good fight...bomber with the win

Posted by Juha82 on May 24, 2008 at 3:22 AM agree

Cummer kept his head more low than Bomber but ate one at his nose and other to the side of his head.
Cummer did have land one to the side of Bomber's helmet/face area and helmet goes off.
They threw them quickly, going toe to toe with no wrestling/grappling.
Cummer threw 8, 1 landing solidly taking helmet off of Bomber's head.
BOmber threw 11, 3 landing as one of these punches was more a grazer.
They narrowly missed with few although Bomber got in a grazer one and maybe another one too as they goes toe to toe.
It ended on the boards/bench as Bomber starts wrestling but only couple second and the officials comes in.
EDGE Bomber.

decent scrap. bomber was throwing wild and managed to avoid most of cummins' better thrown straights.

Great fight these guys whale it out Baumgartner seems to land 2 punches for every one of cummins - - Baumgartner known for his solid left punch shows he may of been the fastest fighter of all time

This is a good fight. Behind the play Baumgartner and Cummins hook up. They both wrestle at first with Bomber trying to pull his left loose. He then misses wildly with a left. As they continue to grapple they move towards the boards. Bomber pulls his left free and fires 5 shots, landing at least three and knocking Cummins' helmet off. Just as Bomber is ending this flurry, Cummins begins firing rapidly with right hands. He lands two quick shots, knocking Bomber's helmet off as well.

Bomber switches to his right as Cummins fires away. He throws two glancing rights before switching back to his left. Here they both exchange a wild flurry of punches. Cummins has his head down and is throwing rights. Bomber seems to land better with his left hands.

Bomber then grapples with Cummins and forces him up against the boards. The linesmen make their way in and break up the fracas.

I have to give Bomber a slight edge in this fight. Both fighters got some punches in during this dust-up, but I feel Bomber landed the better shots. Cummins was always game, but he was a little overmatched against Baumgartner.

I have alot of "spect" for these guys and I have to give Baumer the edge based on quality of punches landed.
