Ad Wolgast

A fierce battle for the lightweight championship unfolds round after round as Ad Wolgast and Battling Nelson trade devastating blows at Richmond, California in 1910. Through exhaustion and punishment, both fighters refuse to yield, but in the 40th round, Wolgast lands a terrific right that sends Nelson to the canvas for the final time. This is the story of one of the fiercest ring battles ever fought, told by those who were still talking about it in 1938.
