Bring him by my place tomorrow.

What did I tell you?

One fight.

One fight and LA Jim wants to talk to you.

That's what I'm talking about, baby.

That's what I'm talking about.

No laying, huh?

You're a mean son of a b*tch.

I like it though.

I like that a lot.

Jake.

Get him another fight.

Quick.

Keep your head up straight.

Just two more and we're through.

We clear ?

I said, are we clear ?

Wild man.

Take care of my horse, Jake.

See you soon.

here?

Pope polish?

Trust me. This guy's the real deal.

Here. That's for your win

last night.

Big time.

Hey, guys. Thanks for coming down.

No problem.

Why don't you and I take a walk ?

- Murray has some papers for you to sign.

- Hey.

saw you came from Drexel.

You are good.

Last night you were something

... different.

- How long a strech did you do ?

- Ten years.

You know what I do ?

- Train fighters.

- No.

I Train the best.

And the best all have that animal

I saw in you last night.

But that's not enough.

See, right now you can get on

the ground with anyone.

you just can't get him there.

You've gotta learn how to stand up and fight.

Become a complete fighter.

'cos that's what separates

the street rats from the best.

You gotta want it.

Or eventually ...

You won't walk out

Remember when everyone

used to know his name?

"Dillon, you the man!"

You train with me and I'll get

you back there.

- What's in it for you ?

- Twenty percent.

You fight who I say

when I say.

I don't think I'm in the fighter

you are looking for.

Well, I don't know if you are either.

But after what I saw last

night, and from what I know ...

I think you owe to yourself to find out.

When do we start ?

- You've got a girl?

- No.

Go get one tonight.

'cause tomorrow, your legs are mine.

Girls are like kryptonite

to legs.

7am tomorrow morning.

Make sure you eat something before.

What did he say?

- Eat breakfast.

- What else?

And to get laid.

That's what I'm talking about!

- Here.

- What's that?

You now belong LA Jim Inc. Management

Hey huh, how's the fishing?

Relax. it's just a job check.

A little like a prostate check,

but without the lube.

I brought coffee.

What happened to your knuckles?

Loading boxes?

Yes.

you've loaded boxes with

your face, too?

So, do you need to talk to

my boss or something?

No.

Just checking a box here.

- How are you doing?

- Here?

Here, there, everywhere.

How's the world?

It's fine.

It's different.

Did four in Iraq.

Came home, felt like I'd

been to Mars and back.

Give it time.

Find something that matters.

Hold on tight.

Look what it did for me, right?

Allright.

Back to work.

- Next time?

- Yes

Watch out for them boxes.
