It was better than "The Wrestler", and I guess that's all I really care about. This movie is basically about some legendary boxer (in his home town) who had a fairly decent showing against Sugar Ray Leonard, but couldn't put him away. His little brother is trying to make a name for himself, while battling his way outside of his big brother's legendary shadow. In the end, it's a fairly standard "Rocky" style movie, but with some pretty decent characters giving the movie a slightly more unique feel. In the end, it wasn't a great movie by any means, but it probably deserves a "B+" at least.
