Badass Showdown Page #2

get plenty of time with Ivy...

Take a load off and enjoy

the house. Ivy's going to

meet you all in an hour.

Finally...

Forget this I'm done

with all this...

I'm going to go taking a shower.

Sounds good.

Uhhh...

Sh*t dude...

Ohhhh...

This is more like it.

Yes Sir... Yes Sir

This is the best part about

the workout right here...

The benefits...

Where'd you go?

Went for a run on the

beach.

You're not suppose to

leave the house.

No one told me that.

Ivy's rules. Your people

Should have told you.

I don't have any people.

It's Just me.

Well, Then you should have

read the contract.

Look I did. Ivy wants her

fighters to be quote-unquote:

Be fully present. I didn't

know that was literal.

What's your game, Dusty?

Dustin. And I'm Just clarifying

the rules. That's the most

important part in playing

any game, isn't it?

I don't like your attitude.

I just ran seven miles, my

attitude is tired and sweaty.

I've known plenty of guys

like you, sure you grew up

on the streets, maybe

read a few a few books,

you think you've got

everything figured out.

But you don't your ass

from a hole in the ground.

You don't know anything.

You're right, Jimmy.

Maybe that's why I came

here. To find my self. And

maybe you can help me.

Ivy's going to love you...

you're just like her, you

both love to hear

yourself talk your smug,

word- twisting crap-ola.

Sorry you feel that way. At

least Ivy and I have more

than one thing in common.

Just go shower already. Meet

down here in an hour.

Sounds good.

I'm glad you all made it to

meet with me...

I know you have

questions, So im

Going to answer a few.

You're all here

because you are looking

for the best person to

promote your career as a

fighter and beyond. I know

the big picture in the fight

game better than anybody

else. You know the

champions I promote and

the former champions who've

gone on to do

movies and commercials im

going to find the best

person to manage your

finances... I am a one stop

shop, gentleman. Think of me

like the mother you

never knew you needed.

I have room in my family

for one fighter.

Other promoters have

dozens and dozens of

clients; I don't. You get my

full attention, my care, my

team and expertise to be

the best.

It's as simple as that.

Any questions?

How do you determine who's best?

I'll be watching you.

Oh... do what?

Are we going to be fighting?

You will be doing some

light sparring. Some

exercises and some drills,

I have all your fights and

all your extensive briefs

from my trainers... Now I'm more

interested in what's going

on between your ears.

Well then Tyler should just

take a cab right now.

It's going to be tough

laughing at me when

I choke you out.

Bring it. I'll happily make

you more braindead.

Come on guys...

Boys... boys, do me a

favor and save it for

someone who cares.

Because right now I'm just

not interested in that... I

know you all are good

fighters, you're all big, bad,

scary men who can

intimidate mortal men, but

the thing is, it's

uninteresting to me. So if

you want to have bar fights

on who ever has the biggest

reach, there's the door.

Get out now.

Why should I sign with

you? Why shouldn't I sign

with like Scotty K? Or

the dozens of other

promoters who want to

give me six-figure contract.

Make no mistake, I'm the

one who is signing one of

you... It's not the other way

around. If you didn't

respect me and respect

the business I do... You

wouldn't be sitting on my

couch. Do We understand

each other?

Now, Jimmy's going to

give you more drills and

exercises, Rest assured I'll

be watching. So get some

rest, you're going to need it.

Dinner in the

kitchen, eat whereever you

want, but don't stay up too

late, gonna be an early

day tomorrow.

What's up?

What's your deal with Scotty K?

He offered me a contract.

Not a great one, but when

he found out I was invited

here, he sweetened the pot.

How so?

You know Ivy's PDA?

The one she

was carrying with her?

Yeah, what about it?

Well It's got all her notes,

fights... contracts, I mean

pretty much her whole

operation is run on that thing...

Which means it's worth a lot

of money to her competitor.

How much?

A lot.

It takes a five-figure

deal, makes it six.

Where do I come in?

With all this...

Look, there's no doubt

you're the best fighter here. I

bring him Ives PDA and her

top prospect, he offers you

the biggest contract he's

ever offered and I make my

career as the fighter who

bested Ivy Reed.

How do I know you're

Not full of it?

I'll let you talk to

him... Just not here. If Ivy or

Jimmy or any of those other

scrubs got wind of

this, I'd be doing my

fighting in prison.

What's to stop me from

screwing you Over though?

Nothing, I guess. But Ivy just

doesn't seem your style.

You have more going for you.

You got that right...

Alright, I'll talk with Scotty

K. Uhh feel it out,

And we just might have a

deal.

This is all worth it, isn't it?

How do you mean?

I mean, All this... You know

Ivy's reputation as well as

you do. She's weird. She's

always done things her own

thing, but she gets results.

Maybe not as much recently...

We're all here, aren't we?

Ya But, she kind

of scares me too.

How so?

Like... I know what to

expect in the ring... But with

her I don't. And it's not just

cause she's a woman either.

Maybe it's because she

doesn't show emotions. I

mean I haven't seen any

anyway. Not in any

interview, Or any TV piece.

I'd really don't know

where it comes from.

Man, You really done your

homework on Ivey.

Ya I did my homework.

Do you really think we made a

mistake by coming here?

The mistake where made a long

time ago. I'm going to bed.

Alright... Goodnight, Dustin.

Night, Connor. And Don't worry

about it too much.

Oh no... Things will

definitely work out the way

they're supposed to.

I'd like to think so.

Alright man...

Dig deeper. You're not going

to get signed by half-assing it.

Where's Ivy?

She's paying attention.

Believe me.

Until then, keep moving.

Whatever, boss.

I for one, appreciate Jimmy's

training.

He was a hell of a fighter.

Yeah, 'was. '

Enough yammering, get to work.

Hey, kiss-ass, when you

gonna get me on the phone

with Scotty K?

Soon. I don't want to give them

any reason to be nervous.

No, noo... Let's do it...

Do it now...

With Jimmy in and out and Ivy

who knows where?

No, just be patient.

No.

No.

Tyler, what's your favorite

finishing move?

Um... What was?

Connor, favorite finishing move?

Oh Uh, Rear naked Choke... or

maybe my spinning back kick,

people really seem to like that

one. Or maybe my Uhhh...

Dustin?

Rear naked choke.

You seem pretty sure

of yourself.

The moment I'm not sure of

myself in a fight.

The moment I loose...

Gentle men. I'm gonna have a

little tournament on the lawn,

All grappling, no striking. So

if you need to

Stretch out do it now...

Striking. I like striking...

that's a good one right.
