Details[]
- Title Page Character(s): Ippo Makunouchi, Takuma Saeki
Summary[]
Despite having the advantage in position, Ippo is unable to land a single clean hit on Saeki, and the bell rings with Ippo's jab being dodged. Both fighters discuss strategies with their trainers while Date and Takamura analyse the match. Date implies he thinks Saeki will win, then he says that he will learn from Ippo how to deal with the speed. The next round starts and Ippo repeats his strategy by throwing punches that miss, but slowly push Saeki to the corner. Once in the corner, Ippo throws left jabs to force Saeki to the right so he can land a body blow on him. Saeki however, utilises the ropes and dodges, but instead of retreating like he previously did, he attacks. Using Flicker Jabs, Saeki corners Ippo and begins a one sided beating. Charging forward as he covers his face, Ippo finally escapes, but he now has a swollen eye. Hiding in Ippo's blind spot, Saeki delivers a straight and the bell rings saving Ippo, who barely makes it to his corner.
