We return to the first half of the 20th century and our saga of an unsung boxing hero. After winning the respect of the world but not the championship, Jersey Joe Walcott and the longest reigning world heavyweight king, Joe Louis, know they must face one another again.
Meanwhile a new devastating force rises through the weight divisions. We chart the rise of Ezzard Charles, "The Cincinnati Cobra", considered by many to be the greatest light heavyweight of all time and reluctant new contender for boxing's most prestigious crown.
Sub-plots include the boxing style of Archie "The Mongoose" Moore, the courage of Freddie Mills, "Murderers' Row" and Gus Lesnevich.
