win yet.

 

Solis, 18-1, appears to be in a different league though but it also must be said that Odlanier´s physical shape always remains a questionmark.

 

On the undercard, Spanish lightweight champ Emiliano Casal take on tough Portugese veteran Joao Bento with the vacant WBO European title at stake.
