JOEY sits next to JAKE at the kitchen table. JAKE
has a drink in his hand, and tears on his face.
JOEY (CONT'D)
What's wrong?
JAKE:
(gets up)
Nothing...
JAKE goes into the living room. IRMA looks at JOEY.
JOEY follows JAKE.
INT. LIVING ROOM
JOEY walks up to JAKE.
JOEY:
Hey, c'mon, what's the matter?
JAKE:
(privately, to Joey)
I ain't ever gonna fight Joe Louis,
that's what's the matter.
JOEY:
What're you talking about? He's a
heavyweight. You're a middleweight.
JAKE holds out his scarred hands.
JAKE:
Look at these hands. These f***in'
hands. I was born with a girl's
hands. And even if I put on enough
weight to be a heavyweight, I'd be
too slow to fight. No matter how
big I get, I'll never be big enough
to fight Louis.
JAKE pauses. IRMA watches from the doorway.
JOEY:
That's what I'm sayin'. You
shouldn't even think like that.
It's crazy.
JAKE:
I tell you one thing. Ok, I'll
never be big enough to fight Louis,
but I know Joey, I know...
JOEY:
You know?
JAKE:
Yeah. Do me a favor.
JOEY:
Sure. What is it?
JAKE:
Hit me in the face.
JOEY:
(after a pause)
You want me to do what?
JAKE:
You heard me, I said hit me.
JOEY:
C'mon, Jack. You had a few drinks.
JAKE:
Go ahead. I ain't drunk. Take your
best shot. On the jaw.
JOEY:
Jack, I got no gloves.
JAKE:
(grabs a nearby towel)
Here's your glove.
JOEY wraps it around his fist. IRMA watches. JOEY
hits JAKE with his right. JAKE holds fast.
JAKE (CONT'D)
Go ahead. Hit me. C'mon, don't
worry about it. I want you to hit
me with everything you got.
JOEY hauls off and lands him a real belt. JAKE
rolls with it and stands firm.
JAKE (CONT'D)
Again. Harder.
JOEY hits him again.
JAKE (CONT'D)
Harder. Go 'head.
JOEY hits him again.
JAKE (CONT'D)
Harder.
(grabs the towel)
Take the towel off.
JOEY:
Jack! Enough!
JAKE:
Go ahead.
JOEY hits him again. JAKE holds fast. JAKE starts
to walk away.
JOEY:
What was that for? I know you can
take punches. I can hit you from
now to doomsday. What the f*** does
that prove?
JAKE:
See that, I don't feel it. I can
take it. I know I can take anybody.
Gleason's, a small gym and fight club, stands on
149th Street and 3rd Avenue above a small sandwich
shop.
Each day BOBBY GLEASON posts a small sign alongside
the door listing the fighters who will be working
out. JAKE's name is posted at the top; the other
names are unmemorable.
INT. GLEASON'S - DAY
Gleason's has a single sparring ring and ten
training bags. About a dozen managers train their
fighters out at Gleason's. For 50 cents, spectators
sit in the gallery and watch the workouts.
JAKE is sparring with JOEY in the ring. They've
been working out for a while now. The bell rings
ending the third round. JAKE prances about the ring
waiting for the bell to sound again.
