The have gloves will travel fighters who will take on tough opponents - never expected to win, and always capable of causing an upset, but the odds and the business of the sport are always against them. We look at how boxing positively impacts not only those participating, but also their wider communities - the sport gives back as much as it takes. From there the film takes an entirely different direction after The English Title Eliminator fight between Scott Westgarth and undefeated knockout specialist Dec Spelman. We see the highlights of the brutal fight that changed Dec's and the Westgarth family's lives forever. After Scott wins the fight on a points decision, he sadly lost the fight for his life the following morning in hospital form a suspected brain injury. We see first hand the devastating impact of extreme tragedy on those involved. Boxing is a family, and in difficult times, family support each other. We build to an exhilarating and dramatic conclusion as Dec is entered into the English Title fight and is triumphant in winning to fulfil his promise to the Westgarth family.
