Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2015-06-26, disappointing fight between Sam Soliman and Dominic Wade: it gets two stars.The 41-year-old Sam Soliman (16 years older than Wade) entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 44-12-0 (18 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.7 middleweight in the world (currently the #1 in this division is Gennady Golovkin). He won the IBF Mw title last year, against Felix Sturm (=Sturm vs Soliman 2), but then he lost it at his first defense, against Jermain Taylor (=Soliman vs Taylor).
His opponent, the undefeated Dominic Wade, has a perfect record of 17-0-0 (12 knockouts) and he entered as the No.27 in the same weight class; he fought four times last year beating Eddie Hunter in his last fight. Soliman vs Wade is the main event of the evening. Watch the video and rate this fight!

First up as an Australian I must declare my prejudice. But even being generous to Wade I don’t believe he deserved the decision.
