I saw this when I was 11 years old, just after my parents divorced and my life turned to shit. I don't think I've ever cried so hard at a movie scene in my entire life...at least until The Elephant Man came out. Very powerful. Ricky Schroeder sure could make those tears work!

Still the saddest scene ive ever seen in a film to this day and the best bit of acting from such a young actor playing a sort of scene that play's with your emotions like that and can make you cry! Unbelievable ricky shroder never got an oscar!

I watched this movie at aged 9 and the ending was the only thing that helped me cry for my mothers passing when I was 7 years old I just couldn’t cry about losing her and gave me a relief.

If you don't tear up watching that, there is something seriously wrong with you.

Breaks your heart and makes you cry just like Rocky with Mick...

The kid played damn well, it made his death even more sad

Such an ending to a movie... always brings tears to my eyes!! Award winning acting

I was hunting for something that would help me cry over something I'd emotionally walled off; that little boy tore me to shreads, watch what you ask for. Superbly done, a scene for all time.

John Voight and Rick Schroeder were reunited again as father-and-son in the 1993 miniseries "Return To Lonesome Dove."

I seen this at the cinema when I was 8 years old all the grown ups were sobbing.

Jon Voight a truly amazing performance. The artistry in this movie is so beautiful

he won the fight but lost the war

Omg I've never seen an actor as good as he was, the way he cries 😢

It brought me to tears seen this scene from that beautiful film. Reminded me of my late father whom I've lost almost 7 years ago. He was a film projector back home, and I've seen this film before it was played in the cinemas. The story touched me so much as I've also lived with no mother around (divorced) and overseas... Miss you dad until the day we meet again.

Its imposible not to cry with this movie.

this scene should make all Daddy's clear....take care of you...if your gone to soon...your son cry like this. this scene have change my life.

Saddest film I have ever saw. Jeeeeesus.that kid deserved an Oscar for that

I haven't seen this since I was about 6 years old, avoiding it for years. I'm 40 in a few months and this is still the saddest thing I've seen since Freddie Mercury died.

ivan miyelani hey there, sorry for the late reply - I'm just seeing your post. I went to KZread but could not find any decent free version. The good news is they will let you watch the movie for only 2.99 and I think that is for 2 or 3 days access. Just type in "The Champ full movie 1979" and it will come up. Make sure to have a lot of kleenex ready!

I cry every time i watched this scene over and over, phenomenal acting from the kid Schroder

The movie that make me cry, I remember it´s so very sad but beautyful film

This was the first video we ever rented as a family. I think I was around ten years old. All of us sobbing out hearts out at this ending.

Fucking hell. Not seen this since around 84. I'm crying my eyes out here

Such an Amazing Performance by a very young Ricky Schroeder! I recall the first time I saw this movie & I was beside myself at this Point! I completely broke down in tears! Has to be The Saddest Moment in Movies, Ever!

I remember i was 10 years old when first scene this, i was in tears.... i screamed out...”this sux, i want to watch “Rocky”!!”

Breaks my heart. Reminds me of when my dad was struggling with suicide.

It's the part where Tj says "you gotta go sleep now", wow I was in floods of tears. Amazing little actor who truly showed how one kid can idolise his father

Comparisons are odious, especially when comparing a remake to the original that inspired it. Both are great.

Rick Schroeder is such an amazing child actor! This is his first ever movie appearance ever. 😭

Emotional scene hard not to cry to this.

Most incredible piece of child acting you'll ever see. Only other one that comes close was Natalie Portman in The Professional.

Timothy Joseph Flynn is such an emotional kid in this movie

Incredibly unbelievable acting of someone in.that age. Should have gotten an Oscar for that

Imagine if Billy won his title back before he died. Now, that would be Oscar worthy.

Indubitavelmente o melhor filme que tive o prazer de assistir várias vezes!!!

First time i watched this was when i was about 9-10 years old with my dad, who ive only seen cry twice in his life, and this had him walk out the room with tears. it did get me emotional too but i dont think i cried back then as i was more shocked and focusing if my dad was ok lol. now that ive come back to it about 14 years later with my father passing in early 2008 , i got only 56 seconds in and started bawling. but laughing at the same time cause i knew what this video would bring upon such emotion. but it brought back memories. now that ive google searched that this is literally the saddest ending of all time. sheesh

this scene cuts me deep like a dozen knives stabbing my heart

J'adore ce film mais introuvable en dvd en France, ça me rappel mon enfance lorsqu'ils le diffusaient a la tv, trop d'émotion avec ce film

i remember when i was a kid, i rented this video tape and bring back home. My father lost his cool when he knew it. What kind of stupid movie that u got? he said. But it turns out a different way after he watched this film. He likes it! And watched it all over again and again..

It made me cry man...imtelling you...

This boy broke my heart and ripped me apart I needed to cry so badly I cried with all my heart

Rocky is my favorite franchise of all time When Mickey died I cried like a baby and I've seen the movie a hundred times still gets me.. But I remember my dad saying watch the champ and you'll cry even more... My god was he right I can't watch this movie cause of this scene Movie is brilliant absolutely rivals rocky I would even say it's slightly better.. But seeing a kid react like that and that music that literally kills u inside..

When I was a kid the neighbors called me “silver spoons” as I looked like Ricky Schroeder; now they’d probably say I looked more like the Micheline Tire Man. 😳😒🙄

First movie scene that traumatised the fuck out of me as a kid. Best child actor I've ever seen.

One of the saddest endings ever, even after all these years.😭😭😭😭

Actors today can't even come close.

If this doesn't make you cry then you aren't a real man 😢

Voight’s acting in the final scene makes me think his character had gone blind shortly before his passing.

The most sad scene of all time.

Everyone is Georgie after watching this scene.

Champ is a great movie

This movie should have won every oscar ever

I can't stop crying like my tears about to come out

He cried so much he made me 😢

One of the saddest scenes in movie history

This movie gets me every time......great actors

it is said that no human alive on this planet who does not cry in the ending of this movie!

This was such a beautiful film such a tear jerker

Oh damn...this really tore my heart.

This movie made me cry

ET and this movie make me cry everytime . 😢

Hey, I still cry 😢

This is a masterpiece of a movie 🍿 this scene is so emotional.

Traumatising after all these years, even with zero recollection of anything else that happens in the film.

I hate this fuckin scene, it's brilliant but now having 2 twin teenage boys it shreds my ♥️, I have to go before them, I love them too much💕💓😘

Bella pelicula la vi de niña en el cine y llore

I can't believe my parents let me watch this when I was a kid.

Man stiil a great movie 🎥

Porque no lo pasan en español ? Es la mejor película que pude ver hace tanto años por favor gracias

What would make this even sadder is if t j behaved like Michael corleone from the godfather 3 that would make even the toughest person cry 😭

great movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the greatest movie l have ever seen and lm 16 plus one of the saddest Movie ever I watch it all the time with my dad and pop
