    Did anyone see the Zuniga-Oganov fight? If so, what was it like? I suspect the only person that may have seen it would be sean!

    Whatever. Calzaghe is lineal, Ring and undisputed champion. No, he doesn't actually hold the belt, but the fact that he never lost that belt in the ring means he's still undisputed.

    What American top name could Kessler "beat down"? Pavlik is still a division below, and frankly, Taylor is a bad style matchup for Kessler. Maybe he could beat Winky, but I doubt that fight gets made unless Kessler's willing to put his own money on the line (I can't see that being that big of a money fight to get Winky to do it). After that, who's around? Nobody really.

    Calzaghe is as unified as you can get in todays boxing climate. One of the abc companies will take a belt off of you one way or another.

    sad case that i am yes i saw it.

    in the first round oganov came out like a little bull expecting to blow zuniga away.

    zuniga tucked up but was never hurt.

    after that zuniga realised he had a slow/small/muscle bound fighter with heavy hands but no skill or boxing abilty and gradulaly took over and grew in confidence able to outbox oganov who kept trying but was even more lmited than zuniga is.

    until at the end he teed of on oganov hitting him at will,about round 8 hurting oganov who simply did not have any defensive skill and he started to tetter about on shaky legs until he was stopped.

    zuniga decent journyman type fighter .

    oganov , hugley padded record as he was to stiff/small/and had no boxing abilty .

    first time i had seen oganov.

    new his record but was very disapointed.

    Thanks sean! :good

    I too, had looked at Oganovs record and thought that he must have something going for him but that report sounds very disappointing.

    Much appreciated
