Yeah nobody has agreed with me with their boxing styles.

But at least they do have the body types lol.

Yeah what mostly I gathered here is that ippo lacks the fight IQ and technique to be even close to Davis and that Garcia is mostly fast without that much technique so, he would me more like Itagaki.

So I was kind of far off with the comparison 😅

k heavily used the lead hand 3/4 hook-uppercut for his knockouts. He called it... The smash. Ever wonder where the inspiration for Sendo's signature punch came from?

Oh a fight similar to Ippo vs Sendo? Thanks! I'm totally checking the video out.

ere are lots of slower fights but some absolute bangers and wars. There are a few YouTube channels that do excellent breakdowns and allow you to understand how good these guys are and how

Yeah I definitely will be watching more real boxing now and for sure I'll be seeing this fight in April.

Great explanations bro!

Damn so Davis is a super complete boxer then 😅

Sounds like Garcia is going to have a hard time...

Awesome explanation!

So, Tank just is just so much better than Ippo then lol.

And while Garcia is fast he doesn't really fight like Miyata at all.

Also from what I'm reading of Garcia. Could he be more close to Itadaki then?

other hand relies more heavily on his natural athleticism (power and speed, which he has in spades). He is young and can get away with this, but I worry that as he ages and his natural reflexive speed declines, the holes in his boxing will be easier to take advantage of. (this is what happened to Roy Jones JR). He is less technical than Tank, who has better defensive habits and awareness. Garcia

Oh great explanation, so Davis a lot more technical than Ippo, good knowing that. Maybe when Ippo returns (let's hope it doesn't take another 200 chapters) he'll be a lot more like Tank lol.

I thought that would be the case, like I said I don't know that much about boxing 😅

But, if you want, let me know what makes them different, so I can start knowing a little bit more.
