During The Ultimate Fighter 3 Hutcherson trained under Ken Shamrock's team. He kicked off a good relationship with Kendall Grove, forming "Team Dagger", although they were in different teams.
After losing the fight with Rory Singer he stated
“You always end up learning from a loss. I had never gone into any of my prior fights taking things so personally. I was in the position of living out a dream. I have been watching the UFC ever since I was a kid. I finally had the chance to get inside the Octagon. That really got to me on an emotional level.”[1]
After the TUF show, he trained with Kendall Grove in the Xtreme Couture Camp for two years.[2]
In the Xtreme MMA 5, for the main event Hutcherson met David Loiseau. During the final round, Solomon is KO-ed by repeatedly receiving knee strikes to the head, in a Muay Thai clinch.[3][4]
Hutcherson fought Jason MacDonald in the Maximum Fighting Championship in December 2009, losing by split decision.[5][6]
Solomon talks about his wrestling background
“I’ve wrestled freestyle and folkstyle since 1988. I wrestled for Racine Park High school where I qualified for the state tournament during my sophomore, junior, and senior years. Jason and Matt Case both wrestled for that school. They would later go on to found the Real Pro Wrestling League. I placed 6th in the state (Wisconsin) during my senior year. After high school I wrestled for Triton Junior College in River Grove, Illinois. My daughter was born in 1991 so I ended up leaving school in the middle of the year. That was it for my wrestling career.”[1]

After TUF 3 , he stated in an interview:
“I consider myself a laidback, personable, type of guy. A lot of us out here in the Midwest have that type of personality. The whole experience was totally new to me. I never had to live under the same roof with a group of guys who might end up being my opponent the next day. If I came off as being depicted differently it was just because I was in a different situation and surrounding than what I’m used to.”[1]
