Manuel Charr vs. Taras Bidenko RBR

Round 11

Charr is still looking for the big finish with the right hand. Uppers and overhands all the way. The jab is just a preamble. Bidenko is flopping and ducking all over the ring, leaned just enough over to avoid the overhands or let them slide off his back and only just barely keeping his face clear of those uppers. Charr gets him backed nearly into the ropes and unloads. Bidenko circles off and reaches over with some cheeky left and right pokes to the body. Charr stands still and Bidenko flurries into his guard. One right hand by Charr ends that and backs Bidenko up to the ropes. Big right hands!! Bidenko is ducking and covering his head with both hands.

10-9 Charr

109-99

 

Round 12

Charr comes forward and throws some meaty hooks. A right uppercut drags low across the ring and catches Bidenko in the nutsack. The ref wags his finger but doesn't interrupt the action. Charr keeps forging ahead and hooking away as Bidenko seeks cover but finds the rather large ring to be a bit claustrophobic for his current liking. The tape on Bidenko's glove is loose so he gets another short reprieve. Better not have any water, Taras!! Charr throws a big uppercut after Bidenko had finished a quick soft flurry. Charr misses an overhand and is countered with a straight right hand. They exchange in the pocket and both land slapping hooks to the face. Charr starts working an uppercut over and over and backs Bidenko up to the ropes. Bidenko leaps off them to flop against Charr once more. Slapping flurries up close again.

10-9 Charr

119-108 Charr

I can only do so many things at once on this piece of crap work computer. Too many tabs open and it crashes or slows down severely.

I had one for the FigoSport feed up from 2:45pm EST when it went live, another to create a new thread here, a third to have Boxrec open (to confirm proper spellings of fighter names & their records) and a fourth with my thread history to copy/paste the disclaimer. It was moving like molasses, and freezing constantly, so by the time I actually hit the "Submit" button it was twenty minutes later. You'd already started yours a few minutes before that, but at the time I clicked "create new thread" you hadn't. So it wasn't until much, much later that I even noticed you had a separate thread going. Trying to open a new tab to PM you (before they just got merged) probably would have pushed the limit and wiped my system out!

The same thing happened today with me and RustBelt both making threads about the Pavlik-Jaro weigh in. :-( When I went to make one, nobody had yet. By the time I was able to copy/paste the weights from Twitter and then a pic of the two of them posing at the weigh-in from Google Image Search, RustBelt had already swooped in and made one several minutes before mine even got submitted.

This computer SUCKS. :twisted: Seriously, I'm running Windows 97 here.

 

It wasn't a good performance from Charr by any means, but really all Bidenko did was run and slap very lightly (and even then, mostly missed).
