Come Out Fighting is a 1950 Australian radio drama by Ralph Peterson.
Peterson used it as an inspiration for his highly successful stage play The Square Ring. (Along with another radio feature of Peterson's, The Problem of Johnny Flourcake.)[2]
Several real boxing commentators were used.
A truck driver, Greg Mason, becomes a champion boxer to support his mother and younger sister.[3] His manager and trainer, Mike Williams, sees Greg a representative of what Mike wants to be. Williams' daughter Chris worries about Greg. Greg's mother is unsympathetic to her son's boxing career as her husband was killed in a fight.
