About this spot
The Kamogawa Boxing Gym in Hajime no Ippo is fictional, but JB Sports Boxing Gym is a real gym chaired by the series' creator, George Morikawa. Founded in 1993, it has a statue of Takamura on its roof. The gym trains professionals and aspiring professionals only and has no fitness membership, so it is not a facility that welcomes casual visitors or tours. If you come to see the building from outside, please be considerate of the boxers training there and of the surrounding neighbourhood.
Access
