"...otto... nove... dieci... siete fuori!"

ANCHOR BAY VHS tapes are usually recorded at slower tape speeds. Transfers still look decent and track stably in this reviewer's VCR.

Original Italian name of RIPPED OFF (Un uomo dalla pelle dura) translates as: "Tough-skinned Man."
"Murder in the Ring" is an alternate U.S. title.

The US print of this picture has typically bad voice dubbing and is choppily edited down to well under-90 minutes running time.

Former welterweight boxer Joe Louis Murphy appears. In Murphy's journeyman career he amassed a 13 - 11 record from 1955 to '66.

SYNOPSIS--
Fight manager Nick da Catarina (Ferzetti) receives threats from mobsters that his "boy" Teddy 'Cherokee' Wilcox (Blake) had better lose this upcoming fight-- or else. Cherokee refuses to "lay down." He wins the bout and Nick ends up dead. Police Captain Perkins (Borgnine) tries to prove that the boxer murdered his manager.

"Ripped Off" is available on DVD.
