Проработав 17 лет в газете и не заработав ничего на «черный» день, он соглашается вести грязную «раскрутку» бездарного, слабого боксера внушительной внешности и роста. «Бокс — это балет, шоу, на котором делают деньги», — так говорит ему полукриминальный промоутер Род Стайгер, — но ведь в балете не убивают в раздевалке танцоров, отказывающихся танцевать. Только сейчас Эдди понимает всю подноготную этого безжалостного мира, где менеджеры жестоко и без всяких сантиментов манипулируют своими боксерами. Хватит ли у него силы воли восстать против хорошо отлаженной машины криминального бизнеса?

Rhythm of the Rio Grande
Shorty (Tex's Sidekick)
Filmed at Palmdale, California, this Tex Ritter Western continued a recent trend of limiting Ritter's trademark music numbers in favor of rather ill staged fisticuffs and other action scenes. Ritter, who was never very lucky with his ever changing comic sidekicks, was here saddled with one Frank Mitchell, a New Yorker visibly ill at ease on the celluloid range. Tex and Shorty (Mitchell) ride into Cinco Valley, a gold rich area terrorized by marauders ostensibly lead by one Pablo (Martin Garralaga). Tex, however, recognizes Blackie (Earl Douglas), whose boss is Bannister (Warner Richmond), an American. Suspecting that Bannister and his henchmen are trying to drive the settlers off their potentially valuable land by posing as Mexican banditos, Tex convinces Pablo to help him set a trap for the marauders.

He devises a scheme to have a car equipped with the engine entered into a race, without race officials-- or the engine designer's sassy daughter -- finding out about it.
West of Carson City
Henchman Breed
West of Carson City remains one of the best of Johnny Mack Brown's Universal westerns. The story takes place in a gold-rush community where the locals are taken to the cleaners by duplicitious Eastern gamblers. When it becomes obvious that the local constabulary has been "bought off" by the crooks, two-fisted cattleman Jim Bannister (Brown) swings into action. The film's highlight is an outsized fistic brawl between the hero and secondary villain Breed, played by loose-limbed comic stuntman Frank Mitchell.
