Summary

Takamura attacks Eagle, but Eagle counters. Kamogawa realises that Eagle doesn't damage him when he could, and knows that Takamura realises this as well, which will naturally make him angry. Takamura angrily throws a wide right that Eagle easily dodges. Yagi knows that wide swings won't hit him, which Kamogawa knows that this is what Eagle was aiming for. After getting hit by another light punch, Takamura snaps and throws another big right. Eagle counters with a punch strong enough to make Takamura's legs buckle. Takamura unknowingly backs himself up to a corner again. Eagle throws a barrage of punches at Takamura's guard at the corner. Takamura thinks Eagle is clever, as he throws a light punch despite the chance of danger, and then throws a powerful punch Eagle saw him throw a big swing, as well as being able to cut his escape route. Takamura believes he has got the theory, but it is still a pain. Eagle hits Takamura's face through an opening in his guard with a left jab.
