Girl: WOULD YOU RELAX! DON'T WORRY, HE'S AMAZING.
COME ON. YOU HAVE TO MEET HIM.JUST CHILL OUT.
WHAT MAKES THIS GUY SO GREAT, JO?
JUST WAIT HERE.
MR. SLOAN?
WOULD YOU COME ON?
WHAT?
Jo: HEY, MR. SLOAN!
HEY, JO, DON'T YOU GUYS HAVE SCHOOL TODAY?
SUMMER VACATION STARTED YESTERDAY.
THIS HERE'S TOMMY.
HOW YOU DOING, TOMMY?
UHH. DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A CHAMPION TO ME.
COME ON!
SO, ARE YOU NEW IN TOWN, TOMMY?
NO. HE JUST GOT OUT OF JUVIE.
OH, HE CAN'T TALK FOR HIMSELF?
NAH. HE'S TOO BAD TO TALK.
I TOLD HIM ABOUT THAT THING YOU DO
WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED.
AW, THE ROCK IN THE RIVER?
YEAH. THAT'S IT.
LATER, JO.
CHICKEN SHIT.
I TELL YOU WHAT, TOMMY...
YOU TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT.
[CHUCKLES]
UNH!
YOU KNOW WHAT, TOMMY?
SOMETIMES WHEN YOU'RE BLIND, AND TIMES SEEM DARKEST,
YOU OFTEN SEE THINGS MORE CLEARLY.
COME BY THE GYM SOMETIMES,
I'LL SHOW YOU HOW IT'S DONE.
[CLEARS THROAT]
LOOKS LIKE A CHAMPION TO ME.
YOU DIDN'T PUT THAT TAPE ON TOO TIGHTLY,
THAT YOU DO ALL THE TIME, DID YOU, JANELLE?
SHUT UP!
ELECTRIC NOTICE, OK?
SECOND TIME.
SO, PAY IT.
WITH WHAT?
AW, COME ON, WILL YOU, JACK?
WE GOT TO TALK, DAVID.
Kids: SHH! SHH! QUIET!
THE MOST DANGEROUS WEAPON IN THE UNIVERSE IS A FOCUSED MIND.
YOUR MIND SHOULD BE LIKE A STILL, CALM POOL.
TRANQUIL, RELAXED.
HEY, ONE VIOLENT EMOTION... IT'S LIKE TAKING A ROCK
AND DROPPING IT INTO THAT SMOOTH POND.
EVERYTHING'S CHAOS.
CONCENTRATION IS LOST.
NOW, BRIAN HERE IS GOING TO SHOW US HOW TO LOSE WITH DIGNITY AND GRACE.
READY?
ANY TIME, OLD MAN.
HA! SEE, HE'S TRYING TO THROW A ROCK INTO MY POND.
HEY!
KNOCK DOWN ENDS THE LESSON.
YEAH! COME ON! HIT HIM!
COME ON! OOH!
Kid: OH, MAN!
GO, MAN, GO! YEAH.
COME ON! GET HIM! YEAH!
WATCH OUT! KEEP GOING! OH, YEAH!
NOT EVEN CLOSE!
UNH!
OOH! YEAH!
ROCK IN THE POND.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
I TOLD YOU, KNOCK DOWN ENDS THE LESSON.
THAT WAS A SLIP.
IF IT HAD BEEN A REAL FIGHT, I'D HAVE WON.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT REAL FIGHTS?
LESSON'S OVER.
LISTEN, I'M SORRY.
I JUST WANT TO BE AS GOOD AS YOU.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.YOU'RE GOING TO BE BETTER.
YOU'RE A HELL OF A FIGHTER, KID.
A HELL OF A FIGHTER!
AND DAVID SLOAN.
THE LAST OF THE GREATS LOAN DYNASTY.
I SAW YOUR EXHIBITION THIS SUMMER.
IT WAS, UH, SUBLIME.
A RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE.
JUSTIN MACIAH... SPORTS VISIONARY.
I CREATED UNITED KICKBOXING ASSOCIATION.
IS THIS ONE OF YOUR FUTURE CHAMPS?
YEAH. SOMEDAY.
HE NEEDS A LITTLE BIT OF WORK, BUT HE'S PRETTY SHARP.
HE TOOK YOU APART, SLOAN. THAT LAST MOVE,
THAT WAS A WOMAN'S BULLSHIT MOVE, MY FRIEND.
HE HAS HIS PROBLEMS WITH THE SLOANS.
BOTH YOUR BROTHERS BEAT HIM IN THE RING.
NEIL VARGAS.
YEAH. HEAVYWEIGHT KICKBOXING CHAMP.
CAN WE TALK BUSINESS, DAVID?
I HAVE A BUSINESS, JUSTIN.
HOW LONG CAN YOU HOLD ONTO THIS, HUH?
A MONTH? TWO? COME ON!
IT'S A DINOSAUR.I'M GOING TO TAKE
A SMALL-TIME SPORT, AND TURN IT
INTO ANINTERNATIONAL COMMODITY.
AND I NEED A SPOKESPERSON.
