00:09:35,241 --> 00:09:37,326
Me, I've seen the
flick three times.
182
00:09:38,911 --> 00:09:41,455
Yeah, 15 bucks for
a locker and a corner man.
183
00:09:41,497 --> 00:09:44,208
Five dollar charge for
shower and towel.
184
00:09:44,250 --> 00:09:46,210
Hmm..
185
00:09:46,794 --> 00:09:48,629
And very true to life.
186
00:09:49,922 --> 00:09:51,465
So, uh..
187
00:09:51,507 --> 00:09:53,342
...my looks are
comin' on, huh?
188
00:09:53,384 --> 00:09:54,510
[giggling]
189
00:09:54,552 --> 00:09:57,471
I said you look...different,
that's all.
190
00:09:57,513 --> 00:09:58,556
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
191
00:09:58,598 --> 00:10:00,141
'Cause I feel different.
192
00:10:00,182 --> 00:10:02,143
Oh?
193
00:10:04,228 --> 00:10:06,314
This movie's got me thinking..
194
00:10:06,355 --> 00:10:11,444
...if some bum wants to be
President of the United States..
195
00:10:11,485 --> 00:10:12,945
...he really can be.
196
00:10:15,698 --> 00:10:17,867
President, huh?
Hmm?
197
00:10:17,908 --> 00:10:21,037
Well, I guess, I better work
on winning a few fights first.
198
00:10:21,078 --> 00:10:22,913
My record's not so hot.
199
00:10:29,587 --> 00:10:31,505
I gotta go do my roadwork.
200
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,218
Jerry..
201
00:10:39,055 --> 00:10:43,559
Are you...looking
for your own Adrian?
202
00:10:45,853 --> 00:10:47,521
Are you for real?
203
00:10:48,731 --> 00:10:49,940
Uh-huh.
204
00:10:54,195 --> 00:10:56,280
So that was..
205
00:10:56,322 --> 00:10:58,366
...the beginning
of me and Jerry.
206
00:10:59,367 --> 00:11:01,118
And the end of you
and Sonny?
207
00:11:02,286 --> 00:11:05,414
Yeah, I...I told him
that Jerry had changed.
208
00:11:05,456 --> 00:11:07,458
I said, there was
no stopping him now.
209
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:09,460
But Sonny didn't believe it.
210
00:11:12,463 --> 00:11:14,757
Gina, just so you know..
211
00:11:14,799 --> 00:11:17,885
...your dad was genuinely
sorry about Jerry.
212
00:11:19,136 --> 00:11:20,721
Yeah, too bad
he didn't feel that way
213
00:11:20,763 --> 00:11:23,516
before he let
Mad Mo kill him.
214
00:11:27,770 --> 00:11:29,522

Hmm. Where y'all
park the car, man?
217
00:11:34,443 --> 00:11:36,904

We're good.

221
00:11:47,331 --> 00:11:50,209
- Let's talk about Jerry Stone.
- Come on.
222
00:11:50,251 --> 00:11:52,962
At the weigh-in, you said,
you were gonna murder Jerry.
223
00:11:53,003 --> 00:11:54,797
For real, then you did.
224
00:11:54,839 --> 00:11:57,591
Hey-hey,
just talking bads, man.

226
00:11:59,009 --> 00:12:00,678
What about the press
conference when you were
227
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,138
talking up some
black and white stuff?
228
00:12:02,179 --> 00:12:04,724
Ah, just pointing up
the differences.
229
00:12:04,765 --> 00:12:06,642

230
00:12:06,684 --> 00:12:09,645
Jerry Stone and y'all might have
rather been square dancing.
231
00:12:09,687 --> 00:12:12,398
- That ain't racist.
- It is, a little bit.
232
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,525
Still, it don't mean
I murdered him.

to be sealed.

Don't worry.

We taped 'em back up.
239
00:12:26,954 --> 00:12:29,165
I didn't even know
who Jerry Stone was.
240
00:12:29,206 --> 00:12:31,542
I-I didn't want to take
that fight in the first place.
241
00:12:31,584 --> 00:12:33,294
- Why not?
- Well, cat was what?
242
00:12:33,335 --> 00:12:36,839
15-18-3, something
terrible like that.
243
00:12:36,881 --> 00:12:39,008
What's beating a chump
like that gonna do for me?
244
00:12:39,049 --> 00:12:41,844
- So why did you fight him?
- Tommy Sugar.
245
00:12:41,886 --> 00:12:43,179
The promoter of the fight.
246
00:12:43,220 --> 00:12:46,766

Wait, wait a minute. Look, how
many fights you won in a row?
253
00:13:03,657 --> 00:13:04,492
All of 'em.
254
00:13:04,533 --> 00:13:06,368
And 21 outta 22
was knockouts.
255
00:13:06,410 --> 00:13:08,913
And what one of 'em was
against a top-five contender?

