Despite lowering their weights from previous fights, both Vitali Klitschko and Odlanier Solis displayed softer physiques ahead of tomorrow night’s WBC heavyweight title match.

Champion Vitali Klitschko (41-2, 38 KOs) weighed in at 249.5, roughly two pounds less than when he faced Shannon Briggs in October. Klitschko was less defined than normal but still in very good shape.

Odlanier Solis (17-0, 12 KOs) came in at 247, 13 pounds less than when he defeated Ray Austin in December via disqualification. Despite the significant weight drop, Solis was still very soft in the abdomen area.

Tomorrow night’s matchup will be Vitali Klitschko’s fifth defense of his title.
