Synopsis

The exhilarating yet heart-breaking true story of the meteoric rise of British-Yemeni boxer Prince Naseem Hamed and his relationship with Irish Boxing trainer Brendan Ingle. Naseem faced down the abhorrent racism and islamophobia that swept Britain in the 80s and 90s, to become a defining global icon of the era, both inside and outside of the ring. With his unorthodox style, cocky persona and sheer dominance of the sport, Naseem was as loved as he was divisive, in the public eye, and away from the spotlight. Together with Brendan Ingle - a steel industry worker who ran a humble boxing gym in an church hall in the North of England - they founded an unlikely dynasty that would change the face of boxing globally and launch Naseem as one of the most memorable and controversial global sports stars in history. GIANT is a story about ambition, glory, identity and the search for our place in the world.
