Re: HnI 763 Discussions Thread

thats one of the reasons that he was called ippo's worst opponent

Re: HnI 763 Discussions Thread

A wide stance is troublesome for Ippo. He charges in while guarding his head and looking at his opponents feet to determine when to hit him so if his opponent faces him side ways it's gonna be hard to get a clear hit and Gedo will be out of Ippo's range even if he doesn't look like it.

I disagree, that style of fighting is more dangerous for outboxers who are trained to keep their distance and attack when the right time comes. Ippo has the power to take the match into a super close fight where it should nullify the technique when you aim for his body. The only worrisome thing left is gedo's footwork. But considering ippo's been training for miyata, it shouldn't pose too much a problem.

but Gedo's style is still a mystery to us, whether he punches or sways we don't have a slightest clue

I believe Ippo has shown that he can deal with out boxers' footwork when he cornered the last one by just taking small steps. Then Gedo's stance is still a problem since Ippo looks at his opponents feet when he charges in. the reason he does so is because he gaurds his face from the jabs his opponent throws to stop him from gettign too close
After all it's just a speculation it may be true and it may be not. I did a search on google to find something that would hint on Gedo's style but no luck. So the stance is the only thing we have so far.
I am really looking forward this fight and I think it ain't ginna be easy for Ippo at all

i just hope that ippo doesn't screw this one. he is jinxed with bad spars

Re: HnI 763 Discussions Thread

I don't expect a lot from the spar ith Mashiba and I doubt there will be any thing significantly different about Mashiba and his style.

Re: HnI 763 Discussions Thread

I think something unexpected will come from the mashiba spar. This is just speculation, but I think the reason mashiba put on the head gear is so that he can come up with tactics for a better infight to surprise his opponent. It's more than just respect or fear.

Either way, since it's just a spar and it's a 2nd match... I'm putting my money on mashiba winning. It'll be an awesome fight, but ippo's always in need of a reality check. And of course he might figure something out in the spar, but I'll put more money on ippo beating gedo. And for the bonus round, after he beats gedo, gedo might either quit or try to become a righteous boxer through ippo's "life saving punches". I'd say odds are

19% gedo quits boxing
79% gedo changes his ways after the fight
2% gedo ends up in a coma or dies

mashiba wins this spar ..
99% gedo gets banned from boxing

99.999% that gedo will get pulverized, and talks about when did he love boxing and goes straight after the match

PS: I'll ask one of the mod of Hajime no Ippo to edit this first post for summary of the chapter.

WOW! what can a guy say to that amazing chapter? a spar with ippo is usually nothing special but this is more thrilling than an actual match. just the fact that Mashiba has acknowledged Ippo's strength and goes full throttle is amazing. same with Ippo.
AND THE EVOLVED DEMPSEY! oh my god people! its to cool to sum up in a few words.
and i like the new thing mori is using for "almost hits" in this spar, where it looks like their clothes shatter. very nice touch Mori, very nice indeed!

Re: HnI 764 Discussions Thread

whoa, great chapter, no need for trans
who would've thought that these two were this equally matched

Re: HnI 764 Discussions Thread

A great chapter. Mashiba doing an uppercut was very unexpected.

Can't wait to see how this spar evolves.

 

[Zaloof]

Re: HnI 764 Discussions Thread

morikawa art has evolved. those were wicked special effects

 

[Sllik]

Re: HnI 764 Discussions Thread

Has Ippo come out of any spar on top before?

I think the weight and reach advantage will prove too much for Ippo.

 

[Zaloof]

Re: HnI 764 Discussions Thread

ippo always sparred with bigger guys at higher level weights, so it wont have that much of trouble

 

[ilovespamusubi]

Re: HnI 764 Discussions Thread

still i think the weight makes a big difference. ippo is the loser by knockout

 

[Zaloof]

Re: HnI 764 Discussions Thread

you forget that ippo spars everyday with kimura and aoki. the only trouble ippo is facing is the reach
