If you loved ROCKY you will love Joe Ricci in
COME OUT FIGHTING!
A classic tale of love and survival in the brutal world of bare knuckle fighting. Powerfully told and acted by the formidable Joe Ricci, a spitting image of the young Sylvester Stallone and a wonderful ensemble of actors. Jazz and Gia each struggle to survive in their "other-side-of-the-tracks worlds. Jazz desperately looks for a way out of the dark past that haunts him and the violence he faces daily as a bare knuckle fighter. Gia leads a bitter and lonely life trying to corral her out of control brother "Fast Buck" Freddie who only dreams of a big and easy score. Along the way they find love, hope and most importantly themselves. This is a feel good throw back to the 70's and 80's with a lot of heart. A fight movie the whole family can watch.
