More footage continues to come out of upcoming biopic, with TMZ Sports sharing a new video of the star sparring in the ring.
The latest video comes from TMZ, who exclusively shared in-ring footage of Sweeney boxing it out in a sparring session with the actual Christy Martin.
Dressed as Christy from the upcoming movie, Sweeney and Martin gently go back and forth with one another. It’s unclear if this is going to be in the upcoming movie in any way or if this is just some playful back-and-forth between the two while on set.