SOMEONE THE FIGHTERS AND THE CORPORATE SPONSORS RESPECT.
CABLE CONTRACTS, PRODUCT ENDORSEMENTS,
MERCHANDISING.
THE WORD IS... I THINK THE WORD
YOU'RE LOOKING FORIS HYPE.
THIS IS SOMETHING PEOPLE WAIT
THEIR WHOLE LIVES FOR.
THIS COULD BE YOUR LAST CHANCE TO BE SOMEBODY.
I AM SOMEBODY. YOU SEE?
I'M A TEACHER.
I DON'T THINK I WANT ANY PART OF YOUR LITTLE 3-RING CIRCUS.
I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED, DAVID.
YOU SHOULD LEARN TO LIVE WITH DISAPPOINTMENT, MACIAH.
BUILDS CHARACTER.
COME ON, NEIL.
CALL ME WHEN YOU'RE READY, BRIAN.
Brian: SOME OF WHAT HE SAID MADE SENSE.
COME ON, BRIAN.
THAT GUY'S A CON MAN.
I'VE SEEN PEOPLE LIKE HIM ALL MY LIFE.
HE'S GOING TO TAKE A SPORT THAT WE BOTH LOVE,
THAT WE'D DIE FOR, AND DESTROY IT.
HE SAID I'M READY TO TURN PRO.
SO, YOU THINK I'M HOLDING YOU BACK, HUH, CHAMP?
NAH.
YOU COMING OVER FOR DINNER TONIGHT?
YEAH. WHAT'S COOKING?
MOM'S POT ROAST.
SHEESH! OH!
LISTEN, SHE THINKS EVERYBODY LIKES IT.
YEAH. NOT A WORD FROM ME.I PROMISE.
LISTEN, WHY DON'T YOU GO HIT THE WEIGHTS?
GET OUT OF HERE!
HEY!
WHO'S THE WISE GUY?
NAME'S JOEY DiANGELO.
I CAME HERE TO FIGHT.
THIS LOW-LIFE'S IN HERE CHALLENGING OUR STUDENTS.
SO, YOU WANT TO FIGHT, HUH, JOEY?
YEAH. WHAT ABOUT IT, ASSHOLE?
I WANT TO TRAIN.
YOU GOT MONEY FOR LESSONS?
IF I HAD MONEY, DO YOU THINK I'D BE IN THIS CRAPPY DUMP?
I HEARD YOU GIVE FREE ONES.
YEAH? YOU HEARD WRONG!
YOU WANT TO TRAIN HERE? YOU GOT TO PROVE YOURSELF.
YOU'LL CLEAN THE BATHROOMS.
WHEN YOU SEE ME, YOU SMILE.
YOU SAY, "GOOD MORNING, MR. SLOAN."
LIKE YOU ENJOY IT.
I CATCH YOU NOT SMILING ONE TIME,
I'M GOING TO THROW YOU OUT ON THE STREETS,
YOU GOT THAT?
NOW, WHAT MAKES YOU THINK
YOU'RE GOOD ENOUGH TO TRAIN?
HE'S NOT.
I MEAN, LOOK AT THE KID.
HE'S SMALL.OBVIOUSLY, HE'S WEAK.
IF YOU WASN'T A CHICK, I'D RIP OFF YOUR DAMN HEAD.
GET WHAT I'M SAYING?
YOU KNOW SOMETHING?
YOU TALK TO MUCH.
AND YOU SHOULDN'T SWEAR ALL THE TIME.
WHEN YOU SWEAR ALL THE TIME, IT LOSE SITS MEANING.
YOU GOT THAT?
GO TO HELL.SHH!
OK, HERE'S THE DEAL.YOU KICK THIS BAG500 TIMES
AND I'LL TRAIN YOU.YOU GOT THAT?
GONNA KICK THAT BAG5 BILLION TIMES.
500 TIMES WILL BE JUST FINE.
I'M TELLING YOU, YOU'RE IN TROUBLE.
YOU'RE 2 MONTHS BEHIND
ON THE MORTGAGE PAYMENT.
THESE ARE ALL OUTSTANDING BILLS.
YOU GOT ANY SUGGESTIONS?
YEAH. START FIGHTING AGAIN.
ASIDE FROM THAT?
FIGHTING PAYS THE BILLS, MAN.
THAT'S HOW YOUR BROTHERS MADE THIS GYM.
I CAN GET YOU SOME EXHIBITION BOUTS,
LIKE KURT USED TO TAKE.
YEAH... WELL, FIGHTING KILLED HIM.
WHAT KILLED YOUR BROTHERS WAS FIGHTING IN THAILAND.
[SIGHS] LOOK, I KNOW YOU NEVER THOUGHT
YOU WERE AS GOOD AS YOUR BROTHERS.
NOT AS STRONG, NOT AS FAST.
BUT KURT AND ERIC ALWAYS SAID YOU HAD THE BIGGEST HEART.
AND HEART CAN WINS LOT OF FIGHTS.
JUST THINK ABOUT IT, DAVID.
MEANWHILE, WE GOT BILLS TO PAY.
