Both Series are coming of age fighting stories where the fights are surreal fights and a road to become the best by training, while dealing with friendship, the pain of losing, and the spoils of winning... 

Ashita no Joe is one of the manga that inspired Masami Kurumada into being a mangaka,Ring ni Kakero is like a homenage to Tetsuya.The draft is similar between them.Joe and Ryuji looks alikes,and sometimes act the same way,both was created with a bunch of orphan kids,and trained by an old guy.The major diference is that in Ring ni Kakero we have special attacks,not really many but there are people that say that RnK is a boxing Saint Seiya(also made by Kurumada)the fact that Ryuji have the same desing that Seiya and most of Kurumada's main characters just reforces this argunment,even if RnK was made before Saint Seiya.It's not many special attacks many have just one,it's more to give something more and new to it.If you don't the special attacks don't read Ring ni Kakero and go read a more real boxing manga,even if this means losing a great series. read more 

Ring ni Kakero could be called Saint Seiya boxing,it's by the same author,Takane Ryuji is the first character to have Kurumada's protagonists face,the same character archetypes,impossible to be real attacks and even Greek gods.
