[137] This stylistic disadvantage compelled the Kamogawa gym to avoid the long-awaited match between Ippo and Miyata, as it was seen as a hopeless endeavour. [138][139] The drawback was eventually exploited by the counter-puncher Sawamura, who challenged Ippo for the JBC title. [140][141] Most importantly, as noticed by Ippo, the passive procedure of waiting for the opponent to throw a punch before closing in resulted in him losing the initiative and forgoing the use of his left to claim the first strike, as is noticeable by the gradual neglect and eventual discardment of his jabbing. [142][143] This was a direct contradiction to the style Kamogawa originally envisioned for Ippo, which revolved around “hitting before being hit”. [144] Prior to his first performance on the world stage, Ippo's one-dimensional style was described by Eiji Date as too simplistic for the world level. [145] This idea was reinforced in the night of the fight by Ippo's opponent, Alfredo González, who judged his boxing as outdated and technically unremarkable. [146][147] Despite all of the complications the Dempsey Roll would bring, this was thought of by Kamogawa as a necessary evil, a sacrifice in order to achieve victory. [148] In the long run, all of the trials and tribulations Ippo confronted may have been the setup to an immense payoff, in the form of a weapon even stronger than the Dempsey Roll that would also conquer all of its weaknesses.
