1
00:00:56,740 --> 00:01:00,840
We'll be right

2
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:15,920
back.

3
00:01:38,039 --> 00:01:44,400
And now, for your entertainment
pleasure, while we get ready for the

4
00:01:44,700 --> 00:01:45,700
give it up!

5
00:01:52,050 --> 00:01:53,730
We're going to get him.

6
00:01:54,010 --> 00:01:55,810
You ain't got no muscles here.

7
00:01:56,530 --> 00:01:58,450
Get down and give me this, bro.

8
00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:22,060
I thought Lewis, the night that he beat
Braddock, won the title.

9
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,120
1937.

10
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:31,340
Straight right into the jaw of Christ.
They could have counted to 50.

11
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,440
He was the best heavyweight that ever
fought under the modern rules. No

12
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,000
discussion. The best.

13
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,520
Then the fucking government chased him
about tax.

14
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:44,440
Fuck the IRS.

15
00:02:44,580 --> 00:02:47,280
Fucking bureaucrat assholes.

16
00:03:12,010 --> 00:03:13,570
In the name of the Lord, amen.

17
00:03:50,990 --> 00:03:55,850
And at 230 pounds, wearing the green
trunks with the gold trim. He is

18
00:03:55,850 --> 00:03:58,070
with eight wins and no losses.

19
00:03:58,450 --> 00:04:00,370
Representing the state prison at Lodi.

20
00:04:00,650 --> 00:04:01,650
The great fight.

21
00:04:02,290 --> 00:04:09,230
Now in the east trunk.

22
00:04:09,350 --> 00:04:11,630
He's also undefeated and defending
champion.

23
00:04:11,950 --> 00:04:17,350
With a record of 67 wins and no losses.
Weighing in at 191 pounds.

24
00:04:17,870 --> 00:04:20,029
Wearing the burgundy trunks with the
black trim.

25
00:04:20,410 --> 00:04:22,910
Sweet blood is all mine, bro.

26
00:04:23,510 --> 00:04:24,510
Hunter!

27
00:04:39,830 --> 00:04:46,650
All right, now, shit birds, y 'all

28
00:04:46,650 --> 00:04:47,650
both know the rules.

29
00:04:48,110 --> 00:04:49,530
I want a nice, clean fight.

30
00:04:49,850 --> 00:04:51,750
Nothing below the belt. You understand
me?

31
00:04:52,750 --> 00:04:53,750
Let's bounce.

32
00:04:59,770 --> 00:05:03,070
Now, remember, brother convicts, if you
learn how to act, they wouldn't have to

33
00:05:03,070 --> 00:05:06,410
fight inside of a cave. And be on your
best behavior, too, because we don't

34
00:05:06,410 --> 00:05:09,470
no incidents, all right? Now, let's see
what the pride of Lodi has to offer

35
00:05:09,470 --> 00:05:10,470
against the great Monroe.

36
00:05:11,130 --> 00:05:12,930
Give Hitler's cousin his lunch, baby.

37
00:05:13,210 --> 00:05:14,830
It's all you, baby. It's all you.

38
00:05:15,730 --> 00:05:16,730
Yeah.

39
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,940
If there go the bell, here we go.

40
00:05:26,460 --> 00:05:28,840
Monroe comes down to Clemson with a
knife left hand.

41
00:05:29,460 --> 00:05:30,700
And another left hand.

42
00:05:33,660 --> 00:05:37,720
Monroe just feel about popping with a
little left hand. He gonna shine that

43
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:38,720
head up for sure.

44
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:14,179
Excuse me, sir.

45
00:06:14,180 --> 00:06:15,700
We just got some big news.

46
00:06:15,940 --> 00:06:19,040
The word is the Iceman's day of arrival
is tomorrow.

47
00:06:20,100 --> 00:06:21,400
ETA 2 p .m.

48
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,060
Now, Bird fans there said he got those
brand new tattoos just when it's the

49
00:06:25,060 --> 00:06:27,280
case. Well, Bird told it like the party.

50
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:49,520
We'll cut to the end.

51
00:07:39,660 --> 00:07:44,220
He's coming to sweep on the so -called
undisputed heavyweight champion of the

52
00:07:44,220 --> 00:07:45,220
world!

53
00:08:16,310 --> 00:08:18,930
California's newly built Sweetwater
Prison in the Mojave Desert.

54
00:08:19,450 --> 00:08:20,710
How's all this going for you?

55
00:08:22,330 --> 00:08:23,330
I'll be okay.

56
00:08:23,890 --> 00:08:26,830
I got a bad break. I just got to play
this thing out.

57
00:08:27,130 --> 00:08:32,590
Your lawyers have filed all the expected
appeals, but realistically, what do you

58
00:08:32,590 --> 00:08:36,809
think of your chances of getting out
before serving the full sentence of six

59
00:08:36,809 --> 00:08:37,809
eight years?

60
00:08:38,309 --> 00:08:42,429
I'm not supposed to talk about that
legal stuff. My people don't want me

61
00:08:42,429 --> 00:08:43,429
commenting on that.

62
00:08:44,680 --> 00:08:48,560
Boxing experts tend to agree that even
as little as two years in a prison

63
00:08:48,560 --> 00:08:52,680
without proper training could mean the
end for a boxer your age. Now, you're

64
00:08:52,680 --> 00:08:56,400
regarded as one of the greatest
offensive fighters in the history of the

65
00:08:56,500 --> 00:09:02,640
An attacker like Dempsey, Joe Lewis,
Rocky Marciano, Joe Frazier. Just

66
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,460
how damaging to your skills is this
prison stint likely to be?

67
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,540
No damage. I'll stay in shape, work out.

68
00:09:10,970 --> 00:09:12,370
Watch what I eat, I'll be fine.

69
00:09:12,570 --> 00:09:16,250
But when an athlete is removed from
competition... That's where you're

70
00:09:16,250 --> 00:09:17,610
one big mistake right off.

71
00:09:18,550 --> 00:09:19,610
I'm not an athlete.

72
00:09:20,990 --> 00:09:22,090
I'm a gladiator.

73
00:09:22,750 --> 00:09:23,910
How do you define that?

74
00:09:24,790 --> 00:09:26,130
People play baseball.

75
00:09:26,930 --> 00:09:28,570
Nobody plays boxing.

76
00:09:29,810 --> 00:09:34,170
Iceman, last week after you were
convicted, boxing's various so -called

77
00:09:34,170 --> 00:09:38,030
governing bodies began stripping you of
your title belts. Stripping you of...

78
00:09:38,030 --> 00:09:39,450
Who do they think they're kidding?

79
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,620
Everybody knows I'm the champ.

80
00:09:42,140 --> 00:09:43,860
And I'm going to be the champ until I
quit.

81
00:10:05,100 --> 00:10:08,800
This fight with Manfredi is meant to be
just a tune -up towards the Iceman

82
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,320
Chambers. Hopefully lead to two kicks
about with Montel Briscoe, undefeated

83
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:14,840
holder of the WBC crown.

84
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,920
The two biggest names in boxing on a
collision course sometime next year.

85
00:10:19,220 --> 00:10:22,340
Assuming the Iceman gets by the South
American calendar.

86
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,140
It's round 11 and one to go and it's all
Iceman.

87
00:10:30,380 --> 00:10:33,460
He's talking Manfredi, chasing the big
South American.

88
00:10:38,090 --> 00:10:39,890
Iceman with the right. Another right.

89
00:10:40,190 --> 00:10:41,850
Another right hand. Left to the body.

90
00:10:43,110 --> 00:10:46,270
Oh, and a right hand uppercut. That's
staggered, Manfredi.

91
00:10:47,310 --> 00:10:48,310
Iceman's stalking him.

92
00:10:48,570 --> 00:10:50,310
He knows he's got him hurt. Oh, body
shot.

93
00:10:50,670 --> 00:10:52,170
Right left to the body.

94
00:10:52,370 --> 00:10:53,650
Left hook and he's down.

95
00:10:53,930 --> 00:10:55,330
He's down. He's down.

96
00:10:55,630 --> 00:10:57,790
That's why they call him the Iceman.

97
00:10:59,590 --> 00:11:03,250
Carlos Manfredi gets a one -way ticket
back to Brazil.

98
00:11:05,740 --> 00:11:11,020
George Iceman Chambers remains
undefeated heavyweight champion and the

99
00:11:11,020 --> 00:11:12,020
on the block.

100
00:11:13,980 --> 00:11:19,840
Are you fighting Montel next?

101
00:11:20,180 --> 00:11:24,200
Just another sucker who's going to get
his ass whipped. If the money's right,

102
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,160
bring on Montel. Nobody's running,
nobody's stuck.

103
00:11:27,500 --> 00:11:31,140
Nobody. I mean, nobody can stand up to
what I get.

104
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:32,440
Does that include Montel?

105
00:11:32,740 --> 00:11:35,040
Oh, yeah, that damn sure includes
Montel.

106
00:11:38,740 --> 00:11:42,060
Estimates are up to $300 million for the
pay -per -view gate alone.

107
00:11:42,380 --> 00:11:43,440
Any comment on that?

108
00:11:43,860 --> 00:11:45,040
Let's make the deal first.

109
00:11:45,380 --> 00:11:49,040
My first guess is you're a few million
short.

110
00:11:49,900 --> 00:11:54,080
And Iceman, it's nine months till
summer. What's next for you? Well, first

111
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,540
all, I'm going to go to L .A., you know,
see some friends.

112
00:11:57,230 --> 00:11:58,330
Then I'm going to do a little party.

113
00:12:01,990 --> 00:12:02,990
Hey, okay.

114
00:12:03,590 --> 00:12:04,449
That's it.

115
00:12:04,450 --> 00:12:08,630
I've done things in my life maybe I
shouldn't have. I know that. But I did

116
00:12:08,630 --> 00:12:10,450
want to, and I told him no.

117
00:12:17,610 --> 00:12:19,010
He'll be moving into a new home.

118
00:12:20,410 --> 00:12:25,250
Going to live with murderers and thieves
in California's newly built Sweetwater

119
00:12:25,250 --> 00:12:26,430
Prison in the Mojave Desert.

120
00:12:26,970 --> 00:12:30,490
Without getting into legal strategy,
let's discuss your trial. You continue

121
00:12:30,490 --> 00:12:31,490
maintain your innocence.

