I agree. You are damn good at picking fights if you saw this one happening. In hindsight, I guess people should have really paid attention to the fact that: 1. Oganov had not fought good opposition. When he did "step it up," he took longer to KO fighters who really weren't that good. 2. Zuniga has a damn good chin. His only stoppage loss was against Pavlik, and people like me who sometimes rely on boxrec too much didn't realize that it was on cuts, and that he had Kelly down in the 1st. 3. I know Oganov was thought of as the puncher in this fight, obviously. But Zuniga has 17 KO's in 20 wins. Obviously he can get opponents out of there pretty well. Yet almost no one predicted that he would win by KO.
The bottomline is Oganov's lack of skill got exposed by Zuniga:yep :good Now, I picked Oganov(whom I now refer to as Beef Stroganoff ) to win by a close decison figuring the judges would give him a decison as the favorite. Yet, Zuniga squashed any such chance by continuing to pound the lesser skilled power puncher until he dropped him like a bad habit. Stroganoff's lack of skill= no jab, little bodywork, and bad footwork. These factors helped allow Zuniga to outwork and outskill Stroganoff until his chin and will were broken:good That said?? Neither of these two would amount to **** vs the likes of Calzaghe or Kessler. Hell, Berrio would be favored as well.
