It's not enough to put on
a hooligan t-shirt | and be good at fighting.
In a melee of 20 or 30 people | on each side,
20 guys are a fixed group.
If there's more than 20 guys needed, | there's a possibility
we take somebody with us.
We have 21 men...
...I'll go tell them we are here. | Then, we'll do a normal warm-up...
But if any of you have any problems | with knuckles or legs
he'll take care of that.
When did you begin | training martial arts?
I was in 7th grade. | But it was only Karate then...
Later came boxing, judo | and kickboxing and others.
And from these several disciplines, | I created my own style.
We wipe these motherfuckers | out of this planet. Right away...
...Wham-bam... and they're dead! | Then we cover one another.
...I'll tell you about that later.
Slightly worn, isn't it?
Most of the guys are training | various martial arts.
To be honest, to become | a hooligan you'll need
something more than just guts.
You need to know how to fight. | It's important.
Everyone wants to cope | with his life somehow.
If you work out at the gym...
...or train martial arts | it gives you a sense of security.
Because this grey reality | is not so beautiful...
not as they show you on TV.
Every style of fighting | requires training.
Guys who train only for brawls... | ...are using different techniques.
They learn how work as a team.
They prefer to fight in an | upright position.
You'd hardly see any fighting...
...on the ground, because it easier | to get kicked in the head.
Hooligans choose styles that are | suitable for brawls or street-fighting.
Kick him in the head, | but just for a starter.
Don't jump on him...
...or better don't kick at all. | Grab him and hit straight in the face.
Remember-use you elbows.
No jumping on anybody. | That's a rule.
If anyone falls down-watch his back. | If you see anyone on the ground...
...help him to fight of the guy. | But don't kick in the head.
Jump on him, three fast blows | and the motherf***er is out.
Do you teach anyone?
Yeah. I show them some tricks
but not to attack | accidental people.
You know why I do this?
My boxing coach used | to be a gymnastics teacher...
...in a primary school.
He told me he was showing | some basics to his pupils.
Remember, keep your head | low and...
And use your elbows, f***!
Keep shields on the other side.
Why do young people | train martial arts?
Some want to impress their friends, | others just need competition...
...or they want to learn how to fight | in order to defend themselves.
They do it for many reasons.
To be honest, I haven't | thought much about it.
They are in every section.
Each boxing, kickboxing | or judo section has a few...
...guys that fight in these brawls.
Some work out in a gym, | others train fighting...
...Anyway, the times when the fan | was associated
with a liquor bottle, are over.
Nowadays, football fans | are sportsmen.
They don't drink or do anything | to degrade
...their capabilities. | Otherwise, it would be pathetic.
A group of bums against | a group of fit men...
...can have only one result. | 30 seconds and it's all over.
They struggled to even get here. | Only 21 of them came.
They are f***ing sissies. | We've got to waste them right out!
I don't do it just because someone | made me do it. I really like it.
Probably most of my friends | would tell you the same.
Some do it to just show off and attract | someone's attention, that's for sure.
But me - I simply enjoy fighting. | That's what I am training for.
Brawls are just a break for me.
What do my parents think? | ...I'm sure they aren't happy.
Actually, there's nothing | good in being a hooligan.
Mom knows what I do | and what it's all about.
...Once she saw a tape by accident. | It was a year after a brawl.
She watched the tape | and finally understood...
...what had happened to me before.
She remembered how bad | I had looked then.
She noticed a date on the screen | and simply associated facts.
She was crying when I came home.
"How could you do this to me? | Why did you lie to me?"...and so on.
My father had a different attitude | because he is a man.
I'm not sure they ever | got used to it.
Every time I go somewhere,
my mother tells me to be careful.
I try not to talk about it to her.
...If I go out, I just say we go to | a match and stuff...
But I don't tell her about the brawls.
Do you love your parents, | your mother?
Yeah. I do.
- Why do you fight? What for? | - For pleasure. It's very relaxing.
You know, some like Mc Donald,
others watch porn movies | and feel pleasure.
I take pleasure from putting | on boxing gloves
or fighting on the ground.
This is my own pleasure. | And a break from reality.
It's an extreme form of a fight sport. | Similarly, you can ski for recreation...
...or jump on a parachute when | skiing in high mountains.
Every discipline has it.
Generally, people look for something | more challenging or choose simple things.
I do enjoy it.
It's not that I take pleasure | from kicking someone's ass...
It turns me on. | And it's a way to relieve stress.
You work several hours a day... | ...and you can let off some steam.
You sweat, give yourself | a physical strain...
...and, instead of being mean to | you family, you start feeling better.
Yet, some guys become | permanently disabled...
I'm not going to talk about | in front of the camera, Sylwester.
Let's just say that a few guys | were injured at one time or another.
But you can experience | the same on the street.
You can be beaten by some freak... | ...with a bottle or a bat.
It's just an example, you know.
But this may happen.
You don't regard yourself a bandit, | as people think hooligans...
No.
Why should we show it publicly? | We're not doing it for anyone...
...But you make films | and take pictures...
Yeah, but we do it only | for us-just to have a keepsake.
You take these pictures, right?
I can't afford a decent equipment
but I'm trying to make | it look professional.
Maybe in a few years we'll show it | to our kids or something.
Either it will be normal then,
or they'll be shocked to see | what we used to do.
When sixty people are fighting, | it's pretty hard to see everyone.
But the camera catches everything.
And we had cases when | guys proved weak.
Someone was kicking their friend | on the ground
and they were turning | their back...
Anyway, it would be nice to | watch it someday.
Just to see who we were.
It's not about fear or shame.
We simply don't want | people to watch it.
It won't change anything-even | when they see what it looks like.
Either way, they won't accept it.
It's brutal, full of coarse language,
there's blood-like in a real fight.
You beat as hard as you can.
And people are not going | to like it-that's for sure.
Still, I think, many people | understand that.
It's just a popular opinion | they don't.
It's even convenient for them.
