[quote="Brute"]Oganov's rabbit punches did not help Pitt, but getting the upper hand for a short time is not enough if you don't go on with it.
With 12 months gone since the fight Oganov does not seem keen for a rematch.[/quote]
does not seem keen?
based on what ffs? hilarious!!!!
oganov was far from happy and was requesting a rematch but was not given it.
seems u r wrong.

There is no God and Oganov has had plenty of time to organise a rematch.
Has he retired?

In case you haven't seen the fight you might like to watch it, particularly from the 14 minute mark onwards. You might notice the knock down and count...I am sure you will disaagree with it but that is a knock down in my books.

I agree with you though. 12 months on a rematch probably isn't in order.
I just don't think all this talk of Pitt not having anyone left here to fight is warranted. To me, the Oganov fight showed he has a ways to go before challenging on the international stage. I thought he went missing a bit when the going got tough, but that is just my opinion.
You would count a knockdown from a rabbit punch, then? The rabbit punch has always been illegal.

bit hard to organise a rematch when your opponent won't agree to it.
maybe u didn't think of that though.

As the ref did, I would count that as a knock down. It was a hook the Pitt tried to duck and lunge forward into. Fair play IMO.

I wa there that night and it looked like a good shot from my cheap seats. This was a fight screaming out for a rematch but really Hollywood should have learned from it and should win easy next time if only for his physical advantage.
It's a fight we want to see but that is not a reason for it to be made I guess
