Humburger might be seen taking heavy breaths earlier than combating his method again up and rocking Engizek with a superbly timed knee to Engizek’s chin. Engizek instinctively went again to his grappling, however it didn’t take lengthy for Humburger to reverse place and rain down elbows from the mount in the course of the ultimate 15 seconds of the stanza.
The back-and-forth brawling continued three minutes into the third earlier than Engizek went again to his wrestling, muscling Humburger all the way down to the mat. However like earlier than, Humburger popped again up, however the relentless assault of Engizek stored him from getting off any extra offense earlier than the ultimate bell.
