Oda's best known as Makunouchi Ippo's debut opponent in the pro ring, though his actual record isn't much to write home about—3-3-0 with 3 KOs. He's a decent-looking guy who relied heavily on a devastating right straight that worked wonders against his early opponents, dropping them cleanly.
The real problem, though? Oda hated training. His coach Mikami was constantly frustrated watching him slack off to spend time with Reiko, the coach's daughter, instead of putting in the work. It's the kind of thing that probably explains why someone with genuine knockout power never quite built on that foundation.
