    And i think there should be a 3rd match. torres won 1 and holt won 1, both being contreversial (the first way more than the second), so why not a 3rd?

    Torres always gets careless when he has an opponent hurt. Its nothing new. But the headbutt still had a bad affect on Torres and caused him the fight. It was a freak occurrence.

    The Cotto comment is hilarious.

    Bro thats not even real ... Cotto gets accused of murder against Kendall Holt.

    You would never see a more brutal beating ever in boxing ... Cotto will make sure that Holt does enough to take a serious beat down for about 7 or so rounds ... then finishes him and possibly ends his career.

    Torres is a top quality, class act.

    I think now is the time he takes a step back. And decides to learn abit more about the sweet science. I think even if he just becomes a REAL basic boxer. Nothing too fancy, just learns to keep his hands up and not swing so wild... He will be a VERY formidable force. I mean it isn't impossible either, he's fairly young and seems to be intelligent so he could learn/pick up a few tricks.

    I mean, look at Pac. He turned from a one dimensional puncher to a puncher boxer. So it is very realistic for Torres to do so.

    What do you ladies/gents think?

    Pac is still the same Pac ... he hasn't improved on anything ... he didn't do much of anything against Marquez ... he's just relying on his hand speed and quickness.

    Torres is fine ... he needs to develop a jab ... i'm sure if he jabbed his way in he wouldn't have had to worry about that clash of heads.

    He also has power in both hands ... getting Holt's attention early with a left hook.

    His right hand is deadly ...

    IMO ... he just needs a jab and learn how to consistantly keep his hands up.

    Yea. I think a jab would work AWESOME with his style. Also maybe just a tad more headmovement and REMEMBERING TO KEEP HIS HANDS UP after firing.

    You're bang on with the jab though.

    Exactly.

    As soon as the knockdown happened, I said to my wife it was setup by the headbutt.

    It's a shame, but that's boxing.

    I think the headbut is why Holt was able to get Torres out of there, if you watch that Gif you will see the damage that the headbut does it hits Torres on the chin as if it were a hard shot, as a result of both impact and location you can see The neck of Torres kink as if it were a hard shot, then his legs give this is before any shots land.
    I really think the WBO should review this fight

    your ****ing crazy Torres was in full comand until the moment that headbutt took place he had dropped his man twice early, do you really think Holt is going to admit he was hurt? of course not but guess what he was hurt, his conditioning saved him from being stopped.
    anyhow I think your assesment on the out come is a bit crazy to be honest with you.

    Give Holt Credit, he recovered pretty quick.
