\u201cChristy Martin (Sweeney) never imagined life beyond her small-town roots in West Virginia \u2014 until she discovered a knack for punching people. Fueled by grit, raw determination, and an unshakable desire to win, she charges into the world of boxing under the guidance of her trainer and manager-turned-husband,\u00a0Jim\u00a0(Foster),\u201d the film\u2019s synopsis reads. \u201cBut while Christy flaunts a fiery persona in the ring, her toughest battles unfold outside it\u2014confronting family, identity, and a relationship that just might become life-or-death. Based on remarkable true events, Christy Martin\u2019s story is one of resilience, courage, and the fight to reclaim one\u2019s life.\u201d<\/p>\n
The trailer shows off the physical transformation Sweeney went through to play Martin in the film. We also see scenes of her in the boxing ring taking punches and throwing swings.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think I found my thing,\u201d Sweeney\u2019s Martin says in the trailer. \u201cI bet most people go their entire lives and they don\u2019t even know what their thing is.\u201d<\/p>\n
