Description
Steve Blondel is better known throughout the West as El Cougar – the fighting cowboy.
An unbeatable force, he’s winning competitions nationwide and earning a reputation for his skills in the ring.
As the first fighting cowboy to come out of the West, Blondel is quickly becoming the one to beat.
Huge bets are placed on his success and people travel far and wide to watch him in action.
But his career is suddenly interrupted when he learns of the disappearance of his brother, a Pinkerton Detective who has mysteriously vanished whilst en-route to a fight.
However, it’s not long before Blondel realizes that his brother has been murdered by a gang of vicious train robbers, and his body tossed into the nearby canyon.
Blondel vows vengeance, and locates the prime suspects of the attack – the infamous Morton family who will stop at nothing to get what they want.
But when he meets Carmen, the beautiful and beguiling sister of the Morton brothers, his plans for bloodthirsty revenge are put on hold.
Will Blondel maintain his reputation as The Fighting Cowboy of the West whilst avenging the life of his brother?
Will he finally meet his match in the seductive and dangerous Carmen?
