    Did the headbutt really effect Torres?

    I sure think it did. And many people on here will try and say it's because Holt is black that the world has conspired against him to try and "discredit" him but if you look Holt hadn't landed anything significant prior to the headbutt and once the headbutt landed Torres rocked back and after that Holt managed to land a scoring blow.

    Yes, it effected Torres and that is why he went down.

    No, It didn't effect him and it was Holt's punch and Holt's punch only that KO'd him.

    Well I think this has been spoken to death, but if your late on the news, I'll give it. Holt was cut from the headbutt, that's how bad it was. The headbutt wasn't with Torres forehead, it was with his chin. So Holt connects with a bad enough headbutt to cause a cut above his right eye by clashing into Torre's chin. Brutal. Then you clearly see Torres legs buckle and he falls into ropes. As he's trying to regain stablity and get himself out of the ropes, his hands are wide open, before he can pull them together to block the howitzer coming at him, he's lights out. The end.

      I wwatched the fight and saw what ahppened and understand what you are saying and also agree.. despite all that though people are saying it's racial and that is why they are trying to take away from Holt's win.. that is the reason I made the poll.

            How did Nady not see the headbut, a man doesnt just woble like that for no reason. The headbut was viscious, put him out of it and the right hand was the icing on the cake.
