Kamogawa gonna die of old age/disease and his dying wish is gonna be for ippo to get back in the ring because that's where he belongs. Ippo, now free from the shackles of kamogawa's outdated coaching and boxing philosophy finally makes progress. Not sure how the miyata kumi love triangle plays out

I'm still banking on Miyata dying from trying to maintain featherweight to be what gets Ippo back in the ring.

He just has not seemed to have recovered from his Championship loss.

I still wonder if the issue is HIS loss, or Ippo's losses/retirement. He might have the Miyata problem.

I also don't think there's ever been a decision win that hasn't been met with resounding boos from the audience in Ippo.

He should wrap the series for his health's sake and focus on his boxing gym imo, or maybe so many notable recent mangaka deaths have me spooked

I mean even if that was his goal, there's still way too much to do for any sort of speedy wrap-up. Takamura still needs three more weight class title wins (and that's ignoring title defenses), Sendo has his title shot with Martinez, you still got Miyata who seems depressingly content to just stay as a regional featherweight champion than just accepting he can't fight Ippo and get a world title in a weight class that won't kill him, and then you have whatever plan there is for Ippo.
