Details

Summary

At the Kamogawa gym, the Class A Tournament brackets have been announced. Aoki and Kimura have mixed feelings about their first opponent since they are fighting the same person who made them lose the tournament last time, with Aoki facing Itō Jackal, and Kimura facing Takeshi Ryūzaki. Itagaki is excited to face Karasawa, and possibly Saeki in the finals if he wins. Itagaki notes that if he wins against two boxers who have had title matches, his reputation will go through the roof. Aoki and Kimura become fired up when Shinoda mentions that this is their chance to get revenge and show that they have changed. After Kimura spars with Itagaki, Aoki spars with Ippo. Afterwards, Ippo, Itagaki, and Kimura take a shower while Aoki is resting due to not feeling good. The three believe that if the gym's boxers win the Class A Tournament, the gym will become more popular too, wanting to pay the gym back for taking care of them. Walking away from the gym, Ippo tells Aoki, Kimura, and Itagaki how he still can't do anything about his match with Wally since Kamogawa isn't at the gym, but plans on remembering Kamogawa's quote before he left. Ippo, Itagaki, Aoki, and Kimura work at their jobs while remembering how Kamogawa told them to always remember that they are a boxer 24 hours a day.
