Javier Solís (September 1, 1931, Mexico City, Mexico[1] April 19, 1966, Mexico City, Mexico) was a popular Mexican singer of boleros and rancheras, and film actor of the middle 20th century. Born Gabriel Siria Levario, Javier Solis became known as one of the most recognized Mariachi solo artists in Mexico. Coming from humble beginnings, at a young age Solis had to drop out of school to help support his family. He trained as an amateur boxer for six years with aspirations of turning professional, but quit after his father urged him to choose a more "decent" career. The young man used to sing in local competitions for small prizes (such as a pair of new shoes), but was eventually banned from participating because he so dominated the competition. At age 16, Solis went to Puebla, Mexico to sing with Mariachi Metepec, but it wasn't until years later when Julito Rodriguez and Alfredo Gil of the trio Los Panchos heard him singing at a local bar that he got his first break as a recording artist. They took him to audition with CBS records where he signed a recording contract and cut his first album in 1950. His first hit, "Lloraras," came two years later and prompted his producer Felipe Valdes Leal to give him the name Javier Solis. The vocalist came to international acclaim in 1957, making appearances in the United States, Central, and South America. Solis was the first to sing songs in a style now known as "Boleros-Rancheras."

Javier Solís (September 1, 1931, Mexico City, Mexico[1] April 19, 1966, Mexico City, Mexico) was a popular Mexican singer of boleros and rancheras, and film actor of the middle 20th century. Born Gabriel Siria Levario, Javier Solis became known as one of the most recognized Mariachi solo artists in Mexico. Coming from humble beginnings, at a young age Solis had to drop out of school to help support his family. He trained as an amateur boxer for six years with aspirations of turning professional, but quit after his father urged him to choose a more "decent" career. The young man used to sing in local competitions for small prizes (such as a pair of new shoes), but was eventually banned from participating because he so dominated the competition. At age 16, Solis went to Puebla, Mexico to sing with Mariachi Metepec, but it wasn't until years later when Julito Rodriguez and Alfredo Gil of the trio Los Panchos heard him singing at a local bar that he got his first break as a recording artist. They took him to audition with CBS records where he signed a recording contract and cut his first album in 1950. His first hit, "Lloraras," came two years later and prompted his producer Felipe Valdes Leal to give him the name Javier Solis. The vocalist came to international acclaim in 1957, making appearances in the United States, Central, and South America. Solis was the first to sing songs in a style now known as "Boleros-Rancheras."

Amateur career
His first international success was in 1998, winning the title at the Pan American Juniors championship in Toluca and the Juniors World championship in Buenos Aires.In 1999 he won the Cuban championship beating Félix Savón. Until 2004 he defended his title five times consecutively.
In 2005 he switched from heavyweight to super heavyweight and lost in the finale to Michel López Núñez. In 2006 he won the title again for a seventh time.
He was part of the Cuban team that won the 2006 Boxing World Cup.
His record was 227 victories, 14 losses. He never lost at a major event (world championships, Olympics) and beat fellow Cuban Félix Savón in two of their three fights.
Solis should have been the Cuban representative to the 2000 Sydney Olympics, because he beat Felix Savon at the Olympic Trials. However, Savon was sent to the Olympics instead, and went on to win heavyweight gold. Because of this, many believe Solis should have won the 2000 Sydney Olympics gold medal.
World Championships
Solís became world champion in 2001 in Belfast and in 2003 in Bangkok at heavyweight (201 lbs/91 kg limit), in 2005 in Mianyang at super heavyweight.In 2001 he beat Russian Olympic silver medalist of 2000 Sultan Ibragimov in the semifinals on points and in the final British David Haye by TKO. Haye gave Solis a standing eight count in the first round and was up by 7 points, but Solis came back strong and won the fight by stoppage in the third round.
In 2003 he won on points in the final against Russian archrival Alexander Alekseev who would win the next world championship. Also, Solis defeated Sultan Ibragimov once more (13-7) in four rounds in the XXXIII Chemistry Cup in Halle, Germany on March 10, 2002.
Olympic Games
He did not participate in the Olympic Games in Sydney; it is thought that Cuba wanted to allow hero Félix Savón to win his third consecutive Olympic gold, thereby equalizing the record of László Papp and Teófilo Stevenson. In the Olympic Games 2004 in Athens Solís won the heavyweight gold medal at 201 lbs.

Notable defeated fighters
Defection
He defected from the national Cuban boxing team in December 2006, during training in Venezuela for the Pan-American Games in Rio de Janeiro. With him, came two fellow amateurs and reigning Olympic champions, Yan Barthelemí Varela and Yuriorkis Gamboa Toledano. After escaping to Colombia, they arrived in Miami. Solís, who plans to reside in Germany, signed a professional promotional contract with German-based First Artist.
