Yeah, your guy is going down.

And with just one swing

of that mighty fist,

The Brute has tipped over

the Tower of Ringo.

Metaphor isn't your strong spot, Emily.

- Come on, man.

- Ringo, get up.

- No!

- We're gonna have to stop.

He's got something in his gloves.

- Gotta fight back, son.

- Hit him!

- What the hell's he doing?

- Losing.

Let's see you fight.

If I don't see you fight,

I gotta deduct a point.

Hey, stop.

Blue corner.

- One point.

- What the f***, ref? What the f***?

- Fight!

- God damn it.

- Oh, sh*t!

- You got him, you got him!

It's over!

- Yes!

- Yeah!

No no no.

Three punches with the other guy's fist.

- The other guy's fist!

- S-stop.

Okay, winner by knockout:

Ringo Duran.

Ringo!

Ringo Duran!

I don't f***in' believe it.

I don't f***in' believe it.

Hello, this is Sergio Ponzo.

Do you remember me?

Good good.

I'd like to meet with you.

I have a proposition for you.

Hey, Mr. Holland.

God damn it, Alonso.

You scared the sh*t out of me.

Listen, I got a lot of sh*t going on.

Why'd you want to meet anyways?

I wanted to meet because

you don't answer my phone calls.

We had an arrangement, Christopher.

What the f*** happened?

First of all, you got

a lot of goddamn nerve

breaking into my office.

- What are you, a f***ing idiot?

- I didn't guarantee you sh*t.

You didn't guarantee me sh*t?

You told me Ringo was gonna fall.

I bet $100,000 of my own money

on a 25:
1 shot.

You understand that?

Now luckily for you

I've figured out a way

that you could be a little more

personally invested in the next match.

- I've done all I can do.

- Really? You did all you can do?

That's all you can do?

I don't like getting backed

into corners.

When you're my f***in' dog,

I'll back you in any corner I want to.

- You know what? This is some bullshit!

- Bullshit?

Enough enough!

- I'll snap his neck right now.

- Yeah? I don't think so.

Because when your brains

are splattered on the wall,

you might lose a little coordination

and that's a Jersey promise.

F***.

Now this is how it's gonna go down.

They are going to fight

and you are going to make

a bet with your own money for me.

And our man Alonso here is gonna make it

a sure thing because

he will take the fall.

You got it?

And you are my dog now too.

So here's the deal.

You take the fall, a full knockout

in the second round.

Anything before that

will seem suspicious.

But it absolutely can't be

after the second round.

- You got it?

- This is messed up, man.

No no, Alonso, this isn't messed up.

This is business.

Now this one right here...

You're gonna bet

this horse is really hard.

I think he might be a pink.

Pink is the name of the jockey?

No, pink bays.

Pink.

- How you doing, champ?

- Doing great.

- What about the arm?

- Arm's great.

- Great?

- Kara done wonders.

- You did?

- Yeah, I did.

I'm getting a little worried

about the head right now,

that it's gonna split open

on you again.

It'll be fine.

If it bleeds,

they're gonna stop the fight.

- It's not going to bleed.

- If it does bleed--

this is what they're looking for.

Could you relax?

It's just another fight.

Hey, the MCW marketing people

just sent this down.

The hell it's just another fight.

I'm fine with the one I got, okay?

What about the t-shirts and mugs?

- Mugs?

- Yeah.

- Hi.

- Just give us a second here.

Thank you very much, kids.

You gotta start focusing here.

We're about to go

into a major fight with this guy.

The guy's gonna try and end this one

really early, all right?

He's very predictable, but he's gonna

come with that left kick, left kick--

- Right hook.

- That's right, that's right.

The left kick, the left kick,

the right cross.

- You gotta be ready for that right.

- Got it.

That's 11 seconds.

He's never seen a fight

go longer than two minutes.

This guy's got 25 amateur belts

for Christ's sakes.

Relax, I've read

"Sports Illustrated" too.

Well, okay, relax is not the point here.

I'm just trying to say

he's the golden boy.

He's a lottery ticket winner.

The pressure's on him,

it's not on you.

He couldn't grind it out out there

if you were to give him coffee beans.

He can't outlast you.

That's how we're gonna win this.

If he does connect with that right hand,

you're gonna have to suffer through it.

- Are you with me on this?

- I'm ready.

- Are you mad at me?

- Not now.

All right.

I want you mad at Alonso.

- I am. Now let's go.

- All right, you ready?

Come on, fight!

Come on, you're kidding.

What the f*** is Alonso doing?

Yes!

- Fight!

- Worry about yourself, old man.

- This is bullshit.

- Come on.

I'll give you two seconds

to break this off

or I'm going to f*** you up.

What's going on?

Let's finish this fight up.

- What's going on?

- I don't know.

- Did they work something out here?

- I don't know.

Well, it seems Ringo has completely

given up on Alonso.

Actually, Emily, I think it might be

the other way around.

Take him, Ringo!

Take him out right now!

Come on, this is bullshit.

That's the round.

That's the round.

What the hell are you guys

doing in here, huh?

What, are you ballroom dancing?

I wait and wait and wait

and he doesn't throw one punch.

If he doesn't want the match

and he's throwing you the match,

then take it.

Knock this guy out

if that's what he wants.

- Not without a fight.

- What is wrong with this man?

He won't do it.

He only knows one way to fight.

- All right, let's go.

- Take him out right now. End it.

All right, let's go.

End it.

Come on, right now.

Let's end this one.

Fight!

You're making a fool out of yourself.

You do what you do, I do what I do.

Don't disrespect the cage, man.

Hit me, old man.

Yeah!

How much?

How much for selling out?

- F*** you, man!

- There you go.

There you go.

Finish him!

- Come on, you just gonna give up?

- This is not Alonso Scott.

I don't know who this f***ing guy is.

He's not Alonso Scott.

It's Alonso Scott tonight.

- Come on, fight!

- F*** it.

There you go.

Now we got a fight.

Wait for it.

Wait for it.

And Alonso is back on the offensive.

Now 20 seconds can be a long time.

That's what I told your sister.

You a Duran fan now, Christopher?

Yes yes!

Take him out right now!

That's more like it.

Come on.

What the hell are you fighting for?

That's it.

That's the round.

- Here you go. All right, champ.

- Have a little water.

You're way ahead in this fight.

So if he mounts you,

I want you to turn away.

Full guard, all right.

That's a necessity.

We don't want that cut opening up again.

I don't wanna lose this fight

on a goddamn technicality.

Remember, watch out

for the left kick, left kick,

- and you watch for...

- Right hook.

That's right.

Left kick, left kick...

- Right hook!

- Okay, you're ready.

Hey, fighters, let's go.

Corners out.

Fight!

Good hit!

- You're bleeding.

- This ain't bleeding.

He's not bleeding.

He's fine. Let him go.

It's over, it's over.
