Storyline
| Plot Summary |
At a training camp preparing for a heavyweight championship bout are Georges La Verne with Pop O'Keefe, his manager; Nosey Bartlett, the camp cook; and Gink Schiner, a lazy, second-rate fighter who is to appear in a preliminary before the big fight. Although Georges is pursued by society girl Norine Lloyd, he is more interested in Sue Burke, his advisor and childhood playmate; Toots, Gink's sweetheart, is constantly concerned over Gink's flirting with pretty girls. Larkin, manager of champion Bob Morgan, comes to the camp and attempts to have the fight "fixed," but O'Keefe informs him Georges will do his best. The Kicker is delegated by Larkin to incapacitate Georges at a party with a knockout pill, but Gink switches his drink with Nosey's. To everyone's surprise, Gink wins his bout. Before his fight, Georges is accosted by Morgan, and he fares badly in the ring until, with a change of tactics, he knocks out Morgan and wins the title. |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | For many years, this film was presumed lost, since only Vitaphone discs seemed to survive. In the late 1949s and 1950s, Warner Bros. destroyed many of its negatives due to nitrate film decomposition. Studio records indicate that the negative of filmography pre-1931 was marked "Junked 12/27/48" (December 27, 1948); however, a B&W nitrate duplicate negative survives at the UCLA Film and Television Archive. In February 1956, Jack Warner sold the rights to all of his pre-December 1949 films to Associated Artists Productions for television distribution but this title was not included, quite possibly because of legal entanglements resulting from either literary and/or musical rights. So, at this point, it's a question of legalities before the surviving B&W version can be publicly shown once again. See more » |

Toots Breen:
[angry after finding Gink flirting with another girl]
You were having a talk. Gink Schiner: We were having a tête-à-tête. Toots Breen: You were having a talk! Gink Schiner: We were having a tête-à-tête! Toots Breen: How do you spell it? Gink Schiner: We were having a talk. See more » |
