Ippo realized his reliance on dempsey roll after he retired. He even admits that he forgot to set the pace with jabs

These older fights really paints the shows you how much Ippo changed after he learned the Dempsey Roll. Even in the newer ones you seem him super emotionally attatched to the technique. I really want a new season, because that detail is really explored further down in the story.

its crazy, these earlier fights really had Ippo thinking, the introduction of the Dempsey roll almost took the thinking away because it allowed Ippo to be defensive and offensive much faster , combining feints, intimidation and using blind spots. Its also crazy how his power made up for a lot of his weaknesses as a boxer. There was been enough time in the manga to do at least 2 more seasons I need this anime back

Fun fact : In the manga Ippo's fixation to land the new version of Dempsey Roll cause him a fight

The fact that Date countered using his Heartbreak Shot to beat Ippo how Okita almost did countering with the Corkscrew punch sends goosebumps up my spine. Ippo would’ve lost if Okita’s knees didn’t give out from the accumulated damage.

In manga Ippo realises that. He analyzed his previous fights and realized that he became to much relay nt on Dempsey Roll. And now he developed into real monster. Please, read the manga. You will enjoy it.

I am so blessed to wake up at 1am to catch the newest release of Makunouchi monday, ty for another release!!!!

Ippos original style was hit them before they hit you but after the Dempsey Roll the style changed to get hit and get close to unleash the Dempsey Roll that's why later on he became one dimensional

Now that you are running out of fights from the anime would you consider doing makunochi techniques Mondays? Videos where you select one technique from the show e.g the gazelle punch then use your background to focus on it. Like how youd do it in real life, drills to practice it, and variations of it?

Oh man!!! That painting is awesome and this fight an emotional rolling coaster as always but we know how good Ippo is. Glad you’re well set up in your new digs, Max

I hope you consider reading Ippo's 6th title defense in the manga, his next match after the Sawamura fight. I think it could become your favorite match in the series.

Kinda sad that we are running out of ippo fights... Really liked makunouchi mondays

Thanks for the amazing reaction

4:18 the sound effect is amazing

Good luck on the 24th bro, love your content 💯

Idk if ya seen it yet but ippo does an arm wrestling match against Kimura, Aoki, and takamura and ippo was shown to have a the minimum around the same amount of strength as takamura. So I'm more surprised ippo hasn't killed anyone

had to get here quick, always good to see your vids man!

For your next fight, I’d recommend the final fight of Killer Bean Forever. It’s a surprisingly well done fist fight.

refreshed yt just to see this come on, aw yiss as always thank you for these

Congrats on the new office!

so sad I missed Makunouchi Ippo / Little Mac Monday

Nice switch dude!

Everyone from Date's gym has that death glare.

Thats some sick wall art, im jelly

Ngl, most of the displates I've seen "advertised" give me a headache, but that one is sick! Sorry, I'll watch the juicy video now.

that art piece 🔥🔥🔥🔥

You should react to some of the training scenes in Ippo I would love to see your opinions on how thse fighters got ready for these fights

Just to let you know, there are some audio problems near the end of the video where the sound gets very muffled and cuts out entirely now and again. Nothing too bad though.

Would you ever react to the manga's matches as there are some bangers in it that never got animated? For example the match where Ippo shows the true power of his hits against a dude who dropped weight classes to fight him.

Hello there just ippo is one of my favorite characters and i think you should watch kenichi: strongest disciple wich relates and explain martial arts movements and trainning besides is extremely funny

Since you are running out of IPPO fights, maybe I could advise the Kenichi anime. I know you will love his teachers aswell especially the muay thai "God of Death" There is this one quote in it when they explain why other martial arts avoid using knee's and elbows in combat and it's amazingly told :D

Don't worry, Ippo gets less one dimensional with his boxing in the manga!

Yooooooo. My boy

Nice shirt man

I think Ippo broke his hand from Mashiba

Good fight

Yo black belt martial artist! Could you do reaction videos of New Challenger and Rising?

wooooo

🔥

9:10 Yeah, imo, Ippo never had any talent as a boxer, he's a 1 dimensional character and it showed in his boxing style, he really has no likes or dislikes, or hobbies, that was the trait that made him impress the ppl around him, since he's like that, he's able to focus 100% on anything he does, but that's the thing, he only knows to do that, going face first and bang his head on the wall over and over until he gets through. Which is exactly why he burned his career so quickly, this also makes me think Kamogawa is a bad coach (or maybe his age has taken a toll), since he wasn't able to see ahead and realize Ippo was in a self destruct path with his style of go forward never backing down. After reading the manga, I really don't know why it's called Hajime no Ippo, if you ask me, the real main character is Takamura, not only was he the first in the gym, he's the only character that has a real plot, like a set goal, everyone else is just doing boxing because they like it. But Takamura wants to gift Kamogawa the six belts, in a gym that hasn't even had one (I think), before he dies, to thank him for giving his life a purpose (basically the're Rocky and Mikey from the movie). He also had high hopes for Ippo, he wanted to leave a successor of sorts, since he's on the older side, so Kamogawa could rest easy the gym was gonna do fine with the next gen, you can tell he was the most frustrated with Ippo's retirement.

It doesn’t matter if someone is imitating date or ippo it doesn’t mean your them. I think ippo’s opponent lost is because I feel like he want to be like date, boxing and all meaning he doesn’t have his own style.

if okita had developed his own style of boxing he would have a better time with ippo but sadly he retired But okitas theme song in game boy advance ippo game is epic

Is a corkscrew blow even real?

Machina uuchi. Where is your wife?