122
00:12:31,610 --> 00:12:32,610
I didn't rape nobody.

123
00:12:33,110 --> 00:12:36,550
I mean, I've done a lot of wrong shit in
my life, but I ain't no punk -ass

124
00:12:36,550 --> 00:12:39,730
rapist. I mean, look at me. What I got
to rape somebody for?

125
00:13:15,199 --> 00:13:16,520
You see him through the window?

126
00:13:16,980 --> 00:13:20,280
Big deal's got his own helicopter
service instead of coming in here on the

127
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:22,840
He's the champ.

128
00:13:24,620 --> 00:13:28,500
Don't think negative, man. I don't want
to hear that shit. This is your house.

129
00:13:28,500 --> 00:13:29,500
Who owned this place?

130
00:13:31,540 --> 00:13:33,460
This is my house. I can get up and
leave.

131
00:13:44,110 --> 00:13:45,110
He's here.

132
00:13:45,290 --> 00:13:46,510
Just getting out of the helicopter.

133
00:13:47,390 --> 00:13:49,050
Maybe you'd like to meet him, Mr. Rich
Dean.

134
00:13:49,590 --> 00:13:51,810
I could bring him over. You two could
talk box.

135
00:13:52,550 --> 00:13:54,490
I'll tell you what I want to talk.

136
00:14:02,270 --> 00:14:08,050
Why couldn't your high -priced team of
lawyers convince a judge and a jury?

137
00:14:08,530 --> 00:14:12,550
Because I put people in body bags on TV
and get paid a lot of money for it.

138
00:14:12,730 --> 00:14:16,570
Because I'm a big, bad, black
motherfucker. That's why nobody believes

139
00:14:16,970 --> 00:14:21,950
I have received over 170 requests for
interviews with you, Mr. Chambers,

140
00:14:22,070 --> 00:14:26,330
networks, local TV, cable, every
newspaper organization in the country,

141
00:14:26,330 --> 00:14:30,790
press, foreign TV, you name it. I have
turned them all down.

142
00:14:31,990 --> 00:14:37,810
Mr. Chambers, here is Sweetwater,
maximum security level five state

143
00:14:37,810 --> 00:14:40,190
institution with nearly 700 prisoners.

144
00:14:41,420 --> 00:14:46,640
We house only murderers, armed robbers,
rapists, and those with connections to

145
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,800
gangs and other forms of organized
crime.

146
00:14:49,460 --> 00:14:54,800
The state is trying to spare lesser
criminals the contaminating influence of

147
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:55,880
these more hardened types.

148
00:14:57,140 --> 00:15:00,820
Now, we don't want any incidents that
might add to your already great

149
00:15:00,820 --> 00:15:01,940
difficulties, Mr. Chambers.

150
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:03,760
This is Mr. Merker.

151
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,500
He's the senior prison officer. He's the
head guard.

152
00:15:07,070 --> 00:15:10,190
This is Ms. Early, our administrative
officer. She can arrange for religious

153
00:15:10,190 --> 00:15:12,010
counsel or instruction if you wish.

154
00:15:12,750 --> 00:15:13,750
Whatever.

155
00:15:13,970 --> 00:15:16,670
I need a CD player and some CDs.

156
00:15:17,330 --> 00:15:20,290
I'll give you a list. My people on the
outside will pay for it all.

157
00:15:20,570 --> 00:15:24,270
Not possible for the first six months.
It's privilege. It has to be earned. Any

158
00:15:24,270 --> 00:15:26,830
and all privileges will depend upon your
general conduct.

159
00:15:28,230 --> 00:15:32,810
Mr. Chambers, you have been convicted
and sent here for the crime of rape.

160
00:15:32,890 --> 00:15:34,370
That's a very serious matter.

161
00:15:34,860 --> 00:15:39,560
If you'd take advantage of this
opportunity to apologize to this woman

162
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:43,060
sports fans and the American public for
letting them down. Heck, even the former

163
00:15:43,060 --> 00:15:44,060
president.

164
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:49,300
President, I'm apologizing not to you,
not to her, not to nobody.

165
00:15:49,540 --> 00:15:53,300
If you let me have this damn gate
between you and me, I'd rip your new

166
00:15:53,540 --> 00:15:54,620
your judgmental mother.

167
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,040
Got a name?

168
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:31,840
Mingo.

169
00:16:33,620 --> 00:16:39,560
Mingo, move your shit, stay out of my
way, get along just fine.

170
00:16:46,500 --> 00:16:49,240
Listen, it's an honor to be cellmates
with you.

171
00:16:49,780 --> 00:16:51,020
I don't want no trouble, champ.

172
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,880
No trouble, you're just going to stay
out of my way.

173
00:16:55,020 --> 00:16:58,880
He just thinks he's the king because
he's a heavyweight champ. He's the man.

174
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,820
But for some of us others, we have
rights too, and I have the right to say

175
00:17:03,820 --> 00:17:04,820
I didn't want to.

176
00:17:05,660 --> 00:17:07,980
I want everybody to keep a distance.

177
00:17:09,380 --> 00:17:13,740
I don't need to make no new friends or
hear no sad stories on why they're here.

178
00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:15,780
I got my own sad story for that.

179
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,880
I ain't loaning nobody no money, so you
tell them don't even ask.

180
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,339
And I don't want nobody talking to me
unless I talk to him first.

181
00:17:25,300 --> 00:17:26,300
You get that?

182
00:17:27,060 --> 00:17:28,060
Got it.

183
00:17:28,540 --> 00:17:29,700
Leave the champ alone.

184
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,580
I know boxing.

185
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,780
I've seen a lot of fights.

186
00:17:43,940 --> 00:17:45,220
You're a good champion.

187
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:47,880
Who the hell are you?

188
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:49,980
This is Mendy Ripstein.

189
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:51,700
He's a very important man in here.

190
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:53,280
Ripstein.

191
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,640
Yeah, my manager, Yank Lewis, he told me
to say hello.

192
00:17:57,780 --> 00:17:59,120
I don't remember him.

193
00:17:59,860 --> 00:18:03,620
He said you two were friends in Miami
about 25 years ago.

194
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,240
I didn't have any friends in Miami.

195
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,400
A lot of people, they say they knew me
from the old days.

196
00:18:10,660 --> 00:18:11,660
They're full of shit.

197
00:18:12,380 --> 00:18:13,700
You're a good champion.

198
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,140
But we got a champion right here.

199
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,520
And he can kick your ass.

200
00:18:25,420 --> 00:18:26,460
You're kidding me.

201
00:18:26,900 --> 00:18:31,160
I watch all your plays. You're not as
good as you are. You're just looking for

202
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:32,180
one big punch.

203
00:18:32,820 --> 00:18:34,440
You're not throwing combinations.

204
00:18:35,820 --> 00:18:39,200
You're not using as much head movement
on the fence.

205
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,860
Yeah, right, old man. I'm just knocking
motherfuckers out.

206
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,180
Who's the punk in here you got in mind?

207
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,680
Oh, did I hurt your feelings?

208
00:18:50,029 --> 00:18:51,029
Fuck you.

209
00:18:59,530 --> 00:19:01,650
Monroe. Name's Monroe Hutchin.

210
00:19:02,310 --> 00:19:04,350
Mr. Richardson thinks he can whip up on
you, man.

211
00:19:04,790 --> 00:19:05,790
No offense.

212
00:19:06,230 --> 00:19:07,570
Not trying to cause any trouble here.

213
00:19:33,750 --> 00:19:34,750
It's real in here.

214
00:19:35,090 --> 00:19:38,950
This is not just how it feels in here.
When you try to be the top boss, put

215
00:19:38,950 --> 00:19:40,910
gloves on in. This here be the sport of
man.

216
00:19:41,150 --> 00:19:43,870
Everybody who's shot at me. One word,
you'll get knocked out.

217
00:19:44,130 --> 00:19:46,570
Rocked out the box. Only men leave a
place like this.

218
00:19:46,990 --> 00:19:49,870
Parkour, I'm in your face like this.
Tell your mama that you'll never come

219
00:19:50,030 --> 00:19:51,370
Tell your mama that you'll never come
home.

220
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,460
One of these suckers in here is Monroe
Hudson.

221
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:11,880
He's over there in line.

222
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,000
Wearing a white cap.

223
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,060
Brought in some big guys in here.

224
00:20:18,980 --> 00:20:19,980
He beat them all.

225
00:20:21,900 --> 00:20:23,660
It ain't only about being big.

226
00:20:24,420 --> 00:20:25,960
You gotta have skills, son.

227
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:46,740
I guess you know who I am.

228
00:20:47,940 --> 00:20:49,460
Are you the champion in here?

229
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:52,440
Yeah.

230
00:20:54,140 --> 00:20:55,400
Not the heavyweight champ.

231
00:20:59,500 --> 00:21:00,500
Champion.

232
00:21:01,780 --> 00:21:03,360
Heavyweight or any other kind they got.

233
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,740
I didn't even know they had boxing in a
place like this.

234
00:21:09,180 --> 00:21:10,480
Well, it's a special program.

235
00:21:11,540 --> 00:21:13,460
We only get bouts every six months.

236
00:21:14,430 --> 00:21:16,390
Mostly we fight guys from other prisons.

237
00:21:17,830 --> 00:21:19,230
How long you been on top?

238
00:21:19,670 --> 00:21:20,670
Ten years.

239
00:21:21,630 --> 00:21:22,990
Ever since I got in here.

240
00:21:24,210 --> 00:21:28,650
Damn. Brother, that's a real fine record
you got. I gotta congratulate you.

241
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:45,000
I'm giving you another chance.

242
00:21:46,180 --> 00:21:50,040
I am inclined to overlook what happened
this afternoon and not make it a part of

243
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:51,040
your official record.

244
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,720
Look, let's get something straight, Mr.
Warden.

245
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,740
I'm not just some convict doing five to
ten.

246
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,520
I'm a real big deal.

247
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:08,720
Not only am I a heavyweight champ,
but... I'm close to being the most

248
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,100
in the world. So if you think you're
going to lean on me like these punks you

249
00:22:12,100 --> 00:22:17,140
got in here, you better think again.
Because if anything happens to me, oh,

250
00:22:17,140 --> 00:22:19,540
going to be on the 6 o 'clock news
worldwide.

