| Description: | BOYS WILL BE BOXERS Young boys learn to box - cute and funny item. United Kingdom Little boys (ages 5-9?) wearing baggy shorts, sleeveless shirts and boxing gloves sit in rows on the floor of a gym; they all raise their arms in unison then drop them bringing the gloves down on their legs. The boys now standing work on their boxing moves, jumping forward and back while holding their arms in defensive position. Closer shot boys practicing punches. MS boy stands w/ his gloved hands leaning on the rope and jumps up and down. MS 2 boys sparring while others sit around edge of ring watching. MLS one of the small boxers sits in the corner leaning back and looking tired while 2 older boys help out - one massages his legs while the other fans him with a towel. Shot from above looking down at ring where all the boys are running around fighting each other in what looks like a chaotic brawl. Closer shot of this from beside ring: boys all punching each other wildly, some falling down, man in trousers and sweater also in ring. | |
