    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Boxing and kickboxing champion Lucia Rijker, who also played the part of Billie "The Blue Bear" in this movie, was Hilary Swank's boxing coach.
    • Goofs
      The ref crosses his arms in front of the fighter when he's deducting a point.

      This signals the fight is over not a point deduction.
    • Quotes
      • Frankie Dunn: It wasn't your fault. I was wrong to say that.
      • Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: You damn right. I found you a fighter. You made her the best fighter she could be.
      • Frankie Dunn: I killed her.
      • Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris: Don't say that. Maggie walked through that door with nothing buts guts. No chance in the world of being what she needed to be. It was because of you that she was fighting the championship of the world. You did that. People die everyday, Frankie - mopping floors, washing dishes and you know what their last thought is? I never got my shot. Because of you Maggie got her shot. If she dies today you know what her last thought would be? I think I did all right.
