We watched this movie in AP lit class these past 3 days. Besides the fact the fact that its full of mature/adult stuff so I wouldn't recommend you watch it, but it evokes lots of emotion.

IMO he doesn't deserve sympathy, however since it's in the boxer's perspective you actually feel sad for him at the end.

I also felt bad after he beat up Joe Pesci, who in the movie is his brother. Great guy that Pesci.
