00:00This video is brought to you by
01:30Supper's ready, honey.
01:32Thanks, Mom.
01:32But I already ate.
01:35He doesn't look very happy.
01:37I lost, didn't I?
01:51Aren't you gung-ho?
02:11Well, I just thought it was time to start getting ready for my return match.
02:14Good idea.
02:16It's nice to see you working hard.
02:18I have to say, the place is different without Ipo around.
02:20I hear you.
02:23I always feel inspired to go the extra mile when I see how intensely he trains every day.
02:29So, it's been about a week off, huh?
02:31That can be a hell of a rough time after a fight.
02:33Don't I know?
02:33That's when the grim reality of losing really starts to sink in.
02:36It must be nice to feel each other's pain.
02:39Of course, I can't relate, because I've never been a loser like you.
02:43It's so awful to be a loser.
02:45I worry about the kid.
02:46What if he gets despondent and never fights again?
02:49Like you pathetic chumps.
02:50I hope you get KO'd, you bastard.
02:53No, I don't think there's any need to worry about that.
02:55He's doing all he can to take his mind off it.
02:58What are you saying?
02:59Well, I picked up a juicy little rumor from Tomiko.
03:03Hey, guys, I...
03:04You dirty dog, you got a hell of a lot of nads spending your recovery time out carousing with your little chickie.
03:11No, no, it wasn't like that at all, I swear.
03:13Don't give me any lame excuses.
03:16What the hell?
03:18You just went to an amusement park and ate...
03:20Yes, it's what I've been telling you over and over.
03:23Boring.
03:23Ugh, he drives me crazy.
03:25So, what brings you here today?
03:27Don't tell me you came by to practice.
03:29Well, I was just wondering if anyone happened to tape my match the other day.
03:33I want to watch it so I can see what kind of mistakes I made and fix them.
03:36I taped it.
03:37I think it's still in the deck.
03:38If you want to watch it, just make yourself at home.
03:41Uh, thanks, I will.
03:42Wow, this place is still the same hideous pigsty.
03:48Unbelievable.
03:49I'm gone.
03:51Leave me a message after the beep.
03:52Got it?
03:55Hey, he got an answering machine.
03:57Tom, you did something to me after the train, didn't you?
03:59I never want to see you again, you creep!
04:01It's Tygo.
04:08I'll never forget what you did.
04:10If you never call me again, I'll call the cops.
04:14Hello?
04:15It's the Tony.
04:16You'll pay for this.
04:17You'll pay for this.
04:18Oh, the video.
04:19Gotta watch the video.
04:20Yeah.
04:24Look at that.
04:25He doesn't flinch.
04:26He charges forward and goes in for the kill.
04:29It's a glorious fight worthy of the challenger.
04:31Look at Noochie throws a left.
04:33It's a clean, sharp blow to the body.
04:36So we're in the first round.
04:39What's this?
04:40The challenger has stopped moving.
04:42Under my ear, huh?
04:45Impressive.
04:46He's really aiming his punches.
04:47The champ widens his stance to intercept.
04:51I remember this part.
04:53Yeah.
04:54I'm making the form I practiced in training.
04:57Looks pretty good.
04:58I sure felt the impact of that punch.
05:02I really thought it would make him fall.
05:04The truth is, Ivo, your fists are light.
05:06To defeat me, you're gonna need more than that.
05:10That's a lie.
05:11My punches are hurting him.
05:13I don't get it.
05:15How is he able to take them?
05:17A left.
05:19The champion scores with a full swing to the pace.
05:23Here we go.
05:25Here's where my memory of the fight trails off.
05:31I'm hitting back.
05:32I'm still fighting just the way I should.
05:34He has a lot of damage, too.
05:38I wore him down to the point where he was vulnerable.
05:40Oh, I was so close that that right had connected.
05:43Darn it.
05:44I should have followed up there with a solid left.
05:46What are you doing?
05:47You've got to make that punch swing a lot wider.
05:49The towel has been thrown.
05:57He hits the mat a second before the towel lands.
06:00The fight is over.
06:03The challenger has finally exhausted his strength.
06:07Makanuchi's string of ten consecutive knockouts has come to an end.
06:11The Japan featherweight champion defended his title in an amazing five rounds, two minutes, and thirty-two seconds.
