Summary

Still struggling to confess his feelings to Kumi, Ippo ends up asking her to come see his match against Sanada. Kumi tells him that the nurses are planning to cheer for Sanada, and Ippo says it can not be helped if she does so too. Upset about the fact that Ippo so calmly accepts her cheering for the opponent, Kumi asks if her support matters so little to him. He answers that she should cheer for whoever she wants, to which she replies she will, before angrily leaving and bringing the date to an end. Ippo later reunites with his team mates, but is still in shock at the way the night ended. Takamura rewinds the recorder, and misunderstanding what they hear, they end up believing Kumi broke up with him at the end of the date. Ippo does not bother in saying anything, and leaves followed by Aoki and Kimura. Takamura then keeps listening, and mistakenly thinking they had sex, prepares to masturbate, only to realise what really happened. The next day at the gym, Ippo is briefly teased about the events of the previous night by Aoki and Kimura, before Takamura appears and hits them both. The former champion states that they should not make fun of him and since he lost his girl, they should make an effort to help him keep his belt.
