Manuel Charr - A Gentleman in Brutal Sports -

In boxing there is blood, there are injuries, there is knockdown, there is knockout, there is technical knockout, there is one punch knockout, and there is knockout cold.
Boxing also have rib injuries, jaw breaking, teeth breaking. Blood bath, blood vomit. Eye socket breaking. Furthermore thee is lot of humiliation and lot of pride as well, making a strong man taking knee or someone like victor Ortiz says no to referee when he asks “Do o want to continue?” there is humiliation of landing into someone’s feet and thee is humiliation of saying a lot and delivering nothing. There is humiliation of promise of knockout before fight and ending fight with one’s own knockout. There is humiliation of retiring on stool. There is humiliation of quitting fight. There is trash talk in boxing like Floyd Mayweather did. There is sucker punch in boxing, there are low blows. In boxing we see fights after bells and even after 12th bell we have witnessed the brawls. We see bare knuckle punches, a lot of swearing and abusing. Almost all boxers take this behavior outside the ring as well. They behave badly in routine; they use bad language in interviews and a lot more. We have seen a lot of boxers taking advantage of their power and beating someone on road like Zab Judah.

And then we see a smiling a decent man in the same sports, who never talked in bad manner with his opponents. If he wins he celebrates for himself and if he loses he celebrates for the opponent. He hugs them, cheers them. He is Manuel Charr WBA International Heavy Weight Champion. Who has faced many heavy weight champs. He has been World Champion in Thai-Boxing in 2005 and European Champion in Kick-Boxing and German Champion in Muay Thai. He was and is part of these brutal and merciless games but he never showed bad behavior and never relied upon trash talks to get in skins of opponents. He maintains his gentleman behavior in any condition.  Even he celebrated for Alexander Povetkin who knocked him out in round 7 for their fight back in Russia. In his fight with Yakup Saglam when Yakup Saglam was unable to continue after first round Manuel charr raised hands of his opponent and cheered for him and asked crowd to give Yakup Saglam a standing ovation. His last fight was a title boot and Charr won it with a unanimous decision against his undefeated opponent Sefer Seferi. This bout demonstrated love and respect in press conferences and result announcing ceremony when Charr raised flag of Albania to cheer p his opponents fan. After every fight he demonstrates the sign of peach on every side of the ring. He raises his voice for the peace in Syria, Palestine and Indian Occupied Kashmir.



Outside the ring his gentleman behavior is with him too. He was attempted to murder b one of his close friend and got 3 bullets in stomach. It was a critical situation but he was saved and when his attempted assassin admitted and asked for forgiveness and wanted to pay him 15000 euro. Charr showed the same brave heart and not only forgave his attempted assassin Yussef Hassan but also refused to take the amount from him. This needs a lot of courage to forgive one who tried to kill you. It needs a heart of Manuel char to do so. Charr is now WBA international champion in heavy weight division and still manages to have friendly chat with his social media followers and he is always ready to helps others.
