rating: 5 QuoteMust Have for Conway & Knotts Fans!Quote
Basically, this is the Conway and Knotts that we loved in the Apple Dumpling Gang, full-length. This is Conway's and Knotts' brand of slapstick comedy that perfectly matches the film's theme. Their performance in this film is a notch above that of the Private Eyes. If you watch the Prize Fighter as though you were seeing it on the big screen in 1979, you'll agree that this is the quintessential Conway and Knotts. September 30, 2005

rating: 3 QuoteA moral boxing movie. Quote
This is a movie for boxing fans who want thier monies worth. It stars Tim Conway as a bumbling boxer who really hasn't made a name for himself, and Don Knotts as his manager. The jokes are flat here, and it seems more serious than a comedy. However, it does make up for itself with showing a moral boxer. In the movie Conway is set up with other bum boxers like himself, and he beats them all, and then he gets the golden opprtunity to take on the boxing champion in his weight catagory. Here Knotts gets mixed up with some shady characters in which Knotts and Conway can stand to make alot of money if Conway throws the fight. However, when Conway learns of this something snaps within him, and he goes out there with all he has, and ends up winning the bout. It's Disney fare no doubt, and it wasn't even put out by Disney, but just about average. May 28, 2005
