The fact that Holmes couldn't put Dredger down shows how overrated Holmes is. Balboa would bust Dredgers shit up. The Pikey would break Dredgers neck with one punch.
Holmes wasn't known for his strength was he? And he didn't try to use his mind to take down Dredger, that was the whole point of the scene.

From what we saw onscreen, Dredger doesn't actually seem to get hurt by physical beating. He appears immune to it. (gets hit in the face with a hammer and doesn't leave a mark.) He can only be chocked into submission. from behind.
