Im shocked i need help because i have a really good memory when it comes to movie titles but im now stuck.

All i can remember is this little boy crying and hugging his dad as he dies lying on this table (i think it was in a locker room). Also i might be wrong but i think his dad had just been in a karate or kungfu competion/fight

i know its a long shot but its been driving me mad i remember it was the first film to make me wanna cry (hey i was only young)pleeeeeeeease someone help i know its a hard one

sounds like it would be The Champ with a very young Ricky Schroeder.

It sounds exactly like 'The Champ'. The film ends in a locker room with the Dad dying, and the kid saying "Please wake him up... somebody wake him up..."

It's a well-known tearjerker film, and that particular scene is always on 'saddest movie moment' type lists.

This is DEFINATELY The Champ!

.. was the boy a little blonde haired boy?
... same as the dying father?

This was probably the first time i ever cried because of a movie.
