The White Hope

Joe Cook (Joe Cook) is a gymnasium owner and boxing promoter who is working to build up prizefighter George the Greek (George Givot) as the next Great White Hope that will defeat world-heavyweight-champion Joe Louis (who, obviously, isn't in the film). But Joe also has problems with a finance company and an indictment for income-tax evasion.
