!Tropes for the film:
* HardHead: Jimmy Horn claims that a punch to the top of the head will do more damage to the fist than the head in a bare-knuckle brawl. In his fight with Tommy, he tilts his head forward before several punches so Tommy injures his hands on his skull.
* IWantYouToMeetAnOldFriendOfMine: Creator/VonteSweet and Gooding previously worked together on ''Film/BoyzNTheHood''.
* OpponentInstruction: The plot has the BigBad, a corrupt trainer, give some helpful hints to a fighter. "Make them think you're strong when you're weak". "Make them think you're weak when you're strong". These are all given an IronicEcho when the fighter he gave this advice to uses it to [[HoistByHisOwnPetard thrash him in the ring]].
