sa śyena-vega utpatya
muṣṭī-kṛtya karāv ubhau
bhagavantaṁ vāsudevaṁ
kruddho vakṣasy abādhata
saḥ - he, Cāṇūra; śyena - of a hawk; vegaḥ - with the speed; utpatya - falling upon Him; muṣṭī - into fists; kṛtya - making; karau - his hands; ubhau - both; bhagavantam - the Supreme Lord; vāsudevam - Kṛṣṇa; kruddhaḥ - angry; vakṣasi - upon His chest; abādhata - struck.
Furious, Cāṇūra attacked Lord Vāsudeva with the speed of a hawk and struck His chest with both fists.
It appears that Cāṇūra, realizing he was being defeated, became furious and made a final attempt to defeat Lord Kṛṣṇa. The demon certainly had the spirit of a good fighter, but if he hoped for victory, he was certainly in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong person.
