In this 'fascinating' (Time Out New York) documentary, filmmaker Bert Marcus explores the battle for the American Dream through the lives and careers of legendary boxers Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield and Bernard Hopkins.

Featuring clips from classic bouts and observations from journalists, educators, and boxing fans that include Mark Wahlberg, Denzel Washington, Ron Howard, Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson, Spike Lee and Mary J. Blige, discover the sometimes disturbing truths behind the controversial sport where the fight for glory is challenged only by the fight to survive.
