Prizefighter is a short, verite-style documentary about amateur, female boxer and single-mother, Heather "the Heat" Hardy. Unlike any other boxing documentary, Prizefighter is subdued and insightful and chronicles Heather's daily struggle, leading up to a championship match at the Metropolitan Championships in Queens, New York.

0:53 prophetic words which tragically came to be: "My fear is that...all of this is going to be for nothing." It indeed was for nothing.....in 2024 Heather Hardy retired in pain and destitution after suffering too much brain damage because of her (admittedly) low skill and big heart, a dangerous combination. She convinced herself that her inferior skill set (2:33 "I'm uncoordinated, i'm dumb") she says ) was offset by her "heart". But thing is, she began fighting girls who had big skills *and *heart too. A lot of less talented people convince themself of that, that their heart will offset deficits in skill, not just for themselves, but will hold true against those they compete against. As if the talented naturals she fought (Amanda Serrano, for instance) would have less heart than Hardy. In tennis its one thing, but in combat sports, Heather Hardy will be the prime cautionary tale for NOT getting into boxing. Hopefully , she inspires NO MORE young people to get into boxing, and inspires some female boxers to GET OUT of boxing. I read that she was dazzled by the psychological high of one of her early fights where the crowd was chanting her name after a victory. Heather Hardy's rest of her life will have value, usefulness, integrity if she warned people of the dangers of boxing. Instead, as i write this, she is doubling down on justifying her experience, and speaking out against unfair pay disparities in the sport. She says, "Boxing saves more lives than it takes", but that is self-deception. And dangerous advice, because what if young women want to follow in her footsteps? Keep an eye on Heather Hardy in the next few years - her brain damage which already prevents her from riding a bike, remembering things, sleeping...it's only going to get worse and we'll be privy to it. it will be grim, disturbing to watch, more so than it is already