06:17This is the spot.
06:24There's that right.
06:26It completely knocked me senseless.
06:29It was a really hard right, but still.
06:34From a spectator's perspective, it looks like Mr. Date took that kind of a punch, too.
06:43It's not because he's super good at taking hits.
06:46His legs were weak like mine.
06:51So how can he withstand it?
06:53How can he stay on his feet?
06:55At least it was a great fight.
07:12Just listen to that crowd.
07:15And I wanted to give them a great fight.
07:18I tried hard, but...
07:20That's all there was to it.
07:30Mr. Date is different.
07:33He swore he would win.
07:35He swore he would win no matter what.
07:37I can see the sheer determination in his eyes.
07:44The determination to face any match.
07:47That was a huge difference between us.
07:49The truth is, I wasn't outclassed that much in ability.
07:55And all this time, I thought that my passion for boxing was second to none.
08:00But ultimately, I was thoroughly beaten at that single most important thing.
08:12Hmm?
08:14A stain?
08:16Ugh, this apartment is filthy!
08:18It's not coming out!
08:25What is this stuff?
08:28Hmm?
08:35Ugh!
08:39I can't stand it!
08:42Back when I was being bullied, it never hurt like this!
08:46For the very first time, I found something that I was proud to say I loved.
08:52And I finally built some self-confidence.
08:55I thought my passion for boxing was the advantage I had over everyone else.
09:00But despite all that...
09:02Despite all that...
09:04Damn it!
09:12Huh?
09:13Looks like he's still watching it.
09:14The poor guy's probably playing it over and over again.
09:17Hey!
09:18You guys!
09:19Let's go to an arcade or something!
09:23Guess you're a sensitive guy after all.
09:26Sensitive?
09:27I just want to drop a few quarters.
09:29Well, if that's your story, I'll let you stick to it.
09:31I'll let you do it.
09:33What?
09:41I gotta do it.
09:56Welcome home.
10:15You're still awake, Mom?
10:17I'm trying to figure out how much stock to order.
10:20When it gets this cold, the customers start to dwindle.
10:23Maybe I should reduce the amount of bait, too.
10:26You certainly have the face of a boy right now, huh?
10:32When I see that look of shame that is on your face, son,
10:35and the look of pain over losing,
10:37it makes me stop and realize
10:39that you're still a boy.
10:43When you were in high school and you came home after being bullied,
10:46you just laugh and do your best to disguise it.
10:51You must really love boxing to act this way now.
10:53At first, it wasn't about winning or losing.
10:57I was just happy if I hit the bag with a solid thud.
11:01And I was so thrilled just to put on the gloves.
11:04You know, the whole idea of fighting in a title match
11:06seemed like something out of a dream.
11:09So I always thought I'd be satisfied if I put up a good fight,
11:12no matter how it turned out.
11:13And didn't you do just that?
11:19Well, I'm sorry.
11:21This is something I can't forget.
11:23I started because I liked it
11:25and continued because I like it.
11:28And I still truly love it.
11:30So I just can't hide it.
11:32I can't take this defeat.
11:33I can't stand for it to end like this.
11:39Um, so that's why
11:41I'll probably still give you reasons to worry.
11:44Oh, that's okay, dear.
11:46Believe me, I know too well how men won't listen to reason
11:49after they say something like that.
11:53Keep doing it until you're satisfied.
11:55I guess it's true what they say.
12:14Like father, like son.
12:25Wow, it's getting really packed.
12:44Rocky and Nandewon taking the title.
12:46Yeah!
12:50Look at those Sendoh fans.
12:53It's Makanuchi.
12:54Hey!
12:55Look, guys!
12:56It's really him!
13:04We'll never forget him!
13:05Sorry, sorry!
13:06Sendoh's gonna bring home the belt today
13:08and then you'll be next on his hit list, jerk!
13:10Uh, excuse me, could I please get through?
13:12Say what?
13:13Why don't you defend yourself?
13:14The man asked if he'd let him through.
13:17Um, Miata!
13:19It's not a good idea to make him mad.
13:21After all, I think it's pretty obvious.
13:23He's a lot stronger than you are.
13:28Let's go.
13:29He's so cool!
