Must be based on another film, i think champ is a true story and he fatelly dies in the changing room at the end.
Maybe a fictional film his name was Billy Flynn
I know that Deniro.
THE CHAMP was originally made in the 30's with Jackie Cooper as the kid, then re-made in the late 70's with Jon Voight and Ricky Schroeder. I'm not sure who it was based on, if anyone.
