How much you say he weighs, Fred?
:58:57
265. He's 6'8".
:59:00
- Not bad, Dan.
- Here's Vancouver two weeks ago.
Now, hold on.

:59:04
- There's my boy,
the one on the right.!
- Couldn't miss him.

:59:07
Rushes straight in. Why,
when that kid first... Aw, for cryin'out loud.

:59:11
- Won't take a minute.
- I don't think we have to see any more, Pop.

:59:14
- No.
- So, what do ya say?

:59:18
- If that's no white hope,
I'm Queen Pocahontas.
- He's the right stuff, Dan.

:59:21
- Maybe a little raw yet.
- Fresh. Fresh is what he is.

:59:24
Big, clean, strong. Real farm boy.
They're waiting for something like him.

:59:29
I'm ready to promote it, Dan.
What do you think?

:59:31
I think he's a full-grown polar bear myself.
He's the best of the bunch. I won't argue.

:59:36
But say we send him over... bang...
it's 10-to-1 the black boy does it again.

:59:40
- Then where are we?
- We won't ever have it on a plate, you know.

:59:43
Pop, Fred,
let me tell you a secret.

:59:46
The next white hope is the one
who gets that belt back...

:59:49
not means to or almost does
or gets half-killed in trying.

:59:53
He takes it!
He finishes right on his feet...

:59:56
with a big, horizontal nigger
down there for good.
