With the help of veteran promoter, Arliss King and the guidance of a former champ, Ed embarks on the come back of a lifetime. When Ed starts winning and with his popularity soaring, he draws the attention of an unscrupulous fight promoter, White Ferguson.

With a new found confidence he goes on the road leaving his pregnant wife at home.

Haunted by guilt and regret, Ed turns away from boxing and returns to a path of self-destruction. Out of shape and out of luck, he agrees to one final fight. The house is packed, the fans are cheering, the bell rings as Ed steps into the ring to fight the demons of his past to reclaim his dignity as a man and a champion.
