Return to the Ring (2024) Movie Script
- Got any Money?
- I do.
What are you having?
I don't understand Hungarian.
You have it in English.
Cheese, one with cheese.
What the...
Hey, Monkey face, watch it.
The girls are waiting!
What?
Not here. Don't make a problem.
Run, run, come on Mali!
Bastards. You are dead.
Get him. Mother Fu...
Somebody... Help.
I'm gonna smash you to pieces.
You ugly mother fu...
The cops. Come on...
Come on, man. Run...
Leave him, come on.
Police, stay where you are!
You know what eka...
Ever since Mali is working as security for
me, I have no problems, what so ever.
I wonder how to explain...
So even you can understand.
But Mali really is the best.
Ilidza, that's why I'm asking you
to release him for just one weekend,
so he can make the fight.
And then I'm gonna
bring him back to the club.
I know Zeka, and if someone breaks
his arm, gouges his eye or neuters him?
What am I gonna do for God's sake?
Well you've just said he's the best?
Well he is.
There you go.
You are smart, Zeka, but only when
You want to be...
You've known me for years, right?
Yes.
We know each other.
Yes.
I really care about Mali, trust me...
I don't actually know
why do you care so much?
Well, I care because he's reached a stage
in life when he needs help,
and I'm the only one who can help him.
If you're the only one eka.
Then he's doomed.
Stop pulling my leg...
Didn't I help you graduate
from university?
See what I'm doing,
I'm just helping people,
I'm a charity.
Stop eka, for some strange reason
I believe you.
There you go...
Mali! Come here,
Ilida needs you! Come on!
You've changed my life!
Listen Mali, Ilida needs a word!
Listen Mali, train seriously
from now on, do you understand?
- Clear?
- Clear!
And please, listen to eka.
He will, he will Ilida!
Listen, we can't screw this up!
- If we screw him over, I'm dead!
- Screw what up?
I've arranged for you, dear boy,
free time for fights...
Wait, stop!
We didn't talk about it seriously,
I need to think.
There's nothing to think about,
dear boy, I've seen you fight...
You've seen me fight amateurs,
and these are professionals.
- That's completely different.
- What is different?
- You are a class...
- I have to think about it...
Just trust me, I'm begging you...
Wait, don't go...
Can't people drink without
killing each other?
I have a new fighter. Trayan found him.
Show me.
There are at least five recordings of him.
You know I'm not interested in old fights.
- Is he in shape?
- He's great.
He's a quick learner,
absorbs like a spunge.
Igor's working with him.
Start preparing him.
If Centaur isn't ready for Evgenia's
tournament, we'll try him.
I understand.
I'll tell him it's
your daughter's tournament
for the whole planet to watch.
He mustn't disappoint us!
You are dismissed.
Pass it, pass it! Watch out for the eight!
Uncle Rade!
Hey, Mali!
I couldn't come earlier,
I was working late...
Don't worry. It's fine.
Let's go! Let's go!
Why there's, so few of them?
This is actually quite good.
We often don't have enough players
for a practice match.
Circle, circle!
I'll print some flyers again
and hand them out at schools...
We'll find some new kids.
Listen.
The club has no money.
The SPENS management told me
to pay for the last six months,
or to go train in the Danube, at Oficirac.
Circle, circle!
I'll get you the money.
End the practice.
Lale, the caps, the others take out
the goals.
Sabina, my old friend. You look great!
You've got five minutes. Begin!
But I won't listen to your stories
about bitcoins,
used cars and wardrobe, believe me.
I'm done with that!
Listen, I have a fighter.
He's a money machine!
He beat three guys last weekend
by himself.
He trains twice a day, only goes out
to nice places, no girlfriend...
Why he doesn't have a girl?
Is he a faggot?
He's not a fag,
he's just committed to his training.
The way this guy looks!
He's like Rocky, when he punches...
You've got three more minutes.
Enough with the stories.
How many fights he has till now?
How many fights so far?
He had...
Two.
That's pathetic.
But this guy's a miracle!
Trust me Sabina.
You'll earn 5,000 euros a month
without lifting a finger. Hey! 5000.
5000 you say?
Yes 5000.
That will get me half a tire for the car
and a Fendi hijab.
Ok 6000. That is my final offer.
Come on 9000...
There will be nothing left for me?
My kid needs insulin, how am I gonna
explain there won't be any insulin?
I need to change my car,
to be a manager, don't do that to me.
Please, make it 7000?
Sure. 8000.
Ok, fine 8000.
But tell that Albanian of yours
to get us into a match.
So, we will get there, and we will fight,
anywhere, anytime, with anyone.
Anywhere and anytime you say?!
And with anyone?
Yes.
I put my apartment in the ads.
A guy called me, from Temerin.
Beautiful house.
A huge yard,
plenty of trees,
just enough to have something
to do when I retire.
He needs an apartment in the city.
And the club?
You weren't listening to what
I was telling you today.
That's over with.
It's not over.
It's over Peter, dammit!
It is how it is, you have to learn
to forget and move on.
There's no other way.
I'll find a way, it's gonna be fine!
Why don't you answer your phone?
I've got sick of calling you...
I've been calling you, you're unavailable
all day, look at that phone of yours.
I've been at the cemetary.
At the cemetery, now?
I called you five times.
I didn't see, Nika's birthday is today...
Nika? Oh, ok, sorry, my condolences.
Condolences?!
It's not a funeral, it's his birthday?
Well, I'm sorry it's like that...
Hell with it, I forgot my pills...
I was with Sabina...
Listen to this, I've arranged a fight
for you next weekend, huh?
Didn't I tell you
that I have to think about it?
There's nothing to think about!
Sabina and I shook on it!
- You shook hands?
- We did.
Then - you can go in the ring and fight.
And where will you get the money
for that water polo club of yours?
I'll find a way.
You'll find a way?
What are you gonna do, huh!?
Fight in clubs, racketeer people
and rob stores...
Screw you and your entire generation.
I can't believe how Anemic you all are.
You're all Aggressive,
but you have No heart, nor soul.
I believe in you more than
you believe in yourself.
In life, if you want to win,
you have to fight, you know?
And the greatest victory
is defeating yourself.
I'm such a fool, I'm going to call Sabina
and cancel everything...
- OK Zeka, wait...
- Wait for what?
I admit it, you're right.
- Admit what?
- You are right!
What do you mean I'm right?
Is that a yes?
- Yes, I'm in.
- Hell yeah! Here we go!
- Where's the match?
- In Maribor, Slovenia.
That's ok for starters.
It's great! What's wrong with you?
All right...
All right!? All right!?
Don't you 'all right' me,
I need a confirmation dear boy!
Didn't we shake on it 5 seconds ago?
Do you know who Sabina is?
That woman's handling a million deals,
she hasn't been in Serbia for years,
and now she's back, man...
What she normally does
is humanitarian work,
she gives money to the poor
and that's how she earns...
How does she earn
if she gives money to the poor?
Well on interest...
Finish your meal.
I have things to do in the city.
But first have to use the toilet...
And look at this mess...
Come on, train until you drop dead!
Let's go! Come on!
It's good, rest, rest.
There's my brother!
Anderson Silva, brother!
Why are you so early?
I need to do groundwork.
Since when do you do groundwork?
eka set up a fight.
- When?
- In a few days.
The guy is a wrestler,
I need help with groundwork.
Okay, I'll show you.
He won't wrestle
if you knock him out first.
But if I get caught in a clinch?
You won't, you'll be ready,
come on get in...
You do a 100 lunges more
and then you go home!
All of you. And if you lie to me,
you lie to yourself!
Come on now. And we can have Silva ready
for a professional match.
Oh, howdy family, what are you up to?
Please, Maria,
some drinks for my brothers!
Every day we see you is
Independence day.
Hey Bala, why are you so grim?
What did I tell you about that accent?
Why you have to be like this with me?
What is it ekomire, you poor thing?
- What do you want Vaso?
- What's bothering you?
Are you turning old buckets into fighters
again, or perhaps into footballers?
What are you talking about?
You've earned your first money with me!
You wouldn't be a fighter if
I didn't arrange your first fights.
Stop giving me bullshit.
I don't need you, I need Lujo!
What do you need from Lujo?
I'm painting my ceiling.
I need him to hold the ladder for me.
I just need him.
- No way! Why?
- No way!
It's ok Bala, leave him be!
Lujo, safe and sound!
The French say that in order
to be a good chess player...
Yes!?
You can't be a good man.
Quite the opposite.
You need to be evil, to kill.
Listen, Lujo, what I need is...
The older I get, the more I value pawns.
Trust me.
Because when the game is over,
both the pawn and the king
go back to the same box.
You understand?
That's a good one, I'll remember that.
Speak you vagrant.
Here's the thing,
I have a fight In Slovenia in 2 days.
I need 20 000 euros in cash.
- I can't believe the bad luck you have...
- Why?
You should have come this
morning or two hours ago,
I came across this man
begging and I gave him everything.
Lujo, don't pull my leg!
I know all the old tricks.
You know the only thing
I can pledge is my head.
And what am I suppose to do
with your head,
when there's nothing in it? Tell me.
Sabina has aranged this match...
Who? Who?
Sabina, do you know her?
You're in cahoots
with that trollop, Sabina!?
You know...
Bala, give the man
a financial transfusion... For 20.
Thank you, Lujo!
So I don't have to keep looking at him.
Shoo, shoo... go.
20 thousand...
I will see those money back,
Exactly - never.
That's good. It's good.
My son, just keep practicing.
Love you, just practice.
eka didn't you say it
will be a small hall,
with no crowd in the audience,
because Slovenians,
doesn't watch MMA?
Did you told me this?
And look what's out there.
Don't deal with the crowd.
We are in Slovenia, and you're not skiing,
you're fighting. Give me a break.
I'm the only one without a coach.
You don't need a coach
for this fight, Duan is enough.
Guys you have 10 minutes!
We have 5 minutes.
Let them do their thing,
you're in your own head.
You're gonna get in there like
Tyson against Spinks in 88.
