WIDE ANGLE gains intimate access to the Havana Boxing Academy on the outskirts of Cuba's capital. There, from the tender age of nine, boys hand-picked as future Olympians are molded into soldiers of the ring. They live and train at the academy with a single purpose: to bring home Olympic Gold. Victory is Your Duty follows the boys' dramatic path over eight months of training, schooling and boarding as they build up to the biggest event of their lives -- the annual National Boxing Championships.

Ricky i knew that was coming from Ricky hatton fan. No offence but look at what floyd did to hatton (who keeps his hands up)
I just fell more speed and more power whens its coming from down and plus most of fighters keep theirs hands up sothe boxers got used to that and they block most of the punch but when it comes from different angle they dont know wat to do.
Keep working on that stuff. But u gotta learn to punch too, u newer get points for sliping punches or blocking u gota hit em back. I mean once u slip u gotta make him pay.
we were playin soccer outside, just neighbors bassicly. And i didnt speak engilish well but i was just playin around with some kids. Then one of them say to something to my little bro. I just got mad run at him throw one and two and the guy was just knock out cold. And everybody was like WTF just happen. I was like he was swearing to my little bro. Then it turns out he wasnt swearing at all.
.. Can you give me some more background on this?
That video was shootin in chicago world champinship. Dimitry is no1 right now at 69kg. Going to Beejing 2008.
I'v been boxing for while now. So to me boxing is like school, amatuer record is ur diplomas, Making the national team is like getting a schoolarship. and going to olympics iz like graduating as doctor or professer. Then ull make the big bucks in pro (life).
Hopefully i will achive those dreams one day.