251
00:22:20,180 --> 00:22:23,800
There's going to be a whole lot of
people asking a whole lot of questions.

252
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,220
you and your little crew here better
know that.

253
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,680
Just my luck he got sent here.

254
00:22:28,420 --> 00:22:32,520
Ice man, my ass. He's just another
goddamn thug. Yeah, one who happens to

255
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,280
world champion in a potential public
relations nightmare.

256
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:50,080
Mr. Hodgson, you know the little problem
you had with the Iceman yesterday?

257
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,320
Got you in some trouble.

258
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:55,560
Heavyweight champ.

259
00:22:56,740 --> 00:22:58,320
Man gave me a cheap shot.

260
00:22:58,760 --> 00:22:59,760
Yeah, I know.

261
00:23:00,180 --> 00:23:04,140
But according to higher powers, you
contributed to a situation that

262
00:23:04,140 --> 00:23:08,360
violence. One thing you ought to know by
now, Monroe, life ain't fair.

263
00:23:08,780 --> 00:23:09,800
Not fair at all.

264
00:23:19,310 --> 00:23:21,850
Look, the warden understands what he's
doing is unfortunate.

265
00:23:22,550 --> 00:23:25,850
But unless Mr. Hutchins and the Iceman
are separated, there will be enormous

266
00:23:25,850 --> 00:23:27,710
pressure for another physical
confrontation.

267
00:23:28,870 --> 00:23:30,550
Nobody likes this, but Mr.

268
00:23:30,770 --> 00:23:33,690
Hutchins' presence is an incitement to
violence, and he will be kept in there

269
00:23:33,690 --> 00:23:37,270
until such time as we can make
arrangements for his travel to another

270
00:23:52,780 --> 00:23:53,779
Hey, Monroe.

271
00:23:53,780 --> 00:23:55,300
Take care of yourself in there, Monroe.

272
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,480
New duty roster just got posted.

273
00:24:12,780 --> 00:24:14,240
You're working in the kitchen with me.

274
00:24:16,360 --> 00:24:20,240
Look, since we're going to be stuck
together, put you in here for it.

275
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:29,120
I don't mean to be telling you what to
do or anything, but it's not considered

276
00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:30,680
polite to ask when we're here.

277
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,900
It's a kind of violation of the ethics,
you know, the code.

278
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,300
People kind of take it as disrespectful.

279
00:24:39,860 --> 00:24:43,580
Yo, you keeping in shape, Mr. Iceman?

280
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:46,680
Who's this chump?

281
00:24:47,660 --> 00:24:48,740
Call him Ratbag.

282
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:50,600
Runs with Monroe.

283
00:24:51,820 --> 00:24:53,000
Thinks he's his manager.

284
00:24:54,380 --> 00:24:55,380
Ratbag.

285
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:56,800
Ratbag.

286
00:24:59,980 --> 00:25:03,260
J. Ratbag, what you in here for?

287
00:25:05,940 --> 00:25:07,920
Me? Yeah, you.

288
00:25:12,100 --> 00:25:13,100
Arson.

289
00:25:13,980 --> 00:25:15,800
Nothing up close and personal.

290
00:25:17,340 --> 00:25:18,820
You hit people much?

291
00:25:23,020 --> 00:25:24,020
Punch people?

292
00:25:24,180 --> 00:25:26,180
When you were a kid or since you've been
in here?

293
00:25:26,700 --> 00:25:27,700
Sometimes.

294
00:25:28,620 --> 00:25:30,680
Not much. I never was a physical type.

295
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:33,100
You want to hit me?

296
00:25:36,540 --> 00:25:37,540
What are you, kidding?

297
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:39,820
You can say you did it.

298
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:44,680
I punched the heavyweight champ. You can
tell people all about it. It might even

299
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,000
make you feel good about your little
punk -ass self.

300
00:25:48,100 --> 00:25:50,120
I don't want to hit you, Iceman. Shit.

301
00:25:50,380 --> 00:25:51,380
Sure you do.

302
00:25:51,770 --> 00:25:54,970
You don't even like me. Come on, man. Go
crazy. Let one go.

303
00:25:56,370 --> 00:25:59,690
If I hit you just this once, will that
end it? I won't have to hit you anymore?

304
00:26:00,330 --> 00:26:03,790
All you got to do is hit me one time,
and I'm telling you, man, it's going to

305
00:26:03,790 --> 00:26:06,190
make you feel good, and it ain't going
to hurt me none.

306
00:26:07,510 --> 00:26:08,229
All right.

307
00:26:08,230 --> 00:26:09,230
Just once.

308
00:26:09,290 --> 00:26:12,910
Just to satisfy whatever weird trip
you're on and show you that I'm a good

309
00:26:12,910 --> 00:26:14,210
and I'm trying to do what you want.

310
00:26:14,690 --> 00:26:15,690
Great. Thank you.

311
00:26:16,290 --> 00:26:17,290
Welcome.

312
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:39,640
You're not mad, are you?

313
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,080
No,

314
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:43,560
I'm not mad at you.

315
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:48,360
Now, you go tell Monroe what I said.
Ain't but one champ in here.

316
00:26:49,360 --> 00:26:52,900
And ain't some nickel -and -dime convict
beating up on fools in prison.

317
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,080
Get that bitch out of here.

318
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,760
Yo, a circle of criminals with
subliminals brought to the forefront.

319
00:27:07,380 --> 00:27:14,160
Everybody know I'm in here. Check me.
You'll learn to respect me, homeboy.

320
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:18,300
Come correct me. I'll call you out. Step
up next, man. I better stand up. I'll

321
00:27:18,300 --> 00:27:21,640
check out some posse. Wanna be rocky
niggas that ran up from the aisle.

322
00:27:30,940 --> 00:27:35,140
I think I spent my time making potato
salad.

323
00:27:37,100 --> 00:27:39,840
You know where I come from, we didn't
have any kind of salads.

324
00:27:40,780 --> 00:27:41,780
Where's that?

325
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:43,960
Indian country.

326
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:46,080
Oklahoma.

327
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,500
I know I'm not supposed to ask, but what
you been here for?

328
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,880
I stole some rich guy's Mercedes in L
.A.

329
00:27:59,020 --> 00:28:00,280
I got a Mercedes.

330
00:28:01,260 --> 00:28:02,260
Real.

331
00:28:05,580 --> 00:28:06,580
Mr.

332
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,760
Hutchins, it's Darlene Early, the GAO,
General Administration Officer.

333
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:15,980
I need to do the interview and paperwork
for your transfer to Folsom.

334
00:28:17,120 --> 00:28:18,120
How are your spirits?

335
00:28:19,020 --> 00:28:22,580
I want you to know I'm not in favor of
solitary confinement. Not for you, not

336
00:28:22,580 --> 00:28:23,580
for anybody else.

337
00:28:24,540 --> 00:28:25,620
It's okay in here.

338
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:27,520
You can't be serious.

339
00:28:28,540 --> 00:28:29,700
It's all prison.

340
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:32,880
I live inside my head.

341
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,100
So that's how you're doing your time?
Are you really that much in control of

342
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:39,100
your emotions?

343
00:28:41,900 --> 00:28:43,460
Been that way all my life.

344
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,220
Only time I ever lost it is what got me
in here.

345
00:28:49,580 --> 00:28:51,260
I'm familiar with your case history.

346
00:28:53,100 --> 00:28:55,400
So, you prefer your own company?

347
00:28:56,460 --> 00:28:57,460
Most of the time.

348
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,900
I'm supposed to recommend whether or not
you seem to require a detailed

349
00:29:01,900 --> 00:29:03,080
psychiatric evaluation.

350
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,400
Other than the incident in the mess
hall, you... That wasn't me.

351
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,560
Then why don't you go talk to the
hotshot champ?

352
00:29:10,620 --> 00:29:11,740
Ask him about it.

353
00:29:13,020 --> 00:29:14,500
So you deny any responsibility?

354
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,640
Yeah, I deny it. Now, how does that
affect me moving on?

355
00:29:19,050 --> 00:29:21,090
It has no bearing in your transfer to
Folsom.

356
00:29:24,690 --> 00:29:29,410
You know, this whole thing, this whole
thing is about people being scared.

357
00:29:30,690 --> 00:29:31,730
Aren't you afraid of him?

358
00:29:32,710 --> 00:29:34,490
Afraid? Shit, no.

359
00:29:35,590 --> 00:29:36,890
He's a fighter, I'm a fighter.

360
00:29:37,130 --> 00:29:39,710
If I'm better on that day, I win. That's
just the way it goes.

361
00:29:40,890 --> 00:29:42,130
Someday, every fighter loses.

362
00:29:45,090 --> 00:29:47,590
Sooner or later, somebody comes along
and they got your ticket.

363
00:29:49,710 --> 00:29:53,570
Too old, just wasn't your day, whatever
the reason is.

364
00:29:53,830 --> 00:29:57,330
In the end, everybody gets beaten.

365
00:29:59,610 --> 00:30:02,030
Most you can hope for is that you stay
on top a while.

366
00:30:03,990 --> 00:30:04,990
Be the best.

367
00:30:08,770 --> 00:30:12,530
I tried to say hello to that old
gangster.

368
00:30:13,390 --> 00:30:15,430
Ripstein, he said he don't remember you.

369
00:30:15,650 --> 00:30:16,650
He remembers.

370
00:30:16,830 --> 00:30:18,270
He just don't want to admit it.

371
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:20,400
Standard mob procedure.

372
00:30:21,260 --> 00:30:23,160
Guys like him tonight ever had a mother.

373
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:27,040
How do you make it out?

374
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,760
Shit, but I can handle it.

375
00:30:30,460 --> 00:30:32,340
Rumor going around you almost started a
riot.

376
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,600
It was all bullshit, man.

377
00:30:35,020 --> 00:30:37,540
I had to let the peeps in here know
who's the boss.

378
00:30:37,980 --> 00:30:41,100
Hey, just keep your goddamn nose clean,
okay? You already got enough problems.

379
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,520
Since they stripped you of your title,
they're having this elimination

380
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,260
tournament to figure out a new champ.

381
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,360
Everybody thinks Briscoe's a lock to win
it.

382
00:30:52,500 --> 00:30:55,300
Word is, Montel's fighting Jimmy Stubbs
in July.