13:36What are you waiting for?
13:37Uh, yeah!
13:39Hey, what brings you to the fight today?
13:41Wow, what a surprise!
13:42I thought I should at least find out who's going to be the new title holder of my own weight class.
13:47You really are incredible.
13:48Your overseas record is now ten wins in one draw with eight KOs.
13:52Then you went to the Nationals to get third ranking in the OPBF.
13:55That's where you made your triumphant return!
13:58You certainly do your homework.
14:00Well, I love to read about you.
14:02Stats, news, anything!
14:04I've got your career all scoped out!
14:07Hey, wait up!
14:08What's wrong?
14:09Where are you going?
14:09Miata!
14:10Miata!
14:10Wait for me!
14:11What's your hurry?
14:12This is really intense.
14:19Vork's going to have a pretty rough time with this home crowd rooting against him.
14:22And it does seem to have an awful lot of charisma.
14:25It's quite impressive.
14:26With all the patriotism for Japan, this arena's practically enemy territory to Vork.
14:31True.
14:32But it's still no excuse if he loses.
14:36That's right.
14:37He had to deal with that, too.
14:42What's your prediction?
14:45Sendoh will win at power.
14:47Vork will win at technique.
14:49But I'm sure they've changed a lot since they fought me.
14:52I don't think it'll come down to points.
14:54I have to agree.
14:56Both fighters look ready to rumble.
14:58Who'll be the one to take Eiji Date's returned belt today,
15:01the Nordic Wolf or Japan's own Tiger of Naniwa?
15:05It'll go to one of them.
15:08Mr. Date's belt.
15:10The title I couldn't reach.
15:12The Japan Featherweight Champion match has begun.
15:18Who'll be the first to step forward?
15:20Sendoh or Vork?
15:23Their reach is the same.
15:24The tension's incredible.
15:26They're both so calm compared to the atmosphere in here.
15:29Get him, Sendoh!
15:31Judging from the way they're sliding right into that crouching style,
15:35I'd say they're both hard punches.
15:36If I were out there, I'd come out hitting just to see how my opponent reacted.
15:40Sendoh, start swinging right away!
15:42Whoa, his step-in's unbelievably fast!
15:45It's a threat.
15:46He wanted to show off his power.
15:48Then he did a good job of it.
15:49Anyone would stop cold in his tracks after seeing that.
15:53Now there's an uppercut from Vork!
15:56Who was supposed to stop cold?
15:57Oh, that's the former amateur world champ for you.
16:00He's got a lot of pride.
16:02And that's fine with me!
16:06These cocky types annoy me.
16:09Stand back and show a little respect!
16:15Whoa!
16:16Vork's the first to connect!
16:18He lashed out with a blinding fury of jabs!
16:20Vork's got a whole variety of punches.
16:24You can't block them all with a guard like that.
16:28You jerk!
16:29A chop to the liver!
16:31He answers with a hit to the jaw!
16:35He's staggering!
16:36He's dropped his guard!
16:38Sendoh's tough, but he's still reeling.
16:40It's the sharp edge of the hits.
16:42Heavy punches take away physical strength,
16:44but sharp punches sever the spirit.
16:47You arrogant bastard!
16:48Another right connects!
16:50Whoa!
16:53He delivers a left while taking a hit!
16:55That was a smash!
16:56This is awful!
16:57He took that punch head-on!
16:58He's not looking at his opponent.
17:00He made that hit with sheer intuition.
17:03Vork's back crumples!
17:04And Sendoh strides forward with the utmost confidence!
17:08That was a smash?
17:10I couldn't even tell where it came from!
17:13This time Sendoh charges in!
17:16What force?
17:17When he hammers at my guard,
17:18it actually pulls me into his rhythm!
17:21Don't get sucked into his face!
17:23Make him swing wide!
17:24You bastard!
17:25You're not getting away!
17:27Another smash!
17:29That wouldn't really hurt!
17:31It's no good!
17:32He can't take that kind of punishment!
17:34He withstood it!
17:39Haven't you had enough?
17:43The White Fang!
17:45That move made me fall flat on my face!
17:55I wonder why!
17:58Those two in the ring remind me of how Mr. Date looked in our fight!
18:01Well, they're evenly matched so far!