I'M NOT GOING TO FIGHT ANYMORE, JACK.
OK, THEN.
AT LEAST RAISE THE MAT RATES AND LOCKER FEES.
YOU KNOW, MOST OF THESE FIGHTERS
CAN'T AFFORD THE RATES WE'RE CHARGING THEM NOW.
WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT PHASING OUT THE YOUTH PROGRAM.
WE'RE NOT PHASING IT OUT!
WHAT ARE YOU, MOTHER THERESA?
WHAT ABOUT AEROBICS CLASSES? THEY MAKE MONEY.
[LAUGHS] AEROBICS CLASSES.
MAN, KURT AND ERIC WOULD COME BACK
FROM THE GRAVE AND BEAT MY ASS.
[CHUCKLES]
DAVID...
I'VE BEEN IN THIS GYM SINCE YOUR BROTHERS STARTED IT.
YOU SEEMED LIKE A KID BROTHER TO ME.
THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH I CAN DO.
HEY, YOU KNOW I APPRECIATE
EVERYTHING YOU'RE DOING FOR ME.
HERE. GIVE ME THOSE.
GO ON, GET OUT OF HERE.
I'LL DO WHAT I CAN HERE.
I GOT TO FIX MY FEET.
YEAH. YEAH, YOU FIX YOUR FEET.
I GOT A DATE WITH AN OVER-COOKED POT ROAST.
HEY, JACK...
THANKS, MAN.
OK.
UNH!
HOW'S HE DOING?
HE DID ABOUT 367.
HE PROBABLY HAS ABOUT 133 LEFT.
HEY, TOUGH GUY... WHAT?
YOU GOT A PLACE TO STAY?
I GOT 1,000 PLACES.
YOU GOT A COT DOWN IN THE BASEMENT IF YOU FINISH YOUR TEST.
YOU GOT THAT?
DON'T LET HIM CRIPPLE HIMSELF, HUH?
YEAH.
Brian's mom: HOW IS IT?
OH, IT'S GREAT, MRS. WAGNER.
YEAH. IT'S GREAT, MOM.
I THINK I OVER-COOKED ITS LITTLE.
NAH. IT'S PERFECT.
I'M GETTING THE HELL OUT OF HERE AND GOING FOR A WALK.
WHOA! IT'S YOUR TURN TO WASH THE DISHES.
NAH. IT'S KRISTEN'S TURN.
MOM...
BRIAN'S GETTING TOUGH TO LIVE WITH.
YEAH.
HERE, I'LL HELP YOU OUT WITH THIS.
I GOT TO GO TO SUSIE'S.
SEE YOU LATER, DAVID.
YEAH.
BRIAN SAID HE HAD AN OFFER TO BECOME A PROFESSIONAL.
YEAH. THAT'S RIGHT.
HE'S READY, ISN'T HE?
YEAH. I MEAN, AS A FIGHTER, HE'S READY.
IN THE RING, HE'S AS GOOD AS I'VE EVER SEEN.
BUT, UH...
HE'S JUST NOT READY IN OTHER WAYS.
BRIAN HAS HIS MIND SETON DOING THIS NOW,
AND NO ONE CAN TALK HIM OUT OF IT.
LOOK AFTER HIM.
DON'T LET HIM GET HURT.
YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES IT'S BETTER TO FLOW THAN TO ATTACK.
SOMETIMES IT'S BETTER TO ATTACK.
YEAH.
AND THE WISE MAN KNOWS WHEN TO DO WHICH, RIGHT?
YEAH, WELL, DAD USED TO WORK IN A FACTORY12 HOURS A DAY.
HE FLOWED.
WHAT DID IT GET HIM?
A HEART ATTACK.BOOM.
IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN TO ME.
RIGHT. AT LEAST LET ME GET YOU A GOOD MANAGER.
MACIAH'S WRONG FOR YOU.
YOU'RE WRONG FOR ME, DAVID.
I MEAN, WHO ARE YOU TO GIVE ME ADVICE?
YOU'RE ABOUT TO LOSE YOUR BROTHERS' GYM, FOR CHRIST'S SAKE.
DON'T TRY TO DRAG ME DOWN WITH YOU.
HEY... STAY THE FUCK OUT OF MY WAY.
JACK... YEAH. IT'S ME.
LISTEN, SET ME UP WITH THAT FIGHT, OK?
BEFORE I CHANGE MY MIND.
YEAH.
David: LET'S GO. BOY, YOU'RE ALL COMING
ALONG GREAT.I'M REALLY PROUD OF YOU.
EVERYTHING LOOKS REALLY GOOD.
AND DON'T WORRY ABOUT BEING THE SAME AS THE OTHER GUY,
BECAUSE EVERYBODY'S DIFFERENT.WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN DIFFERENT STYLES.
THERE'S KARATE, JUDO, JUJITSU, KICKBOXING.
BUT ALL THESE DIFFERENT DISCIPLINES HAVE ONE THING IN COMMON...
A SINGLE GOAL.
YEAH! TO KICK ASS.SHUT UP!
