Get up, get up.
- F***ing fight, huh?!
- Damn!
Yeah! Yeah! Come on!
I guess I'll try number three!
Watch it, get him!
Let go! Let go!
Our winner!
- You got that?
- Not of all if it, I...
Okay. I'm going to collect our money.
I'll give you 10% tomorrow.
Don't even worry about that Champ.
You need the money
and you are good for it,
I trust you. Besides, I made
like, an extra 40 on the fight.
I told you to stop betting.
I know, look, just go
get your money, okay?
Yeah, sure. Say hi
to Maria for me, okay?
Sh*t! She's gonna kill me.
Great fight, Champ! Great fight tonight!
- Thank you, Tony.
- I want to talk.
I gotta few ideas,
- You got my money?
Oh, yeah, yeah. Right here.
You know I was thinking that kid, uh,
that Black Scorpion out of Compton.
but I think you could take his ass.
Why don't we set that up for next week?
You're short, Tony.
You're short 40 bucks.
Yeah I know. I had some, uh,
some unexpected expenses
this week. But I'll tell you what,
I'm going to make it up to you, alright?
Tony, I was really coming
about money, man. I need those 40.
I'll tell you what, kid.
I'm gonna add an additional 20
onto next week, huh? After the fight.
How's that sound?
- Tony... Yeah, yeah okay.
- Huh? Let's go have a drink.
What are you drinking?
- Ice. Get me ice, a lot of ice.
- Ice?!
- Get me a diet coke, whatever.
Why don't you have a real drink?
Thank you, Tony.
Champ Cage the Destroyer Fury
knocked out his opponent in 3 seconds,
which became the new fasted time
in MMA history.
of opponents for the Champ
and the president, John Stone,
is looking for challengers.
Cage Fury, man. World MMA Champion.
It's my dream to fight with him.
Dream? Should be more
like your nightmare.
Let's drink to that.
Hey, pretty boy.
- Nice fight tonight.
- Thanks.
My boy here, Little Juan,
says you fight like his abuelita.
You know, he's probably right.
You guys have a great night, ok?
Not now. I like him.
He reminds me of my little pit-bull.
- How are you guys doing?
- We're okay.
How'd you do?
Not too good.
Oh, thank God.
Thank God is right.
Okay, so we can pay the electricity bill
tomorrow and the water next week.
You worry too much.
I got it all taken care of.
He's good, he's strong, Hector.
- Go to bed, I'll met you there.
- Okay.
How are you doing, buddy?
- How was your day, baby?
- It was okay.
Look at your face.
Yeah, I'm getting prettier
by the minute.
How did you win?
I got this guy in a triangle, you know.
When I got him where I need,
I squeezed with all my might.
It was a good fight.
Hector, I know that you love this
and I've never seen you so happy, but...
But I need to get a real job.
Don't worry, I got a few
interviews tomorrow.
- I'll get something.
- I know you're trying, baby.
It's just that...
You know, when I'm fighting...
when I'm in there...
just for a moment, you know...
I feel like I'm a winner.
I feel like I'm somebody, you know.
I can take all my pain
and all my anger out.
And right after they raise my hand,
you and Martin immediately
come to my mind.
how much I love you both.
Baby?
Goodnight, I love you too.
Goodnight, baby.
Maria!
What's happening, baby?
I can't figure out
how to load this thing.
I'm going crazy.
I told you, you have to treat it
like a baby.
Gently and with a lot of love.
That special nurse's touch
only you seem to posses.
Alright, let's see what we got here.
Holy sh*t!
This is the guy I was telling you about,
he's a superstar in the web
and he's actually a better
than okay fighter.
The Mexican Chavez?
You know, you might be a genius.
He's exactly what we are looking for.
of our pay per view sales.
I told you I'd find somebody.
I can see it now; he's Mexico,
he's America, he's today, he's tomorrow.
Not just somebody, but a dream.
We can do the fight on Cinco de Mayo.
three weeks away, I mean...
- He might not even be in shape.
- Listen.
The late choice will build
the drama even higher.
Come on guys, I don't have all day.
I didn't come here to see this show.
Look, this is the perfect fight
for your boy.
You get a great commission,
three weeks away,
- Mexican Independence Day.
- Take a look.
Brent, would you put
some salve on my tattoo?
It eases the inflammation.
This guy's an amateur.
That's exactly why
he's the perfect challenger.
He's Hispanic so we make a lot of money,
and your boy cruises
to another easy fight.
- I don't know.
- It's the finest fuel
to feed the flame of the myth
of Cage the Destroyer Fury.
Hey, fighter.
Whoa, what happened to your face?
- Your wife hit me.
- Oh, come on.
How's my little brother doing?
I'm not your little brother anymore.
I'm 42, I have a wife and a kid.
You're still my little brother.
I want to know why
you haven't come to church?
Isn't it enough Jesus has got you.
Can't you just pray for the two of us?
No. It doesn't work that way.
Well, too bad brother.
That's why you asked me to come here?
What do you need?
Why am I here?
I need one of your blessings, ok?
I have a few job interviews
and I need all the help I can get.
- Jobs?
- Yeah.
You know you always have my blessing.
But I want to see you on Sunday.
- I'll try.
- Try.
Well, I'll do my best.
That's good enough.
How's my nephew, Martin?
He's doing good, he's good.
Look, I got to get going.
Okay, okay, okay.
Don't stop because of me.
Hey, hey! What about the blessing?
Okay.
You're good to go.
I want to see you on Sunday.
Or else I'm going to hurt you!
What's that word there?
- Start?
- Start, that's good.
Keep going.
Hang on, baby.
Hello?
Yeah, this is she.
Actually we're gonna be making
that payment today,
and thank you for not
disconnecting it sooner.
Yes, that's correct, and when
is our next payment due?
Yeah, but I'm paying you today.
Listen, my husband and I
have been out of work
the last ten months and we've been
going on every interview
that we could get.
If you could please, maybe
push the payment back
by two weeks or so, yeah?
Well, could I talk to your supervisor?
Okay, thanks I will.
Excuse me, Dr. Baker, I am Chavez...
Hi Mr. Chavez.
Well sadly, I don't have
good news for you.
Martin will need another operation.
The surgery we performed
when he was 4 months old
to widen the narrowing
preliminary tracked
to enclose the ventricular
septal defect,
wasn't as successful as we had hoped.
Plainly, his heart is weakening.
He's going to need
another surgery very soon.
Okay. Thank you.
Hey, baby.
I have to go to an interview.
- I'll be right back, ok?
- Okay.
- I love you.
- Miss you already.
Get better.
Hi, I'm Gia Chavez.
Oh, yes, Mr. White is ready
for you right now.
Thank you.
So in the very first round,
