A vicious encounter has him scrambling for a new way to survive—by fighting backBobby is inspired by champion Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao to take up boxing and challenge his tormentor. But when Pacquiao publicly declares his stance against queer people, Bobby''s faith—in his hero and in himself—is shaken to the core.