But after I get done
with this fight, they will.

is gonna raise my status?

I've opened up faces
many a time.

But he bleeds like this tonight,
imagine what you'll do to him.

...is gonna care about you.
272
00:13:51,580 --> 00:13:53,207
Yeah.
273
00:13:53,249 --> 00:13:55,000
Come on, Mo.
Huh?

00:13:55,042 --> 00:13:57,002
- Yeah.

Come on.
276
00:13:59,922 --> 00:14:03,259
So you agreed to the fight
and took Jerry apart.
277
00:14:03,300 --> 00:14:05,427
The ref should've stopped it.
278
00:14:05,469 --> 00:14:07,346
I could tell white boy's
brain got wet.
279

"He took the ring back,"
this kind of nonsense.

Thing is, Mo,
your career didn't rise.
282
00:14:14,603 --> 00:14:16,897
It went downhill
after that fight.
283
00:14:16,939 --> 00:14:20,109

290
00:14:46,677 --> 00:14:49,430
It was 1976, the Bicentennial.
291
00:14:49,471 --> 00:14:53,309
And "Rocky" was as
American as it gets.
292
00:14:53,350 --> 00:14:55,269
And you saw a way
to exploit that.
293
00:14:55,311 --> 00:14:57,438
Saw opportunity.
For one and all.
294
00:14:57,479 --> 00:14:59,982
That kinda timing
don't come twice.
295
00:15:00,024 --> 00:15:01,901
Well, so the pressure was on.
296
00:15:01,942 --> 00:15:03,861
- This fight had to live up.
- No doubt.
297
00:15:03,903 --> 00:15:06,989
One thing for an underdog to go
15 rounds on the silver screen
298
00:15:07,031 --> 00:15:10,075
another to make that
happen in real life.

A tribute to the young
men who fought.
300
00:15:12,912 --> 00:15:15,497
And you did nothing
to help it along?

00:15:15,539 --> 00:15:17,166
[chuckles]
302
00:15:17,207 --> 00:15:18,334
Like what?
303
00:15:18,375 --> 00:15:21,295
Jerry would bleed a lot,
which was a good thing, right?
304
00:15:21,337 --> 00:15:23,213
(Will)
'But if you were trying
to re-make "Rocky"'
305
00:15:23,255 --> 00:15:25,090
you need Jerry
to go 15 rounds.
306
00:15:25,132 --> 00:15:27,092
So you don't want
too much of a good thing.
307
00:15:27,134 --> 00:15:30,888
So maybe, as insurance, you paid
the referee to keep it going.
308
00:15:30,930 --> 00:15:31,931
No matter what.
309
00:15:31,972 --> 00:15:35,726
- Sonny took a deal like that?
- Yep.
310
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,480
I wish I'd known
he was open for business.
311
00:15:39,521 --> 00:15:43,108
You know, where you ought
to be looking, is the CYO.
312
00:15:43,150 --> 00:15:47,446
- Catholic Youth Organization.
- Where I plucked Jerry from.
313
00:15:47,488 --> 00:15:50,074
About half a dozen fighters
came to me crying the blues
314
00:15:50,115 --> 00:15:51,367
after being overlooked.
315
00:15:51,408 --> 00:15:55,454
So one of these sore losers
from the CYO paid Sonny $1500
316
00:15:55,496 --> 00:15:58,415
to see Jerry take
the beating of his life?
317
00:15:58,457 --> 00:16:01,710
Your best fighters
always hold a grudge.

