The film closely follows the lives of two child fighters, 12-year-old Max and 13-year-old Ava, who both dream of becoming the next big thing in MMA. We see them train tirelessly and make sacrifices while their parents and trainers put immense pressure on them to succeed.
Max comes from a broken home and uses MMA as an outlet for his anger and frustration, but his father's constant criticism and the pressure to provide financial support to his family take a toll on him. Ava, on the other hand, is the daughter of a former MMA fighter and wants to prove herself to her father and the world.
Despite their personal struggles, both Max and Ava show incredible skill and determination in the cage, but their competition is fierce. They face opponents who are often bigger and more experienced than them, and injuries start to pose a real threat to their future.
As the national championship approaches, tensions rise and emotions come to a head. Max and Ava must grapple with their own fears and self-doubt, while their families and coaches push them harder than ever before. The film culminates in a nail-biting showdown at the championship, where both kids must give it their all to achieve their dreams.
