What happens in Christy (2025) and who stars in it?

Christy (2025) follows Christy Salters Martin from her first experience in the ring in Mullens, West Virginia, in 1989, where she won a local boxing match without formal training.
Her natural aptitude catches the eye of a local coach, James Martin, who, after witnessing this, takes her under his wing to train and manage her career. In 1993, Christy followed James to Florida, where they started a gym and later got married. However, the relationship changes to a controlling and abusive one as time goes on.
Christy later signs a contract with fight promoter Don King, and through the fights televised, she becomes a household name, one of which is her famous 1996 fight in Las Vegas against Deirdre Gogarty. As a result of the increased profile, she became the first female boxer to be featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated.
But, the life of her career and that of her personal life from 2003 are of a downward spiral as the control of her husband James grows and the physical abuse she is subjected to escalates.
She was beaten by Laila Ali in a match, she got involved in drugs, and she faced her inner demons, as well as got threats from James.
In 2010, we learn that Christy tried to escape James, but in yet another episode of violence where she was stabbed and shot by him, but fortunately, she managed to flee. Medical intervention is rendered to her after she escapes.
Christy also covers the story of her rehabilitation, her reunion with Lisa Holewyne, and her return to the gym. James Martin was taken to prison for a prison sentence.
