Summary[]
Takamura wonders what he should do about Bison's Flicker Jabs, as they are heavy and will hurt. Aoki is surprised that Takamura stopped in his tracks to think and asks Ippo, Itagaki, and Kimura to yell out advice on how to deal with Flicker Jabs since they dealt with them before, however, the three point out the methods they use worked for them but not against Bison, as he is on another level. Takamura decides to use footwork to get around the Flicker Jabs and the two boxers enter a high level exchange, which lasts until the end of the first round without landing a clean hit. As they walk to their corners, Takamura is irritated that he couldn't get to where he needed to be, and Bison claims that Takamura is a thief.
