Holt smoked Torres with that right hand

Exactly what I thought last night, woke up at 4:15am (UK Time) and watched the fight and was an amazing one minute of action and was over so early that i flicked over and caught the final fight of UFC 86 and that nearly put me back to sleep, although i'm not a fan of mma.
Can we have a Holt-Torres 3 please?Comment

The butt didn't have anything to do with anything. He was stuck in the ropes and tried to get up, and didn't even see, or brace from the right hand coming. He gave no excuses, so why are you giving him one? Holt didn't butt anyone on purpose.Like Ive mentioned before, it is not Holt's fault and I dont blame him for taking the golden opportunity that was gifted to him... but one has to acknowledge that the opportunity to punch Torres would have not been there if the head-butt did not occur.
You and I both know what was happening in that fight prior to the headbutt.
I will also mention that Torres was quite irresponsible, he was throwing bombs off balance opening himself up for a counter, but Im sure he didnt expect a counter head-butt.
Torres was defenselss after the head-butt, Holt was lucky.Comment

May I just add obviously I have no criticism for Holt.
He done what he had too. He deserves an awful lot of credit for going to war after being knocked down twice.Comment

Actually Holt didnt recieve a head butt! Holt's HEAD landed on Torres' JAW.... Did you even see it? Torres' head whipped back from the butt.
Nobody has claimed that it was on purpose, but the headbutt was the catalyst to the KO.
Plain and basic common sense.Comment

I am neither of those two.
But Holt deserved a win the first time. I made a thread about it and proved my point.
If he did alot of running I wonder how he KOed Torres in the 6th round and today he KOed him in the 1st round headbutt or not headbutt.
You rarely see fighters from America fighting Latin America in there backyard and Columbian offical didnt handle the fight pretty well. The cans and bottle in the ring during the fight as well as after it.
That is a disgrace in boxing and Karma is a *****. Holt deserved to win the first time. and what is more disgrace is that he didnt get an immediate rematch but he have to fight for it.
Holt won over Torres and this is a history people who are going to remember for some time that first fight nobody talked alot about it.
It makes Cotto look abit overratedComment