- I didn't watch that fight.
- You'll see when you knock him down.
Come on! Come on!
Let's go!
What cheer, we don't have any cheer?
We have a cheer!
Come on "TYSON, TYSON"
One, two, three!
TYSON.
From Novi Sad, Serbia,
the lone wolf
Petar Babic...
MALIIIII...
From Elbasan,
the imperial city,
a mighty tiger
Ilir Krasnici.
Ilir...
Ready?
Ready?
Fight!
That's it! That's it! Move!
Keep your eyes on Mali!
Is this guy an original Albanian, huh?
Let's go!
Let's go!
Don't panic!
Be still!
Get out!
Be still!
Be still!
Hit that bell ref, it's time!
Sit here, sit!
It's good, brother, sit...
It's good, just move,
don't just stand there,
go in pa pa pa, feint,
go in, go out, don't stand still.
Breathe, just breathe normally.
Breathe, you're going to the market,
buying bananas, you're above everything.
And just move, come on!
Ready?
Fight!
All right!
Don't just stand there!
That's it! That's it!
That's right!
Easy, be calm!
That's it! Let him get to you!
The end! It's over!
Well done!
It's over! Over! Mali, it's over!
Let him go!
Did you take it?
Yes... Oh, stand up!
Hi! Hello!
Mr. Beria would like to meet you.
You're not bad,
but you won by chance, are you aware?
Yes, lucky punch.
Yes, but we only had a few
days to prepare.
But we won.
You must have heard about
the tournament in Moldova.
I have a fighter, but I want you instead.
We can arrange that...
That can be done for more money...
Of course...
Just so you know.
You're a good fighter but a bad manager.
Almost as bad as him.
But only he bet on you.
By tomorrow,
let Sabina know what's your decision.
We'll let Sabina know.
If you were a little bit informed,
you would know which tournament
we are talking about.
The money is bigger,
but so are the beatings.
Come on, keep an eye
on your boss, come on!
It's OK.
Wait, did you really bet on me?
I talked him into it!
You talked me into it, come here!
Wait, I'm in pain!
You'll get your cut!
It's yours, you take it...
No, no, what you earn with
your hands is what you get.
Just save that excess for a trainer.
Yeah, you're right about the trainer.
We'll find one.
Let's fix that right away,
Duane, where is Zoran Baulov?
Zoka Baulov is with Todorovi
in Hong Kong, they have a match there.
God damn it. Who else, then?
Wait...
How about Daka?
I've always said it's easier to work
with horses than with people...
Oh brother,
I heard your fighter was
really lucky in Slovenia?
It's called tactics!
The reality is that he had
no idea what he was doing.
I'm telling you, tactics...
If that was your tactic,
you wouldn't come here.
Don't joke around...
Ok, tell me, where's the fire!
I have an important match in Moldova.
I need you to train my fighter,
and we have about twenty days.
Really... Twenty days?
Do you really think I can teach anyone
anything in twenty days?
Come on,
it's just groundwork and wrestling.
Yes, of course, "just" wrestling.
To be a millionaire,
you just need to rob a bank.
He needs at least a year for that.
So, nothing!
Nothnig!
Daka, I would be in your debt forever
if you took him under your wing.
He doesn't need me, he needs a wizard.
Do you have anyone in the police?
Of course, I have everything you need!
There is a man, but to get to him
you'll need a solid police contact.
And even if you find him,
he's not always in a good mood...
His name is Vladan Basta...
Who is he?
The guy is out of sports,
but that's what you need right now.
A long-time mercenary, a soldier,
not to say hitman,
operating from Iraq to Kiseljak...
Get out of here... I don't need that...
Take it with a grain of salt,
I'm telling you what's best for you.
That's your only solution.
Hey kid, buy some Smoki.
Hey bro, are you lonely?
Hm?
I see you keep looking at our table,
I know we're pretty, but still...
Buddy, go have some fun!
Listen, I do what I want, capish?
I'm asking if you want to...
There are hot chicks there, want a drink?
We understood each other.
You can light a smoke,
whatever you want,
just refer it to me,
I see you've got a problem.
Is every think OK?
Everything's fine,
If there's a problem, just say Kosta.
Take it easy buddy!
Everything's OK.
Just say Kosta Tarla.
I saw you speaking with Kosta.
I hope he didn't give you any trouble.
What are you ding with those rednecks?
That's my business, isn't it?
I'm Jovana!
Mali (kid).
Your name is Mali?
They call me Mali, my name is Petar...
OK Petar, here you go.
But I don't have...
I know you don't have a business card,
this is for you to call me...
At least that's how it should be.
Listen Mali, I got us Basta!
How?
I have my methods.
The less you know the better!
Tell me how?
We do a match and we have him.
- Where?
- The match is in Srem.
In Srem?
Yes, in Srem?
No, it's in Pinosava...
Stop fooling around.
OK.
What is this?
UFC, MMA, you shit yourselves
when the cops arrive?
Come on, get in!
What is this?
Get in!
Are we getting lucky or what?
We can arrange for that as well!
- Are you kidding?
- What do you want?
You enter like gentlemen.
I used to be thrown in headfirst.
Close it!
Don't close it!
Don't close it!
OK, boys. Here we are...
What is this place?
It's Srem.
You brought me to prison.
Fights have been organised here for
the last seven or eight years.
It's all legal and here we fight.
That's all.
OK, who am I fighting?
A karate fighter.
He doesn't know any groundwork.
You've got this!
A little bit of Van Dam and you're done!
Van Dam is a ballet dancer.
His mum was a ballerina.
His mum, huh?
A bit of Rambo then!
Rambo's got a Machine gun.
Wait, can you say Rambo?
What?
Say Rambo?
- Rambo?
- What?
Now say Rocky!
You can suck my cocky?
No, no, come on say Rocky,
- Rocky?
- I'm not Rocky, I'm Rambo!
I can't listen to you anymore...
I'm trying to cheer you up,
why are you so stiff?
Welcome, boys!
Hello!
What's up, Rambo?
Nistor, Nistor...
- Karate fighter, huh?
- Yes.
- He doesn't know any wrestling?
- That's right.
So where did he get those ears? Rugby?
Come on, this is not a quiz! Fight!
Let's go! Let's go!
Take it easy!
Let's go! Let's go!
Move!
That's it!
Bravo!
Hold it!
He doesn't know!
All right, let's go! Come on!
Here's the address.
Thank you!
I'll be expecting your call.
But I've told you everything I know.
Oh, come on, friends always have
something to tell each other.
You're an old snitch.
You know what?
Compared to all the assholes in the world,
I'm not that bad.
Get in there! Make him suffer!
Come on, Mali!
All right! That's it!
All right, Mali!
So, did you win a medal?
No, it wasn't that kind of fight?
What kind of fight was it?
I got the contact of a trainer.
What kind of contact is one you fight for?
I hope it's a worthy kind.
I hope the fights are not like in
the movies, prison and criminal fights.
They're not.
Is there a mafia involved?
Mafia is everywhere nowadays.
From football to farming.
But there are good people too.
For example, they tell you to fix a fight
so you'd get more money, would you do it?
Depends.
What does it depend on?
Are you in debt?
Sort of.
You're very mysterious.
Can I ask you something?
Ask away!
Would your bank be interested
in sponsoring a club?
I don't understand? What do you mean?
A water polo club in town is about
to close, we need money urgently.
I saw that your bank sponsors such things.
Wait, I don't understand.
Are you a water polo player or a fighter.
I'm a fighter.
I used to play water polo as a kid.
A long time ago.
Did you ask me out
because of the sponsorship?
No, of course not!
But I did mean to ask you that.
You can get the answer
in any of our branches.
You hand in the papers,
submit the request
and wait for them to tell you
'Yes or 'No'.
Check please!
I'm sorry about earlier.
It all came out stupid and confusing.
"I woud like to make it up to you.
Please, call me."
I'm sorry about earlier.
It all came out stupid and confusing.
I woud like to make it up to you.
To the left, huh?
I'm telling you turn right!
Right! Pull over here.
Here?
That's what the navigation says.
Supid phone!
Dear God, where does this guy live,
it's easier to find water in the desert.
Well, the navigation says it's here.
Is that inspector who gave
you the address reliable?
He's reliable, I know him.
Ma'm!
Excuse me, does Vladan Basta live here?
I don't talk to cops!
Who's a cop?!
They think you're a cop!
Me, a cop? You're the cop!
Look what you're wearing!
Me? You hang out with cops,
and you slick your hair back like a cop.
Excuse me,
do you know where Vladan Basta lives?
I don't talk to cops.
What did I tell you?
Alright, does anyone know
where Vladan Basta lives?
What do you want with Basta?
If you could contact him, we need him
as a trainer, we're doing a match.
He is not interested.
You just introduce me to him,
and we'll see if he's interested or not.
Trust me, he's not!
Basta?
Listen, as for our relationship,
no one will know...
Sit's taken.
What?
I'll pay for everything,
whatever you need...
I need help.
I have a match in 20 days.
If I lose, I'm finished.
You don't say.
I don't care about whores or fast cars.
I'm fighting for a higher purpose.
A higher purpose?
Good for you.
The boy is serious!
Boys, the door is over there.
What?
Good for you, Basta.
Let's go.
Listen to him.
He won't do it. We'll find someone else.
I'm not begging anyone.
He was removing the sticker and
ruined the foil on the inside.
You're still here?!
We're here.
I'm telling you, I need your help.
I don't train fighters anymore.
- Mali, let him go!
- Basta!
Let him go, he won't do it.
eka, you can go!
He won't do it!
He's nuts from all that caffein.
What are you doing?
Waiting for you.
Didn't I tell you I'm not gonna train you?
Give me one good reason to do it?
I'm afraid.
Alright, get ready. We're starting.
Now?
Not now, you fool. Tomorrow, at 7am.
This is the address where I train.
How much money should I get?
Whatever you say!
I've got money. Go sleep.
So, this is where you train.
Yes.
I've seen the match in Slovenia.
