In the whole series Ippo loses once!


Although I enjoyed watching this I realised ippo kept winning and eventually loses once, this was very annoying, Before a fight started I knew no matter what the other boxer does ippo will win. After watching the whole series im quite sure he only lost once, he must have had over 40 fights. Its a shame but it was funny so il let it slide.

Well its one of the facts of pro boxing that the sport doesn´t allow for a lot of losses because boxing stables invest quite a lot of money into each match.


If you look at the current big names in boxing,they all have quit low nr of losses.
These days if a young boxer who shows promise in pro fights would have 2 or 3 losses, the would cut him loose, just like it happened to volg in the series.