THANK YOU FOR POINTING OUT THE UNIVERSAL TRUTH.
A SMALL MIND AND A BIG MOUTH ARE USUALLY FOUND TOGETHER.
[ALL LAUGH]
CONTROL, RIGHT.CONTROL IS EVERYTHING.
WHETHER YOU'RE A FIGHTER, A CARPENTER,
OR A LAWYER, OR A BANKER...
WHATEVER YOU DO, THE OBSTACLES YOU
FACE IN LIFE IS GOING TO BE THE SAME.
DAILY LIFE IS FULL OF OBSTACLES AND TEMPTATIONS.
IT'S GOING TO TRY AND BREAK THE SMOOTH SURFACE OF THE MIND.
CONTROL IS HOW YOU OVERCOME THESE TEMPTATIONS.
YOU CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONS,
YOU CONTROL YOUR LIFE.
OK. HIT THE SHOWERS.
DAVID...
I CAN'T HARDLY BLAME HIM.
YEAH. RIGHT.
SO, WHAT'D YOU GET?
SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE CIVIC.
WHO?
NEIL VARGAS.
AW, JESUS CHRIST, JACK. THAT'S A U.K.A. BOUT.
THERE'S NO OTHER BOUTS TO BE HAD. EVERYBODY'S CAVING IN TO MACIAH.
I GOT YOU A GOOD DEAL.
LOOK, IF IT MAKES YOU FEEL ANY BETTER,
YOU DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER OPTIONS.
[DOOR CLOSES]
Jack: YOU GUYS KNOW WHERE THE LOCKER ROOM IS,
DON'T YOU? BE THERE IN A BIT.
YOUR BROTHERS WOULD HAVE BEEN REAL PROUD OF YOU TODAY.
WHY DON'T YOU BE HERE BY YOURSELF AND GET READY,
THEN COME ON BACK AND WE'LL GET WARMED UP.
Man: WE ALL WALK IN THE SHADOW OF THOSE WHO GO BEFORE US, MR. SLOAN.
I'M SANGA. MACIAH'S BUSINESS PARTNER IN THE U.K.A.
WELCOME.
YOU HAVE A LOT RIDING ON YOU THIS EVENING.
I JUST CAME BY TO WISH YOU GOOD LUCK.
THANKS.
TIME! GET THE TOWEL.
BETTER WATCH IT, DAVID.NO CHEAP SHOTS.
YOU GOT TO BE A TECHNICIAN OUT THERE.
STICK AND JAB, BOB AND WEAVE.
IT'S TIME TO ROCK AND ROLL.

[MEN CHATTERING]
KING OF THE RING, BABY, KING OF THE RING.
LEAD WITH THE JAB, LOWER THE KNEES.
HIGH AND LOW, BABY, HIGH AND LOW.
HIGH AND LOW.JUST KARATE, YOU WON'T SWEAT.
PROTECT YOUR ARM.

KING OF THE RING, MAN, KING OF THE RING.
TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT.
D-DAY.
[BOTH GIVING INSTRUCTIONS]
YOU WON'T WORK WITH MACIAH, BUT YOU'LL TAKE ON HIS FIGHTERS.
I DON'T SEE THE DIFFERENCE.
THE DIFFERENCE IS HE DOESN'T OWN ME.
LET'S GO, CHAMP.
[CROWD YELLING]
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN...
THE UNITED KICKBOXING ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA
WELCOMES YOU TO YOUR MAIN EVENT.
[CROWD CHEERING]
IN THIS CORNER...
IN HIS FIRST FIGHT IN OVER 2 YEARS,
DAVID SLOAN!
DAVID SLOAN...
OF THE LEGENDARY FIGHTING SLOANS.
AND IN THIS CORNER..
THE U.K.A. HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION NEIL VARGAS!
[CROWD YELLING]
TO GIVE THE BOXERS THEIR INSTRUCTIONS, HERE'S YOUR REFEREE
JUDO GENE LeBELL.
LeBell: ALL RIGHT, I WANT A CLEAN FIGHT FROM BOTH OF YOU.
OK, VARGAS,
NONE OF YOUR WRESTLING BULLSHIT.
SLOAN, NO AIKIDO.
NOW, YOU KNOW THE U.S. COMMISSION RULES.
NO KNEES, NO ELBOWS, YOU MUST HIT WITH A CLOSED FIST.
I WANT YOU TO SHAKE HANDS.GO TO YOUR CORNER.
WHEN YOU HEAR THE BELL, COME OUT FIGHTING.
BEST OF LUCK.
OK, REMEMBER, THIS GUY'S BEEN OFF FOR A YEAR AND A HALF.
LET'S JUMP RIGHT ON HIM AND GET HIM OUT OF THERE.
I'M GONNA HURT YOU, SLOAN!
[BELL RINGS]

[CROWD CHEERING]
5... 6... 7... 8... 9...
10. YOU'RE OUT! WINNER!
[CROWD CHEERS]
SLOAN, THAT WAS AN INCREDIBLE COMEBACK.
