Synopsis:
Ted Grant is scheduled to fight Tiger Taffer. Taffer's manager Possum Pate bets that Grant won't beat his fighter. Suspecting a setup, Wildcat bets on Grant to win. On the day of the fight, Pate's men kidnap Grant. He changes into his Wildcat outfit, beats the crooks, then arrives in time for the fight. He is tired from the earlier fight, but still manages to triumph over Taffer. Pate's scheme to keep Ted out of the fight in order to win his bet fails, and Ted turns his own winnings over to charity.
