Tommy Mutch
Ah, Boxing and the mob went so well together in old time boxing movies doesn’t it? In “There Ain’t No Justice” we meet Tommy Mutch, a mechanic turned boxer who is seduced in the world of pugilism and wins a series of fights, though unbeknownst to him was rigged as part of a gambling syndicate. It is a dark tale, but well written and respected in its time.
