I just watched this last night and after some thought, I think Frankie ended up buying the diner. I remember when he and Maggie were there enjoying the lemon pie, Frankie asking out loud how much a place like that would go for - as if he would consider buying it (he did mention earlier in the movie how he had some money put away). I think to him Ira's Diner was special since it was for Maggie and they had that nice moment together there. I tend to think after all he went thru with Maggie with the training and the matches up until what happened to her (and after Big Willie left him), he was "done" with boxing and just wanted a quiet life away from it all and to be close to her in some way - and buying that diner she went to with her dad all the time was sort of like this "link" to her for him so he could always remember her. He may have also bought a cabin in the woods as well - something else he had talked about with her. He never mentioned the diner or cabin to Scrap, which is why he had no idea where he went.