[instrumental music]
319
00:16:10,135 --> 00:16:12,346
The CYO was at its
height in the '70s.
320
00:16:12,388 --> 00:16:15,349
Instead of a kid sucking
on cigarettes all day long
321
00:16:15,391 --> 00:16:16,725
he had a place to go.
322
00:16:16,767 --> 00:16:19,728
And Jerry Stone participated
in the boxing program?
323
00:16:19,770 --> 00:16:22,398
Jerry would serve mass
for me on Sunday mornings
324
00:16:22,439 --> 00:16:24,233
and then fight for
me on Sunday nights.
325
00:16:24,274 --> 00:16:27,027
Which eventually lands him
this bout with Mo.
326
00:16:27,069 --> 00:16:28,362
Right.
327
00:16:28,404 --> 00:16:30,572
Heard not everyone
was overjoyed by that.
328
00:16:30,614 --> 00:16:33,075
You gotta remember that
these kids had their noses
329
00:16:33,117 --> 00:16:34,994
pressed right up against it.
330
00:16:35,035 --> 00:16:36,412
And along comes Jerry.
331
00:16:36,453 --> 00:16:39,373
He's got a chance at
a real professional fight.
332
00:16:39,415 --> 00:16:41,750
Well, anyone so jealous
they might wanna see
333
00:16:41,792 --> 00:16:43,293
real harm come to Jerry?
334
00:16:43,335 --> 00:16:45,462
Pay the ref off
to see that happen?
335
00:16:45,504 --> 00:16:48,507
Deep down, these guys knew they
were not better than Jerry.
336
00:16:48,549 --> 00:16:50,551
It's just a bunch of
ham and eggers.
337
00:16:50,592 --> 00:16:53,345
Except, uh,
one of them, I guess.
338
00:16:53,387 --> 00:16:55,014
- Who?
- Bucky Lowsen.
339
00:16:55,055 --> 00:16:57,641
- Best fighter we had.
- Better than Jerry?
340
00:16:57,683 --> 00:17:00,352
They wanted more of an underdog.
He had too good a record.
341
00:17:00,394 --> 00:17:02,021
And how'd he deal with that?
342
00:17:02,062 --> 00:17:03,647
Bucky didn't like coming
in second to Jerry.
343
00:17:03,689 --> 00:17:06,775
And that seemed to be
happening quite a lot.
344
00:17:06,817 --> 00:17:08,694
[laughing]
345
00:17:10,362 --> 00:17:11,196

Hey, can I borrow
the keys to the gym, Father?

the bags a little.

was built in a day.

Go play some records.
351
00:17:24,418 --> 00:17:26,295
I'll be right over.
352
00:17:27,463 --> 00:17:29,006
You just won't give him
a chance, will you?

Why should I?
A bum is a bum is a bum.

Hey..
355
00:17:32,843 --> 00:17:34,386
Hey, I've been
looking for you.
356
00:17:34,428 --> 00:17:35,888
- Buck.
- Don't "Buck" me, boy.

'You get the message
I left you?'

00:17:37,806 --> 00:17:39,558
Look, Buck, this is
Mr. Sugar's fight.
359
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,769
- You should talk to him.
- I did.
360
00:17:41,810 --> 00:17:43,896
My only way in that ring
is if you're out.
361

I'm sorry,
I'm staying put.

- We're not through here.
- Buck, Buck, back off.

What are you talking about?
368
00:18:05,876 --> 00:18:08,921
Jerry purchased
a fancy engagement ring.
369
00:18:08,962 --> 00:18:11,090
'He seems to think
he's gonna marry Gina.'
370
00:18:11,131 --> 00:18:12,257
Bucky, give it a rest.
371
00:18:12,299 --> 00:18:13,926
Or maybe, you fighting Mo
372
00:18:13,967 --> 00:18:15,385
ain't such a bad thing.
373

'After he puts you in a coma'

00:18:17,262 --> 00:18:19,306
guess whose brawny
shoulder's gonna be there
375
00:18:19,348 --> 00:18:21,350
for Gina to cry on.
376
00:18:27,231 --> 00:18:30,484
- So Buck and Gina had history.
- Sweethearts.
377
00:18:30,526 --> 00:18:32,152
- In high school?
- Elementary.
378

He'd been carrying a torch
for her since the fifth grade.

So between losing both the fight
and the girl to Jerry..
384
00:18:46,708 --> 00:18:48,377
Buck was having a rough go.

I'll see you then.

- Valens?
- Yeah.

- We're gonna grab some drinks.

