What's up with Torres vs. Holt?

[MightyMikeA]

This fight is all but less than two weeks away (9/1) and it hasn't been mentioned much if not at all. I think it will be an interesting fight to see and I'm also not sure if a network picked up the televising rights to this fight? Any info would be appreciated on this.

As for the fight itself, it will be fun to see if Holt will be able to engage a ****er like Torres without being intimidated or overly cautious like he was against Arnaoutis. Also will his chin hold up or will he use his overall better skillset and good power to UD or possibly knock out Torres.

There have been a couple threads on this fight here, but they didn't last long. What's your prediction?

This may sound crazy but I think Holt has RJJ type speed and power to make him a major playor at 140. I don't see any other fighter in that division with that type of combination. Though Holt's been KO'd before he's shown that when he puts it together he can put together some good wins. Though he did look tentative against a guy with some decent pop like Mike in his last fight, he stayed calm and did what he had to do to win.

I think Torres is going to pressure him and this will make the fight very interesting. Arnaoutis had also dropped Torres hard in their fight (many say Torres lost that fight) and if he doesn't show up game, then Holt is going to do him up worse. I'm leaning toward a clear UD for Holt, but with Holt's chin and tendency to go lax in the ring it will make it very interesting, but yeah, I think I'll take Holt by UD......who you guys got?

I know the fights in Columbia, so that could be a reason why the fight isn't being aired. I think Holt wins as well, he's just more skilled than Torres.
