The Good Fight Club
A docu-series tracking the fortunes of a group of MMA fighters
From Bafta-award winning Century Films, The Good Fight Club follows the fortunes of a group of young Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) athletes fighting to make it from their South London gym to the glittering home of MMA: Las Vegas.
One of the fastest growing sports in the world, MMA is also one of the most lucrative, with its stars earning some of the highest salaries in sports - and the fighters of Team Underground want in on the action.
Each has a different reason for coming to the cage - Thomas dreams of being a role model for the deaf community, Shanelle hopes to create a better life for her 5 siblings, and for Aidan, fighting has helped him recover from anorexia - but in Team Underground they have found a community. Head coach Steve - whose kids are some of the most talented fighters in the gym - welcomes anyone willing to train hard, creating a family on and off the mat.
This dynamic and determined group have found camaraderie in the gym, but once they step into the cage, they leave their team behind and must face the ultimate battle alone.
The Good Fight Club is directed by Jack Retallack and Liz Biggs, who also serves as series producer. Brian Hill is the executive producer.
