The Fighter (Graded)

Dicky was once known as "The Pride of Lowell" having gone the distance with the world champion Sugar Ray Leonard. However, after losing that fight, like the town of Lowell, Dicky's fallen on hard times. His boxing days are behind him & his life has become shattered by drug abuse. Younger brother Micky, meanwhile, has become the family's fighter & fading hope for a champion. Despite all of his work, Micky's career is failing losing fight after punishing fight. This is the true story of two brothers who, against all the odds, come together to train for a historic title bout that will attempt to unite their fractured family, redeem their pasts &, at last, maybe give their hard-luck town what it's been waiting for: pride.

Grade: A
