Thus begins one of the best fights of the series. Ippo vs. Sendō II for the JBC Featherweight Championship is a beautiful way to end the first season on a high note.

Really great episode, a great fight to end the first season :o It looks like Ippo is very scared against Sendo, I don't really blame him though...Sendo is a terrific boxer.

I'm scared, I'm such a little chicken compared to the tiger that Sendou-san(sama) is herp derp zzzz.

Every fight is Ippo praising his opponents and saying how amazing they are.

Part of me is mad that Ippo is getting scared in episode 72 but at the same time Sendo is a monster so I can understand.

Can't believe that the series gonna end and we still haven't seen Miyata vs Ippo.
Thought they're gonna make it the last fight but i guess i was wrong.

Damn, this is becoming just an all out slugfest. Two dudes just beating the ever loving shit out of eachother.

Since the Dempsey roll has already been done, I'm guessing Ippo's gonna use the Gazelle Punch at some point to turn the tide. It's the only thing I can think of

Sendo is getting damn scary. It's hard to believe how much different he is now. He is kinda getting to Mashiba level of scariness.

Overall this fight is great so far. I know Ippo will think of a way to overcome this.

Ippo shines best when he's in a pinch tho, so maybe this is actually a good thing :D

Can't wait til his sakki awakens (hopefully)

Their match so far was absolutely amazing with the earthquake-like stomping of the crowd amplifying the intensity of the two's already unbelievably intense exchange of punches.

After that superb start and undeniably even exchange though, things are starting to go downhill for Ippo quick once he dared to block his way through Sendo's full-body assault even after seeing and feeling what one of his punches is capable of. He barely hung in there and got saved by the bell but the fear's already been imprinted. It's a very tough thing to ask for but don't let it get to you, Ippo!

I wonder if that thing where Sendo built up his weight past the limit after the weigh-up was fair.

I love how in the begin of the fight it subvert your exceptions when Ippo uses his move at the beginning. Instead of saving it till the end.

Ippo's rolls go crazy against Sendo - I liked how there were tiger growls in the background when Ippo talks about Sendo, it felt more intimidating. This match is looking close, there are blows being traded on both sides it's hard to tell who will be able to keep up their defense.

Re:W

If the first round was to Ippo, the second was for Sendo....
Ippo is in trouble, he is scared and that is the worst thing that can happen to him right now.