WHAT WAS THE KEY TO YOUR VICTORY?
U.K.A. IS ALL HYPE. JUST LIKE HIS PAPER CHAMPIONS.
WELL, DAVID, YOU'RE NOT IMPLYING THAT...
NO, I'M SAYING.
THAT U.K.A. IS CROOKED
AND IS DRUG-RIDDEN.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS, DAVID? WHO'S YOUR NEXT OPPONENT?
THERE WILL BE NONE.AS OF NOW, I'M RETIRING.
I GOT WHAT I CAME FOR.
WELL, THERE YOU HAVE IT.I DON'T KNOW
WHAT'S MORE SHOCKING, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
THE FIGHT OR THIS ANNOUNCEMENT BY DAVID SLOAN AFTERWARDS.
THAT HE IS, ESSENTIALLY, RETIRING.
THERE WILL BE NO MORE FIGHTS.
Justin: GOD DAMN HIM!
SOME CHAMPION!
IT HASN'T BEEN AN HOUR SINCE HE SPOUTED OFF TO THE PRESS
AND ALREADY I'M GETTING CALLS!
TRENTEX AND THE OTHER SPONSORS
WANT TO PULL OUT THEIR MONEY AND SUPPORT.
EDWARDS FROM THE STATE LICENSING BOARD IS ON MY ASS!
SLOAN'S GONNA BRING THIS WHOLE THING DOWN.
HE MUST FIGHT AGAIN.
SEE TO IT THAT HE ACCEPTS ANOTHER CHALLENGE.
WAIT A MINUTE.YOU HEARD HIM.
NOBODY'S GONNA GET HIM INTO THE RING AGAIN.
BESIDES, WHAT THE HELL GOOD IS THAT GONNA DOME, ANYWAY?
REVENGE.
TAKE HIS WORLD OUT FROM UNDER HIM.
DOES THAT SUIT YOUR NEEDS?
[CAR HONKS]
SLEEP EASY, TOUGH GUY.
Man: HERE'S A LITTLE PAYBACK, SLOAN!
DAVID!
OK, THAT'S ENOUGH.LET'S GET OUTTA HERE. COME ON!
DAVID!
Jack: THE BOY DIED, DAVY. I'M SORRY.
Brian: JACK'S BRINGING SOMEONE TO HELP YOU.
YOUR BROTHER'S TEACHER FROM THAILAND.
WHO ARE YOU?
XIAN.
XIAN?
HOW'D YOU GET HERE?
SUPER SAVER.
I ALSO GOT FREE RENTAL CAR
AND HALF-PRICE TICKETS TO DISNEYLAND.
JUST GET OUTTA HERE, OK?
MAKE ME.
JUST LEAVE ME ALONE.
LET ME TELL YOU THE STORY
ABOUT THE MOUSE AND THE ALLIGATOR.
LOOK, A KID JUST DIED BECAUSE OF ME,
SO I'M NOT IN THE MOOD FOR ANY OF THIS, OK?
I'M SORRY.
IF YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR, YOU MUST MAKE ME STOP.
FINE. TELL ME THE STUPID STORY ABOUT THE STUPID FUCKING MOUSE.
VERY WELL, IF YOU INSIST.
ONCE, A VERY LONG, LONG TIME AGO,
THERE WAS A MOUSE WHO WANTED TO CROSS A RIVER.
OR WAS IT A CHICKEN?
WOULD YOU LIKE SOME COFFEE?
Man: PLEASE.
I HAVE A JOB FOR YOU.
TO UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE, I MUST RELATE TO YOU
WHAT HAPPENED A YEAR AGO IN THAILAND.
DAVID SLOAN'S BROTHER, KURT, DEFEATED OUR CHAMPION, TONG PO.
HE SHAMED OUR NATION.
WE SOUGHT A REMATCH.
THEN, ONE NIGHT, CONSUMED BY HIS HUMILIATION,
TONG PO MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO EVER REGAIN OUR WRONG.
[THUNDER]
[TRAIN WHISTLE]
AT THE MOMENT, IT SEEMED THAT
THERE WOULD NEVER BE A CHANCE TO REGAIN OUR HONOR.
THEN I LEARNED OF SLOAN'S BROTHER, DAVID.
NOW, AS YOU KNOW, IN OUR TRADITION,
IF A FATHER COULD NOT DEFEND
HIS FAMILY'S HONOR, THEN A SON WOULD.
DAVID SLOAN WILL GIVE TONG PO
THE REMATCH THAT HIS BROTHER'S DEATH DENIED US.
WHAT ABOUT HIS INJURIES?
KURT SLOAN'S TEACHER'S COME FROM THAILAND TO HEAL DAVID.
EVEN IF HE HEALS, WILL SLOAN FIGHT?
ONE GUESS.
MAKE SURE NOTHING HAPPENS TO DAVID SLOAN.
OR YOU WILL PAY WITH YOUR LIFE.
ARRANGE A MEETING BETWEEN MACIAH
AND DAVID'S FORMER STUDENT, BRIAN WAGNER.
TO CATCH A TIGER, ONE MUST BAIT THE TRAP.
