Synopsis
Joe senses that Rikishi has stabilized his body after the weight cut. Seeing his rival's smile, Joe enters the ring to settle the score from their reformatory days. The bout begins. Adopting the arms-down stance, Joe slips Rikishi's upper with a sway-back and fires a straight. But arched back like that, his punch lacks the needed power.
