Tingin ko talaga may mali sa coaching ginawa ni Kamogawa sa kanya lately.
Hindi sya pinapagspar sa mga boxers with similar style para masanay sa makakalaban nya (compared sa mga coach nina Miyata, na pinapag-dual-spar sya before boxing a switch-hitter, at Sendou, pinapagspar sya with different foreign boxers (Pacific as well as Mexican boxers) before the next step of boxing at the world stage.
With the multitude of those world-rankers (Takamura, Eagle, Sendou, Date, Ricardo, Alfredo, Volg, Elliott, Randy Boy Jr., and possibly even Miyata) who can either easily utilize both in-fighting and out-boxing, be savage yet still use their brain, or be very highly skilled in tactics/techniques yet still carry a killer punch, Ippo's straightforward "take hits while I tire the enemy, and then hope for that comeback punch" approach wouldn't likely cut it.
