How in the hell did Bradley get up after the Holt KD in the 1st...

CUFreeze · 07-09-2010, 09:35 AM

Seeing all the Bradley headlines right now made me think back to this fight. That was a vicious KD in the 1st round. When it hit I jumped out of my seat and knew the fight was over. Somehow Bradley managed to get up almost fully recovered and go on to win.

Amazing.

i agree, him winning that fight was amazing. i thought he clearly lost. he looked like garbage in that fight and was knocked down twice. holt was robbed, plain and simple. but this is boxing after all, so its nothing new.

It's what happens when you let yourself get out-worked. If Holt had kept it up, he probably would have won.

Holt never had the work rate to keep up with TB.
The shot that put him down sounded like a gun shot and it should have been over there and then but holt didnt really put much pressure on after that and Bradley recoverd well.
The 2nd KD near the end which was a bit harsh from memory made things a little tighter on the cards but it was a clear win for Bradley in the end. Im still not sold on him tho - good pressure fighter with little pop - he reminds me of Juan Diaz sooner or later hes gunna meet someone who can handle the pressure and thats when we will see how good Bradley is - at the mo hes good but not great

It was a vicious bomb from Holt and Bradley's whole body went limp; I was shocked that he was able to continue let alone win.

As the commentator said, going down to a knee for the 8 count looks terrible but may have given him that little extra recovery to get him through the round.

Bradley is more than a pressure fighter, the guys ring iq is up there with the p4p elite.

Are u serious?
I had holt losing every round besides when he scored the two kds.
I had money on holt and knew he would lose once bradley got up.

Probably helped that he was on a shitload of steroids.

i like the juan diaz comparison and your right somebody handled the volume countered and hit hard back

I feel Khan's height reach and good jab straight right provide the same difficulties that Holt provided only better a higher work rate and better defense

i was never too fond of holt especially when torres had him then he butted torres and never rematched him

realdeal561 · 07-09-2010, 12:50 PM

im gonna put money on abregu.

GTFO...Beside of the two KD(2nd being more of a slip)Holt did nothing the rest of the fight while Bradley was active and consistant all night long...But i agree that Bradley looked like shit in this fight...
