Plot Summary: "Bleed for This" is the incredible true story of one of the most inspiring and unlikely comebacks in sports history. Miles Teller ("Whiplash, "Divergent") stars as Vinny “The Pazmanian Devil” Pazienza, a local Providence boxer who shot to stardom after winning two world title fights. After a near-fatal car accident leaves Vinny with a broken neck, he is told he may never walk again. Against all odds and doctor’s orders, renowned trainer Kevin Rooney (Aaron Eckhart) agrees to help Vinny return to the ring just a year after the accident for what could be the last fight of his life.

I don't like boxing, but I love boxing movies. This film was awesome. Miles Teller is one of the best in the business right now. I just realized he was in the Footloose remake, but I won't hold that against him.

The soundtrack was fantastic as well.

I used to love watching Paz box. Duran as well. Some great fights back in the day.
