Thanks for reminding me to read the new chapter. I'm surprised there's a chapter up somewhere before where I usually read which is a dedicated Ippo site.
Not sure I like it though. I was really looking forward to Sendo vs. Ricardo. It was the likeliest to bring Ippo back also. It seems like an unnecessary detour though I'm sure it will happen in 2025. =/
The last time he was shown was getting knocked down in a spar with Volg, but then again Volg is a world champion.
Woli has been racking up EXP on top of his based monkey skillz. Ippo was only his fourth fight and afterward him and Kamogawa said that they never want to fight him again lol.
That being said it's obviously just going to prop up Ricardo more, but I hope Woli has a real showing after all of his hype.
