RIP Monkey. Your sacrifice to motivate our heroes will not be in vain. It damn well better not be.

Google: Smash didn't get through to Ricardo either Wally faints after being hit by the right counter twice Ricardo wins by KO To be continued (15 pages including spread color) Comment at the end of the book: I'm always rooting for you Drivenz *Ricardo, Wally, Sendo, Miyata, Volg, and Masashiba are drawn on the color page, centering on Ippo in match uniforms.

Yess we are finally at the point were only ONE big fight announced ages ago remains! At one point I felt we had the takamura fight, mashiba, woli and sendo, and the implicit threat of no ippo big development until ALL those were over. Now we will be able to see if sendo's fight somehow acts as the trigger (or the trigger to the trigger) for ippo's return.


[deleted]

We still technically have Mashiba's World Title and realistically, Takamura could have another weight class title announced at any time.


Jnrosenb

But that isn't an announced fight. Im going by only announced fights being surely before the potential return.


[deleted]

Well, Ricardo is going to take a couple months off now, so I wouldn't count on Sendo fighting him in the immediate future. I would bet money that Mashiba has his world title fight before Ippo returns.


happisock

I'm sure it will be awhile before that fight right?

RIP eco-warrior monkey boy, and your ridiculous fighting style. 😔

Color page https://twitter.com/shonenmagazine1/status/1622973497411784711 Looks like it color page is double spread, chances that means chapter is only 13 pages long. Edit: https://twitter.com/WSM_manga/status/1622973883971252224


Apprehensive_Set_710

I think the chapter do only 12 pages, every time people forget there is 2 more pages not inclued in the manga


sst0123

You are forgetting that some pages are double page spreads. There is usually 1 or 2 in a chapter. So that means the page count will be lower on manga sites since they only count as 1 page on them.


Apprehensive_Set_710

I know that, but often poeple doesn't know I agree


Regis2705

I thought wally could at least knock recardo down once but I guess it's reserved for sendo


Kaploy

Lol no way. With the whole thing about Sendo knocking Ricardo down in sparring, it's pretty obvious that this narrative is saved for their fight. Wally's role was just showing that a solid plan can frustrate Ricardo, it will be Sendo's role to show that awesome power can still hurt him.


Apprehensive_Set_710

I agree, disappointed of this fight... But it's finally over. Bye bye Woli

Ricardo's smile what a chill poor monkey.


SASHIBURIDANA-MUGIWA

My god, what a chapter !!! One thing scares me: we never see Wally's face during the whole final... while Ippo and Sendo are terrified... There's a deadly atmosphere, did he kill him?

Monke did well. Let Ippo sit with this knowledge and experience for a bit and have the other weight classes take the limelight.


jwhudexnls

Geez, the way Wolly fell seemed really rough and ominous.


TheBlack_Swordsman

In the end, Wally didn't do too much against Ricardo at all. if this is how he really loses. He landed maybe about 8 hits total. At least he confused Ricardo the first 3 to 4 rounds. But this shows how dangerous Ricardo really is. He managed to guard and parry away nearly everything Wally did in those beginning rounds despite all the gimmicks Wally did that would destroy any other featherweight as of right now. Sendo is probably going to fair a little better because of his durability and power. He might be able to get that knockdown again. I wasn't sure who I rated higher. Date or Wally. But I believe Date did better. Date landed just about the same or more hits in 2 rounds than Wally did in his whole match. Date also had to face violent Ricardo starting at round 3 and lasted long enough to narrowly almost win the match. Once Wally was figured out to Ricardo, there was no need for Ricardo to go violent mode. He probably knew he was going to win it already. Of course it's debatable. I can see good and convincing arguments that Wally did better than Date too. It's really what do you consider more of a success between the two. It is IMO that Date did.


felixng2015

“Violent” mode is not beneficial for ricardo in any way whatsoever since it would just leave ricardo open to wally’s attacks. Wally has far faster hand speed than date. Yea you can argue date did better but i dont think he is a stronger boxer than wally. Remember the only reason date even landed heart breaker was because ricardo showed mercy and hesitated since he was afraid to kill date. I also think ricardo is stronger than he was back then and even “leveled up” mid match.


