Boxing After Dark: Kendall Holt vs. Ricardo Torres

Ricardo Torres and Kendall Holt met last night in a rematch for the WBO light welterweight title. The first bout ended in a controversial stoppage victory for Ricardo Torres.  This one ended in a KO. See the fight in its entirety below, all 61 seconds of it. Could be more action in this one round then Wlad Klitschko's last three fights.


Thank god we don't have to listen to Setanta's commentators on a regular basis (only video available).

Looked like an unintentional head-butt may have helped Holt set up the big right hand that gave Torres only his second professional defeat (first loss was to Cotto), but no mention was made of it until quite sometime after the final bell. Looks like a rubber match should be in order that will no doubt be as exciting as the first two.