Good.
Doing better than yesterday.
390
00:19:00,848 --> 00:19:03,350
- You talked to him?
- Yeah.
391
00:19:03,392 --> 00:19:07,187
Buck Lowsen's got a record.
Two days before the fight
392
00:19:07,229 --> 00:19:09,064
Buck robbed a
convenience store.
393
00:19:09,106 --> 00:19:11,984
This says he was arrested
in '78, not '76.
394
00:19:12,025 --> 00:19:13,360
It took that long
to catch him.
395
00:19:13,402 --> 00:19:14,820
How much did
Buck get away with?
396
00:19:14,862 --> 00:19:17,156
Two thousand and a thing
of peanut butter.
397
00:19:17,197 --> 00:19:19,241
And two whole years
to spread it around.
398
00:19:19,283 --> 00:19:21,243
Yeah, but maybe,
he only took two days
399
00:19:21,285 --> 00:19:23,245
before he burned off
1500 of it.
400
00:19:23,287 --> 00:19:26,290
Right, 1500,
Sonny's asking price.
401

[instrumental music]
402
00:19:32,671 --> 00:19:35,257
I don't know what
you're talking about.
403
00:19:35,299 --> 00:19:37,509
Buck, I might even believe you
if not for the timing.
404
00:19:37,551 --> 00:19:40,304
I mean, you never stole
anything else in your life.
405
00:19:40,345 --> 00:19:41,763
That's the God's
honest truth.
406
00:19:41,805 --> 00:19:43,140
Nothing before
that day or after.
407
00:19:43,182 --> 00:19:44,808
Yeah, but that day's
the problem, Buck.
408
00:19:44,850 --> 00:19:46,643
Because it was two days
before the fight.
409
00:19:46,685 --> 00:19:49,396
- How do you explain that?
- I can't.
410
00:19:49,438 --> 00:19:52,357
Start with the money.
What did you do with it?
411
00:19:53,233 --> 00:19:56,236
Buck, we know
you wished Jerry ill.
412
00:19:56,278 --> 00:19:58,572
And that you and Gina
go way back.
413
00:20:00,824 --> 00:20:01,950
Let him call a lawyer.
414
00:20:01,992 --> 00:20:04,870
I don't want a lawyer.
I can't afford one.
415

Fine, I'll make sure
you get a PD.
416

If you're lucky,
you might even get a good one.
417
00:20:09,249 --> 00:20:11,251
You think a public defender's
gonna care about me?
418
00:20:11,293 --> 00:20:13,212
Alright, maybe not, but Buck,
if you're not gonna talk
419
00:20:13,253 --> 00:20:14,796
about the money,
what are we supposed to do?
420
00:20:14,838 --> 00:20:18,967
Besides, if you're so innocent,
what are you hedging for?
421
00:20:20,636 --> 00:20:22,888
Because I don't
want to hurt her.

00:33:43,146 --> 00:33:46,357
Oh, you're here now
and we're celebrating.
701
00:33:46,399 --> 00:33:49,569
We got a cause
or are we better without?
702
00:33:49,610 --> 00:33:51,404
I'm back on
the job next week.
703
00:33:51,446 --> 00:33:53,031
No kiddin'.
Yeah.
704
00:33:53,072 --> 00:33:54,532
- Way to go.
- That's good, right?
705
00:33:54,574 --> 00:33:57,702
Tops.
Tops, brother, tops.
706
00:33:59,412 --> 00:34:00,663
What?
707
00:34:00,705 --> 00:34:01,789
Just that simple?
708
00:34:01,831 --> 00:34:04,792
It'd be simpler if I can get
rollin' here a little bit.
709
00:34:06,252 --> 00:34:07,879
Yo, Christina.
710
00:34:09,714 --> 00:34:12,759
I'll go again.
Get Nicky, too.
711
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,010
How you doin'?
712
00:34:14,052 --> 00:34:16,054
Good, I didn't know
you worked here.
713
00:34:16,095 --> 00:34:18,431
Yeah, it's fun for now.
714
00:34:18,473 --> 00:34:20,099
Although I find
some of the guys
715
00:34:20,141 --> 00:34:21,893
who come in here
are sort of..
716
00:34:21,934 --> 00:34:23,519
...half-ass.
717
00:34:23,561 --> 00:34:24,687
No kiddin'?
718
00:34:24,729 --> 00:34:26,230
Half-ass, huh?
719
00:34:26,272 --> 00:34:29,650
Uh, but that was before
you two came in.
720
00:34:31,736 --> 00:34:32,695
Perfect.
721
00:34:32,737 --> 00:34:35,656
I got it.
722
00:34:35,698 --> 00:34:37,075
Thank you, kind sir.
723
00:34:44,123 --> 00:34:46,709
You know, taking it
back a sec
724
00:34:46,751 --> 00:34:49,796
you were telling me
you're happy I'm back
725
00:34:49,837 --> 00:34:53,424
not asking how I'm doing.
726
00:34:53,466 --> 00:34:55,176
Thanks for that.
727
00:34:56,177 --> 00:34:57,595

