Ringo by Curtis Garland

This Spanish-language pulp magazine issue presents a boxing story featuring Héctor "Ringo" Valdés, a young Argentine boxer who recently arrived in the United States. The narrative centers on Ringo's significant victory over Brown Kid in Chicago, a bout that catches the attention of boxing circles. After a difficult fourth round where Ringo is knocked down, he recovers strategically, exploiting his opponent's openings and delivering a devastating liver punch followed by a knockout blow in the fifth round. The victory impresses Tennessee Jackson, the reigning heavyweight champion, who encourages the ambitious young fighter. Following the match, a Chicago promoter named Cochran reads newspaper accounts of Ringo's impressive performance and contacts his associate Megg to discuss the Argentine boxer's potential, learning that Ringo's trainer is Max Conty.
