    Peterson won maybe one round. Witter, Holt and even Alexander gave him a tougher fight.... Idiot.

    Bernardo Osuna interviews Peterson.

    Osuna says the jab was established early and asks when Peterson knew he was going to be in control. Peterson says that Holt landed flush on him and he knew he could take Holt's power. He started figuring out the direction of Holt's punches and where to position his guard so it became easier as it went along.

    He felt Holt slowing down toward the end. Peterson had to pace himself and catch a second wind to shore up the energy to finish him off.

    Osuna asks who he would like to call out. Peterson says it doesn't matter, but he's a little bitter about the IBF belt having been taken from him. He says Danny Garcia currently has "his" belt, so that's what he wants the most.

    It got to the point you stopped throwing the right hand....

    I think that had something to do with Peterson taking it away from him. You could probably count on one hand the amount of times he landed the straight right.

    Those were flash KDs, you could arguably say that Tim won the rounds back because he beat Holt's ass worse after every knock down.

    Dude?

    Tim dropped Lamont in the 3rd. It was a game fight, but Lamont wasn't winning that many rounds.

    You think Lamont gave Bradley a tougher fight than Pacquiao or Holt did? Holt scored one of the hardest non-fight-ending KD's I've ever seen against Bradley. ****, Abregu gave Timmy as hard or harder a fight than Lamont did.

    Osuna interviews Holt.

    Kendall says he stayed on his bike too long and might've done better if he mixed it up a bit more.

    Holt says physically he was fine heading in, but he just didn't pull the trigger enough.

    Osuna notes that all of Holt's losses are against top fighters and asks him what the future holds. Holt says he needs to evaluate his career and maybe think about retirement.

    It's not whining when they are FACTS. PEDerson FAILED a drugs test, yet it was still a close fight with that and the points deduction :patsch

    Dang. Disappointed with Holt, don't know why he actin so strange like he did before the fight especially a veteran like him. I take back what I said about Lamont, he ain't no cheat. Great victory by Lamont looks better than ever. I'll jump back on the bandwagon.

    Lets be real though, 2013 Kendall Holt is NOT comparable to 2012 Danny Garcia. I'd still pick Garcia over Peterson, but it's a good competitive fight which any result would not surprise me.
