Re: Child Boxing: Exploitation or Necessary?
Yeah, do you remember when they show a fight and one of the girls loses? Afterwards, her mother tells her she can't come home. It was so sad. The dude filming the documentary got some footage after the fight and the girl was in a secluded area, crying. 8 years old, man it broke my freaking heart. When I'm working out, it takes a lot to feel any sort of emotion because of the whole good hormone release. But I was running while watching this and I felt like crumbling right there. Anyway, since she lost the fight, she had to go around asking the audience for tips like out of pity. I missed something he said right after that. Something about the equivalent of what a 'sexual' entertainer in the West would do; I'm really hoping he didn't say that she has to go around asking people if they would like her services or something because that would just be sick.
