"Something in us does not allow us to accept defeat.... and not to accept defeat is the triumph of life"
The Last Champion is about Ronnie, a young Asian man brought up in a quaint English town called Talkcheese. After barely leaving his teens he finally comes to realize that he is destined to pursue his ultimate dream in the hazardous world of professional boxing, striving to become the "The greatest Asian heavyweight boxing champion of the world". Not everyone has the fire-power, resilience, patience, stoutness character and guts to believe in their own dreams. When others are against his aspirations, Ronnie has the motivation, belief, self-discipline and conviction to keep his vision alive and kicking, or more appropriately punching. Abstract and intuitive intelligence comes naturally to him, he is unusually perceptive and highly sensitive. The clash of right and wrong pervades the battlefield of his mind as the guiding metaphor for his ambition. He is completely hooked on the gladiator of all sports with single-minded zeal and passion.
It is written in Ronnie's destiny that success won't kiss his feet easily. A young man who has never thought about his future in conventional terms, he learns to survive a gruelling journey of life's ups and downs lined with a bountiful share of street brawls, underground fighting and then the "making it happen" opportunity to get noticed in the boxing world. On his way up, he literally experiences buckets of blood, sweat and tears, searching deep in his heart and soul to prove his detractors wrong. What makes his ambition more difficult and almost impossible to achieve is the fact that Ronnie isn't black or white: he is Asian. In the entire history of heavyweight boxing, there has never ever been an Asian champion in this dinosaur of weight categories... YET! Could it be Ronnie who claims the richest prize in sport: does he have the mettle, skill, grit and determination to be the first heavyweight champion representing the vast Asian communities in this noble art? The biggest fight of his life, the championship in Las Vegas is now due...So!
"Ladies & Gentlemen....let's get ready to TUUMBLE! Prepare yourselves for an explosive and shocking knock-out of an ending to this moving chronicle and unfolding drama of life"
