The Cabbagetown Kid

1982, 35 min 14 sec 

 

Abstract
After 49 years, Canada's first gold medal for amateur boxing was won by Shawn O'Sullivan, who trains at the Cabbagetown Boxing and Youth Centre. The film follows Shawn as he prepares himself physically and mentally for the World Cup of Boxing tournament, and looks at his relationships with his father, his trainer and coach, and the club, all of whom are an integral part of his success. The climax of the film is the bout between Shawn and Armando Martinez of Cuba, in which Shawn won the Gold Medal, that was described by telecasters as "the best amateur bout in the last twenty years."
