all these people talking shit about feeling sorry for the kids, theirs more to life than money and big shiny cars and stuff. these kids are fighting for their country not their bank manager. long live the revolution.................
The best video that you can see " THE LIFE OF A CHAMPION" those kids are poor some of them with no family but the have the power and the strength to fight for the only love they have. BOXING
what saddens me most is that them poor kids are fighting for a very faded future, nothing is secure in cuba, and they are still making this kids believe that it is actually worth the while to physically and mentally maltreat yourself. the kids do not know the truth and they are the most easy ones to brainwash, they are not the guilty ones and they should be given the opportunity to achieve something good in their future not lies and repression
I grew up in Germany, as a kid, I was too spoiled .... my father was two times national champion in the bantam weight in germany and was in olympia ..... he had a tough childhood ... at 18 I started to boxing and I quickly realized that it's too late .... I've missed all the important years
i first read this before watching the video...and i thought u were just making a joke..and me being cuban didnt find it funny ..but HUGE LOLLL!!!! those kids are too much too smart.... so funny when he said it....coach wishes he was in Florida too!! plss!!!! LOLL
HERMOSO DOCUMENTAL , lastima que el suenio de esos ninios solo se quede en suenio , porque aun cuando lleguen a cumplir sus suenios , sus logros no pasan de ahi .
@TheUKConman In a country that has Boxing as their national sport.... yeah I think they can complain as much as they want Cuba has over 50 yrs of Boxing Religion ..... bro if u and I were in that training camp either u or me would be complaining like crazy.
@gusto1978 I wouldn't at that age as all i wanted to was box and would have loved an opportunity lke that to further my trade now i would winge untill i was in better shape.
they do go pretty hard with them considering their age BUT there is not a single kid in Cuba taking crack and robbing drug dealers for a living so maybe it's not such a bad idea...
cristian's father was teasing his son, which is why the lad smirked. the dad was a better boxer than his son will probably ever be too but that wasn't really what he was getting at. saw the lad box a few months ago, well an interclub sparring sort of thing, but i'm waiting to get the video off a mate.
i lived in cuba for a year pal & have spent time there on other occasions, yes there is crime like in any other country of the world (although it is a very safe country with very little serious crime) but NO there are not any kids taking crack and robbing drug dealers for a living. i totally and utterly do not accept that.
i won't call you a fool but i do think that you misconstrued what i said and probably have no actual real knowledge of the country.
VIVA CUBA
