Torres vs. Holt (Spoiler) >>>>
Torres TKOs Holt!
WBO junior welterweight champion Ricardo "Mochuelo" Torres (33-1, 29 KOs) scored a come-from-behind eleventh round TKO over mandatory challenger Kendall Holt (22-2-1, 12 KOs) to retain his world title on Saturday night in Barranquilla, Colombia. Holt appeared headed toward the belt when he dropped Torres in round six and was in command the next few rounds. Torres, however, reached down deep to turn the tide in the tenth and got the stoppage in the eleventh when referee Genaro Rodriguez halted the bout with Holt taking punishment on the ropes.

CC#126 on me CFH.
I hope this fight turns up somewhere it sounds like FOTY candidate with all the knockdowns and the come from behind TKO.
Re: Torres vs. Holt (Spoiler) >>>>
could have been a quick stoppage(I'll have to wait and see) But Holt's chin let him down again. So whenever I watch a Holt fight I'm on edge because his chin isn't the greatest and when its truly tapped he goes with it.
I wish Torres all the credit in the world. But if this is a FOTY candidate I won't mind seeing rematch.
Hey Mick :club:

Hey Mick :club:
What up Starr?
CC#1185, I love seeing your name on here it brings a smile to my face.
I myself can't believe it I thought Holt was slick enough to get past Torres with flying colors but I was wrong.
How about Arnoutis vs. Holt?
Let them fight for contention and see who stays on top of that list.
Re: Torres vs. Holt (Spoiler) >>>>
Sounds like Holt almost got there. Torres deserves credit for the victory! By the sounds of it a rematch may be warranted.

Oh, me too. I remember mocking those who though Torres would win.
Re: Torres vs. Holt (Spoiler) >>>>
Nobody has seen the fight yet, so we don't really know whether it was a legit stoppage or not.
It wouldn't suprise me in the least if Torres got a Colombian hometown bullshit stoppage in his favor. Then again, maybe it was a good stoppage.
Nobody can really say until they've actually seen the fight.
Re: Torres vs. Holt (Spoiler) >>>>
I'm glad Torres won. He's a gutsy champion and is overlooked by the rest of the belt holders. He should try and get unification.

We already had that bro, although to be fair it was such a boring and utterly shit fight that your brain has probably forced the memories of it out of your head......wish mine would do the same for me :D

It's amazing how you can analyse a fight that you haven't even seen, I remember you once offering critique on a RBR!

I figured something like this would happen. Hopefully the WBO over turns the ruling and orders a rematch....................... anywhere but Colombia.
Re: Torres vs. Holt (Spoiler) >>>>
Holt didn't deserve what happened. Call it a no contest. Put it on the undercard of Cotto-Mosley! That would be an exciting night for boxing.

That fight shouldn't be a rematch I think that Holt and Torres should have a rematch over here in the US on a place like HBO or Showtime.
And once Holt wins that a third fight can happen.
But it sounds like Holt was dominating him from the appearance of it and got caught.
But there is a chance the rematch won't happen. Sad but it could happen. If I was Holt I would try to get a rematch as soon as possible but if I'm Torres I duck that fight at all cost.
Next up for Torres I'd like to see Malignaggi fight him and after Paul wins him and Holt can fight if Holt beats someone else like Lovemore Ndou.
