And so, we move into round number nine,
and the referee brings them together here at the start of the round
telling them that it's got to be cleaner than it is.
And Romano points towards Nord as if to say,
"He's the man employing the dirty tactics here".
The dark eyes say they know... an exchange of jabs,
right at the start of this the... ninth round of a scheduled 12.
Romano is on the front foot trying to force Nord
back to the ropes directly above us here.
Potentially just 12 minutes now for Nord to turn this contest back his way.
He leans in, the long rangy left jab, and two more, and a third one now,
trying to find the range for that follow-up right hand.
It has to be said that only once or twice has he landed
with real venom here, but he has been getting through.
Another right hand from Joe Romano, and still Nord doesn't see it coming.
And still it stalls him. And still it forces him onto the back foot.
Now he set this count, he went to the center of the ring.
Right hand from Romano gets through. And for the umpteenth time, can he get on the ropes?
And a left hand this time from Joe Romano, but Nord takes the hit.
At what point will Romano become demoralized?
Now Nord lands a left hook, it's Romano that's in trouble.
Romano is holding on. Romano is swaying.
It's Romano's legs that are wobbly now. It's Romano's legs
that are unsteady. And Nord is on the attack.
He's taking some heavy shots again in the round,
and there's four to level and he has ninety to go.

Right hand. Left hook. Big right hand from Nord, and a left hook, and a right hand.
Joe Romano is in desperate trouble.
And the referee, the referee's saying... He waves it all off.
Joe Romano protests, at the midway section of the ninth round.
Joe Romano cannot believe it.
A flurry of punches on the ropes just above us.
Where Kim Nord looked to be losing this fight
he produced a warrior instinct
around this arena Kim Nord has held him off.

- Yes, it is. - Joe, there is...
There's two kinds of people in this world. Right?
There's the hedonists and then there's the stoics.
The hedonists, they'll do whatever he can fucking do to feel good.
Stoic does what is right, no matter how he feels.
I don't know what the fuck you just said, OK?
But that's damn good for a street job.
It's my point exactly.
You've got some bull shit excuse for everything you do.

...condition to the globe trauma and we were able to reattach it with the one...
Unfortunately by the time we were able to operate, it was...

It will be less than the legal limit for blindness if he has any sight at all.
Baby, please, say something.

Now, hold on, and just let me know if you feel anything.
- OK. - Alright?
- I'm all good. - OK.
How does it look, Doc?
Uh, the stitches are actually quite good. There's only very minimal scarring.
- OK. - So, we're gonna do a vision test now, Tommy.
All I need you to do is let me know when you see the light.
OK? Just let me know when you see the light.
I got nothing. Maybe my... Maybe my eyes are just adjusting or something.
Uh.
- Sorry, Tommy, I'm just gonna take a couple of those. - OK.
So... There is no perception of visible light in either eye.
Yeah, but then... What's that?
Right now, but maybe in a week or something I'll be good, uh?
- Tommy... - Stressed up.
You're blind.
No, no, no. And I'm not willing to accept that, Doctor. No way.
No, I'm really sorry, Tommy, but it is my job, my duty, to give you the medical facts, alright?
This is... You had a long-standing of macular detachment in both eyes.
This is... This is irreversible.
Yeah, yeah, no, Doctor, it's not, OK?
It's not irreversible because I'm gonna be champion of the world, alright.
I'm not gonna, not gonna sit around being fucking blind.
I'm gonna get my eyes fixed up, I'm gonna get my rematch,
I'm gonna win my fight, that's what I do.
I'm a fighter, Doc.
- Good luck with that rematch, Tommy. - Thank you.
- Hello. - You have a collect call from Los Angeles County Jail,
if you'd like to accept this call, please press one.
Catherine.
Joe.
Listen, I need a favor, OK?
- What do you want? - I need you to bail me out.
You're in jail?

I just need to know. Are you drinking again?
Listen, I'm gonna pay you back, OK? Give me a little bit of time.

It's always about the money with you.

