Synopsis of The Fugitive: Decision in the Ring
Posing as "Ray Miller", Dr. Richard Kimble (David Janssen) is hired as cut-man for young African American prizefighter Joe Smith (James Edwards). It turns out that Joe had once wanted to be a doctor himself, but gave up his dream, figuring that a black man in the mid-1960s didn't stand a chance of getting into a decent medical school. Meanwhile, Joe's wife Laura (a young Ruby Dee) begs him to quit the ring, but she is unable to wrest her husband from the control of his greedy manager Lou Bragan (James Dunn). Kimble realizes that one more fight will cause Joe to suffer permanent brain damage--but should he intervene in this situation and risk being arrested by the local authorities? ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
