how your modesty sounds?
I'm doing all this for you.
Dozens of people
are here working for you.
Maybe that's not exactly
what I want.
What is it that you want?
- I want to be left in peace.
Peace?
When 30,000 people are watching
you getting beat up? - No, I...
I want peace before the match.
Now people are shoving
microphones in my face, asking, -
"How are you feeling?"
The film crew and this damn circus.
You have to understand -
that this damn circus pays
for everything.
where your mom's selling tickets
and your dad's selling pretzels.
Welcome to professional sports.
The scale is totally different.
Of course I want
to fight the match. I just...
...wish I didn't have to deal
with all the people and the fuss.
We can't have the match at the
Workers' Hall in your small town.
Raffle tickets. 20 marks each!
Pretzels, 30 marks a piece!
Davey Moore alone cost 12 million.
I understand, but I'd just
If you want peace,
I'll arrange it for you.
Well.
Are you going to be okay?
Yeah, I'll be fine.
Huh?
Davey Moore.
56.5 kilos.
Then Olli Maki.
- Olli.
Can you hold this?
Take your shorts off.
Take them off.
Olli Maki.
56.98 kilos.
Thank you.
Olli.
Good job. Great.
You did it. Olli, you did it.
Oh, we're taking pictures.
Let's go.
Olli, come take pictures with us.
Yes, we'll take these.
- Okay.
What do you want engraved on them?
- What do people usually have?
The date and the names.
Why don't you write:
Raija and Olli,
August 17th, 1962.
Is that okay?
- Yeah.
Okay. You can pick these up
on Monday. - Yes.
Just a moment.
- Thank you.
Remember that you've worked
a hell of a lot for this.
You've practiced
in the best possible way.
You'll go out there and enjoy.
Show them what you know.
Don't be afraid of anything,
not even losing.
You know you're safe.
we'll always be there for you.
I can do for you?
No. I'm ready.
Dear friends of boxing.
Ladies and gentlemen,
for the first time in Finland, -
a world championship match.
Ladies and gentlemen.
Placing second in the 7957
European Amateur Championships, -
winner of the 1959
European lightweight title.
Ladies and gentlemen, -
"The Baker of Kokkola, "
Olli Maki.
Keep your hands up. That's good.
Good.
Keep your feet moving.
You're doing great!
All right, go.
Move your feet.
That's the way.
Good. Good.
Get up. Get up.
Get Up!
Hands up.
Go, go, go!
Get up. UP!
Put your hands up.
Hands...
What happened?
What happened?
- It's over.
I couldn't see anything.
Ladies and gentlemen.
The winner and still champion...
Davey Moore.
All right. Where are the flowers?
I couldn't see him coming.
I think I had my chin too high.
Olli, how are you feeling?
I don't have much to say;
it happened so quickly.
How would you describe the match?
I think it was the easiest match
of my professional career -
in the sense
that it was over so quickly.
I've had full matches before,
15 rounds.
This was over after two rounds.
- Make some room, will you?
Put the camera down.
Elis, could you stand in the middle
and pose for the camera with Olli?
We're going to take the final shot.
Elis.
Let's go take the shot.
- Oh. Sure.
Should we leave?
- What?
Do you want to leave?
Let's stay another moment.
Olli. Come here.
Raija and I are leaving.
- No. Come here.
Bye!
You think we'll be like them?
You mean old?
- Yes, and happy.
Of course we will.
Okay.
One, two...
