    The true story of Howard Winstone is both remarkable and compelling. As a young man he was one of the biggest rising talents in amateur boxing until a factory accident crushed his fingers, the tips of three were amputated meaning that hand could no longer make a proper fist! His father wouldnt let him gripe and he was soon punching a coal bag to keep his spirits up. Under a new trainer, Eddie Thomas, he started to learn a new style and once again rise up victoriously through the amateur ranks. He had completely changed the way he boxed and from there remarkably went on to become Champion of Britain and Champion of Europe

    Erik Morales is in it:good

    great I enjoyed it. I saw it at the premiere in Cardiff at the WBC Night of Champions and it got a standing ovation from all the fighters that were there.

    I've heard it dreadful.

    No flow to it because they kept adding scenes just to include real life boxers.

    Someone posted the trailer to it a while back. It looked atrocious.
