:43:01
Oh, hey, my girl's homeboy.
The one that put us on the card.

:43:02
- Jackie said you weren't coming.
- Jackie says things.

:43:04
l'm a promoter. Promoters show up.
We don't read punches in the paper.

:43:09
- Nice fight. Congratulations.
- Thanks.

:43:11
- How you doing? Felix Reynolds.
- Sorry, Felix.

:43:13
l didn't know you were back.
:43:15
- Very nice job tonight.
- Thank you.

:43:17
KO. Just like l said.
Better than good.

:43:20
Listen, Luther, we got to talk
your next fight now.

:43:23
- Great.
- Here it is.

:43:25
Hey, wait a minute.
What are you doing?

:43:29
You talk to me. He boxes.
l book.

:43:37
Yeah.
:43:41
We need local exposure.
You need an A-plus story.

:43:45
l'm handing you one, exclusively.
:43:48
lt's not algebra, Gavin.
:43:50
Jackie, you against LaRocca
makes a great, quaint anecdote.

:43:54
Don't make a mission out of it.
:43:56
So, what, you're trying so hard not
to say is that it's a man's world?

:44:00
l don't have to say it.
You know it.

:44:02
You have a love
for the sport...

:44:04
But l should worship from afar. God
forbid l use anything from the neck up.

:44:12
He has to win a few more fights.
:44:13
He has to climb up the card
before l hot-dog him.

:44:16
- One more fight.
- What's your rush?

:44:18
Well, l got fired. Or maybe l quit.
As if you didn't know.

:44:22
The point is, l can't wait for you to
decide if Luther is newsworthy. He is.

:44:29
Luther Shaw weighs in at...
:44:33
...1 59 pounds on the dot.
:44:40
Here you go.
:44:43
They get on the scale thirsty.
They get off even thirstier.

:44:47
- He's heavier since Buffalo.
- Yeah, he's stronger.

:44:49
Your guy looks pretty good too.
Thank you so much.

:44:57
Don't drink that.
:44:58
Don't even smell it. l'm serious.
l'll get you another one.
