Ralph Nelson – Requiem for a Heavyweight (1962)
Adapted from Rod Serling’s celebrated teleplay, this fight-film classic stars Anthony Quinn as Mountain Rivera, a veteran heavyweight and near-champion who suddenly finds himself washed up in the only trade he knows—prizefighting. Yet, threatened by gangsters for welshing on a gambling debt, Mountain’s opportunistic manager, Maish Rennick (Jackie Gleason), schemes to get the ex-boxer into a phony wrestling match to make some quick money. Although he and his loyal trainer, Army (Mickey Rooney), oppose the degrading proposition, the disillusioned Mountain begins to wonder if he has any options left.

Hi, Sir, there’s a mistake in the title: the year is not 1956 but 1962.
Best.