Do you know why you lost the first round?
Because of wrestling.
Alright, let's begin.
Put these on and take them off 50 times,
without holding onto anything.
Understood?
That's easy.
We won't be training here, over there!
Come on! Don't stop!
A bit faster, faster, faster.
Come on!
- Easy, huh?
- I did everything you said.
Take those sneakers off, put them on
and tie the shoelaces 50 times more.
When you're done, go straight to sleep!
Training lasts until 9.
From 9 to 11 you do whatever you want.
At 11 I want you in bed.
In the morning, training starts at
7 and lasts until 9.
Two training sessions are enough.
In the morning, we'll work on
strength and endurance,
and in the evening, we'll work on
technique and concentration.
Continue with putting on the sneakers,
the training isn't over.
Put the box there, I'll take this.
We need to celebrate, baby!
- Celebrate what?
- They've just let me know!
We're going to Budapest!
Who's going to Budapest?
You and me, you idiot.
Told you what?
I got us a contract.
Sharks from Budapest.
One year. And if we stand out,
they'll extend it for sure.
Nobody called me.
They called me, but I insisted that
we go together.
- No, no way!
- What are you talking about?
No, I feel stupid.
You're going and that's final!
We're going to Pest!
All right, I think that's it.
I love this building more than the club!
You know you were like a second son to us.
Stop by Temerin these days!
I will, and I'll bring money too.
I have the money for one month's rent.
I inquired about loans
and sponsorships as well.
Forget about the money.
Spend it on a girl.
No, no...
Petar,
listen to me carefully.
It was not your fault.
It was destined to happen.
It was my fault.
It's not! Stop living in the past.
Nika was my son,
but I must keep on living.
I just have to.
You also have to, son.
You must let him go once and for all.
Don't do this to yourself.
And don't blame Budapest.
You two would have caused trouble even
in Beoin, let alone somewhere else.
The club was doomed anyway.
No-one cares about water polo anymore.
The stands were full of girls,
just because of you guys.
If you need anything let me know.
I'll see you.
European Championship Waterpolo,
First Place, Belgrade 2006
You're late.
I'm three minutes late.
That's why you're gonna run
for three hours.
Three hours be a cause of three minutes?
Yes, yes.
Where are you going?
- To change.
- No, no, you're running like that.
In shoes and jeans?
Don't look at me, I didn't dress you.
Leave the backpack.
I'm really gonna run like this?
The outside lane!
Wait a second.
Do you have an invitation?
- What?
- Tonight is by invitation only.
Welcome, good evening!
What invitations?
Tell Ilida, Kosta Tarla is here.
Buddy, do you have invitations?
Same invitations they have.
They're on the list.
Oh, there's a list too?
Every club has a list!
- Kosta Tarla isn't on the list?
- See for yourself.
The famous Kosta Tarla isn't on our list.
Looks like it.
Alright guys.
You can explain to Ilida why
he's 1000 euros short tonight.
Please, make some room.
Maybe I should call him,
what do you think?
I'm going to call him now.
And I'm going to ruin you.
Come on, we'll talk in the car.
What? Jovana!
- What's wrong with you?
- Where's your boyfriend?
- I asked you a question.
- Did you send him to bed?
Shame on you.
Wait Jovana! Wait!
I have been calling you, writing...
I want to make up for everything.
How?
I don't know, I'll think of something.
I just need some time.
I'm going to a tournament in Moldova,
so when I come back.
You want to make up for it,
but you don't know how...
Now you're going to Moldova.
Yes.
Moldova?
Yes, that's where the tournament is.
Man, she's into me, trust me.
Yeah, yeah...
Boss, they called me from Maribor.
The Albanian wants to send
two fighters to the tournament.
What did you tell them?
I said they were welcome.
Although he fooled us in Sydney.
Let them come.
We will return them in coffins!
Give them the best hotel,
the best promotion,
the highest bettings,
and the best women.
Seriously?
And the worst opponents!
Boss, we have a beast for them.
Let's thank the fighters.
From Novi Sad, Serbia
Duan, The Great!
Ladies and gentlemen,
his weight is 89 kg.
Bravo, Duki.
Look at him, chewing gum.
I'm going to the cocktail party
to mingle and see who's there.
You and Dule go rest. Is that clear?
Clear.
- Don't you 'Clear' me.
- What do you want me to say?
I want you to go rest,
no partying tonight.
I want strong focus tomorrow.
See how big that Moldovan is?
I'll tell him, but he's not a kid.
He's not. There's only one kid (Mali)!
I'll go to the room and
study my opponent.
That's right, study,
since you didn't study at school!
See that! Please look after him.
After you.
It doesn't work...
Later will talk.
Goodbye.
Moldavia is a beautiful country.
Sorry, are you finished?
Personally, Flemish.
My name is eka.
I'm a manager from South Europe.
Oh, Southern Europe?
Where from? Italy, Spain, Lisbon?
No, no, another country.
Serbia, Croatia,
Bosnia, Montenegro, Albania...
Oh, nice. I'm Inge!
Nice to meet you.
- Sorry, Inge Van Gorp?
- Yes?
You have United Sports Group?
Yes!
You know everything already!
I'm a lucky man!
You have fighters here or
you're just here for the bets?
Yes I have a fighter here, he is the best.
He is in the light heavyweight category.
His name is Mali. He's like Peter Aerts.
Yes, of course!
We also have a fighter
in the light heavyweight category
from Guadalajara Mexico.
He is very good.
And I bet your fighter won't stand for
three seconds in the final with him.
We will see.
The fights here in Chiinu
are very easy for us.
Inge!
Tell me.
What if we win in this match?
If you win we can have a meeting
about a contract in our company.
We can even hire a private jet.
But, but...
Dream on, Southern Europe.
And a private room?
Southern Europe!
What's the Czech like?
He's good, he's a kick boxer.
But also serious in the groundwork.
He's built like a news stand.
Where are you going?
I'm going to do some groundwork
with that hostess.
Are you serious,
you have a match tomorrow.
Okay, so what?
I'm gonna fight and
let the chips fall where they may.
Wanna come with me?
No, stay, get some sleep.
Come with me?
Let's strengthen our bond.
No, I'm gonna watch this
and go to sleep.
An I'm... just great.
Love you, bro!
Don't stay late,
eka is gonna rattle my chains tomorrow.
Evgenia, nice to see you.
You look fantastic.
We will go inside together?
Good evening, Chiinu!
Good evening, Moldova!
Do you know why our tournament
is the most special?
Because here the crowd
doesn't come to watch you fall.
They come to watch you get up!
I wish you all a successful final,
but also a merciless fight!
We must not be bored!
Long live Moldova!
Fighters, come!
Fighters, you know the rules.
Protect yourself at all times.
Now touch gloves.
To your corners!
Ready?
Ready?
Fight!
Keep your distance!
Get away from him.
That's it!
Close the distance!
Get away, get out!
Keep moving. He's getting tired.
Stop!
No cardio, tease him.
Tease him, let him move.
Wait for him and punch.
Ready?
Ready? Fight!
All right, that's it!
Don't stare at people. Watch the ring.
Watch the fight!
- We're watching.
- What's with the gum?
Chewing gum is good for the focus.
Boss...
The Serbian, that Florian sent...
He won.
Gheorghe is fighting soon
with the other one.
I want to send a message to Florian.
Let Gheorghe do what he needs to do.
This is a chance to prove himself.
Yes, boss.
Make it a very clear message.
Especially in the final
with the other Serb.
How is my arrogant daughter's
tournament going?
Everything is perfect.
We're waiting for Ursu'
to follow his instinct.
Ready?
Ready?
Fight!
Lift your guard.
There you go. Avoid him.
- Good. Bravo.
- That's good, a?
Attack. Hit him.
Destroy him! Do it, now!
Kill him, Ursu. Come on.
End it, reff!
Can you hear me? Duki, Duki...
- Medic...
- Come on!
What round is it?
I'm here, brother.
INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENIN MOLDOVA
Petar Babi Mali
defeated the Czech fighter.
Hey, what's up?
How is he?
He's fine, he's got a
concussion from the fall.
He's in the right hands,
don't worry about anything.
I bring him to the tournament in Moldova,
I pawn my ass, ready to lose face.
And how does repay me?
Chasing girls, right?
He has a concussion but he's fine.
Tell me honestly what's wrong with him.
Please, I don't wanna lose you too.
Focus on the match, in two hours
is the final with the Mexican.
Think about him, not about Duan.
And eat up, stop dragging around
like a student in the canteen.
I got the food two minutes ago!
I'll call you back, I'm in roaming.
Just give me the heel of the bread,
to soak up the stomach acid, please.
Don't give me the whole thing.
Okay, give it here.
Hell with it.
From Mexico,
world champion Luis Fernandez
Mexico, Mexico...
- Stop worrying about it.
- Who's worried?
You look worried.
Ready?
Ready?
Fight!
Stop! Time!
You're as stiff as a piece of wood.
What did I paid you for?
To be touched or to fight?
You didn't even pay me!
I'll pay you now!
Yes, pay me now!
Get serious, people are watching.
Don't look at him, just punch him,
why are you looking at him.
And please remember, it is not strength
that wins, but intelligence.
Buzz off eka, you know nothing.
Watch out for those high kicks!
Ready? Ready? Fight!
Stop!
What are you doing?
Hold this!
You don't wanna fight?
Do you want me to fight him?
Do you want me to get in
the ring and fight him?
He's laughing at you.
He finished Duan
and now he's laughing at you.
That's what you're doing.
For God's sake.
If you want to die, please, die in battle!
Come on, coaches!
Please!
Ready! Ready! Last round. Fight!
You've got him now, pull!
Stop!
Time! To your corners!
Three seconds,
just three more seconds...
The winner is, the one and only,
Luis Fernandez from Mexico.
Did you see that? We were three seconds
short of winning the gold.
Thank you for calling.
Your fight was the most watched in Europe!
Do you know what that means?
How is Duan?
Duan is fine. He'll get one last IV and
he's going home with us in the morning.
