| | | The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt +707 I did not post this here yesterday because I can't embed it but I will post the direct link, since it got such a popular response. Viddler.com - Torres/Holt Headbutt - Uploaded by LostTapes
I have no say so about this fight, a rematch would be nice.
A lot of people said that they had not seen the head butt.
A couple of observations, does anyone else think that Jay Nads looks a little like that fuckwit Matt Hughes from the UFC?
Same fucking prick face.
Did you guys see the Ghost of Corrales in the stands? 
As I was making the video, I saw the ghost of Chico
Ok since I was little kid, I would always look at the people in the stands to see if there were any celebs present.  Or look alikes. I know it's a bad habit but it's fun to do this and find people who look like someone in the stands

Punch Power: 2265 | | Re: The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt Hahaha!! Some rep when I can give you more, I havent heard that song since around 1988 I believe.
I was away on a mini vacation and I didnt see the fight but that was visicious as Fuk and as your video showed clearly setup by the butt.. It didnt look like a Hopkins intentional battering ram butt but none the less was the determining factor

Punch Power: 290 | | Re: The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt Bring on the decider. Blatant head butt. He was defo woozy before Holt threw the one two that ended things. Holt should give him the rematch. If not the WBO should make him do it.

Punch Power: 3992 | | Re: The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt Good stuff Danny... Don't worry I too ALWAYS look at the audiance to see whos there. I actually have a list of celebs/people whom I've seen ringside at fights.
Off the top of my head I can tell you Nick Lachey was ringside for Cotto-Torres.

Punch Power: 205 | | Re: The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt I agree there was a head butt, but right after the head butt there was a well placed body shot. So I don't know what exactly caused Torres to back up against the ropes in the manner that he did. But that was the most unbelieveable minute in boxing history in my opinion. Torres was so stupid though. All he had to do was stay agressive as opposed to wildly aggressive. Holt did nothing but capitalize when his opponent was simply defenseless against the ropes. I definitely want to see a third fight. |

Punch Power: 705 | | Re: The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt The head butt didn't look intentional and neither did the late punch from torres while holt was semi-down, so i have no problem with how things went. Torres tried to continue where he left off and jumped out and made it a fight instead of boxing and hell it damn near worked. He forgot it was near the end of the last fight that he was sucessful, not in the first round. That was a 61 second fight, no skill needed, it was possible to see anything happen with guys throwing haymakers for 5-10 seconds straight that close to each other. A third fight would definatly be nice.

Punch Power: 1957 | | Re: The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt A 3rd fight is pretty much a necessity after seeing the fight finally. Holt might not have been on his way out of there to quite yet but it was close and that headbutt hurt Torres more then I've ever seen someone hurt. There was also a cut caused by it on Holt I noticed after.

Punch Power: 88 | | Re: The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt If not for the head butt, the other punches wouldn't have landed, therefore there would have been no ko. The only reason the hard right landed to torres head was because of the head butt. |

the head butt for me, This fight should have been declared a no-contest.

Punch Power: 205 | | Re: The Head Butt Video Torres/Holt I don't remember much of the post fight commentary (I was flabbergasted by the fight), but it didn't seem to me that the announcers even mentioned the headbutt. Showtime is inferior to HBO Boxing, though I believe their announcers are decent. |