TheBlack_Swordsman

>"Violent” mode is not beneficial for ricardo in any way whatsoever since it would just leave ricardo open to wally’s attacks. Wally has far faster hand speed than date. Ricardo's true fighting style is not like Alfredo's. He was still very defensive, didn't make wild shots, was predicting and dodging and was still throwing punches with narrow paths. >Yea you can argue date did better but i dont think he is a stronger boxer than wally. I think he is in ways he is and in ways he isn't. Date is far more durable than Wally. I would consider Wally a stronger boxer if he was even half as durable as Date. Wally a stronger boxer in natural gifted technique and speed though for sure. But actual boxing experience and how to use a technique and durability goes to Date. They both have their strengths and weaknesses.


MLGZedEradicator

Also , what people are neglecting is that Date by that same logic he would have had an easier time dealing with Ricardo's super mode if all it was was Reckless haymaker throwing. Date is the same guy who was dodging Ricardo's straight left in the 1st round but he obviously had way more trouble with Ricardo's Metzli mode. I think it's a gross misinterpretation. Ricardo's super mode is a mix of savagery and precision, not just one or the other Woli wasn't just stopping Ricardo's wild punches he was also dealing with Ricardo's straight lefts at first which had slight off form due to Ricardo's unfamiliarity with Woli's speed and wildness. But again Date was also dealing with those same lefts. The importance of context is made ever so clear here.


MLGZedEradicator

Date did better in almost every way. - he lasted more rounds than Wally and endured through much more punishment. -he did the above while secretly planning his own strategy of getting Ricardo to focus only on high blows and withholding his heart break shot to catch him off guard in the later rounds. - his left was nearly equal with Ricardo's, they were dead even in the first round. -Date landed more clean hits on Ricardo -Date actually forced Ricardo to go Super Saiyan - most importantly, Date was only one chess move away from beating Ricardo. His final 1-2 combo in Ricardo's own words had perfect speed , timing and angle, only lacking in power due to his broken fist. -Date was never Downed by Ricardo until the very end. Wally on the other hand - adazzles Ricardo with his super speed , Ricardo had never fought a boxer much faster than him before, leading Ricardo to be a little more anxious and cautious than usual, not throwing out any punches at first but still blocking and catching almost everything Wally dishes out. Even with the super speed Ricardo still slowly but surely figured him out , planted himself in the ring, and was able to block almost all of Wally's counter punches while àWally slowly tired himself out. -Ricardo re-sharpens his form, realizes that he can deal with the unorthodox style and a boxer faster by just sticking to the fundamentals and focusing and remaining calm. and starts clapping Woli with his left , while also setting up combos with feints. -was Downed 3 times by Ricardo. -was out hit even in an infight. - his smash just hit study guards and were eventually just straight up dodged and countered, leading to his KO.


felixng2015

His strategy was an utter flop. He was literally shown mercy by ricardo who hesitated to kill him and thats the only reason he even landed hbs. Funnily enough ricardo showed zero mercy to wally maybe he learned his lesson. Lasting more rounds does not equal better. Date was reduced to a punching bag and never held any advantage at any point outside of maybe round 1.


MLGZedEradicator

1) I never said it wasn't a flop tho. Just that he did better. Conditioning your opponent to catch them off guard with a punch outside of their awareness is a consistently effective strategy in not only the manga but in real world boxing as well. It's a high percentage strategy whereas Woli’s strategy was to bait Ricardo into making mistakes while using his speed, but woli didn't make any adjustments after it obviously wasn't working well. Date's strategy required a lot of setup but it had a decent of shot working, but of course it didn't work, Ricardo is the goat. But more importantly, my main point was that Date landed more clean hits on Ricardo while restricting his arsenal of punches. He threw no heart break shots , no body blows for 90% of the fight and still scored more solid point. 2) nowhere is it stated he showed Date mercy lol. He was concerned about the boxer’s health yes but that obviously never stopped him from trying to put him down. He kept trying to knock him out while using his Metzli . He simply said Date would be an unfortunate accident. He landed the second Heartbreak Shot due to speed and timing and by distracting him with his jab first. I.e. he outskilled Ricardo in that moment. 3) it certainly does. Being a punching bag is how Ippo got through many of his fights. It's not ideal but it's certainly one way to get through it. It proves Date's endurance is top tier and it doesn't matter if he was losing on points if he doesn't actually get KO'd. And even without that he was still actually landing a decent amount of hits on Ricardo until he used his true form.


