Our Christmas story concludes as Jersey Joe Walcott finds his "angel" in the unlikely form of a local gangster. He has had promises before but never one that comes with a basement full of coal. Can Felix Bocchicchio convince desperate Arnold Cream, supporting a family of eight, to come out of retirement and try to make it big in boxing for the sixth time. The world of racial oppression has changed with Joe Louis as the reigning world heavyweight champion since 1937, but how much?
The world champion has cleaned house of all the previous title-holders and has gone on tour only to have these series of fights labelled the "Bum of the Month Club". Vultures begin to circle. Does Joe Louis have a weakness? During the war Jersey Joe scratches out a sparse living working in the famous New Jersey shipyard and Joe Louis has to put his title defences on hold to become a real-life Captain America. Back home tragedy strikes.
As we catch up with time what is the state of the heavyweight contender situation?
