    Stiverne's face was still badly swollen and puffed up after the first fight, it looked like his nose was brpken also.

    Because Stiverne was still a fraction of the guy who made it four rounds with Demetrice King.

    I agree if you are noticeably holding back. I don't remember him holding back, he was throwing hard. But who knows, maybe it still wasn't full power. You are probably right that if affected the power.
