Coming off the back of a loss in her last fight, Northern Ireland’s premier mixed martial artist Leah McCourt embarks on an intense training camp in a quest to return to winning ways. This documentary follows Leah from the outset of fight-camp, as she manages the pressures of a gruelling training regime, media commitments, and the physical and mental aspects of competing at the highest level of mixed martial arts.

We also get a first-hand insight into Leah’s life on the road and the challenges that brings whilst combining her duties of being mum to daughter, Isabella. We meet Leah’s family and teammates, including ‘Meatball’ Molly McCann, who gives us an insight into her life, both in and out of the Bellator cage. Leah details what the world of mixed martial arts means to her, the highs and lows of being a high-profile fighter, her goals for the future and how it feels to be an inspiration, not only to her daughter Isabella, but for every young girl striving to achieve their ambitions.

The documentary culminates in Leah’s return to the cage for a high-profile bout against Dayana Silva at Bellator 285 in Dublin’s 3Arena. With behind-the-scenes access, viewers experience the demands placed upon Leah during fight camp, from making weight to media appearances, and to the intense moments backstage in the seconds before stepping into a packed arena full of fight fans cheering her on.