Maciah: MR. SANGA WANTED US TO MEET, BRIAN.
GLAD YOU COULD COME BY.
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS PLACE.
I THINK I'LL BE HAPPY HERE.
WHAT ABOUT YOU, BRIAN?
ARE YOU HAPPY?
I'M DOING OK.
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
YOUR INSTRUCTOR SAYS YOU'RE NOT WORKING OUT.
DAVID SAID YOU HAD SOMETHING TO DO
WITH THE BURNING DOWN OF THE GYM.
WOULD I RISK LOSING ALL THIS?
AND WHAT WOULD I HAVE TO GAIN BY HURTING HIM?
NOTHING.
THE POLICE HAVE CLEARED ME.
VARGAS ACTED ON HIS OWN.
YOU SEE, IF A MAN LIKE DAVID LOSES EVERYTHING,
HE HAS TO BLAME SOMEBODY ELSE.
HE CREATES ENEMIES.
I USED TO BE LIKE THAT ONCE.
PEOPLE THOUGHT I WAS NOTHING WHEN I WAS GROWING UP.
YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT IT'S LIKE
GROWING UP HATING WHO YOU ARE?
I STRUGGLED ALL MY LIFE TO PROVE THEM WRONG.
I WAS GONNA BE SOMEBODY.
I WAS GONNA MAKE IT BIG, NO MATTER WHAT.
YOU HAVE, MR. MACIAH.
I HAVE AN OFFER TO MAKE YOU, BRIAN.
I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO LIKE IT.
YOU WANT TO FIGHT FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP?
YEAH.
GOOD.
Woman: LET'S HAVE A LOOK.
YOU'RE VERY LUCKY, DAVID.
HOW DO YOU FEEL?
PRETTY LOUSY.
EXCUSE ME?
NOTHING. I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT SOMEBODY.
[GRUNTING]
MORE STRENGTH, BRIAN! I NEED MORE STRENGTH.
IF YOU CAN'T GIVE ME MORE STRENGTH,
I'M GONNA DOUBLE YOUR REGIMEN.
WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOU?
THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR HANGING AROUND
THAT WRONG KID'S GYM FOR SO LONG.
I'M TAPPED OUT.
IF YOU COULD JUST SIGN WHERE INDICATED
IN TRIPLICATE, THEN YOU CAN BE ON YOUR WAY.
P.A.: DR. FOREST, PLEASE DIAL 118.
MAY WE BEGIN NOW?
LOOK, MAN, I DON'T WANT NONE OF YOUR HELP, OK?
I DON'T WANT ANYONE NEAR ME RIGHT NOW.
YOU NEED ME.IT'S SIMPLE LOGIC.
YOU KNOW, YOU DIDN'T DO MY BROTHERS ANY GOOD.
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GONNA DO FOR ME?

GO AWAY.
Jo: IT'S JO.
JUST GO AWAY.
UNLOCK THE DOOR!
IT'S NOT LOCKED.IT'S JUST STUCK.
YOU LOOK LIKE SHIT.
WHAT YOU'RE DOING TO PEOPLE ISN'T FAIR.
YOU ALWAYS BELIEVED IN TEACHING BY EXAMPLE, RIGHT?
WELL, WHAT KIND OF EXAMPLE IS THIS, SLOAN?
YOU KNOW, JOEY'S DEAD BECAUSE OF ME.
IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.
WHY DON'T YOU TALK TO XIAN?
HE HELPED YOUR BROTHERS.
WHY CAN'T HE HELP YOU, TOO?
[CHILDREN PLAYING]
[DOOR OPENS]
JANELLE, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE.
[FOOTSTEPS]
GET UP.
WHAT DO YOU WANT, MAN?
GET UP!
YOU ARE SLOW!
HEY!
I'M NOT AS GOOD AS KURT AND ERIC. I NEVER WAS.
AND YOU NEVER WILL BE.
IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE THINKING?
HEY, DON'T PUSH ME.
STOP ME, THEN.
GO ON. HIT ME.
UHH. GOD.
I THINK I'M WASTING MY TIME.
YOU THINK BY COMING HERE AND TRAINING ME,
EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE OK!
THAT I'M GONNA GET JOEY BACK, AND MY GYM, AND MY STUDENTS.
YOU THINK EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE OK.
NOT AN EASY TASK.
BUT I CAN TEACH YOU HOW TO WALK.
WALK.
I KNOW HOW TO WALK.
REALLY? SHOW ME.
OHH!
CAN YOU MOVE?
UNH!
[GRUNTING]
GEE, THANKS.
[GRUNTING]
Man: COME ON! LET'S GO!
DOUBLE UP! DOUBLE IT UP!
COME ON! GET IT!

DOUBLE IT UP! COME ON! DOUBLE IT UP!
WHAT ARE YOU? A PUSSY? LET'S SEE A GOOD FIGHT.
HIT IT! HIT IT! HIT IT!
COME ON, BOY! WHAT DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE FIGHTING OUT THERE? A PUSSY?

