Summary
Eagle gets up at the count of seven. Takamura, seeing Eagle's eyes, is reminded of how his eyes always bothered him when he saw videos of Eagle, as he has seen those eyes before. Eagle thinks of how even though he has won the Olympics and has stood at the top of the world, he has always felt like he is lacking something. He believes that he has never had a true rival and hasn't seen the full extent of his own strength. He remembers Hagler and Leonard being lucky enough to have rivals to test their strength on, wanting to know how strong he is as well. When he saw Hawk, he believed that he could do that, but then a stronger man in Takamura appeared. Eagle and Takamura meet in the centre of the ring, where Takamura knocks Eagle back with a punch to his guard. With Eagle staying in the middle range, Takamura notices how Eagle's eyes still have a light in them that signalises that he won't give in, which Takamura finds annoying fighting people with such eyes. Eagle throws out multiple one-twos that Takamura dodges. Takamura notes how Eagle is like a copy of an annoying fighter he knows, as Eagle is able to use something in a fight just like one practised and having annoying eyes that won't give in. Takamura feels like Eagle is just like Ippo. Takamura and Eagle has a dual exchange, which Takamura wins, however, he gets a cut above his left eye, causing bleeding.
