I give Peterson all the credit, but yeah, Holt didn't have much in return after the 3rd round.Quote:

Good to see Peterson back with a nice performance
Once Holt got dropped off that right is was pretty much over
Just barely hanging on the last few rounds
@Master - Peterson dominated this one from the 4th round on, knocking Holt down, giving him a shellacking, and stopping him in the 8th round. Not a bad fight if you want to check out the replay.
cheers
Totally. Hate to say it but Holt looked like he only packed for 4 rounds or so. Peterson took care of biz, well done. Frank interview from Holt and honest about status, glad to hear that from a solid pro.Quote:

True, Holt wasn't competitive after the 3rd round.Quote:

Only $12,500, that is a joke, he should make way more than that, why the low rate, managers, fees, tax?
ESPN FNF can't afford to pay that much, that's the main reason, but actually Holt was fortunate to get that.Quote:

Too bad Holt couldn't land anything big to get back into the fight. Was rootin for him.
Holt is one of those good fighters who can never take it to the next level. I'd hoped he'd win a 2nd title but it was not to be, best of luck to him in the future.Quote:
