Grudge Match tells the tale of two retired, rival boxers who, after a thirty absence from the sport, decide to step back into the ring for one last bout to finally settle who really is the greatest fighter of them all.
The two grumpy old men,
Jake LaMotta Billy 'The Kid' McDonnen (De Niro) and
Rocky Balboa Henry 'Razor' Sharp (Stallone), may be in the twilight of their careers, but that's not going to stop them from taking one last shot at the title... or at each other's super-sized schnozzles.
And, as with any titanic sporting event in the US worth talking about, HBO's reality documentary series 24/7 was on hand to follow the two titans in the build up to their Grudge Match:
