Since some people don't seem to have Showtime, I'll do some play by play. So, just letting anyone who can't see the fight, get a chance to know what's happening.
Funniest play by play ever. "Torres is dead". I honestly thought that for a minute. When he was absolutely limp on the ropes I started screaming, "OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! BABE COME LOOK!" and my girlfriend fresh out the shower comes flying into the room topless like, "What happened?!". She stands there for a second and goes, "Is that guy dead?"
He wasn't going down from that shot but it stopped him dead in his tracks..and it did cause him to drop his hands.
Stop with the headbutt EXCUSE.
Holt took his best shots...showed HEART getting off the floor..and knocked his ass smooth the fuck out.
No controversy...unlike the first fight.
even in the face of clear evidence you keep fighting on. it caused him to drop his hands? is that why he was throwing a punch when the headbutt hit him?
Torres got KTFO after landing his best shots.
Deal with it and STOP MAKING EXCUSES.
Clearly, you are biased. It's not an excuse when it ACTUALLY happens. That's called reality.
If the ref. makes the mistake of calling a slip a knockdown, it's not an excuse for a loss if the fighter loses by a point on one card. That's called.. REALITY.

The fuck are you talking about, it stopped him dead in his tracks. He threw a punch AFTER that shot. Watch the film, it doesn't lie.
He got hit on the liver as he was punching..he was not expecting or prepared for that shot.
The liver shot dropped his hands.
WTF are you talking about? Did you even watch the damn fight? YOu need it slow mo? Look my dude. It was clearly a headbutt.
HEADBUTT! That livershot was delivered and so was the headbutt a nanosecond later. The liver shot aint make his hands go low. Damn son. What you smoking? :nonono:

The liver shot dropped his hands.
he got hit with the "devastating liver shot" then threw a right hand and crashed heads with holt knocking his head back violently. i guess after they knocked heads he realized how bad that body shot was and slumped into the ropes with his hands down thinking "wow what a body shot"
He got hit on the liver as he was punching..he was not expecting or prepared for that shot.
The liver shot dropped his hands.
Even if that's the case, he wouldn't have gone down from that shot and would have been able to see or prepare for the shot that came after. Unfortunetely, that shot was a head butt, that.. well...... you can't block much.
The headbutt wasn't even intentional.
So you can't blame that on Holt either.
The shot to the liver is why Torres had his hands down in the first place.
The headbutt is an EXCUSE..
That shot to the liver was DECENT at best, nothing that compares to the shots Cotto delivered that Torres took well for a while. He stumbled when he got headbutted. Video tape doesn't lie. I'm not saying he meant to headbutt him. But, you might not mean to trip someone in a race, it still affects who wins the race.
holt knocks out torres in 1 minute it took cotto 5 rounds so holt is now better than cotto and p4p number 2 behind sugar ray leonard ellerbe.
Lol here comes the bullshit logic again.
:nonono:
Torres hit Holt while he was down..
Why not boo that???
Because when you go down and pop right back up midswing, you're bound to get hit by a punch already coming. The ref should be in the middle of that. A good ref would have been. Can't blame Torres for doing what he trains to do.
Now, headbutting, is an entirely different matter all together.
Could have been a knockdown even before Holt landed the killer punch. He went careening into the ropes, ropes held him up, KD. Except it was a headbutt. Looked like a short right on first viewing though.
Nady was slowwwww.
Fuck, I missed the fight....It sounds like it was a glass chin war!!!
torres just got caught in a bad position.
hard to defend yourself offbalance and sitting on the ropes......
holt sucks. ricardo will be back. bad chin or not he has pop and an exciting fighter to watch.
