That's true. I don't really see why Morikawa would bring him back, though.

Re: Hajime no Ippo

just go to ignition-one.com. They have direct downloads, me thinks

I didn't even know that the site was back up...

Re: The Third Man... *SPOILERS*

Well he's a worthy opponent for Ippo... I think that that his power rivaled Ippo's and he only lost two fights prior to fighting Miyata... and those were to WBC rankers and were by decision and not KO.

Yeah, that's true too. But I wouldn't want another Ippo vs. Jimmy, where they both have equal power until Ippo uses the Dempsey Smash, and then that ends it right there--after all, both of them specialize in throwing powerful hooks.

Your favourite Fight

sorry guys and girls but im a little too lazy to make a poll but which fight is your all time favourite?
My personal fav is without a doubt The battle of hawk.. that fight was just mindblowing.
and Ippo vs Sendo nr 2 was friggin awesome.
And i dont remember who the guys name was but the fight where Ippo refused to use the dempsey roll
against his opponent and just owned the guy with pure boxing was genious.
so thats my top three, whats your favs?

Re: Your favourite Fight

Great topics, Boff

Here's my list, in random order:
Ippo vs Mashiba: That's one scary...in-law . He looks like a psychopath,

Spoiler: i dont wanna spoil new readers

but i think he approves Ippo dating his sister (at least that's how i see it up to v 68).

Ippo vs Sendou (1st fight): Sendou is Ippo with less luck and tenacity. Personally, i think his awareness of his talent made him unconsciously not working as hard as Ippo.

Ippo vs Date (title fight): corkscrew blow ftw!!!

Re: The Third Man... *SPOILERS*

well u have a point gigantor

but he lost to miyata and lose some ranks but he is still high in rank i guess and the Property for him to face ippo is high

Re: The Third Man... *SPOILERS*

cross JOLT was that the one where he throws his whole body into the punch and bets it all on that one pounch?

Re: Your favourite Fight

in terms of the most entertaining ones would be the ones iwth Aoki and the one where Takamura wouldn't stop doing the uppercut. I couldn't stop laughing for a good 15 minutes after those.

Somehow, I doubt that, since he was beaten by someone who'd never even fought in an OPBF title match before--AND it was the first KO loss he'd ever suffered. So I doubt that he has nearly as much clout on the world stage as he did when he was OPBF champ.

That's why I don't think Ippo should fight Arnie--because that's basically the same thing that happened to Jimmy before he fought Ippo.

cross JOLT was that the one where he throws his whole body into the punch and bets it all on that one pounch?

Yeah, that's the Jolt. The "Cross JOLT!" is just a name I made up for when he throws the Jolt as a cross counter.

Re: Your favourite Fight

The Battle of Hawk (gotta love engrish) is easily the match of the series. Nuff said.

 

[BlitzRonin]

Re: Your favourite Fight

Takamura VS Hawk
Ippo Vs Sendo II
Ippo Vs Sawamura
Mashiba VS Sawamura

It's tough for me to pick between these four as IMO, they are the top tier fights for the manga...

In each one the fighters were evenly matched and they were just all out fights.

Re: Your favourite Fight

ATM I've just seen the anime and searched for the Edited Mangas. Thanks to BlitzRonin's signature I found it ^^v.

My favourite fights were

Ippo vs. Sendo I
Ippo vs. Sendo II
Ippo vs. Mashiba

Re: The Third Man... *SPOILERS*

I love how lots of people have their own version of the JOLT!

Since it's just a full body weight punch nearly anyone can do it... but Miyata using it as a counter is just awesome.

Ippo's Dempsey Hooks and whatnot are JOLT's since those are full body weight.. and the hook that Date was going to hit Martinez with to finish him off could be considered a JOLT!

mashiba vs sawamura the battle of psyco,s and the battle of the hawk's

That's true--but I like Miyata's version the best, since it's the most risky and has the biggest payoff when it works. No one else's potential JOLTs have been able to knock out people in one hit, after all.
