The brain of a five-year-old child in 110 kilos of muscles: Pino is an immense dumb boxer. He has the build to win, but he is better off to lose. His mother made him the boxer who falls on command, for the joy of those in Rome who manipulate gambling. Pino obeys his mother and she obeys clandestine bookmakers in a perfect mechanism. A mechanism that jams when Pino decides for the first time that he wants to win.
