Drugs? Power?
:32:04
Yeah. Power.
:32:06
That's what. Yeah. Power.
:32:10
- Yeah.
- You're fired.

:32:15
OK. Money, sex and drugs.
:32:18
Ladies and gentlemen,
I am proud to announce

:32:21
that 60 days from today,
:32:24
on March 17, St Patrick's Day,
:32:28
James "The Grim Reaper" Roper
:32:30
will defend his heavyweight title
:32:33
against the No. 8- Ranked
heavyweight contender,

:32:37
according to
the newly released WBI ranking -

:32:42
"Irish" Terry Conklin.
:32:49
- I'm not Irish.
- It's boxing. It just means you're white. Open.

:32:54
- There he is. There he is.
- "Irish" Terry Conklin.

:32:59
It's a goddamn disgrace. This kid can't fight.
You've sullied the great name of boxing.

:33:04
Oh, ye of little faith.
:33:07
This man has been catapulted
into the rankings

:33:10
by the honorable, estimable, incorruptible
president of World Boxing International,

:33:16
Mr. Julio Escobar.
:33:19
And for very good reason.
:33:21
Name one.
:33:24
- You forget he was an undefeated amateur...
- That's right.

:33:30
...who knocked out Roper
in the Golden Gloves Championship.

:33:33
- Knocked him through the ropes.
- I was 17, man. I'd kill Howdy Doody now.

:33:38
Nigger, sit your motherfucking ass down.
I'm trying to...

:33:43
I think Terry has a few words
he wants to say. Terry, come on.

:33:50
I would like to start off
by saying thank you to the champ

:33:53
for giving me this chance to...
:33:57
Wow, man. Wow.
