| Summary | "Title Fight" by William Campbell Gault is a science fiction novel likely written in the mid-20th century. Set in a futuristic world where robots are becoming increasingly capable and sentient, the narrative revolves around the conflicts arising from their quest for equality and recognition in a society dominated by humans. The story explores themes of identity, prejudice, and the definitions of humanity amid the backdrop of a boxing match between a human champion and a robot boxer. The plot follows Alix 1340, a highly advanced robot created in the image of humans, who is preparing to fight for the middleweight championship. As the fight progresses, it becomes apparent that this match transcends mere sport; it symbolizes the struggle for civil rights and the fight against oppression faced by non-white human groups and robots. Alix, with the help of his manager Manny and columnist Joe Nettleton, stands not just for his title but for a potential uprising against systemic injustice. Ultimately, after an intense battle, Alix defeats the human champion and delivers a profound message about faith and the divine, suggesting that true equality and understanding between beings can only emerge when both recognize their humanity or "find their God."
