| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That episode was amazing! Awesome ending |
| that was an interesting fight,this series is really good |
 |
| I wonder if that spot on the chin that he hit actually works in real life... Seems pretty cool. The ending is funny too when he can't sleep. |
| I'm back. |
that was an awesome finish for an awesome fight!!! |
| Great fight, Ippo is the man. |
| That was indeed awesome!! O_O |
| Can't believe Ippo managed to land part of that last uppercut. That was a great fight. |
    |
| Great fight seriously, can't believe he was able to just chip his chin. |
 |
| hands down for ippo what a great fight |
 |
| loved the bit in the end with him replaying his victory and worrying about being late for school ;) wonder if the reporter will right write an article about the fight? and who he'll praise the most if he does. if he does though, I'm sure that sucker's getting framed and going up on a wall somewhere in Ippo's home ;) |
| Awesome match, seems there will be some dramatic news coming up though =O but what an uppercut by Ippo xD! |
| Awesome match. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| dang, miyata makes a really good rival for ippo. i hope that he doesn't get thrown off as a supporting char in the future, cause he's a real interesting character. bahh whatever xD to the next episode!! |
| I think Ippo was shocked the most out of everyone. He couldn't believe it. |
 |
| Loved the title of of this episode "Destructive power of 1cm" :-O Ippo is da MAN! |
   |
| I guess the title was not lying after all. 1cm and match is over. |
 |
| Awesome ending to an awesome fight. I didn't expect it to end just like that. |
| What a great fight! I was on the edge of my seat. |
 |
| Remind me not to get hit in the chin... |
 |
| That was a great fight. Amazing how it's not even an official match. |
| That was an incredible episode! |
 |
| Awesome win with an awesome punch. Great episode like always. |
 |
| I have been, once, punched on the chin so I guarantee that K.O.-tic uppercut on the chin felt really really bad. 5/5 I would continue watching this gem xD |
 |
| I guess Ippo will start to make sensation! And I guess uppercut will become is speciality in some way. Miyata seem to be really shaken up after that defeat, I don't think the father visited the coach to thanks him like he said... |

One of the slang terms for this particular spot on the chin is the "knockout button". The Site Below said: [...]A knockout punch snaps the head to the back or side and smashes the brain against the skull. The impact may traumatize the brainstem, resulting in loss of motor control. Blood supply to the brain can be cut off. Source: http://healthyliving.azcentral.com/punch-jaw-cause-knockout-1136.html |
| That was amazing! Fantastic fight, I'll definitely continue watching this series. |
| Really epic episode! Great victory Ippo! Let's see what's next. |

| Woah woah amazing episode. The 2nd round was kind of boring because Miayata was only clinching, but this was needed for the upcoming rounds which were epic as fuck. The 3rd round was completely on Miyata's advantage, he pressured Ippo so much but the bell saved Ippo from the punch in the end. The last round was obviously the highlight of this episode, a motionless uppercut which very slightly touched Miyata's chin but was enough to numb his body. And thus Ippo won the match. 5/5 for the episode and a solid 9 for the series, this is great. |
| Thought for sure Miyata was taking the fight. Kept me in suspense until the actual finish. Best episode so far to a kickass series! |
Awesome fight, close to the very end!  Such a lovable goofball. |
 |
| Holy shit this episode was so damn good! |

| So cute when Ippo won and couldn't sleep. =) You go! |
 |
| Impressive, I didn't think it would work out. Still worried about brain damage |
 |
| Thought that was pretty terrible tbh. He really shouldn't have won that fight |
   |
| I was making a guts pose for Ippo too! But damn that must've been a huge blow to Miyata's pride and I feel bad for him. :( |

I don't know if that specific spot always works, but I've seen it happen in boxing and UFC where someone seems fine but keeps stumbling over like a drunk when they try to get up. Like they can't control their body lol. |
| ~ The world is not beautiful, therefore it is. |
| I didn't expect Ippo to won, but wow First win for Ippo and first lost for Miyata Awww happy Ippo is making me smiled I wish there is a pro boxer here to explain us whether that chin thingy is real or not |
"Signature removed"   |
| I'm surprised the author let Ippo win this one :0 I guess it's alright to win out of pure luck sometimes, hah. At least Miyata will fire up even more after losing. Can't wait til Ippo looks as badass as those intermission cards *O* and has real pro fights, aaahhhhhhhh~~~ |
| Ippo's will is greater than anything.Good fight |
| Damn Miyata has some mad dodging skills, if he only was a little bit farther from Ippo's fist he probably could have dodged Ippo's motionless short uppercut and won the match. |
 |
| I actually didnt think that Ippo would win. What a surprise. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| It initially looked like Miyata was getting really desperate and he was in a way but he eventually turned the tables on Ippo after a tactical decision to get more time to recover mid-fight. The whole fight was thrilling and the way how Ippo clinched the victory by grazing Miyata with his deadly uppercut was both awesome for the former and tough to watch for the latter. I'm hoping that their relationship will deepen from here throughout! Miyata better not quit because of this. |
 |
| Only a sparring, but with these characters it was so captivating. It wasn't a complete loss for Miyata, but imagine getting pushed so hard by a rookie :S Good for Ippo, tho, his work paid off and seeing him and the others all satisfied was nice. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| really loves how ippo didn't won moriyata in combat advantage but in minor thing. what i really loves about HnI matches that in other sport anime there will be commentary all around, but in HnI it is so minor. |
| that was a good fight!! |
If you don't like me, acquire some taste |
| wow, that actually surprised me, i thought ippo wasn't gonna win this one either and that we'd have to wait longer for him to score a victory nice episode! |
i wish i was a cloud |
