Sometimes it goes down that way!

It goes down that way?

He's a killer!

We all saw it!

All right!

Keep your voice down!

I got a call here.

It's Vegas.

Yeah, Maury?

Why didn't you stop?

Couldn't you see that he was...?

Why didn't you stop?

Why didn't you stop?

I couldn't stop!

Why didn't I stop?

Why didn't I stop?

Why didn't the ref call the fight?

Don, why?

All right, Archie, Jesse,

give me a moment

with my boy here.

Good.

This is a terrible thing.

It's tragic, but it comes

with our line of work.

Everybody knows that.

Tommy, people are lining up.

Promoters, they want in

on the Tommy Novak business.

Don, I couldn't stop!

I couldn't stop!

It wouldn't stop!

I couldn't stop!

All right, all right,

you want to cry, you cry.

You want to screw that cooz,

I'll bring her back in.

I'll get you another.

But you have got to work

to get this out of your system.

You gotta get it together.

You gotta get ready, Tommy,

for big things.

Big things.

All right, I gotta take this.

Doc, give him something

to calm him down.

Yeah, Maury...

You didn't even break a sweat.

Let's get this over with.

You seen this before, right, Doc?

No, I've never seen

anything like this before.

He was dead

before he hit the canvas.

There was something wrong, Doc!

You shouldn't have let him fight!

There was nothing

wrong with him.

There was nothing wrong

with Billy Marco.

How's Billy?

Don didn't tell you?

That figures.

He died this morning, Tommy.

They declared him brain-dead,

took him off life support.

He was gone in minutes.

Congratulations on your new career.

You shove your congratulations!

You think I don't feel nothin'?

You think I'm proud of this?

Prove it!

Get in the ring

without killing someone!

Can you do that?

Hey, killer.

How those gloves fit?

Sometimes they don't

fit a man's hands too good,

but they fit you perfect.

Whose are they?

Whose are they?

They're yours, Tommy.

They ain't mine.

You're a natural fighter.

You always had it.

You always felt it.

You just needed

the right gear to use it.

Now you know what you can do,

what you can be.

Big things.

No. This ain't me.

Big things.

Nah, this ain't me.

This ain't me.

Stay back.

Tommy,

what are you talking about?

Matches! Matches!

I only got a lighter. Here.

What the hell are you doing?

Let it burn.

And that's why tomorrow is critical.

That Perez fight,

it knocked us back a bit.

Shitty decision, huh?

Absolutely. Lousy judges.

But we still got the momentum

from your first two

comeback fights,

and we gotta build on that buzz

before it's old news.

So, today,

I want you to do a real workout,

and I got you a good partner.
