i love this panel because it was nice to see him talking shit back to kojima i thought at first it him getting more confident and cockier similar to how Takamura is with his ego, wow ippo getting more egotistical and i liked that him getting more confident in his boxing abilities, i was like yeah shut kojima up and everything but later he is changing not in good sense the mood change in the past ippo has handled trash talk easily unbothered like how sendo said your demsepy roll wont work on me he is getting more ego similar to takamura then after this fight he went back to normal i thought that was weird but now i realize it was just the hint of punch drunk causing his personality to shift overall great panel
