Brian "The Hawaiian Punch" Viloria captures the IBF Light Flyweight title with huge KO over Solis.
The Hawaiian Punch dominates his adversary with a sensational Knock Out over highly regarded Ulises Solis.
Viloria, a former 2000 US Olympian, came in an underdog against the man dubbed ‘The Filipino Assassin’ for his recent victories over Rodel Mayol and Glenn Donaire.
Viloria’s big right hand and left hook threw Solis off his game and the challenger started breaking down the champion early. Viloria never allowed Solis to establish his rhythm and punished the champion the whole fight. In Round 11, Viloria landed a picture perfect right hand that sent Solis crashing to the canvass. The referee waived the fight off at 2:56 of Round 11, and Solis remained on the deck for several minutes. With the win, Viloria improved to 25-2 (15 KOs) and thrust himself back on to the world title scene.
