Whiplash.

A prizefighter, after a series of battles in and out of the ring, retires from boxing and becomes a painter.

A struggling painter, Mike Gordon, is unhappy that a customer, Laurie Durant, purchase one of his works. Mike considers his art worthless and goes to Laurie offering to buy it back. She insists on keeping it, so Mike invites her to dinner instead. Adopting the name "Mike Angelo" as a nod to his interest in art, Mike becomes a prizefighter.
