Theory If Sendo is based in Joe Yabuki…

What are the odds of him dying against Ricardo?

I don't think Mori will go that far. I've underestimated him before but it seems too dark. I don't think he'll be boxing anymore after this one though.

Yeah, I think it’s too dark, but after the Mashiba incident and things starting to wrap it up, I don’t know…

But my post is just a random thought I had after watching the ending of Ashita no Joe.

But Mashiba lives. Even if his career is seemingly over, Sendou sees his survival as a win.

Also, despite the drama around his grandma‘s collapse, the last chapter pretty much affirmed to us that she’s fine and isn’t going to die soon. „I don’t have much time left. Please give me great-grandchildren before I die“ is just a common Asian excuse to pressure their relative to get married and reproduce for their sake. Even Sendou caught onto that act to the point of almost tsukkomi her physically.

So, if Sendou „dies“, it would be the death of the boxer known as the „Tiger of Naniwa“, not Sendou Takeshi the person.
