Next out are Dengar of Greeble-23 and Yana Shemyakina, representing Ukraine.

At least Dengar isn’t shackled and hobbled like the others we’ve seen so far, although it is a shame he only has a wooden stick to fence with – that’s got to be a real handicap.

Referee Bidness calls “Fence!” and Dengar is off the line with a cut to Shemyakina’s glove, which the Ukrainian fencer just barely parries! A strong start!

Dengar pursues his advantage with a cut to five.

Shemyakina parries and ripostes, scoring the first touch of the bout!

Wait! Dengar has slipped and fallen – it looks like his head is bleeding! This is what happens when you don’t wear a mask!

Here come the medics to haul him away. Bout to Hic et Nunc, I guess. This is very disappointing, Barbara – Dengar seemed to have real talent!
