Never Back Down 2 Page #4

That's good.

You've got a good chance to win this thing.

Nah, man. I'm just not interested any more.

Oh, sh*t.

Dude, is that Lyoto Machida?

Yeah. It is.

He used to be light

heavyweight champion, dude.

What's he doing here?

Him and Case used to train together in Brazil.

Okay, so, dude, what's the deal with Case?

I mean, why isn't he world frickin' champ?

Well, he was champ

in a few other organisations.

Max told me six years ago,

he was set to take the MMA world by storm.

Then he just disappeared.

Damn.

That must have been

when he went to prison, right?

Nope.

He was only in prison for two years.

He got out on good behaviour.

Hey. What are you guys lookin' at?

Go get ready.

Hey, so what was Case convicted of?

Never asked, he never told.

Bet it rhymes with "kromicide".

I saw some old clips of him

on YouTube fighting.

You would not believe

the famous dudes he's beaten.

I know.

Case got busted

for cuttin' the tag off a pillow.

Did you see his fights with Ray Sefo?

Or how about him versus Bas Rutten?

Zerohacker Lebanon

GOODFELLAS DVDS:

-Yeah.

-Those were some good fights, man.

Or what about, what's his name,

the blonde, buff brother?

Melvin Guillard.

No, no, no. He's, like, half Case's size.

Sisqo.

-Michael MacDonald?

-No, no, no. Bigger than him.

I know.

Case got in trouble

for copying a Hornets game

without the written consent of the NBA.

Dude, did you forget to take your meds

or something today?

No, this guy, he suplexed Fedor.

And he knocked out Mirko Cro Cop.

Kevin Randleman.

Hey, guys, I just...

I just wanted to say, look,

what you guys did for me with this gym,

I just wanted to say thanks.

Go easier on us in sparring

might be one way to show your gratitude.

You know, it's your temper

that gets you into trouble sparring.

I'm a little worried about you.

Zack needs to be the one worried about Mike.

What, you don't see the way he looks at Eve?

I'm just sayin', dude,

you need to get your own girl.

I'm just gonna ignore this clown.

Hey, Nlike, why don't you slip me

your mom's number?

I hear she's single.

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Hey.

You guys wanna go at it? Get in the cage.

Yeah, I wanna go at it.

Let's get in the f***in' cage.

All right, good fight, guys. Good fight.

Here. Right here.

Oh, almost. You know what,

I'm gonna fight like your daddy.

Nice.

Watch the wrist, man.

He's got you, bro. Just tap.

-He ain't tappin'.

-Dude, don't be a dummy, man. Tap.

He ain't gonna tap.

Are you okay?

-Zack told me you got hurt.

-Yeah, I'm fine.

I heard you were caught

in like some triangle thing.

Yeah, tell me about it.

-What?

-Nothing.

-Do you wanna come in?

-No.

I was just... I was just here to check on you.

-But you seem fine.

-Yeah, I feel okay.

I guess I could be better.

I mean, maybe I should've tapped.

Well, when you have the opportunity to tap,

maybe you should.

You know, I can come back later.

-In fact, I left something in the field house...

-No. I was just leaving. So, bye.

I am so sorry, bro.

No, it's okay, man.

Anyway, she's got a boyfriend.

Yo, man, maybe it's the headgear, man.

Take it off.

-What's wrong with your eye, man?

-Man, nothing's wrong. Come on.

Dude.

What, so if I tell you,

you don't let me train any more?

Nah, man, I put too much into this.

I need this.

What's up, man?

Doctor said I have a partially detached retina.

That's why I can't box any more.

That sucks, I guess.

Does this mean I can't train any more?

-Why not?

-What about the Beatdown?

I ain't your daddy, man.

If you wanna risk goin' blind, that's on you.

You don't think it's stupid?

-Me fighting with my condition?

-Of course, it's stupid.

But, hey, I ain't done a whole lot of things

most folks would agree with.

But I can live with my choices

as well as my consequences.

Can you?

Yeah.

Well, there it is then.

From now on,

you're a southpaw.

Work that jingle into your footwork.

All right? You gotta plan the footwork.

There you go.

Protect that eye. Keep that eye back.

Just like that. Left hand up.

Get that a**hole!

-Now for the next trick.

-Calm down, all right! Calm down!

Watch what I'm about to do.

To a b*tch's face.

Nobody touches me like that!

Hey, hold on, chief. Wait up.

-What's up, man?

-You made that look easy.

Yeah.

-You're Vail's kid, right?

-Yeah.

-I'm here to pick her up.

-You know who you are?

You're my new head of security.

How does $400 a night sound?

Sounds great, man.

-But on one condition.

-What's that?

You gotta fire my mom.

You got it.

Okay.

Remember, I told you

an angry mind is a narrow mind.

Whenever you're angry, you're only thinking

about what you can do to somebody.

You're not thinking

about what can happen to you.

Now that's how Justin got you.

Isn't anger good for fighting?

No. it's about emotional content. Not anger.

-Doesn't that anger make you work harder?

-No,

it just makes you feel like

you're working harder.

You're actually burning out your mind.

And where your mind goes,

your body follows.

It's better to make your opponent angry,

so you can control the fight.

The real test for you is to calm your mind.

Five, four, three, two,

and that's time.

All right. Hydrate.

Stretch. That means you, Justin.

What's wrong with you?

I don't know, man. My numbers are thin.

I got the diehard fight fans,

but that ain't that many tickets sold.

I gotta, like, broaden my base somehow.

I don't know what to tell you.

Save money on venue.

Use this place.

Thanks.

Dude. Dude!

Dude, come here. Time out. Check this out.

Check this out.

Hey, take a photo.

Yes. Yes, yes, yes. Yes!

Zack, are you crazy?

All the training,

all the work you've been through.

What, you're just gonna quit now?

I don't know, man.

I just don't see the point any more.

So you're not in the Beatdown?

Oh, that's too bad.

I mean come

on dude, really?

Dude, I mean, life is looking

pretty damn good. Haven't you noticed?

Why risk Iosin' my sight? it's stupid.

Hi, Zack. I saw your video.

-Yeah? What'd you think, beautiful?

-I thought it was hot.

Thanks, baby. That's real sweet of you.

What do you say we get out of here?

-What about your girlfriend?

-Yeah, what about Eve?

-What about her?

-I'm just sayin', baby.

I'm just sayin', why don't you mind

your own f***in' business, man?

I broke it off. You satisfied?

What do you say

we go to the Champagne Room?

Don't wait up, fellas.

Hey!

What the f***'s your problem?

I ain't got no problem.

Just cleaned your car. For free.

I think you owe me 10 bucks.

What the f***?

You don't remember me, do you?

Comic book store?

You stuck a knife in my belly.

So what the f*** you want?

I don't know. A kiss.

Damn, this isn't your day, boy.

You're next, b*tch.

Does it hurt?

Come on dog, look, look, look, we don't

want no more, all right, dog!

Look, my bad! Look, come on, bro.

Look, we were just foolin' around,

all right? Come on, dog. It's all good...

Just be quiet. I'm not gonna hurt you,