I hate this bloody sport...
Bloody sport, you say, but what do I
tell you all the time?!
For this sport,
it's not enough only to have it here...
You have to have it also... here.
What's wrong with you now?
Nothing, I just need Duki to be OK.
Duki will be fine.
Let me see your eye.
Jeez, put your hand back.
He really wrecked me, everything hurts.
Thank you.
The way he hit you,
it doesn't surprise me.
Fuck it brother.
Great.
If you had slept the night before...
I know brother. It is how it is.
But the fight was good.
Want some?
I can't chew.
How do you chew gum?
I just hold it in my mouth.
What did the doctor say?
You can't fight for a year?
Yeah, a year...
Screw it. I will work
at the door for Ilida in the club.
That awaits all of us.
God's will...
Thanks for coming.
Are you kidding?!
It means a lot.
You're my brother.
I just need you to be fine.
I'll be OK.
These tangerines are awful.
"PETAR BABI LOST IN THE FINALS BUT WON
OVER THE AUDIENCE IN MOLDOVA!"
I prefer the warehouse in Eka,
it's closer to our location...
Oh, doll! Where have you been?
Hello, guys.
Water, huh?
It's healthy.
I forgot the taste of water.
Come here.
I have something age appropriate.
What is it?
Look!
What am I looking at?
How many sheep are there?
I have no idea.
Focus.
How many sheep?
Ten?
Focus!
Do you know why Duan lost the match?
Focus?
And why were you a bit short of winning?
Because of focus.
Well done, genius.
You were thinking about
his opponent, not yours.
Next time I see him,
I will make his mother cry.
You'll make his mother cry,
IF you ever meet him.
In order to meet him you must win.
If there isn't a match or money soon,
I'll quit this sport.
That's your problem.
Here, read something.
There are ten sheep!
Where's the money?
They are not in here. Not in the barrel.
- Why don't take another look?!
- Don't.
Where's the money?
- Please don't.
- Where's the money?
Stop already!
Can't you see I'm out of breath.
The money's under the seat!
It's all here.
Next time you try to gamble
with our money,
you'll go diving wearing concrete boots.
There's no need for that.
Let's go.
See you...
You have two hours to finish that.
Let's go!
I see you're dry.
Why did you sell me out
to the Montenegrins?
You are way too emotional.
It's just business.
If it's just business,
help me get back on my feet.
You have a nose for good fighters,
but at everything else you're a dummy.
I trust people.
However, I have something for you.
I need you to rat on someone
to your friend, the inspector.
Related to an auction.
Rat on who?
I'll tell you. I just have some
business in Pazar.
Sabina my dear, if I do that, I'm dead.
Life is short, eka.
So you decided to shorten it
for another ten years.
Get this done and
I'll get you into Megdan.
Otherwise, you won't enter
any serious tournament.
You see, those friends of yours,
always end up kissing the floor.
Come on, hurry up!
Me and my luck...
I thought you were a fighter,
but you go to evening school.
Where did you come from?
I came to see where you train.
You came to see the gym?
And you.
Just to see me?
Just that?
I want to show you something.
This is the pool where I used to train.
I spent half my life here.
The first time I came with my family.
After some time my mom died,
I lost my father shortly after,
so the coach and the founder of
the club accepted me as a son.
It's really nice here.
I still don't understand
why you switched to fighting.
I just couldn't play water polo anymore.
Why?
You don't have to tell me
if you don't want to.
That coach, his son is my best friend.
We grew up together, trained together,
we were inseparable.
In 2016, there was a situation
in Budapest.
I started a fight
in which he lost his life.
After that I couldn't enter
the pool for years.
I understand.
But why the fights?
People say it's some kind of anger
buried inside me.
But the truth is that I can't do
anything else.
Knowing how to fight and play water polo,
is not exactly a job recommendation.
It's not like that.
What's it like then?
I wouldn't be with you
if that was the case.
I know there's something more.
Will you help me save the club?
I will.
I'm still not sure whether you like me,
or have a hidden agenda.
You're not sure?
And you never will be.
Hey, what's up guys?
How are you Mali, Duki?
Ilida, you legend!
Listen people, eka has good news.
When you hear this, Ilida,
you'll open a crate of champagne.
So it's not prostate cancer?
God forbid!
Mali, come here, come to eka.
What would you do without eka?
Where did you get the glasses?
Evgenia gave them to me.
It's fashionable in Moldova.
Listen to me now!
Tell me?
We're fighting on Megdan!
You understand?
Radakovi is injured and now you're
fighting for the championship belt.
And the match is in three weeks!
I know it's in three weeks,
but I can't do it!
Why?
No way, I told you about short notice.
They agree.
The Moldovans insisted on you
being the replacement.
Well, if the Moldovans insisted...
It's a fight for the belt, man.
Wait, you didn't hear
who your opponent is.
Who is it?
I think you'll find this inter sting!
Who is it?
Gheorghe Ursu!
Brother!
- I'm in.
- You're in?
We're in! Ilida let's go drink!
Maja, climb that pole right away!
We must take him too!
32 laps!
You're lying?
I'm not lying, I'm dead.
I wanted to ask about Megdan,
is there any chance of me winning.
Focus.
Wait, Mali.
I'm going away,
I won't be here for some time.
What are you talking about?
What am I gonna do without you?
You don't need me anymore.
Come on Basta, what are you saying?
Pages 43 to 56 are
all you need for Megdan.
You can read the rest, it may be useful.
Or not...
Wait Basta?
So, I can bring my friends,
you won't embarrass us?
I don't know, and I don't know
how smart it is to fight...
What happened?
I don't have a trainer.
He said I was ready, that I didn't
need him anymore, and he left.
Well, I think he's right.
You know how people come to
fights to see someone fall?
In this, people will come
to see you Stand!
You think?
I know it!
It is going to be the greatest
birthday ever.
- When is your birthday?
- Then, on Saturday.
I have to win, then!
You have to!
For Boyko!
Face to face guys!
Thank you, guys!
That's it, Mali.
The weighing is over.
Tonight, we have a special guest.
A guest of honour.
K1 champion of the world,
The Flying Gentleman,
Mr. Remy Bonjasky!
Remy, thank you for coming to Serbia!
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much Balkan.
Thank you, guys!
What you think about the next fight?
I think we're gonna see some blood.
It's gonna be a great fight.
I'm looking forward to that!
Does Mali have a chance?
In every fight there is a chance,
so he will stand a chance!
Thank you for coming!
REMY BONJASKY!
This prostate is killing me.
What a nightmare.
edo!
eka, my brother!
You kicked ass!
Here's Mali!
Pero, I've seen your fight in Moldova.
You were great.
Thank you!
It means a lot coming from you!
Do you know what was Caesar's
only unfulfilled dream?
No?
To be a gladiator!
Come on, warm up!
Thank you brothers!
Hold on.
You've come a long way, you sissy.
Congrats!
Brother!
Don't do it!
I Don't need pathetic laments.
I know...
It's your fault,
you should have listened to me.
So?
How many times I screw up, and you
saved my sorry ass?
Forget it. It was God's will.
Why wasn't God's will to take me?
I fight every day...
What are you saying?
Hello, Mali!
Stop using that night as an excuse
for failures and missed opportunities.
You don't wanna live anymore?
So, jump off a bridge!
Or you get on that ring and you make
this jackass pay!
Take control over your own life.
I pray for you every day.
I know.
Two more minutes.
In the third main fight of the evening,
in the fight for the "Megdan" belt,
the blue corner from Chiinu,
the favorite in "Soccer bet"
Gheorghe Ursu!
In the red corner, for the first time at
"Megdan" from Novi Sad,
former water polo player
with over five MMA fights,
ladies and gentlemen Petar Babi Mali!
The referee in the ring, Dejan Tei.
eka!
Yes, Vaso!
Look at this poor guy!
YOU DIDN'T COME, AGAIN!
This Bear is gonna bury him
in front of everyone.
It's not you, who's getting beat up.
So relax and take it easy.
Let's go, Mali! Let's go!
Ready? Ready? Fight!
Come on, hit him first!
Get in first.
That's it, lift your hands.
Don't chase him.
Let him come to you.
Tuck in the elbows!
Get out!
Let him come!
That's it, get out!
Arms up!
Don't chase him, man.
Come on, ref. Pay attention, will you?
Lift your arms!
Tuck in your elbows!
That's right, counterattack!
Tuck in the elbows!
Enough! Enough!
We are here with the founder of
Megdan Aleksa Balaevi.
Remy what do you think
about the first round?
It seems like Ursu is so much
more experienced than Mali.
Well, he is.
It's so hard to predict the outcome of
this fight, its like a game of roulette.
Don't chase him! Let him get tired!
He's stronger.
Let him get tired, listen to me.
Give him water.
I know, you saw... I went in...
Move, don't fight.
Breathe through your mouth,
mouth than nose.
You wait for him, and then you
Surprise him with a hit.
Santa on 1st of May is not going
to surprise him...
Keep breathing and stay away from him.
You hear me? Breathe.
Breathe, he's gonna breathe later!
Let him fight now, for Christ's sake.
Ready? Ready? Fight!
Wait for him!
Out! Get your hand out!
Get out somehow, get out!
Over your head! Get your hand out!
Lift your arms, Mali!
Don't let him go! He's finished!
Hold it, hold it!
Don't let him go!
That's it!
You've got him now. Hit him!
Let him get tired, that's it!
Come on, now!
Don't chase him!
God damn it. He's screwed.
Hold it.
Hold on, Mali!
Basta?!
Leave it.
He's choking him!
Stop!
Basta has arrived, bring him here.
Basta!
You have enough strength
for three flying knees! Listen to me now.
When I say 'Now' you kick him like this.
No sooner, no later, did you hear me?
I heard.
Focus!
Give me water.
Give you water?! I'm not your waiter.
And all they say is: Breathe, Breathe...
Let's go, brother!
Breathe, he kept saying that!
You have another round, come on!
It's good you're here, you know!
Now!
Now!
Now!
