This is a film about one of the most revolutionary figures in sports
history: Daniel Mendoza, the man who changed boxing and celebrity
culture. Mendoza is the only Middleweight and

Heavyweight champion in
history. This son of Sephardi Jews became a living legend when he wrote
The Art of Boxing, a definitive manual that remains unsurpassed. Mendoza
devised strategy, footwork, and a volley of rapid-fire punches that
astonished his opponents and transformed the sport of pugilism from
street brawl to the “sweet science” of boxing.