383
00:30:55,700 --> 00:30:56,800
Jimmy Stubbs a bum.

384
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:01,280
The good news is, you get out of here,
fight the new champ.

385
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,180
We're looking at the biggest payday in
boxing history.

386
00:31:04,940 --> 00:31:06,120
Mm -hmm. Yeah.

387
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:11,380
Only one thing I can tell you, you lost
a lot of fan base with this conviction

388
00:31:11,380 --> 00:31:13,260
thing. Fuck the fans.

389
00:31:14,220 --> 00:31:16,220
I get out of here, I'll get them back.

390
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:21,570
Hey. The fans pay your bills, and don't
you ever forget it.

391
00:31:23,010 --> 00:31:24,010
Yeah.

392
00:31:24,470 --> 00:31:27,490
Now, you got to keep the pressure on
these lawyers, okay? Get you out of here

393
00:31:27,490 --> 00:31:29,530
fight this big money fight with Briscoe.

394
00:31:30,070 --> 00:31:33,190
Yeah. I mean, you can't be serving no
full sentence.

395
00:31:33,710 --> 00:31:35,550
You're 35 years old. Time is ticking.

396
00:31:36,090 --> 00:31:39,310
Everything you ever worked for, it's
going right out the window.

397
00:31:58,580 --> 00:32:01,440
He remembers things from a long time
ago, clear as a bell.

398
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:03,780
But every day, I gotta tell him who I
am.

399
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:06,660
He's in another world.

400
00:32:07,140 --> 00:32:08,320
Cuba, 40 years ago.

401
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,480
With some fight he saw in 1953.

402
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,120
Then all of a sudden, he's right there
with you.

403
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:15,520
Like everything's normal.

404
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,080
And mean.

405
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:18,280
He could be mean as shit.

406
00:32:18,780 --> 00:32:23,080
Look, we went to the M .A. We paid good
money for his protection and his

407
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:24,080
personal needs.

408
00:32:24,540 --> 00:32:25,720
They gave you the job.

409
00:32:26,220 --> 00:32:27,840
I got him an oversized cell.

410
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:30,540
Ground level, so you don't have to use
the stairs.

411
00:32:31,380 --> 00:32:32,380
Food privileges.

412
00:32:33,620 --> 00:32:34,620
Relaxed dress code.

413
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:36,080
Big easy chair.

414
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,100
I even got him his own little boxing
library.

415
00:32:39,380 --> 00:32:40,380
And he's safe.

416
00:32:40,420 --> 00:32:41,420
I promise.

417
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,160
These guys I got, they don't let any
harm come his way.

418
00:32:56,959 --> 00:32:59,160
Hey, Chief.

419
00:33:14,250 --> 00:33:16,190
How are you getting along with your new
cellmate?

420
00:33:16,870 --> 00:33:17,870
He's okay.

421
00:33:20,490 --> 00:33:23,530
You know, rumor has it he took down one
of the skinheads.

422
00:33:25,950 --> 00:33:27,770
A lot of rumors in prison, you know.

423
00:33:29,610 --> 00:33:31,490
Eh, probably deserted anyone.

424
00:33:32,870 --> 00:33:33,870
Maybe.

425
00:33:43,850 --> 00:33:45,790
We hear you don't want to associate with
anybody around here.

426
00:33:47,270 --> 00:33:49,130
Maybe you got way too much attitude,
man.

427
00:33:59,270 --> 00:34:04,310
There is an expert. He's the man on
appeals.

428
00:34:05,070 --> 00:34:08,610
But before we talk about your appeal, I
need to tell you about Miss Tawny

429
00:34:08,610 --> 00:34:09,610
Rollins.

430
00:34:09,830 --> 00:34:12,489
She's filed a civil lawsuit in the
amount of $75 million.

431
00:34:17,550 --> 00:34:19,949
I'd recommend an outside attorney,
another specialist.

432
00:34:20,530 --> 00:34:22,730
However we can handle your tax
litigation.

433
00:34:23,130 --> 00:34:25,389
The government has filed an intent to
audit.

434
00:34:25,630 --> 00:34:27,370
We have someone in the firm that can
deal with that.

435
00:34:27,610 --> 00:34:30,850
Well, is any of this covered by the $2
million I already paid you?

436
00:34:31,449 --> 00:34:33,170
We get the same deal as you get.

437
00:34:33,670 --> 00:34:35,330
You get paid win or lose, right?

438
00:34:36,090 --> 00:34:37,090
So do we.

439
00:34:37,370 --> 00:34:40,449
There are a couple of procedural areas
that are still in question.

440
00:34:40,790 --> 00:34:42,130
Possible reversible error.

441
00:34:42,830 --> 00:34:43,850
I'm not going to kid you.

442
00:34:44,210 --> 00:34:45,530
I'd make us a long shot.

443
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,300
You're looking at a six - to eight -year
sentence with possible time off for

444
00:34:49,300 --> 00:34:50,300
good behavior.

445
00:34:50,580 --> 00:34:54,760
Now, in California, that means you're
eligible for parole in four years.

446
00:34:55,159 --> 00:34:59,340
What you need to focus on is if you
become a model prisoner, exhibit special

447
00:34:59,340 --> 00:35:04,400
circumstances, you can be considered for
work furlough as soon as 18 months to

448
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:05,400
two years.

449
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,660
So it don't matter whether I did it or
not? It doesn't work that way.

450
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,020
Justice and the law are separate issues.

451
00:35:12,300 --> 00:35:14,300
Let's get back to some of your other
problems.

452
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:15,840
We've done an audit.

453
00:35:16,060 --> 00:35:18,020
Your financial situation is a mess.

454
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:19,280
No, that's bullshit.

455
00:35:19,300 --> 00:35:20,300
No bullshit.

456
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:25,240
Big financial settlements with your ex
-wives, entourage, bad investments and

457
00:35:25,240 --> 00:35:28,260
misrepresentations by your ex -business
manager. Well, sue that motherfucker.

458
00:35:28,740 --> 00:35:32,000
And what about this IRS shit? Where'd I
stand on that?

459
00:35:32,580 --> 00:35:37,320
By the firm's calculations, you could
end up owing them $7 million in back

460
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,480
taxes. And that's just the feds. Then
there's the state.

461
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:42,540
Bottom line...

462
00:35:42,970 --> 00:35:45,670
We need to get your black ass out of
here and back in the ring.

463
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:08,740
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, the Bay
Area.

464
00:36:08,940 --> 00:36:13,640
That's round seven of the California
State Heavyweight Championship fight

465
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,720
from the Palmer Arena in downtown
Oakland.

466
00:36:17,860 --> 00:36:21,820
Challenger Monroe Hutchins undefeated
taking on state champ Butch Davis in

467
00:36:21,820 --> 00:36:23,720
so far has been a nearly even fight.

468
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:24,920
There's the bell.

469
00:36:25,420 --> 00:36:29,200
Davis has a bad cut about the left eye
and Monroe Hutchins looks like he wants

470
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:30,200
to do something about it.

471
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:33,560
It's on Monroe.

472
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:34,680
On Monroe.

473
00:36:54,910 --> 00:36:57,910
Your attorneys have come to me and asked
me to handle your response to the

474
00:36:57,910 --> 00:37:03,130
plaintiff's filing As you know you are
now facing a separate civil suit that

475
00:37:03,130 --> 00:37:05,950
well go to trial over the criminal
charges you've been convicted of.

476
00:37:06,330 --> 00:37:11,450
Briefly, that on March 17th, you and
four other men took six women via

477
00:37:11,450 --> 00:37:13,210
jet from Las Vegas to Los Angeles.

478
00:37:13,430 --> 00:37:14,430
Showgirls.

479
00:37:14,990 --> 00:37:18,610
At approximately 11 .30 p .m., you
checked into the penthouse suite of the

480
00:37:18,610 --> 00:37:19,610
Beverly Manor Hotel.

481
00:37:20,090 --> 00:37:23,270
Until that point of the evening, all
parties concede. But for minor

482
00:37:23,270 --> 00:37:26,790
discrepancies, the foregoing is true.
What happened next is in question. No,

483
00:37:26,790 --> 00:37:29,610
question. I ain't no punk -ass rapist.

484
00:37:31,010 --> 00:37:32,010
She wanted it.

485
00:37:32,370 --> 00:37:34,870
Look. None of this makes any difference
at this point.

486
00:37:35,090 --> 00:37:38,310
We're just trying to get an overview.
No, she didn't say no. She ain't say

487
00:37:38,370 --> 00:37:41,770
She didn't have a problem with any of
it. Yes, well, Miss Rollins effectively

488
00:37:41,770 --> 00:37:45,110
convinced the criminal trial jury that
she believed that you could break her in

489
00:37:45,110 --> 00:37:46,110
two with one arm.

490
00:37:46,590 --> 00:37:47,590
Yeah, uh -huh.

491
00:37:48,010 --> 00:37:51,470
Yeah, that's why she was making all them
happy sounds, because I was killing

492
00:37:51,470 --> 00:37:52,470
her, right?

493
00:37:53,890 --> 00:37:55,210
Some women like it rough.

494
00:37:57,730 --> 00:37:59,110
You know anything about that?

495
00:38:00,170 --> 00:38:01,590
That wasn't part of your testimony.

496
00:38:03,310 --> 00:38:05,810
A lawyer said don't sound like I'm
calling her a hoe.

497
00:38:06,210 --> 00:38:08,710
The prosecution pegged you as a bully.

498
00:38:09,450 --> 00:38:13,350
And she could explain it away easily
enough by saying that you mistook what

499
00:38:13,350 --> 00:38:14,830
in fact her cries for help.

500
00:38:15,210 --> 00:38:16,590
Or she was just in pain.

501
00:38:17,170 --> 00:38:18,950
I heard pain before.

502
00:38:20,010 --> 00:38:23,030
Believe me, she wasn't in no pain.

503
00:38:23,990 --> 00:38:25,630
She's asking $75 million.

504
00:38:26,650 --> 00:38:29,090
But I don't like negotiating this with
your appeal pending.

