This idea is no better exemplified than in his World Middleweight Championship bout against David Eagle, in which Takamura is able to deliver pinpoint and decisive combinations just by looking at the position of Eagle's feet.
These skills in combination with his already transcendent combat instincts make him a surgeon in the ring. Footwork allows him to maximize his speed and agility, letting him maneuver around the ring with ease. Takamura's massive punching power is also fine-tuned, as Kamogawa's use of training mitts to help Takamura develop combinations and punching angles have made him a precise power puncher. In this sense, Takamura can be likened to a powerful wild animal with the boxing IQ and technique of a Muhammad Ali or Floyd Mayweather. This investment in the fundamentals yielded an immense return, as Takamura can utilize every aspect of his raw athleticism in the ring. After these natural gifts were refined by Coach Kamogawa to be harnessed in the ring, Takamura became a boxing god.įrom the start, Kamogawa drilled the basics of boxing into Takamura. The majority of his life spent brawling in street fights, Takamura possessed elite speed, agility and power even before receiving proper training. Takamura is manga boxing's equivalent to LeBron James in the sense that his natural athleticism and instincts make him a transcendent talent.
