Sweeney, an actress and producer involved in the film project, faces criticism over her perceived disconnection from the material. Ruby Rose originally planned to play a key role in the movie but exited due to differences related to authenticity. Expressing her disappointment, Rose stated:
"The original Christy Martin script was incredible. Life changing. I was attached to play Cherry. Everyone had experience with the core material. Most of us were actually gay. It's part of why I stayed in acting."
Amid this turmoil, some fans and LGBTQ+ activists question whether Sweeney was the right fit for portraying such an iconic figure from the boxing world known not just for her skills in the ring but also for overcoming personal challenges like abuse and her journey coming out as gay.
The film made its debut earning $649 per screen, but feedback suggests mixed feelings about whether casting choices affected its performance. Despite having progressive work credits involving LGBTQ+ themes, Sweeney faces accusations tied to her family's social media activities and past controversies such as campaigns echoing controversial imagery.
Ruby Rose further criticized Sweeney’s PR approach concerning viewer interests:
"For her PR to talk about it flopping and saying SS did it for the 'people'. None of 'the people' want to see someone who hates them, parading around pretending to be us. You're a cretin and you ruined the film. Period. Christy deserved better."
Christy Martin remains a celebrated athlete who conquered many personal battles alongside professional success. Her story holds significant cultural importance representing resilience and authenticity within sports history.
