Asia Fitness Today presents Shadowboxers, a short film that brings together Lyon, Faouzi, and Raoul – all from different cultural, religious and economic backgrounds, who share one common ground. A relentless drive in their daily routine. They strive to be the best that they can be, pushing past the punches life throws at them.
A champion doesn’t become a champion in the ring.
He’s merely recognised.
His becoming happens during his daily routine.
