:happy:happy Why am I so happy? Well, it's another televised boxing match - (almost) never a bad thing. Also, it may not be quite as big a deal as Pacquiao vs. Mayweather, but if you follow the sport this match-up has got to excite you - not because it will be competitive, but precisely because it won't be. :firedevi: Tim Coleman was handed an undeserved win over Mike Arnaoutis last month in a late addition to the shortlist of worst robberies of 2009. This was a crossroads type of meeting, with the outlook bleak for the loser of record (in this case Arnaoutis) and a televised win serving as a springboard into a fairly big opportunity for the winner (as we see here). Kendall Holt is a monster puncher despite his low KO ratio (and himself holds a legitimate shutout win over the very solid B-/B level Arnaoutis). Stylistically, Coleman has nothing with which to bail himself out - he will taste devastating power. Arnaoutis arguably doesn't belong in the ring with Holt any more than Coleman given the outcome of their first encounter, but he deserved the win in December and whatever opportunities that built off of it. Now his career has suffered a major setback, perhaps irrecuperably thanks once again to bad judging. Karma's a sexy *****.
I've seen Coleman twice so I'm no expert on the guy but I still don't think he beats Holt. The fight looks to be a nice style match up so it could be a decent fight. Good to see it getting tv coverage.
Kendall can definitely bang he's dropped a lot of the guys he went 12 with. I'd be more excited about this if I had FSN I suppose, but its good to see them picking up some good fights. The Martirosyan-Ouma fight is gonna air on FSN as well.
