Yeah, he set it up nicely.

89% in the online poll have M'Pumbu.

1st to Veigh - landed some big right hooks, and effectively cut off the cage with his tightly wound pressure in the southpaw stance. Lost dominant position on the ground pretty quickly but didn't get in much trouble over it. The best M'Pumbu managed was a front headlock that lasted over a minute. Arm drag by Veigh in the last thirty seconds, unexpected.

M'Pumbu backing up in straight lines. Might get cracked again.

He's just pawing the left jab, flinching when Veigh moves a muscle...I don't like his body language one bit.

IntentionalButt · 02-28-2013, 11:47 PM

20-18 to the challenger. M'Pumbu got in some stiff right kicks across the midsection (and tried parlaying Veigh's toe hold into a sharpshooter at one point?!? Was I hallucinating?

) but got walked down again looking terrified of every strike.

The boo birds are harmonizing.

IntentionalButt · 02-28-2013, 11:51 PM

Big left uppercut rocks the already low-dipping and off-balance champion onto his back.

Veigh soon grinds into side control, "accidentally" kneels on M'Pumbu's face a bit, and works some GNP. M'Pumbu does nothing but stick his jaundiced feet straight up and look for a stray wrist to grab while defending. HARD ELBOW by Veigh, horrible cut opened up. M'Pumbu's skull is pouring like a fire hydrant.

Rob_Floyd · 02-28-2013, 11:52 PM

Vegh likely up three rounds. I figured that the longer the fight went, the more it favoured M'Pumbu, but Vegh doesn't appear to be fading too much.

The boos are bit much.

Interestingly, neither has ever been to the championship rounds. Both are in strange territory in the 4th.

Figured the edge would go to the guy that cuts literally no weight in this scenario. Vegh is a huge LHW, but his cardio seems fine going down the stretch.

IntentionalButt · 02-28-2013, 11:59 PM

I thought M'Pumbu could finally be taking one around midway, then a few straight punches completely disoriented him with about two minutes left.

The ref forced him to break a very long hold on Veigh's legs, stalling.

IntentionalButt · 03-01-2013, 12:00 AM

Christian needs to bang a U-turn in aggressiveness so he can score a sub or KO to retain, IMO.

IntentionalButt · 03-01-2013, 12:04 AM

Here it comes! M'Pumbu throwing the 1-2 and pushing Attila back.

Nice two-way action in the 5th, comparatively speaking. Oddly enough, still a few people booing.

49-46 Veigh

Rob_Floyd · 03-01-2013, 12:05 AM

Real poor showing from M'Pumbu.

Not overly impressed with Vegh, either.
