Jake, full of anger after his father's death, is just starting to find a place for himself at his new Orlando high school - until Ryan, head of an underground MMA fight club, picks Jake out as a prime opponent. After being trounced by Ryan in front of the entire school, Jake begins training under the firm, moral guidance of a MMA master, where he learns how to fight... and how to avoid a fight. But it becomes obvious that a rematch will be inevitable if Jake wants to stop Ryan and his bullying, once and for all.
This teen drama swaps typical high school cliques for the brutal, sweat-soaked world of underground MMA. Instead of a predictable bully arc, the story focuses on the disciplined technicality required to survive a cage fight.
