Bruce "the Mouse" Strauss is proud to hold the unofficial record for getting knocked out in boxing rings on every continent except Antarctica. He is a lousy boxer; but he knows it, and is happy to amuse audiences.
I am just sorry that the "Computer Age" destroyed the shamsters. Not every boxer can be a champion or a contender. Journeymen like Bruce Strauss served a purpose in boxing. Commissions became too powerful. A man has a right to make a living. I am a former boxer from back in the day. I should have been a shamster. I would have had a longer career. I could have seen the world. Sincerely, Tom Nigrelli.
Interesting movie, especially for those who know about The Mouse, but the boxing action is unathletic and unconvincing. At age 70, I could have put on a better show than any of the actors.
