What I liked

I liked the use of the boxing specifics as a greater metaphor for what Ronnie is fighting with in his everyday life.

What I didn't like

I wish I knew more about boxing. I’ve no knowledge and I feel like a passing knowledge would have enhanced a few elements, but not totally necessary.

My overall impression

A really impressively told story! A neat use of modern press-type tropes to build to the shows greater reveal. Ronnie deals with the evolution of himself and we grow with him as we begin to understand the questions he’s been struggling with himself.
