As Hezekiah sharpens his new skills, he comes up against Sugar Goodson, played by Stephen Graham ("Boiling Point," "Boardwalk Empire"), a seasoned and dangerous boxer and the two are soon locked into an intense rivalry that spills out way beyond the ring.

Steven Knight, Creator, Writer, Executive Producer, said, "The love and care that went into this thrilling production is evident on screen from the first moment. What makes the story we tell all the more compelling is that it is based on the lives of real people who lived extraordinary lives in extraordinary times."
