So I wanna tell you somethin'.

This is comin' straight from the heart.

You ain't down. And you ain't a loser.

You're just a jealous... lazy... bum.

OK. I'm gonna break your mouth.

I'm gonna bust your mouth up!

Can I have a job?

All you had to do was ask.

- You punch pretty good.

- Think so?

Oh, superb!

- It cost a lot, huh?

- Yeah, a few bucks.

Got an extra one?

- Any trouble with Paulie tonight?

- Nah, nothin' unusual.

Are you really gonna fight that wrestler?

That's all right. It'll be fun.

Mind if I serenade you awhile?

# Doo doo doo-doo...

Come on, it's your part.

- What are you doing?

- Come on, you can do it.

# Doo doo doo-doo

- Come on. You're gonna wake the baby.

- Adrian, let's do a duet.

# Doo doo doo-doo

- # Doe doe doe-doe...

- No, no.

That's good, but it's not "doe doe".

It's # doo doo doo-doo.

- # Doo doo doe-doo...

- That's good, darlin'.

- # I been told

- # Doo doo doo-doo...

- # By people, and they all

- # Doo doo doo-doo...

# They said to take you back

Take you back like before

What's the matter?

I don't know any more of the composition.

- Maybe we're lucky.

- Yeah, maybe we're very lucky.

- # Doo doo doo-doo...

- # Hm hm mm-mm

Howdy, sports fans. This is Dennis James

with Jim Healy down here at ringside.

Tonight we have a most unlikely match,

the boxer against the wrestler...

...with all the proceeds going to charity.

What do you think about

a boxer against a wrestler?

You know the theory. Once the wrestler

grabs the boxer, that's all she wrote.

What the hell goes on inside your head?

Anything normal functions?

- Yeah, there's a few.

- I don't think so.

To fight a creature like this,

you gotta have 100lb of brain damage.

I seen wrestlers that was bigger than

dinosaurs. You ever fight a dinosaur?

- No, not lately.

- They can cause a variety of damage.

The wrestling champion

of the world is here...

...and he is quite a sight,

all decked out in red.

- Why are they carryin' him?

- He's walkin'.

I'm comin' after you, Balboa.

- Let's call it off.

- Aw, come on. It's for charity.

You're wearin' your anatomy out.

Nobody else does this much for charity.

- Bob Hope would.

- That's true.

Rocky, you better call Bob Hope.

(booing)

To all my love slaves out there...

...Thunderlips is here... in the flesh, baby.

Oh, my God.

The Ultimate Male,

versus the ultimate meatball.

Boy, he is a monster!

How much would you take...

...even to get in the ring with him?

- Would you like to start at Fort Knox?

In the white corner, an incredible sight.

Standing nearly seven feet...

...weighing 390lb...

- Large, ain't he?

...the undisputed wrestling champion...
