Season 2 • Episode 8
LatestThe big fight between Little Dog and L'il Turk has arrived but all is not going according to plan. The family tries to cover up Devereaux's mysterious departure.
Pro-boxer Tommy “Little Dog” Ross, the favourite to win a Championship Belt, has a world-class meltdown in the middle of the fight and walks out of the ring. We meet up with him again five years later, living a life of general self-destruction, when he is caught on video in a bar fight, prompting old rival Rico “Havoc” St. George to challenge him to a title rematch. Tommy struggles to get the noise of his strong-willed family out of his head in order to make the decision of whether or not to get back in the ring.