505
00:38:30,970 --> 00:38:37,690
No negotiating I ain't giving that bitch
shit And then when he finished

506
00:38:37,690 --> 00:38:44,630
he just put back on his pants and Went
back out into the party and left

507
00:38:44,630 --> 00:38:45,630
me alone

508
00:39:10,410 --> 00:39:12,490
Chap, I'm looking to be your friend,
chap.

509
00:39:14,370 --> 00:39:15,370
I'm a gift.

510
00:39:16,930 --> 00:39:18,590
Well, I don't need no gifts.

511
00:39:19,030 --> 00:39:20,030
Who sent you?

512
00:39:21,090 --> 00:39:22,090
Solid.

513
00:39:22,330 --> 00:39:23,390
You want to be your friend?

514
00:39:24,310 --> 00:39:27,090
He got to run things or else I seize
assassins.

515
00:39:27,810 --> 00:39:28,850
You can check it out.

516
00:39:30,060 --> 00:39:31,600
You're kind of pretty for a bitch.

517
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,060
But I don't want to owe nobody.

518
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:35,380
You tell them I said that.

519
00:39:36,540 --> 00:39:37,600
You get out of here.

520
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:40,860
You may be the champ, but you are only
one guy.

521
00:39:41,100 --> 00:39:42,280
Let me help you out.

522
00:39:43,460 --> 00:39:47,060
El, if I see the assassins give you
something, you take it.

523
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:48,580
You do not refuse.

524
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:05,160
I'm looking for Solid D.

525
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,900
Pleased to meet a man of your great
accomplishments.

526
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:14,160
You run shit here?

527
00:40:16,140 --> 00:40:17,400
Strength and unity, brother.

528
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,500
Here we need cooperation and
understanding.

529
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,820
We were at times discriminated against
even within these walls.

530
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,120
If you wish to come and join with us...

531
00:40:35,370 --> 00:40:41,110
Brother, if you don't join with us,
you'll be destroying the unity we

532
00:41:23,930 --> 00:41:25,250
Gordon wants to see you.

533
00:41:26,770 --> 00:41:28,370
That's quite a show you put on there.

534
00:41:29,290 --> 00:41:30,288
Come on.

535
00:41:30,290 --> 00:41:31,290
Let's go.

536
00:41:35,690 --> 00:41:36,690
I'm disappointed.

537
00:41:37,810 --> 00:41:39,070
Three incidents already.

538
00:41:39,470 --> 00:41:43,830
One a near riot, one an assault, and now
a physical confrontation that has sent

539
00:41:43,830 --> 00:41:45,770
five men to the hospital for medical
treatment.

540
00:41:46,230 --> 00:41:50,410
You've only been here ten weeks. It is
undeniable you are making a very poor

541
00:41:50,410 --> 00:41:54,470
record. The whole thing is they got to
respect you or you nothing.

542
00:41:55,330 --> 00:41:58,270
I believe that you're missing the point.
The warden is trying to explain the

543
00:41:58,270 --> 00:41:59,930
idea of acceptable behavior.

544
00:42:02,910 --> 00:42:05,290
I'm trying to explain to him how to
survive.

545
00:42:06,030 --> 00:42:08,790
I don't think there are too many inmates
here who could challenge you

546
00:42:08,790 --> 00:42:10,210
physically, Mr. Chambers.

547
00:42:12,070 --> 00:42:13,370
You really don't understand.

548
00:42:14,850 --> 00:42:17,970
When you're the champ, everybody wants a
piece of you.

549
00:42:19,490 --> 00:42:20,650
Everybody's testing you.

550
00:42:21,420 --> 00:42:25,180
My whole life, I got a problem, I take
care of it with these.

551
00:42:27,180 --> 00:42:28,900
People love a guy who can fight.

552
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:35,580
Money, pussy, kiss your ass, put you on
TV, put your picture in papers,

553
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:40,300
magazines, anything I want, because
people love a guy who can fight and

554
00:42:40,300 --> 00:42:41,300
take shit.

555
00:43:12,670 --> 00:43:13,670
Murder.

556
00:43:21,850 --> 00:43:22,430
Who

557
00:43:22,430 --> 00:43:30,270
I'm

558
00:43:30,270 --> 00:43:31,730
with is none of your business.

559
00:43:32,030 --> 00:43:33,030
None of my business.

560
00:43:41,900 --> 00:43:46,380
On the night of December the 1st, 1990,
you beat a man to death with your bare

561
00:43:46,380 --> 00:43:51,080
fists, which, because of your profession
and your training, are considered to be

562
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,060
lethal weapons in the state of
California.

563
00:43:53,940 --> 00:43:57,340
You have been found guilty by a jury of
your peers, and you are sentenced to

564
00:43:57,340 --> 00:44:00,180
life imprisonment without the
possibility of proof.

565
00:44:08,420 --> 00:44:09,660
Good morning, Mr. Epstein.

566
00:44:10,220 --> 00:44:11,058
How are you today?

567
00:44:11,060 --> 00:44:12,220
Don't give me no shit.

568
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:14,000
How the hell is the fight coming?

569
00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:15,840
What fight?

570
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:20,820
We got the heavyweight champion of the
world and an unbeaten prospect right

571
00:44:20,820 --> 00:44:24,100
in Sweetwater. Quit wasting time. Set
the fucking thing up.

572
00:44:24,420 --> 00:44:25,420
I know fights.

573
00:44:26,180 --> 00:44:27,200
Long fries.

574
00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:28,860
Monroe kicks his ass.

575
00:44:29,260 --> 00:44:30,760
We can make a lot of money.

576
00:44:33,240 --> 00:44:34,240
Mr. Ristine.

577
00:44:34,780 --> 00:44:39,600
Excuse me, but you're talking about the
real heavyweight champion of the world.

578
00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:41,660
Are you going to fix the fight?

579
00:44:41,900 --> 00:44:42,900
Shit, no.

580
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:48,560
Boxing. It's a matter of style. They all
can be beaten. Right time, right place,

581
00:44:48,620 --> 00:44:49,680
right circumstance.

582
00:44:50,580 --> 00:44:52,580
They all can be beaten.

583
00:44:55,540 --> 00:44:59,220
Mr. Ripstein wants to see the Iceman
fight a prisoner we got in here.

584
00:44:59,700 --> 00:45:01,360
His name is Monroe Hutchin.

585
00:45:02,180 --> 00:45:04,620
And a real goddamn fight, too.

586
00:45:05,460 --> 00:45:07,240
So, uh, what do you want us to do?

587
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:09,260
I talked to the head guard.

588
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:10,680
He's okay.

589
00:45:11,260 --> 00:45:12,660
But the warden's a problem.

590
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,080
Mr. Ripstein said you can take care of
him.

591
00:45:15,420 --> 00:45:17,060
You know the drill.

592
00:45:17,820 --> 00:45:21,300
You help him or you hurt him.

593
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,840
Now, about Monroe Hutchins.

594
00:45:27,359 --> 00:45:31,320
The warden thinks it's time to give him
a chance to rehabilitate himself by

595
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:32,840
socializing with the other prisoners.

596
00:45:33,060 --> 00:45:37,300
In six weeks, I'll be going on vacation
on the 50th. I'll be gone for two weeks,

597
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,760
first week in New Orleans, second week
visiting friends in Tucson, Arizona.

598
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:46,780
If while I am gone, if Mr. Hutchin
happens to get into a sparring match

599
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:48,960
Chambers, I don't want to hear about it.

600
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:53,160
And when I get back, I want this whole
goddamn enterprise finished.

601
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:56,680
Yes. Leaving no evidence, no videotape.

602
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:58,740
And never to be spoken of in my
presence.

603
00:45:59,100 --> 00:46:00,420
Anything else, sir? Hit the yard.

604
00:46:00,900 --> 00:46:01,900
Thank you.

605
00:46:04,620 --> 00:46:06,180
Had to open somebody in the governor's
office.

606
00:46:06,420 --> 00:46:09,060
As soon as he got the call, Mr. Backbone
started arranging his vacation.

607
00:46:09,500 --> 00:46:10,740
Well, you know what that means, don't
you?

608
00:46:11,100 --> 00:46:14,020
This whole load of shit's going to come
down on you and me. Oh, no. There is no

609
00:46:14,020 --> 00:46:16,800
you and me. I'm taking my vacation right
along with the work.

610
00:46:17,100 --> 00:46:19,780
Oh, well, thank you for your support.
Oh, come on.

611
00:46:20,380 --> 00:46:23,120
You run the fight program here. You want
it to happen.

612
00:46:38,700 --> 00:46:39,700
Here we go, Monroe.

613
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,220
Free at last, free at last.

614
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:45,880
I'm not going to Folsom.

615
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,940
What can I tell you? Looks like your
friend the warden wouldn't change his

616
00:46:50,660 --> 00:46:52,240
You get to stay home with us.

617
00:46:59,340 --> 00:47:01,980
Yeah, operator, a collect call to Yank
Lewis.

618
00:47:02,860 --> 00:47:04,560
No, Yank Lewis.

619
00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,360
Yeah, from George Chambers, the Iceman.

620
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:11,800
Yang.

621
00:47:12,420 --> 00:47:14,560
Yeah, man, it's me. Who the hell you
think it is?

622
00:47:16,100 --> 00:47:18,080
Now, get your ass up here and share the
beauty.

623
00:47:19,380 --> 00:47:21,380
Maybe I got to tip it back on the gravy
train.

624
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,500
What? What are you talking about?
Remember your old buddy from Miami?

625
00:47:25,260 --> 00:47:26,198
Mindy Ripstein?

626
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:27,200
Yeah.

627
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:31,620
This boy came up to me and said that if
I fight some punk in here, he can maybe

628
00:47:31,620 --> 00:47:32,620
get me out quick.

629
00:47:35,180 --> 00:47:37,640
Mendy Ripstein says it, then it's the
real deal.

630
00:47:38,500 --> 00:47:40,580
But, oh, you can't hear this from some
other guy.

631
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:42,860
You got to hear this from Mendy himself.

632
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:44,500
Then it's dope for sure.

633
00:47:44,940 --> 00:47:48,360
If it's on the real, I'll whip on this
punk's ass and be out of here.

634
00:47:49,140 --> 00:47:50,140
Who's the punk?

635
00:47:51,060 --> 00:47:52,480
Don't tell me Monroe Hutchins.

636
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:56,360
He fought out of Oakland. He was
undefeated.

