Just when things can't become any more desperate and complicated, his estranged, tough beyond his years son max (Dakota goyo) suddenly and unwillingly comes back into his life.
The alienated duo reluctantly team up to rebuild and train a scrap heap robot and turn it to a boxing cntender. As stakes in the brutal, no holds barred fighting arenas are raised, against all odds Charlie gets one last shot at a comeback.
