Details[]
- Title Page Character(s): Alfredo González, Ippo Makunouchi
Summary[]
Since Alfredo moves back while punching to avoid Ippo's charge, Ippo ducks to the left to avoid a left jab, and throws a Gazelle Punch, but it gets blocked. Alfredo loses balance while blocking, which lets Ippo get close to him, however, Alfredo hits him twice before backing away again. Mashiba observes how Alfredo lands a bunch of hits when a big punch misses, and no matter how tough one is, the damage builds up. While Sendō is annoyed that Alfredo is playing it too safe with not throwing knockout punches, Miyata notes the risks in doing so, thinking he could learn from this. Kamogawa thinks how Ippo has used almost every weapon that he has built over his entire career, but there still doesn't seem to be a way through. Kamogawa is confused as to why he keeps remembering Wally. Ippo continues missing in his charge while getting hit a bunch of times, however, he refuses to give up.
