The Bully (film #8 on The Cartoons That Time Forgot: The Ub Iwerks Collection, Vol. 2 DVD (Image Entertainment, 1999)).

Flip the Frog has a run-in with a neighborhood bully and eventually gets roped into fighting him in the boxing ring. This leads to the standard set of boxing cartoon gags. The ending is pretty surprising, though.

Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: ***. Weirdness: ***. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ***.