18:08It's really amazing!
18:10They're both taking hits that would normally knock them down for sure!
18:13Huh!
18:14Knock them down for sure?
18:16Now I get it!
18:21Yeah?
18:21What's that?
18:22Their eyes look exactly like Mr. Date's did when I fought him!
18:25They aren't wasting a single thought on losing!
18:27They've both sworn they'll win!
18:29It's that look of total determination!
18:33Ah, determination!
18:34It's a feeling of firm, unshakable resolve!
18:38It's what keeps the fighters standing!
18:40It's not something that easily dies!
18:41I'm sort of amazed!
18:45You actually managed to beat these two guys!
18:47No, I, uh...
18:48Well...
18:49It's a different situation!
18:53I could never beat them the way they are now!
18:56Especially if I hadn't improved since the day I fought Date!
19:00You got any damage?
19:01Are you doing all right?
19:02Just great!
19:02I've got the advantage!
19:03Take a look at him!
19:04The poor guy's even bleeding from the mouth!
19:06I'm way ahead of him!
19:09That was close!
19:10Those punches were awfully sharp!
19:12I'm still seeing sparks!
19:15I haven't felt this kind of anxiety since the Makanouchi fight!
19:21He has excellent intuition!
19:23He might even be stronger than Makanouchi!
19:27If I get knocked down, I probably won't get up!
19:31Our fighting styles mesh way too much!
19:34It's impossible to dodge everything!
19:36Don't get discouraged!
19:40If you take one, give back three!
19:43I'll persevere!
19:44I will win this fight!
19:47Cornerman!
19:47Out!
19:48All right, here I come!
19:49Watch out!
19:50Borg attacks right away!
19:52Oh, Borg went first!
19:53I'm surprised!
19:54Wise decision!
19:55It's also a really good preventative measure!
19:57Really?
19:57But Sendo's way better at that kind of rough fighting!
20:00I didn't think you'd put the heat on so soon!
20:03Sendo returns with his own rough punches!
20:05But none of them score!
20:07I guess you wouldn't exactly call this a refined boxing match!
20:10Small, tight, accurate!
20:12Forge ruthless attack!
20:13Pummel Sendo!
20:15He's throwing me off my strike!
20:17Body blow!
20:19That must really hurt!
20:21It takes more than body blows to knock me down!
20:23I'll win in the end!
20:31Round two is over!
20:33We just witnessed the terrifying, ferocious attack of the wolf!
20:37Sendo was unable to escape from his corner for the entire three minutes!
20:41He's so strong!
20:42Keep pacing yourself!
20:44I can't take him lightly!
20:45If I keep taking those body blows, my mind will still be working, but my body won't!
20:50Winning early is the key!
20:51What are you doing? If he controls the pace, you won't regain your footing!
20:55I wanted to control the pace, too, but I can't seem to hit him!
20:59It's so frustrating!
21:01If he way outclasses me technically...
21:07Oh, man! This is a losing battle!
21:13But what can I do?
21:15This is the only way I know how to fight!
21:21I can still do it!
21:32I'm gonna win this fight!
21:36I'm gonna win!
21:38And face Makuna Uchi again!
21:41Poor Sendo!
21:42I want to fight Makuna Uchi again!
21:50Down! It looks hopeless for Sendo!
21:53Oh, man!
21:55Get to your corner, Borg!
21:56One!
21:58Two!
22:00Three!
22:02Four!
22:03Five!
22:05Six!
22:07Seven!
22:08I saw that!
22:09Hey!
22:21I get out again
22:24With my wounded body
22:29Tomorrow's the only way to go
22:40In that way I could melt being high with you
22:47Tomorrow is my only care
22:52Even if I cannot deal with my love
22:59Tomorrow that I don't want to be safe
23:05A place to live with a place to death
23:13I can't help myself live in the same
23:19Full rounds
23:24Fighting all the rounds in a given match
23:27A Japanese title match lasts 10 rounds
23:30Two men with strength and stamina beyond belief
23:33Face the final round after already giving it everything they've got
23:36It's a level of fighting I've never experienced
23:39A world in which even the champ might not stand in the same place for more than a day
23:42That's the ring where I want to try to keep on standing
23:45Next round, Rhyhole
