Guys, keep reading and reminiscing about the glory days manga. It's good for thread morale. We need it. The current fight couldn't be worse.

Maybe if he takes enough brain damage Ippo will finally stop being a cowardly dipshit and actually do something about his relationship with Kumi. Or Miyata. Either one works, really. However, the only people who have had actual relationships in the entire manga were Aoki and Gen. That's just sad.

How long have Ippo and Kumi been "dating" by this point, in the Ippo-verse? Two or three years?

Just under four years if you start from the date at the zoo (9/1993) before the Sendo rematch. From that to the the Gendo fight 2/1997 then a few more months to this fight.

Ippo has never kissed a girl, made a friend unrelated to boxing, worked anywhere other than the family business, or been in a fight. He might not have ever even had a drink. It is no wonder he is so dedicated to boxing; he never had anything else and is unwilling to leave his comfort zone to try new things.

Even though that also describes his current situation pretty well, at least he is trying to fight back now. I think what I mean is, gently caress Woli.

Can't imagine just breezing through the Gedo fight and RBJ fight. They might almost be likable fights if you could just mindlessly click through 'em, and hope for better things to come.

End of Randy Boy fight spoilers They gave Miyata Ippo's level of endurance and had him pull out some supersonic punch out of nowhere. It didn't make any sense.

Ugh. Why don't those uploaders use something convenient like Rapidshare or Megaupload  Downloading 14MB at 35k/sec is agonizing. I wanna know what happens  879 spoilers: gently caress Morikawa. Ippo goes in to a tight peekaboo stance, biting his thumbs like he did waaaay in the beginning. Woli springs around the ring all god-mode-like. loving ridiculous as usual. Woli easily dodges Ippo's blows, until Miguel screams some order then "GO!" Following that, Woli plants his feet and almost seems to welcome an infight. It seems like he takes up a Hitman style and shoots out flickers kind of like Mashiba, per what happened earlier. If I had to guess, maybe Miguel is thinking that Ippo is nearing the end and it is time to finish it. That or Miguel, for some reason, thinks it is safe for Woli to practice a duel with Ippo's wreckingball fists. Ippo closes in, takes a hook to the face, tries a straight, which, of course, is dodged. Ippo tries a left straight again and is met with a pretty brutal cross-counter. Immediately after, Ippo tightens his abdominal muscles, shrugs off the pain, and lunges inward just in time for Woli to shoot out a follow-up blow. Ippo takes the hit in the face from an uncomfortable angle (was probably too shallow to do much damage), and as the chapter ends, Ippo's left arm is seen swinging a hook toward Woli's body. Basically, we'll have to wait two weeks before finding out if Coach's retarded strategy of exchanging hits will work. Woli seems completely unaware of the body-blow coming toward him, but it wouldn't surprise me if he just somehow materialized in to air and the punch did no damage at this point. The shark has been jumped, big time. About 200 chapters and counting

Whelp, from what I've read of others, here's the plan: He went in to Mashiba's style, which might very well be a favorite. Second time he has shown the same style. Like Mashiba, it has the same weaknesses. UNLIKE Mashiba, though, he probably won't cheat to deal with the repercussions. His torso is wide open, so Ippo is aiming to break a few ribs with his hook. If he could do that, Woli's stamina and mobility would drop like a rock. After that, it's a matter of Ippo stripping the bones. That is, if this were logical. Which it isn't. Mori needs to pull out a Takamura-Hawk esque bout to redeem itself at this point. I'm still reading in hopes of such a thing

It was also about 300 chapters ago that Ippo stopped developing as a boxer. Now we don't even get vague references to the completed dempsey roll.

The manga needs another training arc. Ippo for the longest time has just gone "whelp, time to rest. Another fight? Okay." In the past, he'd train and noticeably improve core muscles or improve himself as a boxer via new Sunday punches. I enjoyed the training arcs, personally Need more of those.
