Kimura faces off against Mashiba, the monstrous champion! Ippo becomes the Japanese champion after dueling Sendô. And just when he starts getting closer to Kumi and everything seems to be going perfectly, she suddenly says goodbye to him! Why? Because her older brother, Mashiba, the Japanese junior lightweight champion, will face Kimura, Ippo's senior, for the title!!
