    Holt's not an easy fighter to outbox. To beat him you gotta pressure him, and knock him out. And I dont see D-Hop having the power, or style to do that. I think Holt's gonna stop D-Hop, either that or he'll beat his ass every round like he did Issac Hlaswyao(sp?)

    After this, hopefully we get to see Holt-Bradley, cause thats a fight I REALLY wanna see!
