With a record filled with more losses than wins, Steve knows he must make a drastic decision to salvage his remaining relevance and financial stability.
When he receives an unexpected offer to become a sparring partner for an emerging boxing champion, Steve sees it as his last chance to be a part of the boxing world that he loves so dearly. Despite the evident risk, he willingly accepts the opportunity, hoping to prove his mettle and rediscover his long-lost glory.

His wife, Rachel, and daughter, Emma, have always supported his boxing aspirations, but they now question the toll his pursuit of relevance is taking on their family. Steve's journey to redeem himself both in and out of the ring forces him to realize the invaluable love and support he has been neglecting.