637
00:47:57,500 --> 00:47:59,880
He was a real prospect, man. He's a full
load.

638
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,040
Well, even if he was something once,
he'd been here for ten years.

639
00:48:03,580 --> 00:48:06,480
I'm just saying it might not be a walk
in the park is all.

640
00:48:06,860 --> 00:48:08,140
I don't believe this shit.

641
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,680
What? You're worried about me being out
of shape. I've been in here for four

642
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,660
months. That chump been in here for ten
years. You too much, man.

643
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:16,180
What? That's a concern.

644
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:17,800
Now get the fuck out of here.

645
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,020
Yes, I want you to fight him.

646
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:27,680
In the cage, no gloves, bare -fisted,
and a finish.

647
00:48:28,460 --> 00:48:32,340
I make a couple of calls. I put down
some money. There's some people on the

648
00:48:32,340 --> 00:48:33,740
outside that know you.

649
00:48:34,240 --> 00:48:38,060
Everybody knows him. We'll get maybe 20,
30 to 1 odds.

650
00:48:38,460 --> 00:48:41,480
It's easy to spread around, maybe 200
,000.

651
00:48:41,740 --> 00:48:46,040
You win, that's 4 million bucks, maybe
more.

652
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,160
And I think you can win.

653
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:56,360
Who's in it for me?

654
00:48:56,940 --> 00:48:58,480
Mr. Rifstein uses his influence.

655
00:48:59,060 --> 00:49:00,480
He stay out of solitary.

656
00:49:00,820 --> 00:49:02,460
Get the privileges you've been missing.

657
00:49:03,540 --> 00:49:04,540
Privileges.

658
00:49:07,100 --> 00:49:08,340
Offer me half the profit.

659
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:13,160
Oh, I don't think so. I'm putting up all
the dough on a real long shot.

660
00:49:13,940 --> 00:49:15,300
I'm taking all the risk.

661
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,860
What are you worried about money for?
What are you going to buy in here?

662
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:20,580
You in here, too.

663
00:49:22,620 --> 00:49:23,940
Probably going to die in here.

664
00:49:24,900 --> 00:49:26,240
But the money matter to you.

665
00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:32,960
You're going to get 10%. I know that
fighters usually get 50 % minimum on the

666
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:33,960
outside.

667
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:36,940
Yeah, but we're not outside.

668
00:49:38,020 --> 00:49:39,020
I want more.

669
00:49:41,340 --> 00:49:45,440
I got a sister. She got three kids. No
job, no skills, no husband.

670
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:48,740
Government gives her a check once a
month.

671
00:49:49,900 --> 00:49:51,120
I can send her the money.

672
00:49:52,380 --> 00:49:56,060
You're going to get 30 % of everything
we win.

673
00:49:57,450 --> 00:49:58,450
It's a deal.

674
00:49:59,090 --> 00:50:00,090
Forty percent.

675
00:50:01,490 --> 00:50:02,490
That's it.

676
00:50:10,010 --> 00:50:10,490
You

677
00:50:10,490 --> 00:50:19,030
wanted

678
00:50:19,030 --> 00:50:20,030
to see the Iceman?

679
00:50:21,110 --> 00:50:23,710
Mr. Ripstein thanks you for bringing him
to this neutral location.

680
00:50:28,970 --> 00:50:31,210
The Iceman doesn't want any
disappointments.

681
00:50:31,630 --> 00:50:33,290
He expects to negotiate.

682
00:50:35,750 --> 00:50:40,370
Well, you have to understand that Mr.
Ripstein is a great boxing enthusiast, a

683
00:50:40,370 --> 00:50:44,230
great student of the art, a great
historian of the prize ring.

684
00:50:44,910 --> 00:50:50,050
Mr. Ripstein believes the truest, purest
expression of the sport was the bare

685
00:50:50,050 --> 00:50:55,290
-knuckle fights of the 19th century, the
Queensberry Rules. No, no, no, the

686
00:50:55,290 --> 00:50:56,810
London Prize Ring Rules.

687
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:01,560
Queensberry changed the rules to the
ones that we got now.

688
00:51:02,240 --> 00:51:03,940
Look, let's cut through all this
bullshit.

689
00:51:04,740 --> 00:51:07,800
I want out, otherwise no fight. Now how
you gonna pull it off?

690
00:51:09,980 --> 00:51:12,100
We handled that through the Department
of Corrections.

691
00:51:12,500 --> 00:51:13,720
We got a guy on the committee.

692
00:51:17,660 --> 00:51:18,960
You got your word on this?

693
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:22,940
You better get ready to fight.

694
00:51:24,180 --> 00:51:28,620
Train all day. You know I gotta feel the
pain all day. Work hard even if it rain

695
00:51:28,620 --> 00:51:29,379
on me.

696
00:51:29,380 --> 00:51:32,820
Nothing less than five miles in the
morning. I'm jogging and yawning. Stick

697
00:51:32,820 --> 00:51:33,980
move. One,

698
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,100
two. Cut off the ring now. What you
gonna do?

699
00:51:37,420 --> 00:51:38,780
Show you when I get close.

700
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:45,780
Take money on the books. You seen the
fight. Take scene. Watch your gear. I

701
00:51:45,780 --> 00:51:49,100
position. The jab keep you at the
perfect distance and it can be done.

702
00:51:52,279 --> 00:51:53,800
Fight is six weeks from tomorrow night.

703
00:51:54,100 --> 00:51:56,440
Y 'all got that amount of time to get
your fighters in shape.

704
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:57,960
These are the rules.

705
00:51:58,700 --> 00:52:01,020
Mr. Epstein has gone through a lot of
trouble putting them together.

706
00:52:02,140 --> 00:52:04,060
What about a foul? Who's going to ref
this thing?

707
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:05,800
There isn't any referee.

708
00:52:06,100 --> 00:52:07,100
That's one of the rules.

709
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:08,920
What kind of shit is this, huh?

710
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,260
Mr. Merker can judge fouls from outside
the cage.

711
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:16,100
Kicking, butting, low blows. If you win
or lose on a foul, all deals are off.

712
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,280
It's a bunch of crap, okay? My guy's got
a lot more to lose than this other

713
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:20,280
chump.

714
00:52:21,210 --> 00:52:22,290
No way to train properly.

715
00:52:23,190 --> 00:52:25,570
Plus there's no gloves and these dumbass
rules.

716
00:52:26,370 --> 00:52:28,750
The truth is we don't know shit about
fighting this way.

717
00:52:29,650 --> 00:52:30,710
And that makes you even.

718
00:53:28,629 --> 00:53:32,070
I don't want to cause no trouble. I
wanted to talk to you about the rules,

719
00:53:32,070 --> 00:53:33,070
know?

720
00:53:33,150 --> 00:53:34,150
Actually, about the gloves.

721
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,220
There aren't any gloves. It says so on
page three of the rules.

722
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,540
Yeah, I know, but it'll make for a dull
fight, you know?

723
00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:43,220
I mean, bare knuckles, nobody throws a
lot.

724
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:48,540
If you watch those old films, Jack
Johnson, Jeffries, Corbett, I mean,

725
00:53:48,540 --> 00:53:50,700
guys trained in bare knuckle style, you
know?

726
00:53:51,620 --> 00:53:53,840
It was like a newsflash when somebody
threw a punch.

727
00:53:54,060 --> 00:53:57,400
I just want to make it clear that I
agree. But my boy, he don't give a shit.

728
00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:01,000
Gloves, no gloves, it don't matter.
Bring them on. We ain't backing up for

729
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,220
nobody. Jam, baby, that's right, jam.

730
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:05,740
be a lot more hitting with gloves.

731
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:09,680
I gave you a copy of the London price by
rules that Mr. Epstein typed out and it

732
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:10,780
says no gloves.

733
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:12,000
No.

734
00:54:12,380 --> 00:54:13,380
Wait a minute.

735
00:54:14,060 --> 00:54:15,060
He's right.

736
00:54:15,660 --> 00:54:18,340
It's a better fight with six ounce
gloves.

737
00:54:18,740 --> 00:54:19,740
Get him.

738
00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:49,700
Monroe! How you doing, brother?

739
00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:57,280
First there's a smile, then comes a
cheap shot, huh?

740
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:02,180
I guess nobody's dumb enough to ball for
that twice, huh?

741
00:55:02,780 --> 00:55:03,780
Well, you got that right.

742
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:07,800
Mr. Iceman, you can call me champ.

743
00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:09,720
Now, see, you've been told.

744
00:55:10,700 --> 00:55:13,200
In here, I'm the champ.

745
00:55:15,340 --> 00:55:17,840
Oh, you believe that? You must believe
in me too, Farron.

746
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:19,880
Nobody's backing up.

747
00:55:26,380 --> 00:55:28,900
When you hold on, brother, we're going
to get you a chance.

748
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:39,800
Good evening, I'm Maureen O 'Boyle.
Tonight on CNOX's The Inside Story,

749
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:44,240
talking with Tawny Rollins in an
exclusive interview that will be her

750
00:55:44,240 --> 00:55:49,280
public statement since the sensational
trial and conviction of George Iceman

751
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:53,660
Chambers, former heavyweight champion of
the world. Thanks for being with us,

752
00:55:53,700 --> 00:55:54,700
Tawny.

753
00:55:55,100 --> 00:55:57,060
I was scared.

754
00:55:58,160 --> 00:55:59,860
I didn't want to be there anymore.

755
00:56:05,610 --> 00:56:09,190
I didn't want to do nothing with him,
but he wouldn't stop.

756
00:56:10,650 --> 00:56:12,530
This whole thing is just such a mess.

757
00:56:13,810 --> 00:56:17,810
I've been out of work since this whole
thing happened, and I had to have lots

758
00:56:17,810 --> 00:56:21,910
doctors and lawyers, and I got stacks of
mail from people saying that they hate

759
00:56:21,910 --> 00:56:25,490
me because I took away their heavyweight
champ and that I'm a gold digger and

760
00:56:25,490 --> 00:56:27,930
all that, but I say walk a mile in my
shoes.

761
00:56:28,710 --> 00:56:32,550
I did not want to cause him any harm,
but he wouldn't listen to me, and he

762
00:56:32,550 --> 00:56:33,550
wouldn't stop.

763
00:56:40,810 --> 00:56:42,830
He's just been watching me over prison.

