    My favorite part is when he first walks into the gym and opened up his money tin, the coach didn't even count it before throwing him the shorts. The coach saw the fire in his eyes and gave him a chance. The coach is a real MVP.

    Powerful moment at 0:13 with the young girl and the homeless guy. She is young, full of life and holding her dream in the form of a notebook. He is older, bloodied but unbowed by his circumstances. He still has his dream with what little money he has. They still recognize each other; they still are looking for something better.
    It doesn't matter where you are in life and how old you are. If you are still breathing and able, you can achieve what your mind conceives. May God bless you all.

Contains so many important truths about boxing: how it's a powerful response to life's cruel realities, how it can give you the energy to raise you from powerlessness, and the extraordinary kindness you will encounter while learning the violent art.

    Pierce Egan, a famous boxing writer from the 19th century wrote: " No men are more subject to the caprice or changes of fortune than pugilists. Victory brings them fame, riches, and patrons. Their bruises are not heeded in the smiles of success. Basking in the sunshine of prosperity, their lives pass on pleasantly until defeat comes and reverses the scene. Then, covered with aches and pains, distressed in mind and body, assailed by poverty, wretchedness, and misery; their friends forsake them. The towering fame expired and no longer the plaything of fashion, they fly to inebriation for relief and a premature end puts a period to their misfortunes."

    This is the first video i saw about boxing ...
    Thirteen years ago, I started practicing martial arts because I was bullied at school.
    Now.....
    boxing helped me in my life. :)

    I remember watching this video a few years ago. I cried and I am right now. I have a dream to become a boxer. I wanted to box when I was 21 but my family told me that it was too expensive so I let it go for a while but now I'm 25 and I still have that dream of being a boxer it never left me. I know I can do it I just gotta pray and be determined and give it my all. It's been tough these last few years for me. All I need is for someone to give me a chance.

    Wow, glad this video is still up; I first saw it in 2014, and still am amazed at how the man portrayed here went from homeless to contender through sheer will, grit and determination. He had nowhere to go but up, and was fueled by the hunger to achieve a goal......

    Man I remember watching this like everyday in undergrad. Wanted to go to med school and become a doctor so fucking bad. I worked my fucking ass off. I sacrificed so many things. I just kept telling myself it would be worth it in the end. I pushed through the hard times. I wanted to quit so badly. 6 fucking years later I graduated med school and I am now in emergency medicine. Holy fuck this brings back so many memories of the grind. Was it worth it in the end? Fuck yes. I'm the happiest i've ever been. To anybody out there going through a tough time. Keep fucking grinding, keep persevering towards your goals and your dreams. You really want to achieve something? You better work your fucking ass off. No matter what that goal is, you'll be able to achieve it. This video is such a fucking throwback.

    I cried watching this because I can relate.No, I’m not homeless.I’m just a single father dealing with a baby mama drama situation.I’m the one taking care of my kid.I was a goal oriented person and an achiever and I was on my way to the top with my career/job but I had to quit cause of racism and my son was born.I took full responsibility for him cause I can’t trust his mother cause she got some issues.I’m a fan of boxing and never in my wildest imagination thought about fighting until 2 months ago when I decided that I need to fight back when life hits you.I need to fight so I can have enough money to fight for my son’s custody, I want to raise awareness and and put up a charity for Orphans all over the world and stray dogs.I remember when I walked in my gym and met my coach for the first time and told him about my situation.Now I’m just waiting for my debut fight.Will show this to my coach.Hope all of your dreams will come true! God bless!

    The part where he is hustling by street fighting and making some dough as the clip transitions into the money slap and then the sound of the mitts meeting his punches is just pure poetry.
