The angry men... The lonely women!"; "The gutsiest picture ever made!"; "Written by Rod Serling"; "Produced by David Susskind"; based on the earlier Rod Serling TV version) starring Anthony Quinn, Jackie Gleason, Mickey Rooney, Julie Harris, and Muhammad Ali (as himself; billed as "Cassius Clay")
Storyline
Mountain Rivera, a punchy has-been managed by the unprincipled Maish, is mauled in a fight and forced to quit boxing. Can his devoted cutman and a sympathetic social worker help him find a life outside the ring, or will Maish find a way to exploit him one more time?