[BELL RINGS]
[CROWD CHEERS]

[CROWD CHEERS]
[APPLAUSE]
HEH.
[GROANS]
NOW, WHAT IS THE SECOND STEP IN TRAINING?
WHAT DO I KNOW? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, RIGHT?
I'M GETTING OLD.
I FORGET THINGS.
RIGHT NOW, I FORGET HOW TO BEGIN.
YOUR STRENGTH, RIGHT?
YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO TEST THE LIMITS OF YOUR STRENGTH.
YOU BEGIN FROM THERE.
I MEAN, HOW DID YOU TRAIN KURT?
JESUS.
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE GOING SENILE.
STRONGER THE BODY, STRONGER THE MIND.
OR IS IT THE STRONGER THE MIND, THE STRONGER THE BODY?
IT'S ONE OF THOSE 2.
YEAH.
OK.
PICK UP THE ROPE.
DO YOU HAVE A FIRM GRASP?
YEAH.
NOW, TELL ME WHAT'S DOWN THERE.
AHH!
HMM.
NEIGHBORHOOD'S GOIN' TO SHIT.
NOW, YOU HAVE TO CLIMB BACK UP.
SOMETIMES I FORGET GIRLS CAN BE SO BEAUTIFUL.
HEH. WHAT ARE YOU, A DIRTY OLD MAN?
THE GIRLS, THE WEATHER, THE SUN, THE SEA.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL.
SO WHAT?
MY WIFE WAS BEAUTIFUL.
HEY, I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE MARRIED.
A LONG TIME AGO.
WE NEVER DID HAVE A CHILD.
BUT MY NIECE MYLEE, SHE BECAME OURS.
AND THEN SHE MET YOUR BROTHER KURT.
OH, YEAH.
SORRY 'BOUT THAT.
IN LIFE, YOU'RE ONLY LIVING IF YOU MOVE FORWARD.
SO I MOVE FORWARD.
ONE STEP AT A TIME.
BUT ALWAYS FORWARD.
YOU HAVE LEARNED HOW TO WALK, DAVID.
FIGHTING A CHAMPION IN A COUPLE OF DAYS.
THIS'LL MAKE YOU STRONGER.
DON'T YOU THINK WE OUGHT A WAIT A FEW MINUTES?
UNTIL MY BODY'S MORE RELAXED?
THIS WAY, EVERY MUSCLE CELL GETS A FULL DOSE.
JESUS. WHAT A RUSH.
MY BODY FEELS LIKE IT'S GONNA EXPLODE.
IT'LL PASS.
SEE YOU IN THE SPARRING RING IN 5 MINUTES.
EXCUSE ME FOR DISTURBING YOU.
I'M SANGA.
OH, YEAH. YOU'RE MR. MACIAH'S PARTNER.
I MUST SAY, OUR TRAINING METHODS IN THAILAND ARE DIFFERENT.
WELL, WE'RE MORE ADVANCED IN AMERICA.
BUT YOU GUYS MAKE GREAT STEREOS AND SHIT.
THINKING OF JAPAN, PERHAPS?
OH, YEAH.
IT'S ALL RIGHT, BRIAN.
MOST OF US DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT AMERICA, EITHER.
WELL, I JUST WANTED TO WELCOME YOU TO OUR FAMILY.
WISH YOU GOOD LUCK.
THANKS, MR. SANGA.
I BELIEVE YOU HAD A DIFFERENT TRAINER BEFORE YOU CAME TO US.
HIS NAME WAS, UH... DAVID SLOAN.
OH, YES.
AND WHY HE'S NO LONGER WITH YOU?
WE SORT OF WENT OUR SEPARATE WAYS.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN STUDENT AND TEACHER IS VERY SACRED.
YOU HAVE A BIG FIGHT COMING UP.
MR. SLOAN MUST BE THERE TO SHARE WITH YOU IN THE MOMENT OF GLORY.
I DON'T THINK HE'D COME.
HE BROUGHT YOU THIS FAR.
ASK HIM, BRIAN.
[CAR ALARM BEEPS]
HEY, DAVID.
HEY, BRIAN.
HOW'S THE LEG?
IT ITCHES.
LISTEN, DAVID. I WANT TO HELP YOU OUT.
I'VE GOT PLENTY OF MONEY.
YOU KIDDING ME OR WHAT?
FORGET ABOUT IT.
I'M FIGHTING LOU LESCANO
FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
I HEARD YOU HAD A FIGHT NOT LESS THAN 2 WEEKS AGO.
I CAN HANDLE IT.YEAH. I BET.
WHAT, ARE YOU TAKING VITAMINS TO KEEP UP YOUR STRENGTH?
I'VE GOT THE BEST TRAINERS.
YEAH. THAT MONEY CAN BUY, RIGHT?
DAVID, I REALLY WANT YOU TO BE THERE.
HERE'S SOME TICKETS.
BRING MY MOM.

Mrs. Wagner: NO! I'M SORRY.
OH, NO! OH, GOD!
HE CAN'T BE DEAD!
NO!
THE MATCH IS YOURS.HERE. 2 HOURS.
