♪♪

The main event will feature

former light heavyweight contender Danny "Boy" Jackson

against the brash current champion Alonzo Medina.

Boxing fans will remember Jackson

as the champion that never was.

He spent an unprecedented nine years

in the world's elite top ten, but was never given

a title shot and came to be known as the most popular

non-champion in the history of the sport.

Alonzo Medina, on the other hand,

is young, brash, and exciting.

He's defended his title seven times,

with all wins coming by knockout.

Jackson was reported Monday as saying

he's a child with a child's talent and a child's mind.

No love lost between these two fighters

but the true love lies in the event itself.

All proceeds will go to La Oportunidad,

whose mission is to forge a new and improved alliance

between the Hispanic community and otherwise

to promulgate education, the development

of vocational skills among whites, blacks, and Hispanics,

and to furnish legal support and understanding

to the families of immigrants

who find themselves here illegally.

Reginald Sterling and his nonprofit team

at La Oportunidad has brought national attention

to the plight of the immigrant

through events such as these.

I spoke to Mr. Sterling yesterday about

this fundraising event and the organization in general.

Well, Gina, we're just so proud to be here

promoting this event.

Raising countless dollars for a worthy cause.

And both fighters have generously waived

their salaries so they'll be fighting for honor alone.

Honor for themselves and their competitive spirits,

and of course our great cause here at La Oportunidad.

We're from Dallas.

Ooh.

You here for the fight?

I guess you could say that.

You know I hear Medina is very, how you say,

is sleek, but I hear also Danny Jackson used to be good,

but now he's muy viejo, he's very old.

Yeah he's getting up there.

All right, Mr.Danson,

Mr. Jackie Danson, welcome.

Here you go. Numero doce.

Number 12 on the end.

Oh, jeez, don't wish that on him.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

They gave me 20 grand for training expenses.

I want you to put 10 of it on me.

Danny, keep the money.

You ain't gonna win this fight.

Look, Fred, it's worth a gamble, okay?

I'm an eight-to-one underdog.

The bets only open for a knockout.

Baby, if you're gonna bet, bet the other way.

Bullshit, you know Medina can't knock me out.

And I got the power.

Danny, Danny, Danny,

you're an old man in this game.

Medina's young.

Power only works if you can actually hit the other guy.

I was against you from taking this fight, ese.

Look, Freddy...

I need the money, okay?

I'm behind on child support payments,

and they're gonna kick me out of my apartment.

Dano, you made millions in the ring.

What happened?

You know, Freddy,

time goes by

and good things don't happen.

Keep the money, Danny.

All right, son, you did good.

Made me proud.

Hey, hey.

We cool, hermano?

Yes, yes, Freddy, of course we're cool.

But you know I'm gonna kick his ass, right?

Trust me, Danny, my fondest wish.

- Dad? - Yeah?

What are they doing?

Oh, they're just showing their faith, son.

What's faith?

Faith is like believing with all your heart

in something that you really can't see.

So say some.

Don't you believe, Danny Boy?

Freddy, you know what I see?

I see a woman whose country doesn't care about her.

That's what I see.

A woman who works maybe 12, 16 hours a day

in constant fear of being deported.

Probably doesn't even speak English

and shares a house with three other families,

in constant fear of how she's gonna feed her kids.

That's what I see.

So you tell me what faith has gotten her.

Not much, but it's all she has.

See you tomorrow morning, my man.

Yeah.

Let's go.

Dad?

Yeah.

Why are we staying here?

I thought you said they were putting us up at the Hilton?

Oh, well, it's safer here.

How?

Well, even though they're billing this fight

as an exhibition, bookies are still

taking odds on a knockout.

So whenever bookies are involved,

well, things can happen.

You mean they may try to hurt you?

[sighs]

Well, they could put something in the water,

something in the food, something to weaken me,

anything is possible.

Is that the reason you registered in a different name?

Yeah, cool.

He's 14.

He probably just took a walk, stepped out for a while.

No, not my boy.

Well, how do you know that?

Because I told him not to.

With all due respect, Mr. Jackson,

did you not ever disobey your father,

especially at that age?

Look, I left the room, I came back, it was trashed.

My son is gone. Will you help me?

