Summary
After getting off the phone with Miyata's father, Kamogawa expresses his excitement to Yagi about the inevitable match between Ippo and Miyata. Miyata, as he overheard his father's conversation, thanks him for accepting Kamogawa's request. Ippo goes to the Kawai Hospital to see Itagaki. Ippo congratulates and expresses how envy he is about Itagaki fighting his rival in the tournament. When Ippo claims that Itagaki and Imai seemed like friends since Imai held Itagaki to prevent him from falling at the end, Itagaki tells Ippo to take that back. Imai comes in the room and gives Itagaki tapes of the Western Rookie King, Hoshi's matches. Itagaki remembers their promise they made before the match and orders Imai to kneel down and apologise, which he was about to do until Nanako arrives, making him leave as Imai didn't want her to see him do that. Before leaving Imai says that he will postpone their promise until the next time they meet in the ring. Itagaki promises that he will win by knockout.
