Ace Hudkins was born in Nebraska in 1905. He began to box at the early age of 12. In 1921, he started fighting professionally and continued to box until he was 27 years old. He has the distinct honor of never being knocked out. Nicknamed the "Nebraska Wildcat," Hudkins was known for his toughness in the ring. For most of his boxing career, he lived in Southern California and was well known for his fights on the West Coast. Perhaps his most famous fight took place in New York in 1927 when he defeated Ruby Goldstein in a knockout. A writer rote of Hudkins' victory over Goldstein as "the fight that broke the Jewish banks."

As his career began to wind down in the 1930s, he had difficulty dealing with alcoholism. On January 10, 1932 he was arrested on charges of assault with a deadly weapon in L.A. for punching a man in the head and fracturing his skull. The charges were later dropped but Park sued Hudkins for $50,000 and was awarded $1. His girlfriend sued him the same year for $160,000 dollars but lost the case. After winning the case, Ace got drunk and was arrested for public intoxication and for fighting with the police. On July 16th he was arrested for drunk driving. After being released from jail the next morning, Ace went to a bar and shortly after drove his car into a building destroying both the car and the building. He was then taken back to jail. In December off 1932 he was arrested two more times for the same charges. In March of 1933, Hudkins was visiting Hawaii. While there, he was arrested twice for disorderly conduct after fighting in hotel bars and spent a week in jail.
