Overview
Rev. Fred Sultan is a crooked boxing promoter seeking to make the most profit possible from James "The Grim Reaper" Roper's next championship bout. He ignores the current number one contender in favor of a white fighter, declaring that mixed-race fights have a bigger draw. Sultan digs up the only man to ever hand Roper a loss, Terry Conklin, a nobody long since out of the sport. Bribes and fixed fights abound in this parody of the current state of boxing.
