Dan Stuart is a sporting man from Dallas with a scheme as big as Texas. He plans to stage the prizefight of the year and reap a million-dollar gate. But Stuart finds the path to riches strewn with obstacles. Outraged politicians block him at every turn, and a gang of robbers led by a sharp-shooting beauty have plans of their own- the heist of the century. Stuart has two pugilists, five gunmen, Bat Masterson, and judge Roy Bean in his corner. Now with the robbers set to score and the Texas Rangers hot on his trail, the West's first boxing promoter is desperately searching for a place to hold his fight. When he finds it you will want to be ringside for all the action I am sure.Bloodsport is based on a true story.