Professional career
Heavyweight
Solís made his professional debut on April 27, 2007, weighing in at a much higher weight at 250+ lbs than as an amateur (where he weighed at around 230 lbs) but knocked out 32-7 veteran Andreas Sidon 47 seconds into the first round. In the next 18 months he racked up a 11-0 record against creditable opposition at this stage of a professional career, and in October 2008 he defeated Chauncy Welliver for the WBC international heavyweight title.In his most recent fight, he weighed 260 pounds.
Monte Barrett
Solis fighting out of Miami, Florida, made his third successful defense of the WBC International Heavyweight title with a second round stoppage of Monte Barrett of Queens, New York. Solis, now 15-0 with 11 KOs, a Cuban defector with an extensive amateur career, fought a very cautious first as a careful counterpuncher, preferring to feel out the experienced Barrett, age 38, 34-8, 20 KOs, to see if he had anything left. In the second, Solis opened up with a long left to Barrett's chin that decked him. Barrett just beat the count. In the barrage from Solis that followed, Barrett went down from a slip under pressure, got up, then got knocked out.
Carl Drumond
On March 20, 2010, Solis fought and defeated Carl Davis Drumond by fourth round TKO to retain his WBC International Heavyweight title and to win the WBA Fedelatin Heavyweight title. After toying with Drumond for the first three rounds Solis unleashed a barrage of punches during the last 20 second of round three and would have knocked Drumond down had he not been saved by the ropes, making Drumond not want to come out for the fourth round.
Vitali Klitschko
Solis defeated Ray Austin in a WBC title eliminator when Austin was disqualified in the 10th round. Solis connected with combinations to the head in the 10th, with Austin seemingly out on his feet and repeatedly holding Solis to avoid additional shots. The win set up Solis to fight Vitali Klitschko, becoming the mandatory challenger. On 11 January, it was official confirmed that the fight between Vitali Klitschko and Solís was going to take place in Cologne, Germany on 19 March 2011. Both fighters promised a victory by knockout.On 19 March 2011, the two boxers took to the ring in front of a sell out crowd of over 19,000. In the first round of the fight, after the ten second warning bell rang, Solis connected a left hook to Klitschko's chin. Vitali Klitschko returned the favor by firing a short right to Solis's left temple. What followed has been heavily debated by fans and pundits. Some claim, as he was already falling to the ground, Solis injured his right knee while making an effort to prevent himself from hitting the ground. While others maintain that he simply injured his knee, while backpedalling, and was unable to continue.

Javier Solís () (September 1, 1931, Tacubaya, Federal District, Mexico – April 19, 1966, Mexico City, Mexico) was a popular Mexican singer of boleros and rancheras, and a film actor.
Early history
Javier Solís was born Gabriel Siria Levario, the first of three children of Francisco Siria Mora, a baker, and Juana Levario Plata, a trader. She had a stall at a public market and as her spouse had allegedly abandoned her, and she had little time save for work, she decided to leave her son at the household of his uncle Valentín Levario Plata and his wife, Ángela López Martínez, whom he considered his real parents. Siria had to drop out of school before his teens to support his family. He only passed the first five years at a school in Tacubaya in Mexico City, where he used to participate in singing contests. After dropping out of school he worked collecting bones and glass. Later he worked in a supermarket transporting merchandise. He worked as a baker, a butcher, a carpenters helper and a car washer. In his spare time, he trained as an amateur boxer, with aspirations of going professional, but after suffering a few defeats, he was urged to work at something 'more decent'.Siria began singing in competitions under the pseudonym of ''Javier Luquín'', in which the winner would be awarded a new pair of shoes; he was eventually banned from participating because he so dominated the competition. At that time he was working as a butcher, and sang while he worked. His boss, David Lara Ríos, heard him and was so impressed with his talent that he urged Siria to dedicate himself to his music and recommended him to a voice coach, even paying for singing lessons with Noé Quintero. To his family's relief, he hung up his boxing gloves and began a singing career.
Singing break
At age 16, Siria went to Puebla to sing with the Mariachi Metepec, but he didn't get his first professional break until two years later, when Julito Rodriguez and Alfredo Gil of the famous singing trio, 'Los Panchos', discovered him, and took him to audition at CBS Records. There, in 1950, he signed a contract and recorded his first album. He was singing at the same time at the Teatro Lirico(Lyric Theatre) in Mexico City when he met dancer Blanca Estela Saenz, who would later become his wife. His first hit, ''Lloraras'', came two years later, and it was his then-producer Felipe Valdes Leal that gave Siria his stage name, ''Javier Solís''.Solís began to receive international acclaim in 1957, when he began appearing in the U.S. and Central and South America. He was among the first artists to sing in the new style now known as Bolero-Ranchera. He sang boleros typically associated with trio music, but which now were accompanied by mariachis. Solís was a versatile interpreter; he sang not only boleros, but rancheras, danzónes, waltzes and also tangos. His hit recordings included ''Sombras'', ''Payaso'', ''Vereda Tropical'', ''En Mi Viejo San Juan'', composed by the Puerto Rican Noel Estrada, and ''Amanecí En Tus Brazos'', the latter a re-recording of the hit written and recorded by José Alfredo Jiménez.
