 Rating:  - DING, DING, DING... We Have a Winner!!! Viewer Knocked Out!Another Boxing Film? Nope. Not at all!!! Going into this film blindfolded, I was immediately drawn into the action, story and characters.

Make no mistake, this is no "Rocky" clone. Though I suppose it could be mildly disturbing to those with a not-so-open mind, I found it to be a poignant and passionate tale. Tommy and his trainer, Marty both have painful pasts. Both could be considered rebels for very different reasons. I found both actors, J.P. Davis and Eddie Jones to be up for the task of these ...