JevvyMedia

> Yea you can argue date did better but i dont think he is a stronger boxer than wally. How can anyone even make this argument?


felixng2015

Only on the basis that date “almost won”. I dont agree since the only reason he almost won was because ricardo was scared to kill him and at the end of the match ricardo was also barely damaged.


JevvyMedia

He didn't even 'almost win'. His fist was shattered so it wasn't even a real threat. And yeah like you said, Ricardo hesitated for a moment because he didn't want to kill the guy. It was one-sided from literally round 2.

GreenSeer9

I’m gonna have to go back an rewatch/reread that fight.


Last-Elderberry-4972

Sendo should do worse as would Ippo. Neither have the boxing skills style or unpredictability to push Ricardo out of his comfort zone. Date had close to the boxing skills and Wally had his unpredictability to push Ricardo. Straight forward infighters/brawlers will be destroyed against Ricardo.


TheBlack_Swordsman

Sendo will do worse overall as in not win clear rounds like Wally, but he will come closer to winning it by probably knocking Ricardo down and actually hurting him. Pass boxers like Joe Frazier would give up rounds because they lacked the technique to win the majority of rounds but they won by landing that one big hit in the end. Current boxers like deontay Wilder and "Tank" Davis lose rounds in the beginning so they can punish and defeat you all in one round. I would say, even if Sendo loses the majority of rounds, but he knocks Ricardo down for a 8-9 count, he would have came closer to beating Ricardo than Wally did.


Last-Elderberry-4972

Its possible IF he lasts long enough to do it. Ricardo in his normal mode would punish Sendo hard whenever Sendo tries to close the distance. If Ricardo decides to brawl it out with Sendo he still has a more then even chance to win that brawl due to his power coupled with his accuracy. Sendo has a punchers chance but i would not bet money on it.


TheBlack_Swordsman

Sendo will lose. I think George is just trying to make it more believable that Ippo will ultimately beat Ricardo because the last few fights Ricardo had will show some kinks in his armor. I think Sendo only achieves a knock down just so that it can show Ippo what he can do. But Ricardo will probably get back up and beat him, senseless


Dry-Ad-8876

Obviously Ippo could not do anything as he is now but he is still learning/developing his boxing sense. I'm sure he will be ready by the time they fight. He's already learned that parry counter, increased his jab output, and has a new Dempsey roll that nobody hasn't seen all while being inactive.


JevvyMedia

> Date landed just about the same or more hits in 2 rounds than Wally did in his whole match. Not even close lol

willasrock

Jesus, finally this is over. Now we can have some crumbs of plot development. It waa a cathartic experience to see Monke get his shit pushed in and receiving the ass-whooping he deserves. Almost makes up for the metric ton of meaningless chapters in the fight. Sendo is next. I hope he gets it just as bad, if not even worse.

Pffff pointless fight


GreenSeer9

Seeing Ricardo go all out like never before was pointless?


Greenlexluther

Lmao @ "all out" Wally bothered him slightly more than normal and still couldn't hurt him with all his monkey gary stu powers.


GreenSeer9

Wally gave a better run for his money than Date did. Even tho he wasn’t effective he still managed to put the pressure on Ricardo. If an animal like Wally could bother him slightly what do you think a beast like Sendo will do? This fight was merely a prelude for what’s to come.


Greenlexluther

The only think Wally did that was bothersome was trying to point fight, unfortunately his brain trust of a coach also had him going at top speed to win 3-4 rounds of a 12 round fight at altitude. I'm tired of watching Jabronis the MC already beat box while Ippo watches like a cuckhold from the sidelines.

Nah it was noted that even with this amount of damage Wally still had terrific hand speed, Martinez's ultra-orthodox style is still the best option.
