ADVERTISING The True Story Behind That Famous Poker Fac#I It all began on an afternoon in May, when an obscure young fighter moved out of his corner at the sound of the bell, threw two punches at his opponent, and watched him collapse on the canvas. This is Joe’s story-his battles and his victories both in the ring and outside it. This his personal, intimate story —as real as his humility... as deep-reaching as his love for t-he girl from Chicago ... as terrifying as the wicked whispers that plagued him. It’s all here, powerfully told with a great cast whose surprise per¬ formances will stun you. Someone once said, “Joe lost his wife, lost his title, lost his money, lost his beloved Chappie .. .but out of all of it—he found himself.” In this motion picture you will find all the excitement...the ad¬ venture ... the thrills — of a great story of a great guy who had the world in his corner!
