This content is protected

Amir Khan came through his toughest test to date to win an absolute barnstormer against Kendall Holt. It looked to be an easy night for Amir when he sent Kendall to the canvas midway through round 2, but Holt beat the count however he was down again in the third a lightning quick combination proving to much to handle. Yet the resilient Holt rose again and recovered well. He got himself back into the fight as the rounds went on. And then in round seven he re payed the favor by sending Khan to the canvas this time with a beautiful body shot, Khan managed to beat the count only to land up back on the canvas ten seconds later, he again got to his feet but looked in big trouble only to be saved by the bell. The beginning of round number 8 Holt came out swinging trying to finish off Khan only to walk on to a huge right hook that nearly took his head off. Kendall this time could not beat the count and Amir Khan picked up a well earned victory.

 

Matthysse's power to much for Soto

In what was expected to be a much closer fight Lucas Matthysse ended up blowing away Humberto Soto. The tough Mexican had only ever been stopped once in a long grueling career, so although we knew the Argentinian Matthysse had devastating power we wasnt expecting such an early night. Soto started well controling the fight with his jab in the first round but in round two Lucas exploded and threw a barrage of shots that had Soto out cold on his feet with the referee having no choice but to step in and end the fight, a very impressive win for the Argentinian.

Erik Morales squeaked past Irishman Paul McCloskey by way of a split decision victory. The Mexican started well controlling the fight as McCloskey looked in awe of the legend and it all seemed to much for him however Paul found his rhythm through the mid stages of the fight and took the fight to Morales in the closing stages. There where a lot of different opinions as to who deserved the win but the general opinion was that McCloskey just hadn't done quite enough and this was to be proven correct as two judges gave it to Morales 116-113 and 116-114 where as the third gave it to McCloskey 115-113. A good fight with both men looking good at different stages.
