 Marty has plans: he wants to open a boxing training camp in Utah for inner-city kids from LA. He s also got a problem: he s witnessed a Mob murder, so a local boss wants to ensure that Marty doesn t talk. The boss s plan is Marty s destiny. But Marty, like the boxer he used to be, wants to fight back against fate. He goes to Lena, his girlfriend, but she s had it with his unreliability; his sister, a dancer at a strip club, is done lending him money. He still talks a great game, but his Utah plans may be the pipe dream of a punch-drunk guy on his way out. He seeks out Lena for a last shot. Is there any way the sweet but simple Marty can avoid his destiny?
