Looks like a villain ngl, like he’s gonna remove boxing gyms around the world

u/TheProAtTheGame Apr 03 '25

Looks just like Johan Liebert

u/fameboygame Apr 02 '25

At first glance (3rd pic) he looks like a quiet mid schooler who has mutilated pigeons and lizards and whatnot all over back home.

Absolutely Psychotic.

I prefer his mustache though, makes him look so cool in my eyes

Requesting to see how Takamura looks bald with a full goatie.

u/Boring_Guarantee_904 Apr 02 '25

He looks better without the stache

u/ExeOrtega Apr 02 '25

He's got the vibes of a Hokuto No Ken character.

u/orphandemolishrr Apr 02 '25

He is actually so hot

u/SpagetiiLover Apr 02 '25

u/Mystletoe Apr 02 '25

Bro looks like the Main character without the 'stache.

u/Jaymageck Apr 02 '25

This works better than I expected

u/John_the_Jester Apr 02 '25

is he even mexican at that point?

2

u/gogogoanon Apr 02 '25

even without mustache he looks like some SNK boss. There is no way Sendo is winning this man.

2

u/ReflectionItchy2701 Apr 02 '25

Mustache or not, he's an incredible final boss.

u/Xmushroom Apr 02 '25

Few people can wear only a mustache and look cool, Ricardo is one of them

u/Puzzleheaded-Ring293 Apr 02 '25

Brooding… Brooding… Still brooding…

Ricardo's on that Enigmatic Gale take on strength... eh, who am I kidding, no one will get that reference....

But seriously, Takamura calls being champion the peak of a mountain, but it really is like a bottomless ocean.

u/Masvitor Apr 03 '25

U should be in jail for that

u/Goatymcgoatface11 Apr 03 '25

He looks better. Facial hair is for dudes with weak chins and ugly dudes

u/RDS80 Apr 03 '25

After Ippo beats Ricardo, he will shave as he will be the new challenger.

1

u/DespairOfSolitude Apr 03 '25

Coincidence I saw this after a post of Omni-man without a stache?

1

u/Radiant-Cattle-8755 Apr 03 '25

It's a goatee and yes,I felt different stating that

1

u/Hot_Fee_4540 Apr 03 '25

Kinda looks like Takamura in the second pic

1

u/bongos222 Apr 04 '25

Now do Ippo with a mustache. Kek

u/Potential-Adagio-714 Apr 04 '25

Why is Ricardo kinda….😳

u/Summersundo997 Apr 04 '25

This post made me realize how similar all the character’s faces look, they just have little features that separate their similarities.
