Am I alone in hoping Wally gets fatally injured?
Like the stuff he's doing doesn't look like boxing at all, and its frustrating how the manga treats it as legit things that would be allowed.

Wally just the jobber to hype up Sendo's match in the end.
Is he gonna do a demsey roll smash?

Has Sendo ever fought with a coherent strategy other than "gently caress this guy, I'm going to punch even harder then"?

nope, Sendo's gonna see the smash fail and instead of thinking of something else, he just train up an upgraded smash.

I'm disappointed that Ippo is so silent this match at ringside, I guess he isn't the real coach of Wally, but he's given really good advice before.
I hope during the Sendo match, Sendo requests Ippo's assistance as well, and he struggles, but Ippo starts giving him some words and it actually really makes him put up a crazy close fight against Ricardo, but still lose obviously.

Then maybe ippo can come back in 5 more years of stalling...

Guess we have to wait another whole year of chapters for Sendo to also get killed.
And then Vorg too? Before Ippo comes back

Just have a 3v1,
Sendo, Miyata and Volg all fight him at the same time.
He still beats them.

he was knocked out by round 1, and the rest of the match was all in his head

Remember the sparring hype when Wally copied Sendo and Volg’s moves and it’s oh man he’s gonna use all these techniques against Ricardo or try to copy him!

Actual match: he just jumps around like an idiot the whole match and gets destroyed without doing anything other than regular punching attempts

i'm ready for a new ippo going into new matches and instead of face-tanking every hit like he usually does

just outright starts parrying/catching every punch and counterpunching everyone, and everyone just starts sweating bullets

pray for the random phillipine or thai or other SEA boxer that will be sacrificed on ippo's return match.

he just wanted some fight money to buy water for his village ippo, and you killed him!

pretty sure Morikawa would have penis jokes in every chapter, but his editor gets in his way.
and they reached a compromise that he's allowed one or two jokes every 10 chapters

Mashiba should special request Ippo to be his second. Would be interesting.

Didn't a random tip from Ippo a while ago actually turned out to be very useful to him in his previous fight.

they needed to have Ippo actually do something at Wally's ringside instead of spazzing out.

but thinking about it, he isn't that close to wally, he just fought him once. Maybe with Mashiba or Sendo, he would be more vocal.
As much as I don't care about the 3 newbies who i don't even remember the name of, would like Ippo to be like their actual trainer and second in their first newbie pro matches

I think Mashiba is just waiting for Ippo to man up and say to his face that he's gonna take care of Kumi so he doesn't have to worry anymore.
Course, she has her own career and an adult now, so she's not a little kid anymore, but Mashiba probably still has in his head that he still needs to protect her.

Have it be the thing holding him back from going full reaper. Won't unload fully because if he gets injured, 'who will look after kumi'
so he just needs to hear that Ippo will take care of it so he can limit off against the Jojo guy.