Catherine, what happened to Tommy?
- Catherine, what the fuck happened to Tommy? - He's blind.
Tommy is... Tommy is blind.
I'll talk to Gary.
Tommy, Tommy, did you plan to beat him in that last fight?
What do you plan on doing now that your career is over?
Who said my career is over? I'll fight tonight if you get me a rematch.
So, you're planning to return to boxing, Tommy? In what capacity?
Full capacity. Full capacity. To quote the great Jack Dempsey:
"A true champion is someone who gets up when they can't."
OK, guys. Come on, fighter. Yeah, come on.

Get out of my house.
Hey! Get out.

- I'm gonna wait outside. Tell Tommy I'm waiting outside. - Goodbye, Joe.
He says you'll have to go, you have to go.
Joe, you can't show up like this, so you'll have to leave.
It's the way it is.
- What? What? - It's the way it is.
- Don't fucking touch me. - Alright, go! Get the fuck out of here, don't piss me off.
I'm fucking gone. Hey, I'm not your fucking stray fucking dog, OK?
OK. You can't even fucking shut your own trillion dollar door.
Hey, Joe, you got to go, man.
You look like fucking shit.
You can't show up like this. So you have to leave.
You are not welcome here, Joe.
This is what it's come to for you?
You're a drunk, Dad. You are a drunk.

You piss me off. Joe, get away from me.
Oh my God. We're good.

That's... that's me, Tommy, that's me. I'm a lunatic.
I want you to put that thing away.
I don't I wanna even see it in the house anymore.
- You alright? - Yes.
Hey, hey, hey, what's going on?
Nothing. Hey, I was just getting some water, OK? Just go to sleep, OK?
OK.
What were you doing?
Tommy, if you're having trouble you got let me help you.
You got to stop worrying about me, OK?
I'm fine, I'm fine. Let's go to sleep.
I was just getting some air, it's OK, alright?

- Hey. - Where you've been?
- I just felt the kick. - What?
Yeah.
- Did you feel that? Yeah? - Yeah, I felt it.
- Alright. - I think, that was a right hand.
I know, he must have been hitting a heavy bag in there.
Yeah, he's getting ready. He's doing his fight camp in there, ready to come out, you know.

