Plot: Prolific actor-stuntman Conrad Palmisano directed this average action-thriller about the owner of an inner-city gym. Earl (Paul Coufos) happens to also be a skilled fighter, and when he is pressured by real-estate developers to close the gym, he fights in order to save it. Former Saturday Night Live regular Tony Rosato co-stars with Irene Cara, who sings a cover version of She Works Hard for the Money, as well as portraying Earl's love interest, Simone. ~ Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide

Busted up in more then one way.
Added 10/17/2000

This movie is a story about a small time boxer who decide to fight for charity, even after his girlfriend instisted not to, he did with the promise of never boxing again. It's also about having a love for something and coming to a crossroad with it . Irene Cara, plays a mother and night club singer who has to decide on a singing career or her family. Paul Coufos, plays the boxer and father who also has to decide on a boxing career or his family. The movie really never goes anywhere the direction is slow and the movie itself is low budget which makes it really seem dated. What I do like about the movie are its two lead actors, who do an okay job. I also like the music Cara, wrote and sang for this movie.
