I remember Torres taking Miguel Cotto to the limit in their barnstormer but think that had a lot to do with Cotto throwing caution to the wind. Holt has the skill and speed to outbox Torres but a chin and recuperation not as good as Cotto so this fight could go either way if Torres tags him. Any opinions?

I think Torres will catch Holt and take him out, middle to late rounds.

I think Holt will comfortably outbox Torres, but will get caught and have to come off the canvas to secure a close win.

I'm going Torres KO. Holt looks like he can be caught, and most dangerously he seems to not realize it yet.

Last I heard, no. Unfortunately.

I agree, but I actually think Holt's speed, skillset, and power will end it by the 7th rd!! I think Holt is the most dangerous fighter at 140lbs!!

holt needs a stoppage or wide margin decision to win this, given that the fight is in columbia, anything else will go to torres

Holt has a lot of things on Torres. A)He can outbox torres all day. 2) Torres doesn't have as good speed or ring generalship as Holy and D)Holt can crack with both hands-

Now, his chin is a little suspect, but Torres is too slow, I think, to land flush. Also, Torres doesn't have a "last chance" mentality. Mark my words- Holt will come with a focus the likes of which are rarely seen in boxing anymore.

Not on American TV at least. Holt should win this fight EASY.

No outcome would surprise me. Both cats can bang, and both cats are chinny. I'm leaning towards Holt though. Mainly because Torres doesn't like to train and struggles to make the weight.

Ha . . . ha . . . ha . . . this is a very good one. It's either Torres by K.O./T.K.O. or Kendal by Decission.

I'm picking Torres. :yep

I am picking Holt to win a UD. Still will be a very close fight, and could go either way. I think that Torres is only effective with his power if you trade in the pocket with him, and I think Holt will be too smart for that.
