Modified Synopsis from IMDb:
Elvis Presley stars as Walter Gulick, an ex-G.I. who returns to his rustic home town in upstate New York looking for work as an auto mechanic. Amibitious but naive, he's reluctantly roped into becoming a boxer by dubious manager turned-inkeeper Willy Grogan (Oscar-winner Gig Young). With his loyal trainer Lew Nyack (screen legend Charles Bronson) at his side, the iron-jawed, anvil-fisted Elvis quickly becomes the top-drawing champion "Kid Galahad." But when the mob tries to muscle in on he action, the cool-headed fighter is forced to pull no punches in the ultimate bout to protect his honor and his dreams.
