Kendall Holt VS. Juan Manuel Marquez@140

[Pullcounter]

Holt doesnt punch that hard, he got 25 wins and only 13 ko's, he's no Torres, that KO was mostly a headbutt. Also dont let the Torres fight fool you, Holt is no brawler, he mostly boxes boring fights, a fight against Marquez wont be a brawl. And it wont be hard to climb up 5 pounds. The man is healthy and fit and if Pacman couldnt KO him in a slugfest, I doubt Holt will in a technical fight

i dunno man, just cuz pac is tearing through these divisions doesnt mean jmm will.

I see what you mean but I think you kind of overrating Holt, I'm a fan of his but a win over D-Hop dont really do it for me although he did beat Torres and David Diaz(although Diaz aint to great either)

I think Holt would really prove something if he can beat Bradley

jmm just kayoed the lightweight linear champion casamayor at his first fight there, who was never stopped. i'm kinda inclined to think that jmm can be competetive at 140.

holt is a good fighter, not on par w/ jmm p4p, but I just think jmm is too small at 140. jmm has a chance to outbox holt, but holt is taller and has reach.

that was a great win for jmm, but casamayor has seen better days and got careless/overconfident imho. i think jmm said that whoever made the least mistakes would win.

i agree that casa was past it. but watching that bout made me realize that jmm can carry his power in these upper weights while still maintaning his good speed.

question is if he can beat a 140 belt holder like Holt

i think casamayor said jmm's punches werent that strong, but the combination punching did him in.

imho holt/jmm is a close tactical fight and jmm has no guarantee of victory. its too low reward high risk.

Its hard to say being that he hasn't fought there yet. But if I were to pick I would say Holt he might be too quick and powerful

jmm beats holt at anyweight

it's common for boxers who got ko'd to say that their opponent 'doesn't hit that hard"

agree with you though it would be a tactical fight. i kinda leaning now towards JMM. A headbutt ko win againts torres and decision win againts hopkins doesn't do much for me.
