Alvey, a fighter turned trainer, is struggling to make ends meet with his gym while dealing with the problems of his two adult sons. Jay, the eldest, is a free-spirited drug addict who's fallen out of the MMA lifestyle thanks to his many benders. Nate, the youngest, is a promising fighter with a big secret: his homosexuality. As this family navigates their difficulties, only the pounding of fists in the ring will remain the same.
