Meet Charlie Boy: skinny, small, looks like a strand of spaghetti. He and his best friend, Rocky the Lower Hutt Chief, are good at getting into trouble together. But when Charlie and Rocky get into a bit too much trouble, Charlie is sent to live with his dad in the middle of nowhere, and there's not much to do in a small town ... unless your dad happens to be a retired MMA fighter. As Charlie learns the ins and outs of mixed-martial arts, he sees an opportunity to redeem himself - a martial arts tournament one that will declare the best fighter and the best fighting style, and it has a prize of One Million Dollars. Only it's not easy to make a comeback, and there's more to MMA than the fight. Charlie is about to find out just how far he's willing to go to get to the top.