YEAH. LET'S GO.
THANKS.
WHY DON'T YOU TELL ME ONE OF YOUR STORIES, XIAN?
COME ON, ONE OF THOSE, UH... ANIMAL STORIES.
ONCE THERE WAS AN ELEPHANT AND A RHINOCEROS.
THE ELEPHANT WAS UNSTOPPABLE WHEN HE WAS ON THE RUN.
AND WHEN THE RHINOCEROS WANTED TO STAY WHERE HE WAS,
HE WAS IMMOVABLE.
THE ELEPHANT KNEW THAT.
ONE DAY, THE ELEPHANT
DECIDED TO CHARGE THE RHINOCEROS.
YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED?
THEY KILLED EACH OTHER.
YOU HAVE HEARD THIS BEFORE.
NO.
I GUESS I'M JUST GETTING TO KNOW YOU, THAT'S ALL.
SO, I AM NO LONGER INSCRUTABLE.
THAT IS TOO BAD.YEAH.
WELL, MAYBE THIS TIME YOUR STORY COMES UP WITH A DIFFERENT ENDING.
MAYBE THIS TIME ONE OF THE ANIMALS LIVE.
SANGA SENT YOU TO ME, DIDN'T HE?
HE DID IT THROUGH MORRISON.
SANGA TRICKED US BOTH.
HE WANTED TO MAKE SURE YOU WERE A WORTHY OPPONENT.
I THOUGHT I COULD PROTECT YOU,
BUT I WAS WRONG.
I'M AN OLD FOOL...
OR MAYBE WORSE.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
TONG PO KILLED MY NIECE ALONG WITH YOUR BROTHERS.
MAYBE A PART OF ME WANTS REVENGE.
MAYBE A PART OF ME IS WILLING
TO SACRIFICE YOU TO GET IT.
IF THAT IS SO, I AM NO BETTER THAN SANGA.
THIS IS MY FIGHT.
IT'S JUST SOMETHING I GOT TO DO... NOW.
DIDN'T THINK I'D MISS ONE OF YOUR FIGHTS, DID YOU?
BRIAN'S MOM TOLD ME WHAT HAPPENED.
HERE'S YOUR GEAR, CHAMP.
OH, YEAH. THANKS, MAN.
YOU KNOW WHAT MAY HAPPEN?
IF YOUR LEG IS HURT...
DAVID...
YOU DON'T HAVE TO FIGHT MUAY THAI.
IT'S NOT JUST USING GLASS,
IT'S FIGHTING WITH NO RULES.
YOU COULD BE KILLED.
HUNDREDS OF YEARS AGO,
THIS WAS HOW WE FOUGHT.
THE VIDEO'S FOR OUR PEOPLE AT HOME...
PROOF THAT WE HAVE REGAINED OUR HONOR.
IT AIN'T OVER...
UNTIL THE FAT LADY SINGS.
YES. I'M FAMILIAR WITH THAT EXPRESSION.
YOU'LL FIGHT MUAY THAI
UNTIL ONE OF YOU CAN NO LONGER CONTINUE.
UNDERSTOOD?
[GRUNTING]
ARGH!
OHH!
[JOINTS POP]
UNH!
UHH!
UNH!
[GRUNTING]
UHH!
ARGH!
YOU'RE THE WEAKEST OF ALL THE SLOANS.
Xian: DAVID... DAVID!
I SEE NO FAT LADY.I HEAR NO SINGING.
SHOW IS NOT OVER YET!
CONCENTRATE.THE MOST FIERCE WEAPON IS THE HUMAN MIND.
NOW, GO KICK HIS ASS AND LET'S GO HOME!
[THINKING] REMEMBER, SOMETIMES WHEN
YOU'RE BLIND, AND TIMES SEEM DARKEST,
YOU CAN OFTEN SEE MORE CLEARLY.
I TELL YOU WHAT...
YOU TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT.
[GRUNTING]
UHH!
[GRUNTING]
OHH!
[GRUNTING]
[CLICK]
[COCKS GUN]
IS THIS WHAT YOU CALL HONOR?
I HAVE NO HONOR.
WHEN A MAN LOSES HIS HONOR, HE HAS NOTHING.
[GRUNTING]
UNH!
YOU KNOW, YOU ARE NOT AS GOOD A TEACHER
AS YOU ARE A STUDENT.
YOU MUST HAVE PATIENCE.
DID I BLOCK THE SIDEWALK?
Kid: WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL?
Jo: HE'S GREAT.HE'S A GREAT CHAMP.
WHAT MAKES HIM SO SPECIAL?
COME ON!
MR. SLOAN!
THIS HERE'S KARL.HE'S THE NEW PUNKIN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
HE DOESN'T TAKE ANYTHING ON FAITH.
OH, HOW YOU DOING, KARL?
HE DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A CHAMPION TO ME.
Boy: OOH! THAT IS RUDE!
Kid: SHOW HIM, MAN.
JUST LET ME SEE IT.
OK, KID... YOU TAKE YOUR BEST SHOT.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Xian: TIME OUT!
