Ringside Maisie (1941)

Maisie Ravier (Ann Sothern) is a burlesque performer whose life is never short on adventure. She gets entangled in the world of professional boxing when her dear friend Terry Dolan (Robert Sterling), a promising young pugilist, scores his first chance at a major title. Dolan has actually grown to loathe the sport and wants out, but he fears disappointing his pushy but devoted manager, Skeeter (George Murphy). When Maisie follows him to training, Terry tries to confess to his feelings.
