Comments: The camera comes in late and shows both guys trying to get loose. The announcer says that Downey had wrestled Vandermeer to the ice before the camera had gotten to the action. Downey lands four lefts on Vandermeer. Vandermeer comes back with a right. They struggle to get loose and Vandermeer lands four consecutive lefts. They then go toe-to-toe over about 20-25 seconds. They tie up and a linesman comes in to break it up but Downey pushes him away and proceeds to land a bomb. Downey then lands about 5-6 lefts. Vandermeer comes back with a right. Downey starts spinning Vandermeer around and lands about 3-4 lefts. Vandermeer has his right cocked and lands one. Downey lands a few short rights. Vandermeer has his right cocked again and lands a shot that sends Downey off-balance and to the ice.

Awesome fight. If you picked a winner for that tilt, you are high as a kite, they just beat the tar out of each other.

WOW! What a fight, what a fight! Vandermeer comes out on top in a complete knockdown-drag out brawl with Downey.

Great fight and credit to Downey, Vandermeer may have technically won, but he didn't look like a winner to me.

Downey got swung to the ground, crappy way for a big guy to end a fight. I give it to Downey because of the handicap.
