	In the first rounds, the former National Box Promotion fighter (by the way, Virchis boxed in shorts with the logo of this organization) tried to take his counterpart out. Even before the fight, Taras was very nervous, which was caught by the cameras. His job was to drag the fight into the later rounds. In fact, he completed the task, but somewhat deviated from the coaching instructions, and was punished.

In fact, he completed the task, but somewhat deviated from the coaching instructions, and was punished.

	Bidenko's first fall to the canvas took place at the end of the second round. Virchis, like a cat, threw the mouse on the floor with his right hook, but Taras quickly got up and almost immediately the bell ~~sounded~~. Virchis started every round with a mass bombing of his oppoent ~~one~~ the ropes, but Bidenko skillfully dodged most of them, staying close to the ropes. Only in the 12th round was he punished for not giving enough respect to his opponent's attacks - it was after a series of slips by Bidenko at the ropes that Virchis finished the fight with an stoppage victory with a powerful right hand, but before that there were 9 long rounds.

	The third round began with powerful attacks from the more experienced fighter, but Bidenko skillfully avoided them using his footwork. Round 4 along with round 11 were some of the most exciting in the fight. The boxers got into a lot of all-in exchanges. Bidenko landed more often, but Virchis' punches constantly shook the opponent, and Virchis was hurt only once - in the 11th round. Bidenko, only thanks to a good vestibular system, did not drop while retreating when he got caught by the opponent's attack with the right.

	In the 11th round there was a moment characteristic for this fight.
