"Bam Bam" Daniels's father raised him to be a ferocious MMA fighter. Believing that it's the only way out of poverty, he embraces and dominates Detroit's underground cage-fighting scene. But the opportunity to attend a prestigious school causes him to rethink his choices. Despite a sensationalized portrayal of the inner-city, it is a fast-paced, gritty story told with brutally vivid language.