Of course.

Why don't you just go back to the motel?

All right, relax.

I'm sure he's back by now.

And then if he's not, then you can file

a missing person's report, all right?

out in the desert about an hour away.

La Oportunidad owns it.

Western town?

Yeah, you know where they shoot the movie,

but it's been deserted for years.

- Hey, hey! - Shh, shh.

Just in case you were wondering,

we're doing fine.

Hey, that's Jamie's way

of telling us that he's okay.

Turn it around, Amigo.

We got to get to La Viuda Loca.

[speaking Spanish]

This is Captain Garza.

I want an APB issued right away for Freddy Rivera,

the boxing trainer.

He's probably traveling with Danny Jackson.

10-4, dispatch to all units.

We have an APB for Freddy Rivera, a male, Hispanic.

You've been drinking, haven't you?

Not much.

Come on, you wanna get tough, Leo?

You've been drinking, haven't you?

That's what I thought.

Let me get this straight, with all the power

of all the police department,

you guys can't keep track of one ex-fighter

and his sidekick.

The good news is the package has

probably arrived at La Viuda Loca by now.

And then we can make the delivery

to the Mexicans in a couple of hours.

The bad news is we've got your stupid sister

and her stupid husband and two stupid greasers

that they hired, in control of this entire operation.

Reginald, it'll be all right.

Okay, everything's on track.

No, everything is not on track.

Because if it was, Danny Jackson would be

fighting in the main event on Saturday.

His son would be in the front row,

and we'd be selling an anonymous boy

instead of the offspring

of the most popular fighter of all time.

Reggie, please, don't get so worked up.

- I want you there. - What?

I want your ass in La Viuda Loca.

Are you crazy?

We need to stay away from this.

In the land of the stupid,

the man with half a brain is you.

I want you there overseeing the swap.

You understand me?

Do you understand me?

Yeah, I understand.

Crystal clear.

Hey, Danny, I hear they got Petey Wilson

to fight Medina this weekend.

Wilson, he couldn't carry my jock strap back in the day.

Neither could Medina.

I'm worried about my son, Freddy.

You gotta have faith, Danny.

What is a faith that allows people

to strap bombs to their kids in the name of God?

You tell me that, Freddy.

Danny, God doesn't give us a perfect world.

I mean, he just gives us the strength

to deal with what we have.

You know God doesn't have arms or legs.

He depends on us to do his work.

Let's go do it.

I'm sorry, I must have let the speed creep up on me.

Yeah, well, let me see your license and registration.

It's your lucky day, boys. Drive safe.

Where do we actually make the delivery?

The old fort, about a half mile from here.

Let me out.

I need to go to the bathroom.

Let me out of here. Come on!

Let me out of here. I need to go to the bathroom.

Jorge, take the kids out back

and don't take your eyes off of them.

Come on, come on.

Okay, pequeno, right there. She goes first.

Hey, in plain sight.

Right there, mijita.

You're not gonna watch me.

No, that wouldn't be okay.

Nice.

We're not gonna make it, are we?

Don't talk like that.

This is only a tiny little bird.

Charges were brought...

Are they ever gonna let us out of here.

Shh, watch.

...kidnappings of Jamie Jackson and Tara Hastings.

As well as charges of assault with intent to kill

against Jackson's father, Danny Jackson,

and Freddy Martinez.

An investigation is also being launched

into human trafficking allegations

against Sterling and the involvement

of his noted nonprofit organization,

known as La Oportunidad,

through which money was allegedly laundered.

Find what?

Faith.

Man, if you can go through what the two of us

went through and not find faith, you ain't human.

Amen.

What was that thing you told Jamie the other day?

Faith is believing in something

even when there's no reason to believe.

It comes from up there

and from right here.

Speaking of believing, what in the world

made you think you could beat Alonzo Medina?

Oh, shut up.

You know I could have taken that kid in three rounds max.

They must have all kinds of drugs

pumped into your system, man.

I mean, you don't even know what you're saying.

It is not the drugs, okay?

It's a fact, I would have taken that kid.

He's young, he's inexperienced,

I read an article that said you were 41.

I am 41.

You're 46 if you're a day.

Oh, Lord, you're probably closer to 50.
