Hard Times (1975)

A man named Chaney arrives somewhere in Louisiana during the Great Depression. We don't know whether he is a hobo, an ex convict, a deserter or an asylum seeker but he sure is a freight hopper n a very good fighter. He comes upon a street fighting competition n after observing a bare knuckled fight, he approaches the manager of the losing fighter n asks the manager to set a fight for him but cautions the manager that he needs only enough money to fill a few in-bet-weens before moving on. Before his first fight the opponent finds our hobo a little too old to be participating in such kinda fights but our hero is a silent type one who lets his knuckle speak more than his mouth.
