Natalie Ray is a 30-year-old mum of four, married to MMA fighter Stevie 'Braveheart' Ray. Right now he’s just one fight away from becoming Scotland’s first world champion. But at what cost? This is the all-or-nothing tale of his $1M prize fight, and the aftermath, told through Natalie’s eyes.

Mixed martial arts is a full-contact sport that many will know as cage fighting. Kirkcaldy-born Stevie has risen from fighting on the street to competing on MMA’s world stage. After career-threatening injuries and a shock retirement in 2020, he’s come back, and he’s gearing up for the fight of his life. But getting to the top of the game requires sacrifices, with restrictive diets and a punishing training regime. Show less