764
00:57:05,310 --> 00:57:08,110
Get on the horn and get me a situator
right in here.

765
00:57:10,250 --> 00:57:11,870
Central Security, this is the missile.

766
00:57:12,210 --> 00:57:13,490
You're in a situation of red.

767
00:57:13,730 --> 00:57:15,690
A situation of red.

768
00:57:22,290 --> 00:57:23,290
Batman.

769
00:57:31,270 --> 00:57:32,270
Batman.

770
00:57:32,810 --> 00:57:37,070
Before you came here, we all figured you
were some kind of dude.

771
00:57:38,130 --> 00:57:39,430
Then you show up.

772
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,500
acting like you're the god and we're the
sign.

773
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:46,600
Well, hey, man, every dog in here wants
to see you get your ass kicked.

774
00:57:46,860 --> 00:57:48,180
You're going down, man.

775
00:58:52,810 --> 00:58:56,410
Who the fuck does this fucking warden
fucker think he is?

776
00:58:56,870 --> 00:59:00,330
Doesn't anybody know how to do business
in this fucking state?

777
00:59:00,690 --> 00:59:04,510
My fucking wife and her fucking asthma
and allergies.

778
00:59:04,810 --> 00:59:07,250
We ought to move to the fucking desert.

779
00:59:07,830 --> 00:59:12,050
Goddamn fucking chickens and donkeys. I
should have known better than listen to

780
00:59:12,050 --> 00:59:13,050
those shitheels.

781
00:59:13,350 --> 00:59:14,990
Fucking Palm Springs.

782
00:59:15,570 --> 00:59:20,650
Lay there in the fucking sun and do
nothing. Then this fucking state grabs

783
00:59:20,650 --> 00:59:25,740
ass for time. Why the fuck I didn't stay
in fucking Florida where people know

784
00:59:25,740 --> 00:59:27,180
how to do fucking business?

785
00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:31,280
Fucking wife and her fucking asthma.

786
00:59:34,260 --> 00:59:35,260
Shit.

787
00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:38,680
Something needs to get fucking done.

788
00:59:39,820 --> 00:59:41,620
I got to do it myself.

789
00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:46,160
Call the fucking warden.

790
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:48,460
I want to meet him.

791
00:59:50,910 --> 00:59:52,030
Yes, sir, Mr. Estienne.

792
01:00:07,790 --> 01:00:10,730
I don't make it a habit of meeting with
prisoners. I'm doing this out of

793
01:00:10,730 --> 01:00:13,230
deference to Mr. Merker here, who
thought it would be a good idea.

794
01:00:14,350 --> 01:00:18,530
However, any attempt to have me
reinstate the fight between Mr. Chambers

795
01:00:18,530 --> 01:00:20,070
Monroe Hutchins will be futile.

796
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:22,580
It has been irrevocably canceled.

797
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:24,660
Can I tell you a story?

798
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:29,080
One of my favorites. It's about how
things get done.

799
01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:34,760
This is a story that takes place in
Havana. It must have been the middle

800
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:37,540
I was second in charge of certain
operations.

801
01:00:38,740 --> 01:00:40,060
Second to a Mr.

802
01:00:40,260 --> 01:00:41,340
Meyer Lansky.

803
01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:44,280
There was this casino.

804
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:49,020
A new one that had been built in a
neighboring town.

805
01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:56,190
But... The mayor, he wanted to close
that casino because

806
01:00:56,190 --> 01:00:58,710
he did not like gambling.

807
01:00:59,590 --> 01:01:03,310
He thought it brought the wrong kind of
people.

808
01:01:03,730 --> 01:01:05,970
So he ordered the casino closed.

809
01:01:07,030 --> 01:01:11,650
I had to report this to Mr. Lansky.

810
01:01:12,230 --> 01:01:17,150
So Mr. Lansky, he told me, he says, you
tell that mayor.

811
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:24,720
That the casino stays open, no question,
but that the mayor had a choice.

812
01:01:26,220 --> 01:01:33,060
He could choose to be killed, or he
could choose to have a great

813
01:01:33,060 --> 01:01:38,360
deal of money deposited in his bank
account. It was his choice.

814
01:01:40,060 --> 01:01:45,680
In either case, the casino stays open.

815
01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:48,620
What happened to the mayor?

816
01:01:49,020 --> 01:01:50,020
He died.

817
01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:55,660
He hit his ignition and his car had
exploded like a fireball.

818
01:01:58,860 --> 01:02:01,180
You're just going to stand there and let
this little one threaten me?

819
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:05,320
Well, sir, I don't much want my car to
blow up.

820
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:10,740
We could talk about the money when you
come back from your vacation.

821
01:02:11,060 --> 01:02:12,780
I understand you're leaving tomorrow.

822
01:02:14,380 --> 01:02:19,160
All of us, we hope you and your family
have a very pleasant time.

823
01:02:44,810 --> 01:02:47,010
We're gonna limo over a few guys from
Vegas.

824
01:02:47,470 --> 01:02:48,470
Act as witnesses.

825
01:02:49,790 --> 01:02:51,550
Chewie, we've been talking.

826
01:02:52,530 --> 01:02:53,930
We need you to go to the Iceman.

827
01:02:54,810 --> 01:02:55,810
Get a number.

828
01:02:55,930 --> 01:02:57,490
We're getting a hell of a price on
Monroe.

829
01:02:58,170 --> 01:02:59,810
We need the Iceman to go for it.

830
01:03:00,550 --> 01:03:02,030
Ask him to lie down for some guy?

831
01:03:02,550 --> 01:03:03,550
I don't see it.

832
01:03:03,910 --> 01:03:04,910
Offer him a million.

833
01:03:05,250 --> 01:03:07,590
He made 25 million the last time he
fought somebody.

834
01:03:08,030 --> 01:03:09,970
We gotta fight for that one. Talk to
him.

835
01:03:10,590 --> 01:03:11,590
You got it wrong.

836
01:03:12,030 --> 01:03:13,530
You hired me to look after Mendy.

837
01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:15,460
I'm looking after him right now.

838
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:17,600
Mendy wants a straight fight. It's not
the money.

839
01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:23,200
Bullshit. In New York, in Cuba, in
Florida. His whole life, it's always

840
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:24,200
the money.

841
01:03:24,300 --> 01:03:26,740
He's got it stashed all over the place.
Fucking millions.

842
01:03:27,740 --> 01:03:29,520
He's got every fucking nickel he ever
made.

843
01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:32,080
With Mendy, it's always about the money.

844
01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:35,600
You guys are way off Mendy's radar on
this deal. And I don't want to mess it

845
01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:36,178
for him.

846
01:03:36,180 --> 01:03:38,400
Mendy wants a straight fight to the
finish, and that's it.

847
01:03:39,220 --> 01:03:41,420
You want the Iceman to dump? You go talk
to him.

848
01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:43,320
Don't get your hopes up.

849
01:03:50,350 --> 01:03:52,330
Now that this thing is back on, here's
the deal.

850
01:03:53,050 --> 01:03:56,490
We got a guy in the dispensary who's
gonna steal five or ten volumes.

851
01:03:57,090 --> 01:03:58,090
Crush him up.

852
01:03:58,870 --> 01:04:00,530
And I got another guy in the commissary.

853
01:04:01,430 --> 01:04:04,130
Last meal Iceman needs before he fights.
Mix it in.

854
01:04:04,910 --> 01:04:06,150
Just enough to slow him down.

855
01:04:06,810 --> 01:04:07,810
Fuck him up.

856
01:04:08,690 --> 01:04:09,690
He'll still fight.

857
01:04:10,970 --> 01:04:12,130
But it won't be the same.

858
01:04:12,810 --> 01:04:14,470
That'll be just enough to give you the
edge.

859
01:04:15,510 --> 01:04:16,510
Got it?

860
01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:19,860
You do that, I'm going to break you up
into pieces.

861
01:04:22,180 --> 01:04:24,580
I can take this guy, and I don't need no
help.

862
01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:27,840
You understand that?

863
01:04:28,740 --> 01:04:32,100
Hey, we're just trying to give you a
little something extra, man.

864
01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:34,200
We got a lot of money on this table.

865
01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:44,460
I may not be a real good guy.

866
01:04:45,740 --> 01:04:47,500
But I ain't no chicken shit either.

867
01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:50,720
Remember that.

868
01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:54,720
Take a bow.

869
01:05:31,690 --> 01:05:32,830
We've got ourselves 90 minutes.

870
01:05:33,770 --> 01:05:35,650
We just concentrate.

871
01:05:35,990 --> 01:05:37,030
We focus.

872
01:05:37,390 --> 01:05:40,390
We mentally imagine ourselves winning.

873
01:05:40,970 --> 01:05:42,550
Just close your eyes.

874
01:05:43,890 --> 01:05:45,110
We concentrate.

875
01:05:45,870 --> 01:05:47,570
We see ourselves winning.

876
01:05:48,430 --> 01:05:50,530
We see Iceman, oh, shit.

877
01:05:51,370 --> 01:05:53,130
We see ourselves winning.

878
01:05:57,770 --> 01:06:01,130
20 minutes, we've got to loosen up.
Okay? Break a sweat.

879
01:06:02,220 --> 01:06:03,920
We don't want the shithead to catch you
cold.

880
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:08,180
Hey, sloppy, that's where mistakes
happen.

881
01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:21,680
All right, cell blocks A, B, C, and D,
if all y 'all are ready over there,

882
01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:23,840
start moving them in on 15 -minute
intervals.

883
01:06:45,840 --> 01:06:47,660
Shit, Iceman, shit, shit.

884
01:06:50,180 --> 01:06:53,140
That's, that's, that's what we go for.

885
01:07:53,260 --> 01:07:54,700
Your rhythm. Your heartbeat.

886
01:07:55,320 --> 01:08:01,240
Listen. He is a guest. This is your
house. He is an unwelcome guest.

887
01:09:49,229 --> 01:09:54,069
before around here. London Prize rules.
No traditional rounds to speak of. No

888
01:09:54,069 --> 01:09:55,370
regulation -sized gloves.

889
01:09:55,610 --> 01:09:59,790
Just those bitty six -ounce suckers.
Don't tear up. A fighter steps from the

890
01:09:59,790 --> 01:10:04,330
mark ready to fight. He go down, then he
got 60 seconds to come back. That's it.

