Tye Gallagher is a man on the road to fame and fortune. Born in the ghetto, he’s found a path to success through boxing. Blessed with an iron chin and rib-breaking body shot, he’s put up an undefeated record, and managed to fight the reigning champion to a draw. He’s preparing himself for his reign as heavyweight champ, and few think anything can stop him.
But fate is fickle, and Gallagher’s first loss sends the man careening into a downward spiral. Stripped of the illusions of fame, Tye finds himself facing a failing marriage, shifty management, unforgiving media, and an inner rage that has dogged him for most of his life. Lacking the security of a stable upbringing, he finds himself in a battle he’s completely unprepared for. The only friend he has left is, strangely enough, his former rival.

And without any real examples to fall back on, it is the fight of Tye’s life to see if he can become anything more than just another also-ran…
