Don't listen to GreatestSin.

What happened was that Accelerator really was trashing him and dominating the fight. Beforehand, the LN showed that Accelerator wasn't thinking at 100% clarity since pain from being punched by Touma was messing with his head; basically, due to Accelerator having acquired Reflect from a young age, he never had to deal with pain as anything that could do that bounced off of him. Then Touma came around, punching right through Reflection, and making Accel hurt in such a way he has never felt before and this messed with his head.

After not feeling pain for around 10 years, suddenly getting your face smashed in can do that. I'll leave it up to you to judge whether not using the pain sensors/nerves for a few years made them more sensitive to pain, as this additional factor only magnified the extent of pain clouding Accel's mind.

(Have you watched the Kara no Kyoukai movies? One of the antagonist is a telekinetic girl who acquired insensitivity to pain, or analgesia, at a young age, and basically turned crazy when someone healed her insensitivity and revealed she had appendicitis, which she would have never noticed otherwise and she thought the pain was due to being stabbed by her rapists)

But, the most important part, despite that, Accelerator quickly figured out countermeasures to bypass Imagine Breaker, and thus threw rails at him and caused a dust explosion, as well as using the environment to his advantage. Soon enough, as expected, Touma is barely conscious on the ground while Accelerator discovered his newfound power of creating plasma.

Thankfully then, the Misaka Sisters manipulated the Wind Turbines to buy time, otherwise Accelerator would have fried Touma with the Plasma as Touma was still lying down.

unfortunatly most of toumas fights seem like that

They really aren't.
