Polish heavyweight and five-time World’s Strongest Man winner Mariusz
Pudzianowski avenged a May loss to James Thompson with a
contentious majority-decision win in the main event of Saturday’s KSW 17
event in Lodz, Poland.
Pudzianowski clearly dropped the opening round after Thompson
outstruck and outgrappled his foe. In the second, Pudzianowski battled
back to land a few shots of his own, and most expected the two-round
fight to head to an overtime frame.
It did not, and Pudzianowski was awarded a majority-decision win.
