    Unfortunately at this level you have to have a solid chin to make it. Even someone like Malignaggi might be able to KO Holt if he lands enough.

    holt's a glass jawed joke with decent skills, but definitely nothing more than a Friday Night Fights headliner until he gets knocked out again

    I think you've mapped out Holt's career trajectory to a "T" here. :good Like I said, you can't hang with the big boys with a chin as shaky as his. He's bound to get starched again as soon as he faces anybody decent.:yep

    zakman: did u see the youtube video of round 11 against torres, does Holt's chin look that shaky?! he seemed to have recouperated very quickly considering he just got knocked down against ricard torres who is one hellava banger at 140. Remeber torres knocked down cotto and had him very hurt. A lot of you are dismissing kendell holt like he is a nobody. This man will become champ and has some serious skills. his chin is alright not the greatest, but i have seen him come off the ground to win and that says a lot in my book about his heart.

    Zakman is first in the General Forum Boxing Tipping Comp Newbie and i am currently 1st in the Aussie Forum Tipping Comp.

    And we are the losers that never have watched boxing. Well if you were like me and Zakman we watched Holt get destroyed by a out of the ring 2 years brick layer in Thomas Davis yet we know nothing.

    Newbie i feel you are out of your element.
    Donnie Shut the **** Up.

    watch out for holt man thats all i gotta say. Lets see who jumps the bandwagon later on. dont worry i got these posts logged. its gonna be fun trust me. i watched enough boxing in my life to know talent when i see it and his counterpunching is world class stuff. and i did see that fight 2 years ago when he got starched, the fact he rebounded off of that to beat arounatis and torres and david diaz speaks volume about his heart and head. And yes, he beat torres in my eyes despite what the record says.

    I know everyone just goes on about,. hey i watched him vs Davis.

    It doesnt matter that you's are both coming first, i came first last tipping comp.
    Soi what if you saw Holt get ko'd by Davis, MAB got ko'd by Junior Jones and Pacman, why didnt he get ko'd by The prince Naz then?
    Pacman has been stopped before why hast he been ko'd lately.
    Why Didnt lennox lewis get ko'd by Tua since tua can hit harder then Hasim and mcall?
    Not trying to go on about this, but we all saw him get ko'd by Davis.
    But we all have seen Holt's skills, he stopped David Diaz, Ruined Isaac Hlatshwayo undefeated record (who is gonna fight medley).
    We all saw Torres fight and get a gift from Mike arnoutouis(sic).
    Make a poll and ask who everone think has the better skills between Holt and Torres.
    On another site and other previews just about everyone is picking Holt to win, but they were worried because it was in Columbia!

    Well Robot i wasnt in the other tipping comps you won this is my first at Easside.
    Having said that Thomas Davis is far from in the same league as Junior Jones and Pacman now isnt it.

    Holt just another ESPN boy that the crew down there got behind. Sure he has talent but so has Amir Khan now he has the same problem Holt does you cant touch to have a granite chin.
    My point isnt about how good Holts skill is. Its more to do with i picked because the fight was in Columbia also it was against a guy that with Power which Holts chin was always suspect. My pick had more to do with that im just saying Holt might win agaist the David Diaz'z of the world or maybe even the Gavin Rees.
    But he is going to struggle big time against the real contenders.
