Uuuuummm!! It's a fucken boxing event in Colombia, what did he expect a church choir and formal dinner?

I did NOT see anything there that I haven't seen before. Holt was just looking for an excuse IMO.
I disagree i have only seen the fight once, but the crowd were disgraceful throwing beer cans at Holt and one even hit him didn't it ? and this was just after he floored Torres. It would of had a serious impact on his confidence.
As I said I did not see anything there that I haven't seen in other fights.

Have you seen Valero-Mosquera?
Do you remember what the crowd was like for that?
On par with Holt-Torres there were even people who got past security and were yelling at Valero from the ringside.
Valero still went on to win.

How about Eubanks-Rocchigiani do you remember the crowd for that?
And that was just for the walk ins...
I think i've seen Valero vs Mosquera was that the fight where Valero got knocked down ? can't remember Eubank vs Rocchigiana, but as i said Mick i believe the crowd did effect the concentration of Holt. Imagine your boxer and you got the crowd throwing beer cans at you ? thats got to have a serious effect mentality wise. Maybe it wouldn't have made of difference i don't know all i do know is that both fights were controversial, and whoever wins the 3rd meeting should settle the score.
