Alexander Soldatkin

Nobody hands you anything at heavyweight. Alexander Soldatkin has built a 14-4 record the hard way, one fight at a time since leaving Germany's regional scene.

On the feet he's a problem: 1.16 significant strikes a minute at 61% accuracy, and 71% of his wins end in a knockout. The math is bad for anyone standing across from him.

He's coming off a loss to Mario Piazzon. Careers aren't defined by the fall, though; they're defined by the rebound.
