Details
- Techniques Introduced: Chopping Right
- Title Page Character(s): Ippo Makunouchi
Summary
While the members of the Kamogawa gym watch the video, Kamogawa points out that Mashiba's weakness, is his Hitman Style which leaves too many openings. As they theorise that by getting closer, Ippo will have a chance, Takamura points out Mashiba's reach advantage. Realising that he can not face the Flicker Jab from so far away, he begins to lose hope, but is stopped by Kamogawa who reminds him that it is a matter of strength and if he works on his dash, he can get in. Motivated by this, Ippo begins his dash training. Meanwhile at the Tōhō gym, Mashiba is training as Fujii watches and notes that his Flicker Jab, is an anti-Makunouchi one.
Trivia
- Despite being shown before as Mashiba's finisher, the Chopping Right is first named in this chapter.