When the hard stuff happens
729
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:03,017
I say walk it off
any way you can, whatever.
730
00:35:04,811 --> 00:35:06,729
You're the goods, Nicky.
731
00:35:08,523 --> 00:35:12,151
But what you can't do..
732
00:35:12,193 --> 00:35:13,361
...is Rush's sister.
733
00:35:13,402 --> 00:35:14,862
You know what I mean?
734
00:35:16,781 --> 00:35:19,951
What do you think?
What are you talking about?
735
00:35:19,992 --> 00:35:23,162
Scotty, serious.
736
00:35:23,204 --> 00:35:26,457
Anyone but that, right?
737
00:35:31,295 --> 00:35:34,590
[music continues]
738
00:35:41,430 --> 00:35:44,642
[dramatic music]
739
00:35:51,023 --> 00:35:53,985
Mo said Jerry kept yelling
he took the ring back
740
00:35:54,026 --> 00:35:56,946
thinking he was talking
about the boxing ring.
741
00:35:56,988 --> 00:35:58,197
But now we think Jerry meant
742
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,825
the engagement ring
he bought for Gina.
743
00:36:00,867 --> 00:36:02,326
From Jimmy the jeweler.
744
00:36:02,368 --> 00:36:03,369
Jimmy's still in business?
745
00:36:03,411 --> 00:36:04,537
Well, on the day
of the fight
746
00:36:04,579 --> 00:36:05,788
Jerry took the ring in
747
00:36:05,830 --> 00:36:07,248
and asked for his money back.
748
00:36:07,290 --> 00:36:08,666
How much was it worth?
749
00:36:08,708 --> 00:36:09,709
Eighteen hundred.
750
00:36:09,750 --> 00:36:10,960
But Jimmy wouldn't
give him that.
751
00:36:11,002 --> 00:36:12,461
Said the ring
had depreciated
752
00:36:12,503 --> 00:36:13,880
over the three days
he had had it.
753
00:36:13,921 --> 00:36:15,798
So, what did Jerry
get for it?
754
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,467
Fifteen hundred, even.
755
00:36:19,886 --> 00:36:22,471
[instrumental music]
756
00:36:25,850 --> 00:36:28,227
So, we know
who paid off Sonny, Mo.
757
00:36:28,269 --> 00:36:29,687
Oh, yeah?
758
00:36:29,729 --> 00:36:31,647
Yeah. Jerry.
759
00:36:34,442 --> 00:36:37,069
Now, how does
that make sense?
760
00:36:37,111 --> 00:36:39,280
Jerry knew you'd open up
his face bad.
761
00:36:39,322 --> 00:36:41,199
And the way he bleeds,
he figures
762
00:36:41,240 --> 00:36:43,034
the ref will T-K-O him.
763
00:36:43,075 --> 00:36:45,536
It did pour out,
sure enough.
764
00:36:45,578 --> 00:36:49,081
He wanted to prove he could go
the whole 15 with you.
765
00:36:50,750 --> 00:36:52,960
Yeah, that sounds
like old Jerry.
766
00:36:53,002 --> 00:36:54,378
Mo, could some of
the things he was saying
767
00:36:54,420 --> 00:36:58,257
during the fight have been
meant for Sonny and not you?
768
00:36:58,299 --> 00:37:01,427
Yeah, it didn't make
sense comin' my way.
769
00:37:01,469 --> 00:37:02,803
'And I'll tell
you what else.'
770
00:37:02,845 --> 00:37:04,347
I never seen a guy change
771
00:37:04,388 --> 00:37:06,390
so much over
the course of a fight.
772
00:37:06,432 --> 00:37:09,810
- You mean Jerry?
- No, man, Sonny.
773
00:37:09,852 --> 00:37:12,021
Before the fight,
he hadn't an ounce of respect
774
00:37:12,063 --> 00:37:13,147
for that Jerry.
775
00:37:13,189 --> 00:37:14,482
