* {{Irony}}: Kojima spends every second of his interactions with Ippo prior to their match trash-talking him and his teammates, even mocking Coach Kamogawa (which ends up being the [[{{RageBreakingPoint}} breaking point]] for Ippo), all so he can fight his idol at the peak of his skill with everything he's got in what he plans to be his final match, one he can look back on with pride for the rest of his years. Come the fateful match, and Ippo, truly enraged by Kojima's actions, [[spoiler: pushes right through his supposedly perfect anti-Dempsey Roll strategy and hits him with a single punch to the head so '''''hard''''' that it flips him over in midair ''twice'', knocks him out instantly...and leaves him completely unable to remember the entirety of the fight he had been looking forward to so much.]]

* CharacterDevelopment: After over 900 chapters, the fight with Kojima [[spoiler:unleashed Ippo's inner rage for the first time ever while also highlighting his fighting style's predictable weaknesses and his foolish strategy of charging head-first into avoidable damage just to hit someone back. The arcs that follow tear apart Ippo's strategies and training, as even if he won against Kojima, every problem Kojima knew about came to bite him back in the ass, leading to Ippo's early retirement, followed by ''another'' nearly-catastrophic lash out moment of pure rage against Taihei. Ippo's free time to consider his life, eventually train and get back in shape on more free terms combined with recognizing his UnstoppableRage and severe defense problems allows him to start recuperating himself significantly, to the point that even Volg realizes Ippo has only become '''stronger''' in his supposed retirement.]]

* ASinisterClue: While Ippo isn't exactly "sinister" in terms of being malicious, all of the times where he "[[RageBreakingPoint snapped]]" and struck someone full-force had him throw the devastating blow explicitly with his ''left'' hand (e.g. [[spoiler:him punching Kojima and making him do a backflip and also him slapping Taihei [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom a good 10 or so feet away]]]]).