That's it!
That's right!
How about that Remy?
It seems like he learned that stuff
from you, The Flying Gentleman.
I think he saw all my videos
about the jumping knee.
What a great fight,
what a great knockout!
What a crazy fight.
The winner Petar Babi Malii
Happy Birthday!
So, what have you decided?
- Decided about what?
- About the fight, the match?
Where's your gum?
My filling fell out!
It's weird! He's talking without
a gum for the first time.
I must go to the dentist.
Where is eka?
Zeka is probably working on
a scheme somewhere...
Son!
Daddy!
My love!
Look what I bought you.
Look, it's a violin my darling.
But daddy I play football.
Football, didn't you say violin.
Come on darling, we'll be late.
Wait Maja, how come
I don't know anything about my son?
You haven't known
anything for a long time.
Come on, son.
Maja!
Who is this?
Yes?
Greetings from Moldova!
Do you feel like going to Tokyo?
It's time to sit at a bigger table.
- I do.
What are you having?
I don't understand Hungarian.
You have it in English.
Cheese, one with cheese.
What the...
Hey, Monkey face, watch it.
The girls are waiting!
What?
Not here. Don't make a problem.
Run, run, come on Mali!
Bastards. You are dead.
Get him. Mother Fu...
Somebody... Help.
I'm gonna smash you to pieces.
You ugly mother fu...
The cops. Come on...
Come on, man. Run...
Leave him, come on.
Police, stay where you are!
You know what eka...
Ever since Mali is working as security for
me, I have no problems, what so ever.
I wonder how to explain...
So even you can understand.
But Mali really is the best.
Ilidza, that's why I'm asking you
to release him for just one weekend,
so he can make the fight.
And then I'm gonna
bring him back to the club.
I know Zeka, and if someone breaks
his arm, gouges his eye or neuters him?
What am I gonna do for God's sake?
Well you've just said he's the best?
Well he is.
There you go.
You are smart, Zeka, but only when
You want to be...
You've known me for years, right?
Yes.
We know each other.
Yes.
I really care about Mali, trust me...
I don't actually know
why do you care so much?
Well, I care because he's reached a stage
in life when he needs help,
and I'm the only one who can help him.
If you're the only one eka.
Then he's doomed.
Stop pulling my leg...
Didn't I help you graduate
from university?
See what I'm doing,
I'm just helping people,
I'm a charity.
Stop eka, for some strange reason
I believe you.
There you go...
Mali! Come here,
Ilida needs you! Come on!
You've changed my life!
Listen Mali, Ilida needs a word!
Listen Mali, train seriously
from now on, do you understand?
- Clear?
- Clear!
And please, listen to eka.
He will, he will Ilida!
Listen, we can't screw this up!
- If we screw him over, I'm dead!
- Screw what up?
I've arranged for you, dear boy,
free time for fights...
Wait, stop!
We didn't talk about it seriously,
I need to think.
There's nothing to think about,
dear boy, I've seen you fight...
You've seen me fight amateurs,
and these are professionals.
- That's completely different.
- What is different?
- You are a class...
- I have to think about it...
Just trust me, I'm begging you...
Wait, don't go...
Can't people drink without
killing each other?
I have a new fighter. Trayan found him.
Show me.
There are at least five recordings of him.
You know I'm not interested in old fights.
- Is he in shape?
- He's great.
He's a quick learner,
absorbs like a spunge.
Igor's working with him.
Start preparing him.
If Centaur isn't ready for Evgenia's
tournament, we'll try him.
I understand.
I'll tell him it's
your daughter's tournament
for the whole planet to watch.
He mustn't disappoint us!
You are dismissed.
Pass it, pass it! Watch out for the eight!
Uncle Rade!
Hey, Mali!
I couldn't come earlier,
I was working late...
Don't worry. It's fine.
Let's go! Let's go!
Why there's, so few of them?
This is actually quite good.
We often don't have enough players
for a practice match.
Circle, circle!
I'll print some flyers again
and hand them out at schools...
We'll find some new kids.
Listen.
The club has no money.
The SPENS management told me
to pay for the last six months,
or to go train in the Danube, at Oficirac.
Circle, circle!
I'll get you the money.
End the practice.
Lale, the caps, the others take out
the goals.
Sabina, my old friend. You look great!
You've got five minutes. Begin!
But I won't listen to your stories
about bitcoins,
used cars and wardrobe, believe me.
I'm done with that!
Listen, I have a fighter.
He's a money machine!
He beat three guys last weekend
by himself.
He trains twice a day, only goes out
to nice places, no girlfriend...
Why he doesn't have a girl?
Is he a faggot?
He's not a fag,
he's just committed to his training.
The way this guy looks!
He's like Rocky, when he punches...
You've got three more minutes.
Enough with the stories.
How many fights he has till now?
How many fights so far?
He had...
Two.
That's pathetic.
But this guy's a miracle!
Trust me Sabina.
You'll earn 5,000 euros a month
without lifting a finger. Hey! 5000.
5000 you say?
Yes 5000.
That will get me half a tire for the car
and a Fendi hijab.
Ok 6000. That is my final offer.
Come on 9000...
There will be nothing left for me?
My kid needs insulin, how am I gonna
explain there won't be any insulin?
I need to change my car,
to be a manager, don't do that to me.
Please, make it 7000?
Sure. 8000.
Ok, fine 8000.
But tell that Albanian of yours
to get us into a match.
So, we will get there, and we will fight,
anywhere, anytime, with anyone.
Anywhere and anytime you say?!
And with anyone?
Yes.
I put my apartment in the ads.
A guy called me, from Temerin.
Beautiful house.
A huge yard,
plenty of trees,
just enough to have something
to do when I retire.
He needs an apartment in the city.
And the club?
You weren't listening to what
I was telling you today.
That's over with.
It's not over.
It's over Peter, dammit!
It is how it is, you have to learn
to forget and move on.
There's no other way.
I'll find a way, it's gonna be fine!
Why don't you answer your phone?
I've got sick of calling you...
I've been calling you, you're unavailable
all day, look at that phone of yours.
I've been at the cemetary.
At the cemetery, now?
I called you five times.
I didn't see, Nika's birthday is today...
Nika? Oh, ok, sorry, my condolences.
Condolences?!
It's not a funeral, it's his birthday?
Well, I'm sorry it's like that...
Hell with it, I forgot my pills...
I was with Sabina...
Listen to this, I've arranged a fight
for you next weekend, huh?
Didn't I tell you
that I have to think about it?
There's nothing to think about!
Sabina and I shook on it!
- You shook hands?
- We did.
Then - you can go in the ring and fight.
And where will you get the money
for that water polo club of yours?
I'll find a way.
You'll find a way?
What are you gonna do, huh!?
Fight in clubs, racketeer people
and rob stores...
Screw you and your entire generation.
I can't believe how Anemic you all are.
You're all Aggressive,
but you have No heart, nor soul.
I believe in you more than
you believe in yourself.
In life, if you want to win,
you have to fight, you know?
And the greatest victory
is defeating yourself.
I'm such a fool, I'm going to call Sabina
and cancel everything...
- OK Zeka, wait...
- Wait for what?
I admit it, you're right.
- Admit what?
- You are right!
What do you mean I'm right?
Is that a yes?
- Yes, I'm in.
- Hell yeah! Here we go!
- Where's the match?
- In Maribor, Slovenia.
That's ok for starters.
It's great! What's wrong with you?
All right...
All right!? All right!?
Don't you 'all right' me,
I need a confirmation dear boy!
Didn't we shake on it 5 seconds ago?
Do you know who Sabina is?
That woman's handling a million deals,
she hasn't been in Serbia for years,
and now she's back, man...
What she normally does
is humanitarian work,
she gives money to the poor
and that's how she earns...
How does she earn
if she gives money to the poor?
Well on interest...
Finish your meal.
I have things to do in the city.
But first have to use the toilet...
And look at this mess...
Come on, train until you drop dead!
Let's go! Come on!
It's good, rest, rest.
There's my brother!
Anderson Silva, brother!
Why are you so early?
I need to do groundwork.
Since when do you do groundwork?
eka set up a fight.
- When?
- In a few days.
The guy is a wrestler,
I need help with groundwork.
Okay, I'll show you.
He won't wrestle
if you knock him out first.
But if I get caught in a clinch?
You won't, you'll be ready,
come on get in...
You do a 100 lunges more
and then you go home!
All of you. And if you lie to me,
you lie to yourself!
Come on now. And we can have Silva ready
for a professional match.
Oh, howdy family, what are you up to?
Please, Maria,
some drinks for my brothers!
Every day we see you is
Independence day.
Hey Bala, why are you so grim?
What did I tell you about that accent?
Why you have to be like this with me?
What is it ekomire, you poor thing?
- What do you want Vaso?
- What's bothering you?
Are you turning old buckets into fighters
again, or perhaps into footballers?
What are you talking about?
You've earned your first money with me!
You wouldn't be a fighter if
I didn't arrange your first fights.
Stop giving me bullshit.
I don't need you, I need Lujo!
What do you need from Lujo?
I'm painting my ceiling.
I need him to hold the ladder for me.
I just need him.
- No way! Why?
- No way!
It's ok Bala, leave him be!
Lujo, safe and sound!
The French say that in order
to be a good chess player...
Yes!?
You can't be a good man.
Quite the opposite.
You need to be evil, to kill.
Listen, Lujo, what I need is...
The older I get, the more I value pawns.
Trust me.
Because when the game is over,
both the pawn and the king
go back to the same box.
You understand?
That's a good one, I'll remember that.
Speak you vagrant.
Here's the thing,
I have a fight In Slovenia in 2 days.
I need 20 000 euros in cash.
- I can't believe the bad luck you have...
- Why?
You should have come this
morning or two hours ago,
I came across this man
begging and I gave him everything.
Lujo, don't pull my leg!
I know all the old tricks.
You know the only thing
I can pledge is my head.
And what am I suppose to do
with your head,
when there's nothing in it? Tell me.
Sabina has aranged this match...
