Fres Oquendo out vs. Odlanier Solis
Fres Oquendo was forced to pull out due to "legal issues that prevent him from leaving Illinois." This is about par for course with the Latin Fury PPVs, where it seems like the lineups change more than they stay the same from first announcement. Solis seems to have particularly bad luck - in the past year, he's had Oquendo (twice), Kevin Johnson and Franz Botha all pull out of fights with him. Rather than add the John Duddy fight (or is it Pawel Wolak now left off TV?), Top Rank is still looking to find a short-notice replacement for Solis.

Great more time for Solis to get into the best shape of his life…lol

He won a gold medal at 201
If you can imagine that. He’s been consistently 250 since going pro.

Wolak-Nascimento is on TV. They should just put the Duddy fight on and chalk up Solis as “not this time, I guess.”
