The Fire Within is the inspiring true story of Claressa Shields, arguably the greatest female boxer of all time. Claressa, a high school student from Flint, Michigan, with the help of her tough coach Jason Crutchfield, overcomes all odds to become the first American woman to win an Olympic gold medal in boxing. But even at the pinnacle of success, Claressa must accept that not all dreams are created equal, and that the real fight has only just begun.
