And there's my number.

Give me a call when somebody decides

to do their job around here.

Michael!

Hey!

What did he want?

Uh, it's his second time in here.

The kid's all over the place.

Wants us to go pick up some guy on

a seven-year-old murder charge.

Here, he gave me this.

Hey.

Look, I know I lost

my cool the other day

and I shouldn't have.

This place means a lot to me.

I want to help you.

I wanna help the kids.

And I want to keep on

training, you know,

- provided that's okay with you.

- Okay.

That's it?

Look, I said I'm sorry.

I thought this place was

supposed to be about

honor and respect.

- Hit this.

- What?

Hit this.

Deep breath,

focus

and strike.

Hai!

The makiwara defines

the essence of karate.

Your punch can bounce off

just as easily as it can puncture.

The only thing that

factors into it is you...

your mind,

your focus

and your form.

You wanna get angry,

you wanna hit something, hit this.

4:
00 every day,

same as before.

Keep at it.

Osu, stand, yoi.

All right, jumping

jacks, 10 fast... go!

Other hand here, punching.

Here we go, ready? And...

watch out, guys. One, two...

as fast as you can. Five...

six...

- Hi, Jen.

- Hi.

Oh, how you doing?

- Good.

- Good.

Come on in.

Here we go!

Don't, no no no no no!

One, two, three, karate!

Good job last night. Good job.

- What's that there? Oh!

- What?

Good job.

And it's on!

Oooh.

Ladies and gentlemen, get

ready for another crazy one.

Right about now we got my

man Bullet inside the cage.

My dude is quick, but yo!

His opponent, the undefeated

Dominic Gray-yyy!

- Go to your corner.

- Whoo!

Yo, I know my man got

some speed on him,

but I'm telling you, I don't know how

he's gonna get himself outta this one.

I hope he can respond.

Dominic Gray is a

bad bad man, y'all.

You all know how he does it.

Y'all ready for this one or what?

- You ready?

- Excuse me.

All right, let's do this.

This gonna be crazy 'cause

you know it always is!

Get ready to fight, baby!

- Let's go!

- Come on!

Here we go!

- Whoo, middle of the war, y'all!

- Whoo!

- Off him.

- Come on, come on, come on.

Dominic Gray, people, 13 and 0.

It's for this reason and

out of popular demand,

that your kind promoter

and our sponsors

have decided to host a

tournament starting May 15th.

We want the best fighters

inside this cage.

No weight class. And

the awarded prize?

$50,000 cash!

Oh sh*t. Hey, and to get it?

Fight your way through

to this motherf***er

and try knockin' him out!

Dominic Gray, y'all!

Undefeated!

Yeah, man, I was just

tellin' Big D, man,

this is gonna be our

wildest one yet, man.

Oh, it's gonna be crazy.

Dom can't wait.
