A mediocre entry in the popular "Red Ryder" series, THE COWBOY AND THE PRIZEFIGHTER is a western in which the punching takes place in the ring as well as on the cattle range. Steve (Don Haggerty) saves the life of Red Ryder (Jim Bannon), and they, along with sidekick Little Beaver (Little
Brown Jug), put an end to the nefarious schemes of a fight-promoter (John Hart) and a big boxer (Lou Nova). Red Ryder has a vested interest in capturing the crooks, since he believes that the crooked promoter was responsible for the murder of his father.
