Sgt Craig Pittman says he beat Karelin!

[TankAbbott]

Pittman claims the judges scored their match wrong and he out pointed Karelin.

The youtube channel runner says:

"According to the wrestling database on Foeldeak, Pittman never competed in international wrestling after 1989. Karelin DID compete (and won) the 1993 World Championship in Stockholm, Sweden, yet I don't see Pittman's name anywhere. Hmmm...."

Here's their previous (only?) match:

Wasnt Pittman the guy who Bischoff tried to get in an early UFC after Meng turned it down?

Well the UWW database only shows results from the worlds/olympics and other major international tournaments. So it’s possible that he did meet Karelin at another smaller event but his story is totally false. Of all the stories I’ve heard about Karelin, I’ve never heard this one or them doing some scoring shenanigans at a smaller probably meaningless event.

seems plausible considering Pittman fought at Vale Tudo Japan 95. too bad he got tapped by a 154 lb Jap that was blind in one eye.