Who? Who?
Sabina, do you know her?
You're in cahoots
with that trollop, Sabina!?
You know...
Bala, give the man
a financial transfusion... For 20.
Thank you, Lujo!
So I don't have to keep looking at him.
Shoo, shoo... go.
20 thousand...
I will see those money back,
Exactly - never.
That's good. It's good.
My son, just keep practicing.
Love you, just practice.
eka didn't you say it
will be a small hall,
with no crowd in the audience,
because Slovenians,
doesn't watch MMA?
Did you told me this?
And look what's out there.
Don't deal with the crowd.
We are in Slovenia, and you're not skiing,
you're fighting. Give me a break.
I'm the only one without a coach.
You don't need a coach
for this fight, Duan is enough.
Guys you have 10 minutes!
We have 5 minutes.
Let them do their thing,
you're in your own head.
You're gonna get in there like
Tyson against Spinks in 88.
- I didn't watch that fight.
- You'll see when you knock him down.
Come on! Come on!
Let's go!
What cheer, we don't have any cheer?
We have a cheer!
Come on "TYSON, TYSON"
One, two, three!
TYSON.
From Novi Sad, Serbia,
the lone wolf
Petar Babic...
MALIIIII...
From Elbasan,
the imperial city,
a mighty tiger
Ilir Krasnici.
Ilir...
Ready?
Ready?
Fight!
That's it! That's it! Move!
Keep your eyes on Mali!
Is this guy an original Albanian, huh?
Let's go!
Let's go!
Don't panic!
Be still!
Get out!
Be still!
Be still!
Hit that bell ref, it's time!
Sit here, sit!
It's good, brother, sit...
It's good, just move,
don't just stand there,
go in pa pa pa, feint,
go in, go out, don't stand still.
Breathe, just breathe normally.
Breathe, you're going to the market,
buying bananas, you're above everything.
And just move, come on!
Ready?
Fight!
All right!
Don't just stand there!
That's it! That's it!
That's right!
Easy, be calm!
That's it! Let him get to you!
The end! It's over!
Well done!
It's over! Over! Mali, it's over!
Let him go!
Did you take it?
Yes... Oh, stand up!
Hi! Hello!
Mr. Beria would like to meet you.
You're not bad,
but you won by chance, are you aware?
Yes, lucky punch.
Yes, but we only had a few
days to prepare.
But we won.
You must have heard about
the tournament in Moldova.
I have a fighter, but I want you instead.
We can arrange that...
That can be done for more money...
Of course...
Just so you know.
You're a good fighter but a bad manager.
Almost as bad as him.
But only he bet on you.
By tomorrow,
let Sabina know what's your decision.
We'll let Sabina know.
If you were a little bit informed,
you would know which tournament
we are talking about.
The money is bigger,
but so are the beatings.
Come on, keep an eye
on your boss, come on!
It's OK.
Wait, did you really bet on me?
I talked him into it!
You talked me into it, come here!
Wait, I'm in pain!
You'll get your cut!
It's yours, you take it...
No, no, what you earn with
your hands is what you get.
Just save that excess for a trainer.
Yeah, you're right about the trainer.
We'll find one.
Let's fix that right away,
Duane, where is Zoran Baulov?
Zoka Baulov is with Todorovi
in Hong Kong, they have a match there.
God damn it. Who else, then?
Wait...
How about Daka?
I've always said it's easier to work
with horses than with people...
Oh brother,
I heard your fighter was
really lucky in Slovenia?
It's called tactics!
The reality is that he had
no idea what he was doing.
I'm telling you, tactics...
If that was your tactic,
you wouldn't come here.
Don't joke around...
Ok, tell me, where's the fire!
I have an important match in Moldova.
I need you to train my fighter,
and we have about twenty days.
Really... Twenty days?
Do you really think I can teach anyone
anything in twenty days?
Come on,
it's just groundwork and wrestling.
Yes, of course, "just" wrestling.
To be a millionaire,
you just need to rob a bank.
He needs at least a year for that.
So, nothing!
Nothnig!
Daka, I would be in your debt forever
if you took him under your wing.
He doesn't need me, he needs a wizard.
Do you have anyone in the police?
Of course, I have everything you need!
There is a man, but to get to him
you'll need a solid police contact.
And even if you find him,
he's not always in a good mood...
His name is Vladan Basta...
Who is he?
The guy is out of sports,
but that's what you need right now.
A long-time mercenary, a soldier,
not to say hitman,
operating from Iraq to Kiseljak...
Get out of here... I don't need that...
Take it with a grain of salt,
I'm telling you what's best for you.
That's your only solution.
Hey kid, buy some Smoki.
Hey bro, are you lonely?
Hm?
I see you keep looking at our table,
I know we're pretty, but still...
Buddy, go have some fun!
Listen, I do what I want, capish?
I'm asking if you want to...
There are hot chicks there, want a drink?
We understood each other.
You can light a smoke,
whatever you want,
just refer it to me,
I see you've got a problem.
Is every think OK?
Everything's fine,
If there's a problem, just say Kosta.
Take it easy buddy!
Everything's OK.
Just say Kosta Tarla.
I saw you speaking with Kosta.
I hope he didn't give you any trouble.
What are you ding with those rednecks?
That's my business, isn't it?
I'm Jovana!
Mali (kid).
Your name is Mali?
They call me Mali, my name is Petar...
OK Petar, here you go.
But I don't have...
I know you don't have a business card,
this is for you to call me...
At least that's how it should be.
Listen Mali, I got us Basta!
How?
I have my methods.
The less you know the better!
Tell me how?
We do a match and we have him.
- Where?
- The match is in Srem.
In Srem?
Yes, in Srem?
No, it's in Pinosava...
Stop fooling around.
OK.
What is this?
UFC, MMA, you shit yourselves
when the cops arrive?
Come on, get in!
What is this?
Get in!
Are we getting lucky or what?
We can arrange for that as well!
- Are you kidding?
- What do you want?
You enter like gentlemen.
I used to be thrown in headfirst.
Close it!
Don't close it!
Don't close it!
OK, boys. Here we are...
What is this place?
It's Srem.
You brought me to prison.
Fights have been organised here for
the last seven or eight years.
It's all legal and here we fight.
That's all.
OK, who am I fighting?
A karate fighter.
He doesn't know any groundwork.
You've got this!
A little bit of Van Dam and you're done!
Van Dam is a ballet dancer.
His mum was a ballerina.
His mum, huh?
A bit of Rambo then!
Rambo's got a Machine gun.
Wait, can you say Rambo?
What?
Say Rambo?
- Rambo?
- What?
Now say Rocky!
You can suck my cocky?
No, no, come on say Rocky,
- Rocky?
- I'm not Rocky, I'm Rambo!
I can't listen to you anymore...
I'm trying to cheer you up,
why are you so stiff?
Welcome, boys!
Hello!
What's up, Rambo?
Nistor, Nistor...
- Karate fighter, huh?
- Yes.
- He doesn't know any wrestling?
- That's right.
So where did he get those ears? Rugby?
Come on, this is not a quiz! Fight!
Let's go! Let's go!
Take it easy!
Let's go! Let's go!
Move!
That's it!
Bravo!
Hold it!
He doesn't know!
All right, let's go! Come on!
Here's the address.
Thank you!
I'll be expecting your call.
But I've told you everything I know.
Oh, come on, friends always have
something to tell each other.
You're an old snitch.
You know what?
Compared to all the assholes in the world,
I'm not that bad.
Get in there! Make him suffer!
Come on, Mali!
All right! That's it!
All right, Mali!
So, did you win a medal?
No, it wasn't that kind of fight?
What kind of fight was it?
I got the contact of a trainer.
What kind of contact is one you fight for?
I hope it's a worthy kind.
I hope the fights are not like in
the movies, prison and criminal fights.
They're not.
Is there a mafia involved?
Mafia is everywhere nowadays.
From football to farming.
But there are good people too.
For example, they tell you to fix a fight
so you'd get more money, would you do it?
Depends.
What does it depend on?
Are you in debt?
Sort of.
You're very mysterious.
Can I ask you something?
Ask away!
Would your bank be interested
in sponsoring a club?
I don't understand? What do you mean?
A water polo club in town is about
to close, we need money urgently.
I saw that your bank sponsors such things.
Wait, I don't understand.
Are you a water polo player or a fighter.
I'm a fighter.
I used to play water polo as a kid.
A long time ago.
Did you ask me out
because of the sponsorship?
No, of course not!
But I did mean to ask you that.
You can get the answer
in any of our branches.
You hand in the papers,
submit the request
and wait for them to tell you
'Yes or 'No'.
Check please!
I'm sorry about earlier.
It all came out stupid and confusing.
"I woud like to make it up to you.
Please, call me."
I'm sorry about earlier.
It all came out stupid and confusing.
I woud like to make it up to you.
To the left, huh?
I'm telling you turn right!
Right! Pull over here.
Here?
That's what the navigation says.
Supid phone!
Dear God, where does this guy live,
it's easier to find water in the desert.
Well, the navigation says it's here.
Is that inspector who gave
you the address reliable?
He's reliable, I know him.
Ma'm!
Excuse me, does Vladan Basta live here?
I don't talk to cops!
Who's a cop?!
They think you're a cop!
Me, a cop? You're the cop!
Look what you're wearing!
Me? You hang out with cops,
and you slick your hair back like a cop.
Excuse me,
do you know where Vladan Basta lives?
I don't talk to cops.
What did I tell you?
Alright, does anyone know
where Vladan Basta lives?
What do you want with Basta?
If you could contact him, we need him
as a trainer, we're doing a match.
He is not interested.
You just introduce me to him,
and we'll see if he's interested or not.
Trust me, he's not!
Basta?
Listen, as for our relationship,
no one will know...
Sit's taken.
What?
I'll pay for everything,
whatever you need...
I need help.
I have a match in 20 days.
If I lose, I'm finished.
You don't say.
I don't care about whores or fast cars.
I'm fighting for a higher purpose.
A higher purpose?
