Trama
Le scuole del giovane Rocco Barbella (Paul) sono state la strada e il riformatorio quando, nella prigione militare dove è rinchiuso per diserzione, scopre di avere un talento per la boxe. Con il nome di Rocky Graziano, confortato dall'amore di Norma, inizia una brillante carriera sportiva. Le noie cominciano quando un tipaccio rivela tutti i particolari del suo poco edificante passato, ma niente può mettere k.o. il supercampione, dentro e fuori dal ring.
