Charismatic Fred Sultan manages undefeated heavyweight James but can’t drum up a fight for his man. If he can’t find a boxer brave enough, he can always play the black-white card., Boxing is more than just a sport — it’s also a business and a con game in this satirical comedy. Rev. Fred Sultan (Samuel L. Jackson) is a shrewd boxing promoter and manager whose meal ticket is heavyweight champion James “The Grim Reaper” Roper (Damon Wayans), a fighter whose skill and confidence significantly outstrips his intelligence. While the top-ranked contender for Roper’s title is Marvin Shabazz (Michael Jace), Sultan isn’t too keen on the idea of Shabazz fighting Roper — it seems that both fighters are black, and Sultan’s figures show that mixed race matches stir up a lot more media attention and pay-per-view customers. Eager to find a white challenger for Roper, Sultan digs up Terry Conklin (Peter Berg), who won a Golden Gloves fight against Roper many years ago but is now out of the game and fronting a rock band called Massive Head Wound. Thanks to a few bribes and a couple of fixed fights, Sultan is able to arrange for Conklin to be next in line to battle “The Grim Reaper.” However, Conklin is taking his renewed career as a boxer quite seriously, while Roper, convinced that Conklin doesn’t stand a chance, has let himself go and gained a lot of weight. Suddenly Sultan realizes that Roper might just lose the piece-of-cake fight he’s so carefully arranged, while journalist Mitchell Kane (Jeff Goldblum) smells a rat in Conklin’s sudden rise to ranking status. Jon Lovitz, Cheech Marin, and Corbin Bernsen highlight the supporting cast, while members of the well-regarded alternative rock band Local H appear as Massive Head Wound., When the champ’s promoter, Rev. Sultan, decides something new is needed to boost the marketability of the boxing matches, he searches and finds the only man to ever beat the champ. The problem is that he isn’t a boxer anymore and he’s white. However, once Rev. Sultan convinces him to fight, he goes into heavy training while the confident champ takes it easy and falls out of shape., A flamboyant boxing promoter invents a scheme to find a suitable opponent for his reigning champion in this satirical exposé of the promotion game.
