The headbutt was bad but it buzzed him at worst. He seemed okay.
That right hand was a howitzer. I mean, u get hit with that right hand flush, ur getting KOed.
The Headbutt was bad, but u cant blame holt for that. Torres was turning in and Holt was looking it up, it was completely accidental.
the KO shot was one of the most brutal i have seen in years. A PERFECT one-two. PERFECT. And Holt has always been a big puncher
This is exactly what i was trying to say
This is what im trying to say below. very well said
The headbutt hurt Torres and made him stumble back to the ropes giving Holt the opportunity to come forward to land that right hand.
That right hand would have knocked Torres out even if they didn't clash heads but the headbutt gave Holt the opportunity to come forward to land the shot.
The headbutt set Torres up for that wicked KO punch, so I'd say it made all the difference in the world. I agree that it was accidental though.
i agree with this... but still it was a pretty wicked headbutt
You pathetic excuse makers are trying to steal this victory from Holt.
That is funny..very funny.
i am not stealing his victory he won fair and square. you think a body shot hurt torres more than the headbutt which sent him slumping into the ropes and dropped his hands when everyone knows thats not the case.
The clean punch to the liver is what made him drop his hands and fall into the headbutt..
No liver shot...no KO.
Thats right, NO LIVER SHOT. Torres clearly blocked that body shot. CLEARLY.
The left hook to the body is what froze Torres...not the headbut.That was a clean bodyshot.
Holt got hit while he was down and showed a lot of heart by regrouping.
hahahahaahahaha
It was for sure a headbutt. I am watching it in slow mo right now. Holt throws a left hook to the body and moves over to his right. Torres is countering with a right hook, Holt starts to throw a right hand, Holts head catches Torres right on the tip of the chin, spins his head around and sends him reeling to the ropes.
That's how I saw it too, totally accidental but brutal headbutt.
I saw it from the initial view as well, I didn't see a punch connect that would make Torres react like he did and I think Holt winced a little as well which confirmed to me that it was a headbutt.

that is true but how do you get to land a perfect right hand without the headbutt? he's not gonna fall into the ropes and drop his hands just out of the clear blue.
The headbut was like a perfect left hook from Cotto, I have NO doubt that the headbut helped Holt but he finished it with the right hand.

You really have to look how things unfolded. That headbutt sent Torres stumbling into the ropes, Holt pounced and caught him with a vicious right hand as he bounced off the ropes. I am not entirely convinced Torres wouldn't have gone down on his own.
Thats really a shame though because live it was such a great round of boxing, but knowing that the end was started by a headbutt leaves a sour taste in your mouth.
I don't know how you can say he seemed okay when he stumbled into the ropes and got caught with the KO punch bouncing off the ropes. If the ropes were not there, there is no question in my mind that he would have hit the canvas from the headbutt.
This is a bummer because I was rooting for Holt to KO Torres legit.
Just seen the headbutt properly..WOOOOOOOW that was vicious so vicious it moved Torres from one position to another but the right hand just finished it.
Im pretty fucking sure that if Torres hand't gotten so fucking hyped he would've finished this guy.
I mean he knocked him down with the first counter puncher he thrown over Holt's jab. I mean damn, then he gets careless. I aint watch the fight live and im type tipsy because I was drinking. Just downloaded the dam fight. (it was 55MB so I thought someone got KO'ed quick) and I was right. I got hyped when Torres dropped him first then even more when the got a slight Knockdown the second time. Then the headbutt comes.. I knew that wasn't a punch cause it was so fast! Then that right hand.. I seen Torres and he was OUT! I knew it was over. A third fight must happen, if not.. I dont know what to say. Torres would win if he doesn't get careless.
that KO punch was sick. Headbutt got him good, but even without it, that right woulda finished him regardless.
that is true but how do you get to land a perfect right hand without the headbutt? he's not gonna fall into the ropes and drop his hands just out of the clear blue.
The headbutt helped a lot, but Holt started throwing back on the ropes and I think he would have managed to back him up. Holt wasn't even hurt that bad. Torres was out cold.
Good job for Jay Nady rushing in there after Holt went down the second time. Torres could have hit him with something ugly.
