I love that each time one of Miguel's boxers starts getting the poo poo kicked out of them he immediately opines about how the opponent is the absolute peak of the ideal ultimate boxer.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.

Predictions: Woli didn't "mitigate his damage with a neck-spin," Ricardo literally broke his neck.

The match might not end with him literally dead, but he's going to be dead to boxing after this.

It totally could though he's soaking up damage

The panel where they hit each other with the mutual hooks is great.

Bullshit. With enough spirit and training, you can holding your bones in place with your neck muscles.

I always figured Sendo would get the Ashita no Joe death, but I'll be way happier if Wally gets it instead

now the question is if it's going to be dramatic or if he's just going to eat a hook counter on page 5 and be in a heap in the next panel

there are so many death flags i feel like we're being set up for a fake out.

if this fight is meant to spark ippo back to boxing i don't think a death would be the right trigger.

I did not, but I did check out Korakuen Hall when I went in December, which was neat. I was already at the Tokyo Dome because I went to a spa in the shopping mall that's there.

Ippo contracts Kuru and becomes violently unhinged in a way that helps relaunch his career.

:yeah: He's obviously going to lose, but it's not like we've seen him take any major injuries throughout the fight. Nothing like Sendo with busted ribs or Date with a shattered jaw. No reason to believe his life is in danger.
