Summary
What seemed like a dream quickly turned into reality. Match after match, they saw, cheered, and roared Ippo’s name as another star was added into his streak of KOs. Umezawa bragged about him to his other friends, of course. They knew each other, right? They were basically friends.
But his chest ached with every win.
Each time, he wanted nothing more than to drag Ippo into some quiet corner and say the words he’d swallowed for years. Yet shame, pride, and envy tangled too tightly inside him to unravel. The timid Ippo he had once written off as a wimp was blazing forward; growing into a star at such a pace that he could only watch as he slipped further from reach. Toward a future he wanted, opposite of Umezawa himself, only following where life took him.
So he settled for cheering, loud enough to drown out the ache.
------
Umezawa struggles with himself as he tries to sort out his feelings towards Ippo as his former bully and now friend, and perhaps something more if the world is kind enough. (Smut's only at the end of chapter one if you wanna skip it)

Fake it ‘til You Make it by SparklingHomunculus
Fandoms: Hajime no Ippo | Fighting Spirit
07 Sep 2025

Summary
Loosely inspired by a tumblr post I saw re: a pair of guys pretending to be gay to scam the gym under the family discount package
“U-Umezawa-kun..!” Ippo squeaks, adopting a submissive little bow. Oh yeah, this guy’s definitely a fruit. “Do you…go to this gym..?” he chances with a gulp.
“Uhh, no?” Umezawa squints. “What the hell gave you that idea?”
“Oh..! I just…” and then Ippo whispers what sounds a lot like ‘you’re really strong’ before he goes on to ask, “so why are you here?”
“It’s a free country?! Jeez!” Umezawa runs a hand over his face, flustered.

Steps to a (Sexually) Active Love Life by Mr_Toasty_Toast
Fandoms: Hajime no Ippo | Fighting Spirit
27 Aug 2025
Tags
Summary
Even with women, Ippo never truly knew everything there was to know about sex. Let alone with another man. He knew of kissing, blowjobs, and penetration. He’d read porn magazines and watched, albeit involuntarily (thanks Takamura). But how did it all work between two men? There was no actual place to put their… thing into, unless the asshole could somehow work. He didn’t know where to learn more about this stuff—and he couldn't ask about it lest he wished for his whole life to be ruined.
But Umezawa seemed to know. Their time that night, which essentially was masturbating their cocks together, felt better than anything he’d ever done by himself (which was also only jerking off). He couldn’t take his mind off it. What else was there?
And here he was in Umezawa’s apartment, making an excuse to help with his manga to stay overnight, intent on finding out. Though the determined intention didn’t stop him from blushing as he expressed his desire to Umezawa. They sat across from one another, tea left unattended with the much too interesting topic at hand.
----
Basically, a compilation of these two boys' sex life as they grow more comfortable with each other in their relationship.

Summary
Raised in your father’s boxing gym in the heart of Mexico City, you always knew your place wasn’t in the ring—but right beside it. Fluent in English and Japanese, with a sharp eye for strategy and detail, you’ve carved out a name for yourself as a rising cutman and translator under the mentorship of Ricardo Martinez’s coach, Bill Stewart. As his right hand, you help coordinate Ricardo’s matches and navigate the global boxing scene.
When Japan’s featherweight champion, Eiji Date, vacates his title to face Ricardo once more, you head to Japan to study their boxing world up close—hoping to scout new challengers ready to step onto the world stage.
But your path collides with Takeshi Sendo—Japan’s fierce new champ with a punch as wild as his heart—and you find yourself caught between duty, loyalty, and something you never expected.

Summary
I had this idea in my head where Ippo and Umezawa answer each other's personal ads and unwittingly meet up for sex. For context, Barazoku was a pioneering gay men's magazine in Japan that would've been popular around that time, and one of its draws was - you guessed it - personal ads...
Ippo has never done anything like this in his life. He adjusts his collar a little higher before pulling the baseball cap he’s wearing low enough to obscure his face, palms sweating.
Before he can think to turn around and forget this whole endeavour, there’s a voice somewhere in the shadows behind him.
“Bi-Curious Guy..?”Ippo bristles; the man is clearly trying to disguise his voice. Maybe he should do the same…
“Gay and Experienced..?” he says in answer, his heartbeat picking up. The other man grunts in what sounds like affirmation, and the hairs on the back of Ippo’s neck stand up when he hears a pair of footsteps casually closing in.

Wrote this... 'thing' at 1:30 in the morning and I dunno, I kinda liked it at that moment (?) so I'll just leave it here.
Basically: Miyata and Ippo do “things.” As they should.
Or at least they BEGIN to.
The title itself could be a spoiler.
