lodge with her grandfather, a former USSR
champion in boxing. To pass the time the man
has been training his granddaughter. So by
the age of 25 she’s become a perfect fighter.
Due to the circumstances and owing to an
acquaintance with the well-known promoter
Golikov, Alexandra comes to Moscow where
they start training her to become a professional
boxer. Pretty quickly there comes a
chance for Alexandra to prove her talent. Joan
Miller, a world boxing champion, arrives in
Moscow and Golikov manages to outbid the

versus the inexperienced Alexandra Platoshina.

to spend just a few hours in Moscow. But this
short breather has proved enough to have
changed the whole life of the heroine…
