[Alright, now this is something more like it. Rude lets out a grunt, but takes the hit with his arm anyway just to test Carter. Definitely the man's got some potential. He doesn't have finesse and Carter swings too wide and too slow, but those are things that can be improved.
Time for a counter-attack.
Following the right hook Rude waits for another attack, feinting a block similar to the previous ones. Only this time Rude takes a bit more initiative; rather than merely blocking, he follows up the block with a forceful push to knock Carter's arm away roughly and counter-attack with a quick left jab to Carter's side. It's definitely a balanced hit; nothing too forceful but nothing held back. Rude needs to know how much the guy can take.]
