    Word is that Holt would rather fight Kaizer Mabuza. He wants to take the easiest road possible. I guess i dont blame him. Forbes would've spanked that ass!!!! Holt def. can't say he's the most feared man at 140, when he's clearly fearful of Forbes.

    The fight is up on Boxrec so I guess it's a go. Holt said Forbes 'wasn't even ranked' for the reason he wouldn't fight him

    Considering it's supposed to be a title eliminator, that's a pretty good reason.

    Even if Forbes was ranked, he still would have gone with a bum like Mabuza. Forbes not being ranked has nothing to do with it. He's taking the easier path, plain and simple. Nothing wrong with that, just dont make claims that you (Holt) are the most feared 140lbs and that nobody wants to fight you. Forbes was willing to step-up and Holt stepped out. Forbes i think was approved for the fight. Rater R Holt is more like pg-13 to me!

    Just want to see good competitve fights. Holt vs Mabuza is a joke. At least Holt vs Forbes would be an exciting fight.

    Holt Vs Maidana would have been cool. Too bad Amir Khunt is keeping Maidana on standby.

    I agree. Holt wants a title shot so he should fight someone in the top 15 for that shot

    I'm sure Holt vs Mabuza will be just spectacular!!! lol Mabuza is 22-6 with 3 draws. never fought in the U.S, and has never had a significant win in his whole career. Way to go Holt.