Acting career
Solís began his acting career in 1959, and appeared in more than 20 films, working with such artists as Pedro Armendáriz, María Victoria, Antonio Aguilar and Lola Beltrán. His last picture, Juan Pistolas, was finished in 1965, the same year that his film ''Sinful'' was released. During his lifetime, he was considered a better singer than actor by his public, who rated him alongside such accomplished artists as Jorge Negrete and Pedro Infante.
Final years
Following the death of Infante in 1957 due to an air crash in Mérida, Yucatán, Solís experienced a surge of popularity, not least because he was considered the last of The Three Mexican Roosters, or ''Los Trés Gallos Mexicanos'' who along with Infante and Negrete, had been the idols of Mexican music and cinema. All of them died young; Solís was the last, passing at age 34 from complications due to gall bladder surgery. At that time, his doctors had refused him water, and his last words concerned his family and his thirst: "They will have to shower my grave with lots of water. I know that I'm going to die; there is no cure".
Legacy
Javier Solís was a prolific artist, leaving an extensive discography, and like Infante, most of his albums are still in print. This gives an indication of his continuing popularity, so many years after his death.

Amateur highlights
Gamboa's 2004 Olympic Boxing results were:
Defection
While training in Venezuela, Gamboa, along with Cuban teammates Odlanier Solis and Yan Barthelemy snuck out of camp and found their way to Colombia and eventually to Germany, where they applied for visas to enter the United States. Before defecting, he had sold his Olympic gold medal to support his family.
Professional career
Gamboa made his professional boxing debut on April 27, 2007, in Hamburg, Germany against Alexan Manvelyan. Gamboa put Manvelyan on the canvas in the third round and beat up his foe throughout the fight for the unanimous decision victory. Two months later, he defeated Araik Sachbazjan by fourth round technical knockout. After winning his next four fights, Gamboa made his United States debut on October 30, 2007, at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida against Adailton De Jesus. De Jesus was dropped to the canvas halfway through the first round. A Gamboa slip in the fourth round was ruled a knockdown by the referee. Gamboa's relentless pressure eventually forced a stoppage in the sixth and final round.Gamboa fought Gilberto Luque on January 5, 2008, at Bally's Hotel & Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Gamboa sent his opponent to the canvas less than 30 seconds into first round with a left hand. After two more knockdowns the referee stopped the fight. On February 22, 2008 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, he made his American television debut against Johnnie Edwards. Gamboa knocked Edwards down in the first 30 seconds of the fight after connecting with a left hand to the head. Edwards got up, but was met with left-hand punches from Gamboa ending with two consecutive right hands that knocked Edwards down for the second and final time as the referee moved in and halted the fight in round one and won the vacant NABF Super Featherweight title.
On May 17, 2008, at Buffalo Bill's Star Arena in Primm, Nevada, Gamboa fought Darling Jimenez. Gamboa started off well in the first three rounds of the fight, swarming Jimenez and hitting him with punches over and over. Gamboa looked flustered in the fourth round and began showing signs of fatigue. He got careless and was knocked down by a right hand behind the ear from Jimenez. Gamboa got up and finished the fight strong, winning by unanimous decision and claiming the vacant WBC International Super Featherweight title. After the fight, Gamboa’s promoter Ahmet Öner fired his trainer Osmiri Fernandez, replacing him with Ismeal Salas. On July 18, 2008, stepping down to Featherweight, Gamboa scored a first-round technical knockout victory over Al Seeger to win the vacant WBO NABO Featherweight title in a fight that took place at Buffalo Bill's Star Arena in Primm, Nevada. A left hook to the body set up a right hand that landed across Seeger's face, causing him to collapse backwards flat onto the canvas. The referee stepped over Seeger without bothering to count, officially stopping the bout.