Good for you.
The boy is serious!
Boys, the door is over there.
What?
Good for you, Basta.
Let's go.
Listen to him.
He won't do it. We'll find someone else.
I'm not begging anyone.
He was removing the sticker and
ruined the foil on the inside.
You're still here?!
We're here.
I'm telling you, I need your help.
I don't train fighters anymore.
- Mali, let him go!
- Basta!
Let him go, he won't do it.
eka, you can go!
He won't do it!
He's nuts from all that caffein.
What are you doing?
Waiting for you.
Didn't I tell you I'm not gonna train you?
Give me one good reason to do it?
I'm afraid.
Alright, get ready. We're starting.
Now?
Not now, you fool. Tomorrow, at 7am.
This is the address where I train.
How much money should I get?
Whatever you say!
I've got money. Go sleep.
So, this is where you train.
Yes.
I've seen the match in Slovenia.
Do you know why you lost the first round?
Because of wrestling.
Alright, let's begin.
Put these on and take them off 50 times,
without holding onto anything.
Understood?
That's easy.
We won't be training here, over there!
Come on! Don't stop!
A bit faster, faster, faster.
Come on!
- Easy, huh?
- I did everything you said.
Take those sneakers off, put them on
and tie the shoelaces 50 times more.
When you're done, go straight to sleep!
Training lasts until 9.
From 9 to 11 you do whatever you want.
At 11 I want you in bed.
In the morning, training starts at
7 and lasts until 9.
Two training sessions are enough.
In the morning, we'll work on
strength and endurance,
and in the evening, we'll work on
technique and concentration.
Continue with putting on the sneakers,
the training isn't over.
Put the box there, I'll take this.
We need to celebrate, baby!
- Celebrate what?
- They've just let me know!
We're going to Budapest!
Who's going to Budapest?
You and me, you idiot.
Told you what?
I got us a contract.
Sharks from Budapest.
One year. And if we stand out,
they'll extend it for sure.
Nobody called me.
They called me, but I insisted that
we go together.
- No, no way!
- What are you talking about?
No, I feel stupid.
You're going and that's final!
We're going to Pest!
All right, I think that's it.
I love this building more than the club!
You know you were like a second son to us.
Stop by Temerin these days!
I will, and I'll bring money too.
I have the money for one month's rent.
I inquired about loans
and sponsorships as well.
Forget about the money.
Spend it on a girl.
No, no...
Petar,
listen to me carefully.
It was not your fault.
It was destined to happen.
It was my fault.
It's not! Stop living in the past.
Nika was my son,
but I must keep on living.
I just have to.
You also have to, son.
You must let him go once and for all.
Don't do this to yourself.
And don't blame Budapest.
You two would have caused trouble even
in Beoin, let alone somewhere else.
The club was doomed anyway.
No-one cares about water polo anymore.
The stands were full of girls,
just because of you guys.
If you need anything let me know.
I'll see you.
European Championship Waterpolo,
First Place, Belgrade 2006
You're late.
I'm three minutes late.
That's why you're gonna run
for three hours.
Three hours be a cause of three minutes?
Yes, yes.
Where are you going?
- To change.
- No, no, you're running like that.
In shoes and jeans?
Don't look at me, I didn't dress you.
Leave the backpack.
I'm really gonna run like this?
The outside lane!
Wait a second.
Do you have an invitation?
- What?
- Tonight is by invitation only.
Welcome, good evening!
What invitations?
Tell Ilida, Kosta Tarla is here.
Buddy, do you have invitations?
Same invitations they have.
They're on the list.
Oh, there's a list too?
Every club has a list!
- Kosta Tarla isn't on the list?
- See for yourself.
The famous Kosta Tarla isn't on our list.
Looks like it.
Alright guys.
You can explain to Ilida why
he's 1000 euros short tonight.
Please, make some room.
Maybe I should call him,
what do you think?
I'm going to call him now.
And I'm going to ruin you.
Come on, we'll talk in the car.
What? Jovana!
- What's wrong with you?
- Where's your boyfriend?
- I asked you a question.
- Did you send him to bed?
Shame on you.
Wait Jovana! Wait!
I have been calling you, writing...
I want to make up for everything.
How?
I don't know, I'll think of something.
I just need some time.
I'm going to a tournament in Moldova,
so when I come back.
You want to make up for it,
but you don't know how...
Now you're going to Moldova.
Yes.
Moldova?
Yes, that's where the tournament is.
Man, she's into me, trust me.
Yeah, yeah...
Boss, they called me from Maribor.
The Albanian wants to send
two fighters to the tournament.
What did you tell them?
I said they were welcome.
Although he fooled us in Sydney.
Let them come.
We will return them in coffins!
Give them the best hotel,
the best promotion,
the highest bettings,
and the best women.
Seriously?
And the worst opponents!
Boss, we have a beast for them.
Let's thank the fighters.
From Novi Sad, Serbia
Duan, The Great!
Ladies and gentlemen,
his weight is 89 kg.
Bravo, Duki.
Look at him, chewing gum.
I'm going to the cocktail party
to mingle and see who's there.
You and Dule go rest. Is that clear?
Clear.
- Don't you 'Clear' me.
- What do you want me to say?
I want you to go rest,
no partying tonight.
I want strong focus tomorrow.
See how big that Moldovan is?
I'll tell him, but he's not a kid.
He's not. There's only one kid (Mali)!
I'll go to the room and
study my opponent.
That's right, study,
since you didn't study at school!
See that! Please look after him.
After you.
It doesn't work...
Later will talk.
Goodbye.
Moldavia is a beautiful country.
Sorry, are you finished?
Personally, Flemish.
My name is eka.
I'm a manager from South Europe.
Oh, Southern Europe?
Where from? Italy, Spain, Lisbon?
No, no, another country.
Serbia, Croatia,
Bosnia, Montenegro, Albania...
Oh, nice. I'm Inge!
Nice to meet you.
- Sorry, Inge Van Gorp?
- Yes?
You have United Sports Group?
Yes!
You know everything already!
I'm a lucky man!
You have fighters here or
you're just here for the bets?
Yes I have a fighter here, he is the best.
He is in the light heavyweight category.
His name is Mali. He's like Peter Aerts.
Yes, of course!
We also have a fighter
in the light heavyweight category
from Guadalajara Mexico.
He is very good.
And I bet your fighter won't stand for
three seconds in the final with him.
We will see.
The fights here in Chiinu
are very easy for us.
Inge!
Tell me.
What if we win in this match?
If you win we can have a meeting
about a contract in our company.
We can even hire a private jet.
But, but...
Dream on, Southern Europe.
And a private room?
Southern Europe!
What's the Czech like?
He's good, he's a kick boxer.
But also serious in the groundwork.
He's built like a news stand.
Where are you going?
I'm going to do some groundwork
with that hostess.
Are you serious,
you have a match tomorrow.
Okay, so what?
I'm gonna fight and
let the chips fall where they may.
Wanna come with me?
No, stay, get some sleep.
Come with me?
Let's strengthen our bond.
No, I'm gonna watch this
and go to sleep.
An I'm... just great.
Love you, bro!
Don't stay late,
eka is gonna rattle my chains tomorrow.
Evgenia, nice to see you.
You look fantastic.
We will go inside together?
Good evening, Chiinu!
Good evening, Moldova!
Do you know why our tournament
is the most special?
Because here the crowd
doesn't come to watch you fall.
They come to watch you get up!
I wish you all a successful final,
but also a merciless fight!
We must not be bored!
Long live Moldova!
Fighters, come!
Fighters, you know the rules.
Protect yourself at all times.
Now touch gloves.
To your corners!
Ready?
Ready?
Fight!
Keep your distance!
Get away from him.
That's it!
Close the distance!
Get away, get out!
Keep moving. He's getting tired.
Stop!
No cardio, tease him.
Tease him, let him move.
Wait for him and punch.
Ready?
Ready? Fight!
All right, that's it!
Don't stare at people. Watch the ring.
Watch the fight!
- We're watching.
- What's with the gum?
Chewing gum is good for the focus.
Boss...
The Serbian, that Florian sent...
He won.
Gheorghe is fighting soon
with the other one.
I want to send a message to Florian.
Let Gheorghe do what he needs to do.
This is a chance to prove himself.
Yes, boss.
Make it a very clear message.
Especially in the final
with the other Serb.
How is my arrogant daughter's
tournament going?
Everything is perfect.
We're waiting for Ursu'
to follow his instinct.
Ready?
Ready?
Fight!
Lift your guard.
There you go. Avoid him.
- Good. Bravo.
- That's good, a?
Attack. Hit him.
Destroy him! Do it, now!
Kill him, Ursu. Come on.
End it, reff!
Can you hear me? Duki, Duki...
- Medic...
- Come on!
What round is it?
I'm here, brother.
INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENIN MOLDOVA
Petar Babi Mali
defeated the Czech fighter.
Hey, what's up?
How is he?
He's fine, he's got a
concussion from the fall.
He's in the right hands,
don't worry about anything.
I bring him to the tournament in Moldova,
I pawn my ass, ready to lose face.
And how does repay me?
Chasing girls, right?
He has a concussion but he's fine.
Tell me honestly what's wrong with him.
Please, I don't wanna lose you too.
Focus on the match, in two hours
is the final with the Mexican.
Think about him, not about Duan.
And eat up, stop dragging around
like a student in the canteen.
I got the food two minutes ago!
I'll call you back, I'm in roaming.
Just give me the heel of the bread,
to soak up the stomach acid, please.
Don't give me the whole thing.
Okay, give it here.
Hell with it.
From Mexico,
world champion Luis Fernandez
Mexico, Mexico...
- Stop worrying about it.
- Who's worried?
You look worried.
Ready?
Ready?
Fight!
Stop! Time!
You're as stiff as a piece of wood.
What did I paid you for?
To be touched or to fight?
You didn't even pay me!
I'll pay you now!
Yes, pay me now!
Get serious, people are watching.
Don't look at him, just punch him,
why are you looking at him.
