Walter Hill's first movie is a Depression era tale of street fighters.  Charles Bronson is Chaney, who travels from town to town, picking up money on bare knuckle fights and then moving on.  James Coburn as huckster promoter Speed and Strother Martin as Poe, as a dope addict corner man. The best fight is a terrific battle in a cage between Bronson and movie bad guy the late Robert Tessier! Ol' Chuck tatooes his pointy-bald head with his fists. It is actually better than the final confronation between Chaney and a top fighter brought in by a gangster. Fun fair. This is pan and scan so be warned.
