A boxer without a prayer meets a naive nun who might be his only chance for salvation…and victory in the ring.
A talented boxer whose hunger for victory is eclipsed only by his ravenous appetite for hearty meals, Kosaku Hatanaka might have what it takes to be a true contender. Too bad his gluttonous gorging never fails to dash his hard-pressed coach’s dreams of managing a champion. Can the virtuous (and really cute) Sister Angela, a novice nun with a soft spot for hard-luck cases, help steer Kosaku down the path to righteousness–and victory in the ring?! There’s a new face around Mukaida’s gym–a wannabe teenage pugilist who’ll do anything to prove he’s got what it takes to be a fighter… So why is he always sucker punching coach Mukaida? Can Kosaku bounce back from a bout with food poisoning in time to correct this young tough’s bad attitude? Later, Kosaku strikes a bargain with Sister Angela. If he wins his next big eight-round fight, she’ll agree to spend Christmas with him. Sounds simple enough, so why is the Mother Abbess forbidding Kosaku from punching his opponent’s midsection? Could it have something to do with the Mexican fighter’s religious tattoo?Author: Rumiko Takahashi
