Sinking His Teeth In is Round 1499 of Jōji Morikawa's Hajime no Ippo manga series.
Details
- Title Page Character(s): Takeshi Sendō, Ricardo Martínez
Summary
Facing off at the centre of the ring, Ricardo lands a left jab on Sendō's face. Seemingly unfazed, Sendō retaliates with a right that hits Ricardo's high two-handed block. Sendō blocks Ricardo's next left jab with his right fist while launching an attack with his left, forcing Ricardo to put his block up. Sendō continues hammering Ricardo's block with powerful left and right combinations. While Ricardo sees blocking the punches as a valid option, his sweat is telling him that it is dangerous, believing that Sendō's unprecedented power means that the punches will crush him even through his guard. Ricardo thinks that Sendō's ferocity is only increasing as time passes and that he is a true carnivore, surprised to find out that primates like Wally and carnivores are this different. After dodging some of Sendō's punches, Ricardo lands a left jab on his face and steps back to dodge another punch.
Trivia
- In the visualisation of Ricardo shooting a rifle, the whole cartridge was erroneously drawn attached to the bullet. After finding out about the error in the comment section on Magapoke, Morikawa posted on X/Twitter the error will be fixed in the volume release and stated that the next chapter has the same error as well.
