Shortly after his family makes the harrowing journey to the US to save his life. Doctors determine 3-month-old Chatzis requires a vital operation. He manages to survive the dangerous surgery that results in the removal of his right arm. Always dreaming to become a Greek warrior, Vaggelis grows up in a rough neighborhood, and surrounded by gangsters, his only way out was to join their endeavors. Facing intense bullying, and experiencing his best friends death he turns violent, 'giving it back.' One day he walks into a boxing gym and tries the impossible, boxing with one arm. He falls in love with the sport, and decides to leave his dark past behind and become the first one-armed pro boxer in the world. Today, Chatzis is at his optimum physical condition headlining some of the biggest boxing events in Greece and proving that anything is possible. Among his accomplishments are 4 wins in professional boxing matches and the No Limits title belt.