891
01:10:04,470 --> 01:10:09,770
Fight to the finish. No ref. Only got us
a timekeeper for the mark. Our very own

892
01:10:09,770 --> 01:10:11,570
Mr. Murka, the walking mark.

893
01:11:01,260 --> 01:11:04,940
And for the great Monroe Huston, feel
the best judgment. And don't do nothing

894
01:11:04,940 --> 01:11:08,900
stupid. Now to forfeit all the money
that you got, bet it those big odds.

895
01:11:09,140 --> 01:11:13,400
And welcome to our amigos from Las
Vegas. Here to witness this contest and

896
01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:16,960
report it to various cities all around
our great country. Whole lot of

897
01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:18,920
bookmakers out there want to know what's
coming down.

898
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:23,640
Well, it's us against the world, my
brother. And just like you, I too am for

899
01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:28,220
great Monroe Huston. He brought honor to
our house of pain. But I will call a

900
01:11:28,220 --> 01:11:29,220
neutral fight.

901
01:11:29,360 --> 01:11:30,560
Come on, bitch. Come on.

902
01:11:30,970 --> 01:11:33,450
This is a fight for what's right. This
is a brawl for...

903
01:12:27,500 --> 01:12:28,500
with the Iceman.

904
01:14:56,010 --> 01:14:58,270
He's never had to face anything like
this.

905
01:17:01,580 --> 01:17:03,160
man is one cocky son of a bitch.

906
01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:07,660
He's already knocked him down twice. I
don't know how much longer this is going

907
01:17:07,660 --> 01:17:08,299
to go.

908
01:17:08,300 --> 01:17:11,720
You got to fight your fight. You got to
fight his fight. You control the rhythm.

909
01:17:12,100 --> 01:17:13,680
You got to turn this fight around.

910
01:17:14,040 --> 01:17:15,040
You can do it, Monroe.

911
01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:17,660
Come on now. This is your round.

912
01:17:18,020 --> 01:17:19,800
Look, it's supremely confident.

913
01:17:20,180 --> 01:17:22,480
He's got it all going his way. Round
three.

914
01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:30,860
They come out, and it seems like the
Iceman is just trying to find that one.

915
01:17:30,860 --> 01:17:34,320
big shot, that'll put Monroe on his ass
and give him a one way ticket to

916
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:35,320
bootyville.

917
01:18:02,750 --> 01:18:03,750
That's right.

918
01:18:03,930 --> 01:18:07,410
Dice, man, is clearly in control of this
fight. But Monroe is still there, baby.

919
01:18:07,650 --> 01:18:09,470
Our favorite son is still standing.

920
01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:29,700
Say what you want to say about it.

921
01:23:37,520 --> 01:23:42,700
Two guys fighting to the finish, but
just one guy wins because he's the

922
01:23:42,700 --> 01:23:45,660
man. And that's what the goddamn sport
is about.

923
01:23:56,700 --> 01:23:59,360
Mendy Ripstein died three weeks after
the big fight.

924
01:24:00,140 --> 01:24:01,280
He kept his word.

925
01:24:01,800 --> 01:24:04,720
Monroe got his money and the Iceman got
out on special parole.

926
01:24:05,550 --> 01:24:08,230
I can personally thank Mr. Epstein for
another thing.

927
01:24:09,230 --> 01:24:11,250
His lawyers contacted my family.

928
01:24:12,050 --> 01:24:14,430
He left me two million dollars free and
clear.

929
01:24:15,330 --> 01:24:18,310
So I guess I'm not going to have any
excuses when I get out of here.

930
01:24:20,070 --> 01:24:23,990
I read in the sports page that Iceman
and his manager both denied the fight

931
01:24:23,990 --> 01:24:24,990
Monroe ever happened.

932
01:24:25,450 --> 01:24:28,210
And the story about him losing was only
a big rumor.

933
01:24:28,890 --> 01:24:29,930
A fairy tale.

934
01:24:30,810 --> 01:24:32,410
Once upon a time in prison.

935
01:24:39,180 --> 01:24:42,000
of experts have the fight even at two
rounds apiece.

936
01:24:42,300 --> 01:24:46,600
Both fighters fighting for the
heavyweight championship of the world,

937
01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:48,460
greatest title in all of sports.

938
01:24:49,220 --> 01:24:53,940
One thing I can tell you for sure, life
in prison hasn't changed the Iceman's

939
01:24:53,940 --> 01:24:54,940
fighting style.

940
01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:57,380
Both fighters feeling each other out.

941
01:27:28,280 --> 01:27:29,900
And I'm Holly Grove Park.

942
01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:33,320
The hood made me thrill. The hottest hot
boy, baby, time revealed.

943
01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:37,820
And I'm mama's oldest boy. Papa's
thirsty, but papa's not real. He don't

944
01:27:37,820 --> 01:27:42,340
what I believe. I'm 19 strong, a kid
with a kid. And ain't too many people

945
01:27:42,340 --> 01:27:47,040
there what I did. I rock bricks down. I
rock and pound. I pump the best throw,

946
01:27:47,140 --> 01:27:50,460
pound for pound. Now stay round. The
boy's tough, not bluff.

947
01:27:50,940 --> 01:27:52,940
Cheesy, wheezy, young money squad up.

948
01:27:53,200 --> 01:27:57,260
Whoever don't like it, mount up and down
you go. I've been a champ like a dual

949
01:27:57,260 --> 01:28:01,240
Monroe. Not in 10 years, they still
wouldn't have planned it. But everyone

950
01:28:01,240 --> 01:28:02,760
fall and I'm still be standing.

951
01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:07,200
We've been through too much pain, too
much struggle, and too much strain. This

952
01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:11,580
is CMR. So to make us try to lock us in,
we got to lock on the block to the pit.

953
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:12,820
We again lose.

954
01:28:13,040 --> 01:28:16,900
We've been through too much pain, too
much struggle, and too much strain. This

955
01:28:16,900 --> 01:28:17,900
is CMR.

956
01:28:17,950 --> 01:28:21,190
So the niggas try to lock us in. We got
it locked from the block to the shed.

957
01:28:21,530 --> 01:28:25,810
I'm the Iceman, whoa, it's nothing to
ask you. I'll put the G on the head and

958
01:28:25,810 --> 01:28:29,030
got to say it out the mouth. With the
beanie, with the blue jean jacket, metal

959
01:28:29,030 --> 01:28:31,910
pack. Walking up that walk and I'm about
that jacking.

960
01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:36,000
I do this for the penitentiary. Holla,
I'm stunned for y 'all while I'm

961
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:37,000
these dollars.

962
01:28:37,040 --> 01:28:41,260
I lock cells like four corner blocks.
I'm the bird man. I never chipped off

963
01:28:41,260 --> 01:28:45,440
top. I'm switch hand. When I'm swinging,
I'm landing. I thug on the street and I

964
01:28:45,440 --> 01:28:49,720
thug red bandit. Wipe off the land. It's
a concrete jungle. A till full of

965
01:28:49,720 --> 01:28:51,300
gangsters, OZs, and bundles.

966
01:28:51,540 --> 01:28:55,240
The till drops for the clowns I put
under. You know I've been living like

967
01:28:55,240 --> 01:28:59,160
for ten summers. I'm the boss of the
ghetto. Black pro of the game. Third

968
01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:00,900
survivor and a damn dang chain.

969
01:29:01,300 --> 01:29:05,060
Blues, we've been through too much pain,
too much struggle, and too much strain.

970
01:29:05,160 --> 01:29:09,400
This is CMR, so the men is trying to
lock us in. We got it locked from the

971
01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:13,500
to the pen. We are damned. Blues, we've
been through too much pain, too much

972
01:29:13,500 --> 01:29:17,780
struggle, and too much strain. This is
CMR, so the men is trying to lock us in.

973
01:29:17,820 --> 01:29:19,620
We got it locked from the block to the
pen.

974
01:29:20,280 --> 01:29:21,700
Undisputed. Say, whoa, look.

975
01:29:22,060 --> 01:29:24,840
Check this out. They about to cut the
lights off, right?

976
01:29:25,460 --> 01:29:27,180
Simmons and Melton and a joke.

977
01:29:27,460 --> 01:29:28,460
Why you at it?

978
01:29:28,510 --> 01:29:32,070
Sitting there whipped down your wick.
Boy, I done sing for you, so it's best

979
01:29:32,070 --> 01:29:34,950
come. I'm Max Saladin, the dog of the
prison.

980
01:29:35,310 --> 01:29:39,450
I'm the next best thing to the warden.
Plus, I'm charging two bits on the

981
01:29:39,450 --> 01:29:44,670
carton. I thin work for old blister with
no filter. The BGF, they'll show and

982
01:29:44,670 --> 01:29:49,210
get you. I walk with my pants sagging.
I'm a HBG for life. Now, what's

983
01:29:49,210 --> 01:29:52,750
happening? Please, what you talking? I'm
the dead man walking. If we was on the

984
01:29:52,750 --> 01:29:56,070
streets, then a 4 -4 would be born. Keep
the shank on the left side of the tits

985
01:29:56,070 --> 01:29:56,728
right here.

986
01:29:56,730 --> 01:30:00,190
I'm the greasy Attaboozy that's running
a tip with the black gorillas.

987
01:30:00,410 --> 01:30:04,570
Petty Hustlers, Nessie, Fridonis on a
Sam, Aryan Nation, and OJ. Now how you

988
01:30:04,570 --> 01:30:07,410
gonna stop them, throw away the key, and
lock them? Tell the D .A. it's them

989
01:30:07,410 --> 01:30:09,110
against me. We can't lose.

990
01:30:09,570 --> 01:30:13,390
We've been through too much pain, too
much struggle, and too much strain. This

991
01:30:13,390 --> 01:30:17,590
is CMR. So the niggas try to lock us in.
We got it locked from the block to the

992
01:30:17,590 --> 01:30:19,110
pit. We untame. We lose.

993
01:30:19,310 --> 01:30:23,090
We've been through too much pain, too
much struggle, and too much strain. This

994
01:30:23,090 --> 01:30:27,270
is CMR. So the niggas try to lock us in.
We got it locked from the block to the

995
01:30:27,270 --> 01:30:28,590
pit. Undisputed.
