The film starts in New York where he trains at Gleasons Gym in Brooklyn. It follows the Dutch fighter up to and including his first fight in the Netherlands. His so called "homecoming fight". In between his preparations he has to deal with a number of issues that have cumulated from the past. Tuur is a controversial person in the Netherlands due to a history of domestic violence of which he speaks in interviews in the film. Will his past catch up with him? By showing the ins and outs that will lead to his first "homecoming fight" in combination with the interviews as a counterpoint, the film has a dramatic unravelling effect, which not only reveals if Tuur wins or looses, but also shows an insight in his motivation and historic background.
