Kallen's Gym.

Yeah, hold on.
:10:10
Hey, Jackie.
Doug-somebody from HBO.

:10:24
- Hello?
- You know who l am?

:10:27
Doug Doherty.
Of course l know who you are.

:10:31
Who forgets the unforgettable?
:10:35
Listen, HBO wants pre and post
with Shaw and Sands.

:10:39
Doable?
:10:41
Well, there's a reason
it's not in the contract.

:10:43
We promised our first dance
in Cleveland to a native son.

:10:46
Native? As in local?
:10:49
- You're kidding me.
- Luther knows this reporter.

:10:51
- He's comfortable with him.
- Jackie, come on.

:10:54
This is HBO, the major-domo
of boxing, we're talking about.

:10:57
Not some over-the-air,
commercial network.

:11:00
Look, Doug, we agreed to a post.
That's the best l can do.

:11:04
This local guy has been
too terrific to me.

:11:06
Can he guarantee
a double-digit rating?

:11:10
Make you queen for a day?
Longer if Luther wins?

:11:14
l'm holding the keys
to the kingdom, Jackie.

:11:16
All you gotta do is reach out
and grab them.

:11:20
lf you're man enough.
:11:22
- Are you man enough, Jackie?
- That's highly sexist.

:11:25
- And wouldn't you like to know?
- l certainly would.

:11:28
You know what you need?
lt just came to me.

:11:32
A personal profile.
:11:35
We get some great tape
on fight night.

:11:38
Mix it up, post and pre.
:11:41
Think about it, Jackie.
:11:42
You...
:11:44
...on HBO...
:11:47
...mano a mano...
:11:49
...with me.
:11:59
lt's a cliché, but l'm living proof
dreams do come true.