On October 5, 2008, Gamboa stepped up in class, yet again, and fought Marcos Ramirez, a Kansas City Featherweight boasting an undefeated 25-0 record in Temecula, California. Gamboa exhibited amazing hand speed and quick combination punching in the first round before he was dropped by Ramirez. Gamboa quickly came to his feet and resumed fighting until the bell rang to signify the end of the round. In the second round, Gamboa picked up where he left off and knocked Ramirez down with a fast right uppercut, followed by another combination. Ramirez let the referee administer the eight count before rising to his feet. Gamboa then finished the fight by pressuring Ramirez into the ropes and landing a left hook to the body, followed by a right uppercut to the jaw. The referee stopped the fight, although it seemed like his count seemed too quick and Ramirez was back on his feet by the count of ten. With the win Gamboa's record improved to 12–0 (10 KOs). Gamboa's next fight took place at Buffalo Bill's Star Arena in Primm, Nevada on January 9, 2009 against Roger Gonzalez. Gamboa used quick combinations from the beginning of the third round to relentlessly attack Gonzalez. Gamboa began his assault after going down during the second round, after absorbing a sneaky right hand by Gonzalez. The referee halted the one-sided bout with 48 seconds remaining after Gonzalez sustained a barrage of punches to the head. Gamboa led 89–82 on one judge's scorecard and 89–83 on the other two judges' cards through nine rounds.
Fast KO Against Walter Estrada
On February 20, 2009, Gamboa fought Walter Estrada at The University Center at Nova Southeastern University. Gamboa knocked out Estrada with a left hook to the body followed by a right hand to the face 25 seconds into the fight.
Fight Against Jose Rojas
On April 17, 2009 Gamboa stoped Jose Rojas via 10th-round TKO to win the Interim WBA Featherweight title.
Fight Against Whyber Garcia
On October 10, 2009 Gamboa stopped Whyber Garcia in the fourth round to win the WBA Featherweight title.
Fight Against Rogers Mtagwa
On January 23, 2010, at the WaMu Theater in Madison Square Garden in New York City, WBA "regular" featherweight champion Yuriorkis Gamboa (17–0, 15 KOs) destroyed Rogers Mtagwa (26-14-2, 18KOs) in two rounds.Gamboa had a very dominating first round. He buzzed Mtagwa several times from several angles and scored a knockdown in the final ten seconds with a counter hook. He continued the damage in the second round, battering Mtagwa and sending him down two more times before the fight was stopped.
Fight Against Jonathan Victor Barros
On March 27, 2010 at Hamburg Germany Gamboa dominated Argentinian boxer Jonathan Victor Barros in twelve rounds to retain the WBA Featherweight title with a unanimous decision.
Fight Against Salido
On September 11, 2010 Gamboa fought Orlando Salido to unify the WBA and IBF Featherweight titles with the result being Gamboa winning by unanimous decision. Salido knocked down Gamboa in the eighth round. Gamboa knocked Salido down in the 12th round, but was docked two points for hitting Salido in the back of his head while Salido was down. With this win Gamboa became the first Cuban boxer to hold the IBF world title since the organization's inception.
Fight Against Solis
On March 26, 2011 Gamboa (19-0-0 prior to the fight) fought Jorge Solis (40-2-2 prior to the fight) to defend his World Boxing Association (WBA) Featherweight Title. Although the Fight was originally pacted to set under dispute both of Gamboa's World Boxing Association (WBA) and International Boxing Federation (IBF) Featherweight tittles at the moment, it was early in the day of the fight after Gamboa had missed a mandatory re-weighing procedure established by the International Boxing Federation (IBF) that his chance to defend it was anulated as welll as Solis's chance to claim it in case he had defeated Gamboa. The Fight only lasted four rounds as Gamboa after having fought a relative conservative first round decided to control the pace of the fight sending Solis to the floor a total of five times and causing referee David Fields to stop the fight giving Gamboa the victory by TKO just after Gamboa had connected several unanswered punches as Solis looked hurt against the ropes. Solis, unable to keep up with Gamboa's speed looked frustrated as well as distant from being the Boxer that at a time was able to keep up with Manny Pacquiao for eight rounds. With the win Gamboa claimed his 20th victory with no defeats continuing to impress in his quest to fight the best boxers in his division. While still on the ring short after the fight Gamboa was interviewed, a moment that Gamboa took advantage of to express his awareness and support towards the victims of Japan's latest earthquake and Tsunami. Gamboa also took the opportunity to proclaim his desire to fight higher caliber featherweight boxers such as Indonesian Chris John and puertorican Juan Manuel Lopez who was attending the fight as a spectator and decided to come up to the ring and proclaim his desire for a possible fight with Gamboa as he also made the observation that it was a business decision to be taken by their shared promoter Bob Arum. Both Juan Manuel Lopez and Gamboa displayed a true sportsmanship conduct as they forecasted a possible fight between them in the future. On the other hand solis had mostly complements in regard of Gamboa's boxing ability and talent claiming that Gamboa's power punches are something he had never seen before in any of his previous fights. Solis also went on to shortly compare Gamboa's punches with Pacquiao's favoring Pacquio in terms of amount of punches but giving the edge to Gamboa in terms of power. Solis also made a short comment claiming that Gamboa's only defect is that he would hit opponents in the back of the neck while in the short distance.
