Summary[]
As the Naniwa coach wonders why Sendō isn't chasing Nargo, Yanaoka claims that Mashiba got him good in the waiting room, and he can feel it in his legs. Aoki and Kimura notices that Sendō's swings are all over the place now and he is punching so hard it is making him off balanced. Bill notices Sendō's stance has his weak points exposes while fighting head-on, which requires pressure, pride, determination, and confidence, however, the punches thrown from that stance is completely telegraphed, which is why it is rarely seen in modern boxing, and is a from that embodies conceit. Mashiba is annoyed that ever since Sendō took that stance, Nargo has been having a hard time dodging, as Sendō has something natural a lot of brawlers have: instinct and intuition about where to punch. When Sendō throws a left, and Nargo dashes to the right to dodge, Sendō hits Nargo's guard with a right without changing his position from throwing the left. As Sendō throws a Smash, Nargo clinches. However, Nargo suddenly starts to keel over.
