Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Having accidentally broken an expensive mirror owned by Boss Hogg (Sorrell Booke), Uncle Jesse (Denver Pyle) is in danger of losing his farm. Luke (Tom Wopat) tries to settle the debt by agreeing to a prizefight opposite the formidable Catfish Lee (played by real-life Golden Gloves champ Sonny Shields). It soon develops that Catfish--who like Luke is a Marine veteran--has reluctantly formed an alliance with a gang of crooks who have no qualms about playing dirty in order to "fix" the fight in their favor.
