We have obtained the following poster and plot synopsis for the upcoming film Fight Night thanks to our good friends over at moviesonline:
Michael Dublin is a full-time con man working the underground boxing circuit. A lonely drifter on the run from a past best forgotten, he moves from one scam to another, leaving a trail of enemies in his wake. Dublin invents his best scam yet when he meets Katherine Paker, a female fighter with the skills to take down a man twice her size. In a scheme Dublin calls “fight-rigging, in reverse”, the two hit the road working fights in seedy basement bars, abandoned warehouses, and backwoods county fairs. But Dublin’s shady past catches up with them and suddenly the stakes are higher – and more dangerous – than they’d ever imagined.
This film reminds me of Diggstown, but with a female boxing hero. Boxing movies are good stuff, especially when they end up in illegal pit fighting situations. A bad ass and a quick talking huckster is a fantastic combination for a film like this, and I look forward to checking it out.
I have a soft spot for females that dispense violence in film.
