I Knew It...shaky Business In Columbia In The Holt Fight...!!!! Read This....

so we're in agreement, the stoppage was correct:good :rofl

 

First hand account from a poster on Maxboxing...

-----------------------------------

I saw the fight live in Barranquilla and the card was pretty good there were about 2,000 people but it felt like 10,000. First off I would like to give props to Kendall Holt he fought a near perfect fight a complete shut-out,everybody in the crowd was saying that Holt was 10X better shape and technique over Torres. Torres was getting tagged and he was scared to throw because Holt made him think twice after dropping him in the 6th. Now.... it was the 11th round and the colombians fans started cheering Torres and Torres started to connect and trade with Holt. Holt was running for his life doing circles in the ring then finally Torres connected with a left hook and dropped Holt nasty. Holt was on wobbly legs but bad he was ****ed up big time and he was falling and holding Torres legs. There was a point that Holt did the zab judah and thats when Torres cornered him and connected about 5 shots the ref came in and stopped it.

IT WAS A GOOD STOPPAGE HOLT WAS OUT OF IT, IF TORRES DIDNT FINISH IN THE 11TH HE WOULD OF DONE IT IN THE 12TH. Holt cant make no excuses he had Torres out on his feet and he couldnt finish him, he blaming the fans and ref but the truth is he was out cold. Hopefully there will be a rematch but I doubt Torres people want another piece of Holt. Maybe one of the best fights I been to in my life. Well guys I will be going back to drinking my ass off and ****ing beautiful colombian women.

 

Kendell Holt got robbed plain and simple. It is not just the premature stoppage. It is mainly the fact that beer and soda cans and water bottles were gettting thrown in the ****ing ring! You can EVEN SEE ONE HIT KENDELL HOLT IN THE HEAD IN THE ****ING CLIPS! Who can honestly say that **** would have went down here in the united states and the fight allowed to continue. Or at least have dried the ring mat. But I mean c'mon, it hit him in the ****ing head. i mean what other evidence do u really need besides that?

 

I have SEEN ACTUAL video and the 11th was a circus. Water, ice, beer all over and the fighters slipping constantly, people reaching in to wipe while the fighters were exchanging, and Holt was defending himself and moving when the fight was stopped. My download isn't complete but from what I saw it was a total joke.

No, I'm good. But you may be if you couldn't comprehend the part of my post where I said it was a first hand account from a poster on another board. :deal

 

Yeah, I'm sure if anyone is qualified to speak on nuts it'd be you with that ****ing tranny in your avy.

 

Same here, i lost $200 on that fight, oh well next time i wont bet when someone travels to anothers country.
I cant believe everyone who is bagging out holt though, they are likei knew it would happen, i saw him on FNF'satsch

 

you're ****ing stupid...I was at the fight, idiotatsch Wobbling but he kept fighting and moving. I'm not questioning how hurt Cotto was...we all know that...even a half a *** rocket scientist like yourself...:good

 

At the time that it happenned, Holt didn't complain about it, the ref couldn't see it because he was administering an eight count, and Holt went right back into the fray.

As a result, it doesn't count as anything.

Maybe if Holt had complained about it right away, or if it had cut him, or struck him unconscious, it could have become a determining factor. But as it was, it played no official part in the fight.

 

boxbible: it swolled up his right eye and Kendell even said his vision was blurry after the can hit his head. i have even read that someone from the crowd at ringside pulled kendells leg after he slipped on the surface and was trying to get up. I posted this in another thread but i lived in colombia for 5 months once and in barrenquilla and have seen how sporting events go down. that ref was scared shitless of the crowd and for good reason. I have seen soccer games down there where the ref would get physically attacked for making calls against the home team.

 

I think the official part is still in question because Holt has filed a protest. I also don't think that an immediate protest by Holt is critical given all the required attendees: judges, physician, sanctioning body representative, promoters, regional commission members; I got to believe that one of them will be able to shed some light on this situation.

From the reports that I've read the crowd was out of control and their actions were disgustingly bad. But to be fair not all the ringside reports have concurred. If Holt was indeed hit with a full can of beer in the head one would have to say the fight would have to be declared a no contest, with or without an immediate protest. Plus reports of the debris in the ring during the 11th round would have to be investigated.

If the negative reports are true I don't think we'll be seeing many fighters willing to travel to Columbia to fight. It's tough enough to fight a pro fighter without having to put up with the kind of crap that's being bandied about.

 

After analysing the video (and spoke to others who already saw it) I must say that K. Holt is a what you would call a *****.

The things his management claims like cans to have flown in the ring and his leg had been stranded are not true. Ok, some ice and kinda powder were thrown but no bigger or threatening items.

Holt was plain hurt the whole 11th round after Torres hit him with the left hook. He was simply trashed and ONLY show signs to fight AFTER the ref stopped the fight. The fight was very close till round 10, nobody really dominated.

This fight wasn't a robbery...

 

Holt pretty much ran the whole fight backpedaling and waiting for potshot counters. The only time he even attempted to move forward was after flooring Torres. In the 11th, they both threw left hooks while against the ropes but Torres' massive left landed first and knocked Holt senseless.

Torres proceeded to tee off on Holt finally cornering him and connecting with another series of good punches including a nice right straight, left hook, left uppercut, short right hook, left uppercut and a big right uppercut before the ref stepped in. I've seen plenty of earlier stoppages that were not contested.

Although I personally would let it go till someone can't stand up for the sake of clarity, most thing refs these days do not let it go that far before calling it a night. Holt was basically a punching bag up against the ropes with almost half a minute to go and another round to look forward to even if he made it out alive.
