Later Slam Bradley learns that another boxer has died while facing Cardoni. Suspecting trouble, Slam decides to become a boxer so that he can fight Cardoni himself.

While Slam trains for the fight, Shorty and Snoop go undercover as Cardoni's sparing partners. Later they overhear a gambler named Manny admit to killing the other fighters with an electric gun. Before they can warn Slam, Shorty and Snoop are caught and held prisoner.

When the fight day arrives, Slam battles Cardoni in the ring. Slam appears to be winning the fight, so Manny prepares to shoot him with the electric gun. However Shorty has escaped and replaced the gun with a water pistol. Slam wins the fight, while Shorty and Snoop apprehend Manny. Slam then gives up his boxing career.