Ladies and gentlemen,
hailing from Los Angeles,
with a record of 16 wins, zero losses,
Tommy "Gun" Romano.
Oh, shit. Fuck.
Why can't you just keep your phone on you, honey?
Hi.
Where's Tommy?
- Hey, Joe. - Hey.
- What's going on? - What's up?
Nothing much. Just uh...
- Where's Tommy? - He's just sleeping. Sleeping.
OK, wake him up. Time to roll up.
Now wake him up.-
Fuck you. Don't fucking look at me like that.
- Don't fuck... - No, just relax don't...
Don't fucking look at me like that.
I'll roll you right now...
Tommy!
Tommy. Tommy. Tommy.
Tommy, are you there? Tommy. Tommy. Tommy!
Tommy! No!
No, no! What did you do? What did you do?
What did you do?
Come back, please.
- Please open up, Jimmy. - Is that Joey?
Yeah, it's me.
- Joey, it's late I'm... - Can you please open?
I said you needed help, but I didn't say I was gonna do it.
Let it out. Let it all out. Don't hold back.
You gotta get every drop in there, otherwise you're gonna be cleaning it up.
Here you go.
Oh...
It's good.
OK, man, this is chicken broth.
You have to get it down.
That's good.
- Now help feed yourself, come on. - Yes.
Let me make something crystal fucking clear to you right now.
I'm not doing this for you. This is for me.
This is God's will. He's working through me.
I'm just the messenger here and this is your God's shot.
I don't deserve any another shot.
Now you're majorly whisking this.
This is just about to make me vomit. Why don't you just man up?
I know that you've got what they call fisher king wound and you've got in spades.
You don't even know what happened.
You know, I don't give a fuck what happened.
What's important is what are you gonna do about it?
You know what happens to other motherfuckers like us who drink?
We are rendered female.
And the alcohol just knocks the logical mind right out of our fucking heads.
When we turn into blubbering little wussies, just like you are now.
"Oh, why did the whole world do this to me, who did this to me.
Why? I can't do that.
I couldn't get, couldn't do this."
Like what do you got? A fucking vagina in there?
Fuck you.
Yeah, fuck me. Yeah, fuck me, right.
No, fuck you.
Do something about yourself.
As I said to you before,
you got to do good to feel good.
You don't go out, get all fucking high and feel good to do good.
That don't work bro, not at all.
It's spiritual teachings of Marcus Aurelius.
- You read it? - No.
How... Why does that surprise me?
If it isn't true, don't say it.
If it's not right, don't do it.
Maybe, you ought to get that tattooed
on your skinny little fucking chest.
Oh, it's called an alchemical process, by the way.
You have to burn from the inside to the outside to get to the gold.
Reading ain't gonna fix this.
You know, motherfucker, I got news for you.
You came to me. You showed up on my doorstep.
You got me involved. Now you're in country.
You're in Vietnam, you're little soldier boy
who's gonna start to fucking step, right now. Right now!
Boom. Wake up.
Fucker. Candy ass twerk.
Better keep it tight.
- There you go. - With the left.
One, two, yeah.
Argh! Ah!
Oh!
- You play against yourself? - Yeah.
If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by yourself.
Napoleon Hill, he's on the shelf.
- Wanna play? - Does a bear shit in the woods?
- Oh, you're an asshole? - Yeah, come on.
Really? OK, bring it.
Alright.
Choose your side.
No, Joey, choose your side.
What? I just did. What does it matter?
OK, it doesn't matter?
Yeah.
You just ain't getting it, are you?
Do you wanna fucking play chess or what?
Yeah, I'll play you when you're ready.
- I am ready. - No, you ain't.
"Law: The Universe will give back action for action..."
Here we must look one step ahead and guard against the danger
of accepting surrender as a sort of...
I'm out of here.
Yeah? Where are you gonna go?
- It doesn't matter. - Wow, man.
Do you know there has been a real shift in your consciousness?
Whether you believe that or not.
You've got nine days sober as of today.
Nine days, yeah? Did you know that?
- Yeah. - Nine days, not bad.
You could be a potent person.
You might even deserve another shot.
Maybe.
But I don't think your balls have dropped yet.
You know what? You know what? Who the fuck do you think you are
talking to me like that? Huh?
I'll fucking smash you right here and nobody will even know about it.
When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
You've cracked the code.
Cracked it wide open.
You've just got to learn how to decipher it.
Who where I turn this.
It means you turn a boy...
In psychological terms, it means an older man whose emotional life
has remained in an adolescent stage. Sounds familiar, kiddo?
Was that a sigh?
That's good. That's the sigh of acknowledgment.
That's good.
- I don't have anything left. - Oh God, do you know, your lack of self confidence
is just it's... It's putrefying, really is.
Just, you know, get off your ass man. You know, are you a loser?
- No. - No?
- No. - You're not the joke that they
all think that you are?
- No. - No? I don't believe you.
Are you willing to take action?
Are you just gonna leave here now and go right back where you were?
Go out there cry, feel sorry for yourself?
I'm gonna do something about it.
Yeah? OK, well, then do it.
Do the actual footwork that is necessary.
OK.
- The rest you leave to the gods and goddesses. - OK.
And he said, "Todo right? I thought you said todo fight."
