    Its amazing that the commetators didnt notice until late... As soon as I saw the replay I said "oh ****, the headbutt rocked him".

    It was accidental, and he took advantage of the opportunity, I wont take anything away from him.

    I want to see part III.
    Maybe the commentators couldn't see it because Torres had his back to them and it blocked their view of what was happening.

      That punch would have knocked a person out who had a granite chin, though Torres chin is suspect as much as Holts is. Torres never caught Holt that flush tonight, he nipped him and thats where those two knock downs came from not extremely flush shots.

      I got scared for Torres for a second though, I knew he would lose tonight but his eyes weren't moving at all after he was ko'd... I thought for a second he was dead

        When they replayed a different angle it clearly showed the headbutt. Unfortunately they didn't see that view until after the post-fight interview.

        Trust that I'm going to try and get that interview.

          That **** was very scary!!!! Cus he wasn't moving and the ref took a second to realize that he was all gone, a guy at ringside had to get the refs attension.

              I saw it immediately. The commentators were crediting the setup of the punch to a left hook to the body, but you don't react that way to a body shot. I wish they had the opportunity to ask Holt about the butt but still it was an excellent right hand that KO'ed Torres. Credit to him for being aware of the situation and capitalizing.
              Yeah, they even asked Holt about the left hook to the body as if it had set everything up... Torres had that fight in the bag, he was throwing bombs off balance and was open for the counter punch... unfortunately, he got a counter-butt and consequently a devastating right that snapped his head and had him shaking.

              I really did think that Mochuelo would convincingly KO Holt this time around.

                The camera angle showed it was clearly a headbutt.

                Good luck with getting the interview.

                  ahahahahaha one of the most unexpected fights i have ever seen i was ready for anything but that,

                  but i agree the right hand was perfect right on the chin, the headbutt just was an accident and he ended up in a bad position,
                  but thats not kendalls fault.

                    Not the first replay angles, but secondary ones afterwards did show a butt clearly. One thing was for sure that I didn't see a punch connected from the initial camera views.
