Rafael Trejo is a boxing gym in the oldest district of Havana, probably the city of the World with more box champions. Boys begin their training very young, many of them have no shoes or even enough food, but they keep going to the gym every day.
Maybe some will be champions. The rest, at least, will be a little more away from the dangers of the street.
Among them is Antonio Beitia, the old Munanga, a former sparring of the legend Jose Legra. He lives in the gym, blind and prematurely aged, only feed thanks to the mother of the boxer kids.
