In 1983, journeyman boxer Luis Resto beat previously undefeated Billy Collins Jr. so badly that Collins' face was left swollen and his vision permanently damaged, ending his career. The film reconstructs how trainer Panama Lewis removed padding from Resto's gloves before the fight, a tampering that went undetected until after the bout and that eventually sent both Lewis and Resto to prison. Interviews with Resto himself, decades later, sit alongside archival fight footage, contemporary news coverage, and accounts from people close to Collins, who died in a car crash less than a year after the fight, a death some in the boxing world still call a suicide. The film follows Resto's life after prison, his eventual admission of guilt, and the guilt he carries over Collins' downfall and death. It treats the scandal as more than sports trivia, using it to examine how a rigged fight altered two men's lives permanently, one through disgrace and one through ruin.
