just as wrestling. Except you get

to punch the guy.

- Well, it was a hell of a fight, man.

- I warned you about the reverse, didn't I ?

- I thought ...

No, no, no. You don't think, you do.

You do what I say, then you win.

When you do what you think, you f***in' lose.

Look what happened.

You had it in position,

right? What did I say?

I said :
"stay close,

elbow !". didn't I ?

What did you do?

You sat straight up and got reverse.

And threw away a lot of money here.

It cost me big.

Your cut.. Your cage fee's mine.

You have a nice day.

Hey! We gonna work on that nose or what?

Come on, let's get out of here.

Good to see you, man.

Hang in there, Justin.

Wait, wait. Where are you going?

Curfew.

Oh, man. I know that was tough

to watch, but ...

But, you know, Justin

has a point.

You'd be a monster in that cage.

like wrestling to me...

You were All American, you were national

champion. I mean ...

we'd make a lot of scratch

if you'd be fighting.

- We?

- I saw scouts in there.

USMMA, Crush, UFC.

We could run for it. I could be your manager.

I Could help you train.

It's not for me, man.

Ah, come on, man, it's just...

it's wrestling mixed with

a little bit of punching

You are the best wrestler in the world.

I gotta get going.

it's cool, man. Stay and

watch the fights.

Allright, see you in the morning?

I'll give you a lift to work.

- Thanks, but I think ...
