Summary

Rosario's attempt to hit Mashiba while he throws a one-two is unsuccessful as Rosario is hit by a right body blow. Mashiba and Rosario continues their close-ranged exchange. Sendō wonders if Mashiba knew that Rosario was aiming for a counter, and Miyata believes he did. Sawamura and Ippo notes how in this situation where Mashiba is being forced to respond in a high-pace exchange of blows, it should instead be seen as a chance. Rosario is annoyed that he is just barely unable to reach Mashiba with his fists. Rosario remembers how his life was full of constant betrayal, however, his fists were the only thing that wouldn't betray him, and they helped him get to the top. Rosario tries to hit Mashiba in the middle of his one-two again, however, Rosario is hit by a right body blow again. Rosario thinks that he was too slow, so he tries once more, trying to make his throw smaller and faster while Mashiba throws the right straight of his one-two.
