James Marshall plays Tommy Riley, a Chicago kid lured into joining the world of underground boxing on the South Side of the Windy City after his father accumulated a mound of gambling debts in Gladiator (1993). Soon a crooked boxing promoter named Horn (Brian Dennehy) who is known for match fixing, takes him under his unscrupulous wing and sets up a fight with James’ new found friend Lincoln (Cuba Gooding Jr.). The highlight of the film comes when Dennehy throws the manly Marshall against the ropes and pulls down his trousers, revealing a shapely ass. Now if only we saw the real gladiator hiding under those boxing shorts!
