負かした俺: who beat whom in this relative clause? Context: Riku is a boxer of Baba gym. Tokorozawa is a retired boxer of Baba gym. Ishigami is a retired boxer of an unmentioned gym. Tokorozawa beat Ishigami in the past. Recently, Tokorozawa asked a favour to Ishigami. Now also Riku is taking advantage of Ishigami's help. When Riku asks Ishigami about the match with Tokorozawa, Ishigami says: > **** … is a transitive verb, so I think means "me who beat". From this sentence it looks like it was Ishigami that beat someone from Baba gym. Who is the subject and object of ? Could you explain how this relative clause works? Could you also confirm that is the subject of ? Here you can see the original page (Ishigami is the man with the shaven head). Thank you for your help!

> {}{}{}{}… {}{}

You are reading the part the other way around. The one who has been beaten is the speaker and the one who beat the speaker is (or someone from that gym).

means **** , which is what the speaker refers to by . is certainly often translated as "everyone", but that is only the " ** _figurative everyone_** ".

In reality, is used when more than one person are doing the same (kind of) thing. Furthermore, in emphatic or exaggerated speech, we quite often use to refer to just one person when we have a strongly negative feeling about his/her action.

> Could you also confirm that is the subject of ?

Exactly, it is. is the only "real" verb there since is used within a relative clause.
