    While people are complaining that Holt put on a stinker of a performance, he clearly landed the cleaner, harder punches throughout the fight. Bradley did good work to the body at times but most of his punches were ineffective or of the fouling nature. Obviously, the judges preferred activity over clean, power shots and sharp, hard jabbing. It happens. I felt Kendall did enough to win; especially having scored two KD's. Did Bradley really do enough to overcome getting KD'd twice, getting his head snapped back with hard jabs, and getting hit flush with hard head shots by Holt? I just didn't see it. I'm not the type of fan to cry out robbery, and I won't here. It all comes down to what the judges prefer and there's nothing you can do about that. It was a good fight, but there was way too much fouling going on and I didn't think the ref did a good job at putting a stop to it.

    So, hopefully there's a rematch.


    On a sidenote, it was great to see both fighters talking to one another post-fight in the middle of the ring...you can see the mutual respect.

    These Epic Fail type threads are embarrassing. Some of you have no shame.

    Even though I was wrong on this one (had Holt by decision), It's still nice to see some people enjoying humble pie.

    Hahaha. Now, FritoBurrito, 5eyebrows, et al, go eat crow. Empty post-fight rationalizations won't help either.

    Now, cry us a river pls.... ;)

    Julio Diaz-Rolando Reyes I had Julio Diaz winning a decision. That kind of fell apart :lol:

    I nailed Escobedo, Katisidis, Valero and Andrade. I was off on the stoppages though (I had Katsidis stopping Jesus Chavez a round later, I had an early KO for Escobedo and a late TKO for Valero) but who cares

    Holt-Bradley I had Holt winning on points. I came close but Holt just wasn't active enough. Unfortunately Kendall Holt fell in love with his hook and forgot his jab like a ****.
