Short description

The inspirational story of World Champion Boxer Vinny Pazienza, who after a near fatal car crash, which left him not knowing if he'd ever walk again, made one of sports most incredible comebacks.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Miles Teller himself nearly died in a car accident once, and a year later, his friend died in a traffic accident. Since then, the actor has worn a green bracelet in memory of his friend, inscribed with "Buckle Up for Bo." The bracelet can be seen in all films featuring Teller, unless it contradicts the on-screen image.
  • Jimmy Burfield Jr. plays his father, James Burfield Sr.
  • Miles Teller trained in boxing with coach Darrell Foster, who has worked with fighters such as Sugar Ray Leonard (one of the strongest boxers of the 1980s). Foster also prepared Will Smith for his role in Michael Mann's sports drama "Ali" (2001).
  • This is Ben Younger's first film in 11 years. His previous work was the romantic comedy "My Best Lover" (2005) with Uma Thurman and Meryl Streep.
  • According to director Ben Younger, filming took 24 days, and the film's budget was $6 million.
  • Professional boxer Edwin Rodriguez, who played Roberto Duran, knocked out the fight choreographer during the filming of the final fight. It was the last day of filming, so the scene turned out much shorter than planned.
