Tyrone Fallon is a boxer. He is a contender. Tyrone is the local boy; he is meeting "King" Billy Mason for the British Featherweight crown. Trufax is a tough Yorkshire town and the locals are rooting for their boy against the title holder. But there is another person in the ring with Tyrone - his dead father, and the weight of his past. Tyrone is fighting more than Billy Mason; he is fighting his own ghosts, his own demons... Set in the tough world of professional boxing, this is a sensitive and profound examination of one man's life, centred around just one fight... During his boxing career, Philip McGrath fought two men who later fought for the World Feather Weight Title - Floyd Robertson and Rafui King. While at light weight, in a black and white televised fight he fought Maurice Cullen, losing on points, and also beat the Canadian Champion Eddie Beattie at Wembley.
