Battling Bunyan is a 1924 American silent sports comedy film directed by Paul Hurst and starring Wesley Barry, Frank Campeau, and Molly Malone.

[1] It was based on a short story in the Saturday Evening Post by Raymond Leslie Goldman.

In order to raise cash in a hurry, a young man takes up professional boxing despite the fact he is totally unsuited to it.

As described in a review in a film magazine,[2] Bunyan (Barry), a young chap who has gained a lot of experience in the school of hard knocks, has a small position in a garage.

Canby gives Bunyan the full thousand dollars prize and he buys into the garage partnership and then marries Molly.
