Newly crowned heavyweight champ Joe Palooka, manager Knobby Walsh (Shemp), and sparring partner Punchy, set up training camp at a farmer's boarding house. The champ is broke and the board tab keeps rising, prompting the farmer to threaten them with a visit from the Sheriff.

Local society girl Ann Howe catches Palooka's eye, and she convinces him to fight an exhibition bout with Punchy at a charity event she's hosting. Her boyfriend Jim Perry, an ex-amateur college boxing champ, is jealous and schemes to replace Punchy so he can embarrass Joe, and impress Ann. Meanwhile, Knobby figures out a way to con Ann into paying their boarding bill.

The 2nd installment in the "Joe Palooka" series introduces the comic strip's love interest, Ann Howe.
