Blast is Mumen Rider.

Somehow, he lost his abilities a few years ago (The same abilities that Saitama miraculously acquired during 'training') and despite losing his powers he still strives to be a hero as Mumen Rider Yeah, this is indeed mostly speculation.

Don't get me wrong, I would also like Mumen Rider to be powerful, but I think there is basicaly no evidence nor service to the story and it's concept by Mumen Rider being the old Blast and litteraly no one noticing.

Also, Mumen Rider looks way too young.

The only thing that might be interesting with the idea in my opinion is that we mightget some sort of law of succession where one and only one can be the "One Punch Man".

Plus, Blast having Saitama's powers always felt weird to me as an idea because of his name, which is a weird one to have if you deal in punches (and perhaps kicks).
