 The two duplicate characters are Ippo and Mamoru Takamura . The two characters are weaker than their normal versions and are embodiments of parts of the original story . The weaker Ippo is the first version of the character available . He wears sweats and a T @-@ shirt rather than the boxing trunks the other characters wear . This version is based on when Ippo began boxing and was training to fight his rival , Ichiro Miyata . The weaker Takamura has less muscle mass and looks ill . He is based on a fight in the manga when Takamura overdid his weight management .
