Unfortunately this loss was expected at this point. Kamogawa and Ippo's risky ass fighting style was something the readers called out and memed for years and this fight exemplified the heights and the limits it could reach.
It was something mentioned by the fighters too and seen during all of Ippo's recent hard ass wins too. Just not something that should be competing at the world level, not to discount Ippo's own skills either. We saw many great technical exchanges from Ippo during this fight too adapting to his opponent and keeping up with his counters, but we all knew it couldn't have gone on like this for too much longer.
I'm honestly astonished Ippo managed to turn it into a slugfest in the end too and there were honestly moments in the fight that really did make you think Ippo could go the distance but we'll need some real growth from our boy from here on if we want to see him progress to the world properly.
