Come Out Fighting (2015)
A classic tale of love and survival in the brutal world of bare knuckle fighting. Powerfully told and acted by a wonderful ensemble of actors. Jazz and Gia each struggle to survive in their "other-side-of-the-tracks worlds. He 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 maintain a normal existence while trying to corral her out of control brother "Fast Buck" Freddie who only dreams of a big and easy score. Freddie stumbles into Jazz and they form an offbeat bond. Freddie sets them up and Jazz knocks them down. This is not the answer Jazz is looking for until he meets Gia. Then his world is turned upside down.

WOW. I watch a lot of Indie Films, had the pleasure of seeing this film Saturday night. I haven't stopped thinking about it. Real cool fighting - realistic as well...A throw back feel good film, great characters and story. All the acting spot on, especially the 3 leads they were just really good. The plot was so believable and so real. It's hard to imagine how anyone with more acting experience could have done a better job! "Fast Buck Freddie" & "Gia" were amazing and so believable in this film & WOW....Joe Ricci as "Jazz", his look and his voice, how is this guy not in bigger films?? I can't believe Ricci isn't a star already in his own rite! It wasn't without some minor technical issues but overall I guess good films can be made on a modest budget after all.
