violence
Archive footage shows moments of mild violence in boxing matches; there are also impressionistic reconstructions of boxing matches, but these all lack graphic detail.
language
There is strong language ('f**k') along with milder terms such as 'shite', 'bollocks', 'ball', 'arse', 'bloody', 'Jesus', 'Christ' and 'hell'.
discrimination
Brief undetailed references are made to racial discrimination, but such attitudes are not expressed or condoned. A man refers to a medical condition causing a person to become 'daft'; this reference is fleeting, undetailed and without further context.
