Hello friends, I'm here with another interesting movie title Fighting and I would like to share you with here.

The movie is about Shawn trying to make a living by selling replicas on the streets of New York. He starts making a small fortune when a man introduces him to the world of underground street fighting.

It begins in Present day New York City: Shawn MacArthur (Channing Tatum) is a street hustler.

One day, while selling counterfeit goods at the corner of Radio City Music Hall, a group of young men attempt to force Shawn to relocate with his merchandise.

These boys work for Harvey Boarden (Terrence Howard), a ticket scalper who controls the corner. Shawn fights them off, but does not retain his money or products.

Later, Shawn sees Harvey and the men who stole his money in a café and confronts them. Harvey gives him his money back and offers him a chance in a 'winner takes all' fight for money.

Harvey sets up a meeting with his friend and rival, Martinez (Luis Guzmán). Shawn's first fight is at a Brooklyn church against a Russian.

He wins when he knocks the Russian into a water fountain.

Harvey takes Shawn to a club where he meets a waitress named Zulay (Zulay Henan), a single mother to whom Shawn had earlier tried to sell a fake Chinese Harry Potter book.

In the VIP area of the club, Shawn also meets Evan Hailey (Brain White), a professional fighter who used to be on the same college team as Shawn, and was coached by Shawn's father.

Shawn and Harvey leave after Evan and Shawn nearly get into a fight. Shawn's second fight is at the back of a store in the Bronx, against a much larger opponent.

The fight descends into chaos after interference from some of Harvey's crew when the opponent nearly chokes Shawn, and the woman who owns the store pulls out a gun because one of the guys spills her drink.

Harvey, Shawn, and the rest of Harvey's crew flee the scene, and neither fighter gets paid. For his third fight, Shawn and the crew go to an Asian owned penthouse. Shawn wins the third fight.

Between fights, Shawn meets Zulay a few times, before they eventually have sex. Shawn and Zulay are visited by Harvey, and Shawn is furious, suspecting Zulay and Harvey of having sexual relations.

Harvey explains that Zulay places bets for him. Shawn and Harvey are offered a fight against Evan, and Shawn accepts, but Harvey wants him to throw the fight so that Martinez and his associates can make money.

Find out what happened next as he wants him to throw the fight so that Martinez and his associates can make money as it gets interesting.