So, since when do they let homeless people in here, huh?
- You took the fucking padding off. - What? Oh.
Hey, Joe. Can we get you a drink?
Grab a chair. Why don't you sit?
- No, Ray, I don't drink. - You now?
He had some very heavy hands back in the day. Very heavy hands.
By the way, I'm very sorry about your loss.
Don't you fucking play games with me, Ray.
Don't you fucking play games with me.
They took the goddamn padding out of those gloves.
They fucking blinded my son.
They blinded him. They ended his career, his life.
I'm telling the whole fucking world about it, unless you do something for me
- and you're gonna do it right now. - And what am I supposed to do?
You're going to give me his fucking rematch. That's what you're going to do.
- Look, I can't do that. - Bullshit. You can do anything.
You know, you look like you could use a few bucks.
You name it. How much?
Right here.
Really? You sure you wanna do this?
- You got a problem here? - I don't know, maybe.
This is Joe Romano. Tommy's dad.
- So? - So he wants to fight you.
I'll fight him.
Wow, wow, wow. Save it for the ring. At least, let me sell some tickets, huh?
OK, Joe, you get your fight. You got 30 days.
That's all you got?
The worse you look, the better you are.
You look like shit.
Rome wasn't built in a day.
Joe, you called me yesterday, you call me today.
Stop calling me.
You think you lost Tommy. I lost Tommy too. He was my son too.
Stop calling me, Joe. Stop calling me.
Give me one good reason why I should do this for you, Joe.
You're not doing this for me. You're doing this for Tommy.
Come on man. OK, OK.
Joe, there's... There's two kinds of people in this world.
There's the hedonists and then there's the stoics.
The hedonists, they do whatever they can fucking do to feel good.
Stoic does what's right, no matter how it feels.
Come on!
- Are you a looser? - Six, seven.
You're not the joke that they all think that you are.
You could be important person.
You might even deserve another shot.
Come on!
There you go.
If you do not conquer self, you will be conquered by yourself.
Thanks, Jim. I'm here with a man with the Midas touch, also known as Mr. Ray Bruno.
Now tell me, Mr. Bruno, why would you let a fight like this take place?
Well it's America, baby. And if you believe in yourself,
anything's possible, huh? Ha, ha, ha...
OK, well, if that doesn't sum it up, what does? Jim, back to you.
Hey, Joe.
I think you should have this.
- Thank you, Jim. - Ah.
- Wanna get me a minute alone? - Yeah, yeah. Sure. Take your time.
When I let go of what I am...
I become what I might be.
Let's get ready for an exciting fight tonight.
Introducing the challenger, with a record of 17 wins and four losses.
This fighter has not stepped in the ring in almost 20 years.
Ladies and gentlemen, Joe Romano!
And now, ladies and gentlemen
hailing from Cuba via The Bronx...
With a record of 23 wins, one loss.
- Miguel Justo! - Justo! Justo!
Justo! Justo!
OK, guys, bring them in.
Gentlemen, you received your instructions in the dressing room. I want a good clean fight.
Obey my commands at all times, above all, protect yourselves at all times.
- Touch 'em up, I said touch 'em up. - Go.
Justo! Justo! Justo!
I think he's just throwing again. I think he saw a ghost over there.
That's sweet, you know what I mean. This is, you know... I can't take this seriously.
- Oh. Oh. - What a left.
Come on!
What happened to Tommy?
I cannot handle your bullshit right now.
It's just that I have to go take care of Tommy.
Cathy, what happened to Tommy?
It seems like the progress is amateur at this point.
Yes, left, right body shots.
Break! Break!
Joe, are you a punching bag or something?
Who where I turn this?
That means an older man whose emotional life
has remained at an adolescent stage.
Sound familiar, kiddo? You got to do good to feel good.
Do not give a fuck what's happened, what's important is what are you gonna do about it.
You have to burn from the inside
to the outside to get to the gold.
You've cracked the code, cracked it wide open.
You just got to learn how to decipher it.
Look at me. What's wrong with you?
You are going to go in there and you're going to finish him.
You understand me? Finish him.
Finish him!
Come on, dude. You're blowing this fight.
Throw some punches. Work on your body. Break him down.
You're a better fighter, man. Look at me, look at me.
Show me something, please. Get in there. Work this out. Come on.
- Referee is now starting the count. - Oh.
One, two, three,
four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine.
- You alright? - Yeah.
- You want to continue? - Yes.
Come on. You got to work with your body.
You got to work it out. You got to move your head.
Be focused.
Fight!
- One! - You're a drunk, Dad. You're a drunk.
Two. Three.
Argh!
Four. Five.
Six.
You're in Vietnam. You're a little soldier boy
who's gonna start to fucking step right now. Right now!
Seven.
Get off your ass, man. Are you a loser?
You're not the joke that they all think that you are?
Eight.
When I let go of what I am,
I become what I might be.
Gloves.
You good?
- You want to go on? - Yes.
Stop the fight, guys.
There is blood oozing into his eyes and down the right side of his cheek.
Right now, a moan mostly.
You two.
OK. Fight!
Fight back, fight back, champion. Boom!
One...
Four. Five. Six.
This was something unbelievable. This is unbelievable.