And please remember, it is not strength
that wins, but intelligence.
Buzz off eka, you know nothing.
Watch out for those high kicks!
Ready? Ready? Fight!
Stop!
What are you doing?
Hold this!
You don't wanna fight?
Do you want me to fight him?
Do you want me to get in
the ring and fight him?
He's laughing at you.
He finished Duan
and now he's laughing at you.
That's what you're doing.
For God's sake.
If you want to die, please, die in battle!
Come on, coaches!
Please!
Ready! Ready! Last round. Fight!
You've got him now, pull!
Stop!
Time! To your corners!
Three seconds,
just three more seconds...
The winner is, the one and only,
Luis Fernandez from Mexico.
Did you see that? We were three seconds
short of winning the gold.
Thank you for calling.
Your fight was the most watched in Europe!
Do you know what that means?
How is Duan?
Duan is fine. He'll get one last IV and
he's going home with us in the morning.
I hate this bloody sport...
Bloody sport, you say, but what do I
tell you all the time?!
For this sport,
it's not enough only to have it here...
You have to have it also... here.
What's wrong with you now?
Nothing, I just need Duki to be OK.
Duki will be fine.
Let me see your eye.
Jeez, put your hand back.
He really wrecked me, everything hurts.
Thank you.
The way he hit you,
it doesn't surprise me.
Fuck it brother.
Great.
If you had slept the night before...
I know brother. It is how it is.
But the fight was good.
Want some?
I can't chew.
How do you chew gum?
I just hold it in my mouth.
What did the doctor say?
You can't fight for a year?
Yeah, a year...
Screw it. I will work
at the door for Ilida in the club.
That awaits all of us.
God's will...
Thanks for coming.
Are you kidding?!
It means a lot.
You're my brother.
I just need you to be fine.
I'll be OK.
These tangerines are awful.
"PETAR BABI LOST IN THE FINALS BUT WON
OVER THE AUDIENCE IN MOLDOVA!"
I prefer the warehouse in Eka,
it's closer to our location...
Oh, doll! Where have you been?
Hello, guys.
Water, huh?
It's healthy.
I forgot the taste of water.
Come here.
I have something age appropriate.
What is it?
Look!
What am I looking at?
How many sheep are there?
I have no idea.
Focus.
How many sheep?
Ten?
Focus!
Do you know why Duan lost the match?
Focus?
And why were you a bit short of winning?
Because of focus.
Well done, genius.
You were thinking about
his opponent, not yours.
Next time I see him,
I will make his mother cry.
You'll make his mother cry,
IF you ever meet him.
In order to meet him you must win.
If there isn't a match or money soon,
I'll quit this sport.
That's your problem.
Here, read something.
There are ten sheep!
Where's the money?
They are not in here. Not in the barrel.
- Why don't take another look?!
- Don't.
Where's the money?
- Please don't.
- Where's the money?
Stop already!
Can't you see I'm out of breath.
The money's under the seat!
It's all here.
Next time you try to gamble
with our money,
you'll go diving wearing concrete boots.
There's no need for that.
Let's go.
See you...
You have two hours to finish that.
Let's go!
I see you're dry.
Why did you sell me out
to the Montenegrins?
You are way too emotional.
It's just business.
If it's just business,
help me get back on my feet.
You have a nose for good fighters,
but at everything else you're a dummy.
I trust people.
However, I have something for you.
I need you to rat on someone
to your friend, the inspector.
Related to an auction.
Rat on who?
I'll tell you. I just have some
business in Pazar.
Sabina my dear, if I do that, I'm dead.
Life is short, eka.
So you decided to shorten it
for another ten years.
Get this done and
I'll get you into Megdan.
Otherwise, you won't enter
any serious tournament.
You see, those friends of yours,
always end up kissing the floor.
Come on, hurry up!
Me and my luck...
I thought you were a fighter,
but you go to evening school.
Where did you come from?
I came to see where you train.
You came to see the gym?
And you.
Just to see me?
Just that?
I want to show you something.
This is the pool where I used to train.
I spent half my life here.
The first time I came with my family.
After some time my mom died,
I lost my father shortly after,
so the coach and the founder of
the club accepted me as a son.
It's really nice here.
I still don't understand
why you switched to fighting.
I just couldn't play water polo anymore.
Why?
You don't have to tell me
if you don't want to.
That coach, his son is my best friend.
We grew up together, trained together,
we were inseparable.
In 2016, there was a situation
in Budapest.
I started a fight
in which he lost his life.
After that I couldn't enter
the pool for years.
I understand.
But why the fights?
People say it's some kind of anger
buried inside me.
But the truth is that I can't do
anything else.
Knowing how to fight and play water polo,
is not exactly a job recommendation.
It's not like that.
What's it like then?
I wouldn't be with you
if that was the case.
I know there's something more.
Will you help me save the club?
I will.
I'm still not sure whether you like me,
or have a hidden agenda.
You're not sure?
And you never will be.
Hey, what's up guys?
How are you Mali, Duki?
Ilida, you legend!
Listen people, eka has good news.
When you hear this, Ilida,
you'll open a crate of champagne.
So it's not prostate cancer?
God forbid!
Mali, come here, come to eka.
What would you do without eka?
Where did you get the glasses?
Evgenia gave them to me.
It's fashionable in Moldova.
Listen to me now!
Tell me?
We're fighting on Megdan!
You understand?
Radakovi is injured and now you're
fighting for the championship belt.
And the match is in three weeks!
I know it's in three weeks,
but I can't do it!
Why?
No way, I told you about short notice.
They agree.
The Moldovans insisted on you
being the replacement.
Well, if the Moldovans insisted...
It's a fight for the belt, man.
Wait, you didn't hear
who your opponent is.
Who is it?
I think you'll find this inter sting!
Who is it?
Gheorghe Ursu!
Brother!
- I'm in.
- You're in?
We're in! Ilida let's go drink!
Maja, climb that pole right away!
We must take him too!
32 laps!
You're lying?
I'm not lying, I'm dead.
I wanted to ask about Megdan,
is there any chance of me winning.
Focus.
Wait, Mali.
I'm going away,
I won't be here for some time.
What are you talking about?
What am I gonna do without you?
You don't need me anymore.
Come on Basta, what are you saying?
Pages 43 to 56 are
all you need for Megdan.
You can read the rest, it may be useful.
Or not...
Wait Basta?
So, I can bring my friends,
you won't embarrass us?
I don't know, and I don't know
how smart it is to fight...
What happened?
I don't have a trainer.
He said I was ready, that I didn't
need him anymore, and he left.
Well, I think he's right.
You know how people come to
fights to see someone fall?
In this, people will come
to see you Stand!
You think?
I know it!
It is going to be the greatest
birthday ever.
- When is your birthday?
- Then, on Saturday.
I have to win, then!
You have to!
For Boyko!
Face to face guys!
Thank you, guys!
That's it, Mali.
The weighing is over.
Tonight, we have a special guest.
A guest of honour.
K1 champion of the world,
The Flying Gentleman,
Mr. Remy Bonjasky!
Remy, thank you for coming to Serbia!
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much Balkan.
Thank you, guys!
What you think about the next fight?
I think we're gonna see some blood.
It's gonna be a great fight.
I'm looking forward to that!
Does Mali have a chance?
In every fight there is a chance,
so he will stand a chance!
Thank you for coming!
REMY BONJASKY!
This prostate is killing me.
What a nightmare.
edo!
eka, my brother!
You kicked ass!
Here's Mali!
Pero, I've seen your fight in Moldova.
You were great.
Thank you!
It means a lot coming from you!
Do you know what was Caesar's
only unfulfilled dream?
No?
To be a gladiator!
Come on, warm up!
Thank you brothers!
Hold on.
You've come a long way, you sissy.
Congrats!
Brother!
Don't do it!
I Don't need pathetic laments.
I know...
It's your fault,
you should have listened to me.
So?
How many times I screw up, and you
saved my sorry ass?
Forget it. It was God's will.
Why wasn't God's will to take me?
I fight every day...
What are you saying?
Hello, Mali!
Stop using that night as an excuse
for failures and missed opportunities.
You don't wanna live anymore?
So, jump off a bridge!
Or you get on that ring and you make
this jackass pay!
Take control over your own life.
I pray for you every day.
I know.
Two more minutes.
In the third main fight of the evening,
in the fight for the "Megdan" belt,
the blue corner from Chiinu,
the favorite in "Soccer bet"
Gheorghe Ursu!
In the red corner, for the first time at
"Megdan" from Novi Sad,
former water polo player
with over five MMA fights,
ladies and gentlemen Petar Babi Mali!
The referee in the ring, Dejan Tei.
eka!
Yes, Vaso!
Look at this poor guy!
YOU DIDN'T COME, AGAIN!
This Bear is gonna bury him
in front of everyone.
It's not you, who's getting beat up.
So relax and take it easy.
Let's go, Mali! Let's go!
Ready? Ready? Fight!
Come on, hit him first!
Get in first.
That's it, lift your hands.
Don't chase him.
Let him come to you.
Tuck in the elbows!
Get out!
Let him come!
That's it, get out!
Arms up!
Don't chase him, man.
Come on, ref. Pay attention, will you?
Lift your arms!
Tuck in your elbows!
That's right, counterattack!
Tuck in the elbows!
Enough! Enough!
We are here with the founder of
Megdan Aleksa Balaevi.
Remy what do you think
about the first round?
It seems like Ursu is so much
more experienced than Mali.
Well, he is.
It's so hard to predict the outcome of
this fight, its like a game of roulette.
Don't chase him! Let him get tired!
He's stronger.
Let him get tired, listen to me.
Give him water.
I know, you saw... I went in...
Move, don't fight.
Breathe through your mouth,
mouth than nose.
You wait for him, and then you
Surprise him with a hit.
Santa on 1st of May is not going
to surprise him...
Keep breathing and stay away from him.
You hear me? Breathe.
Breathe, he's gonna breathe later!
Let him fight now, for Christ's sake.
Ready? Ready? Fight!
Wait for him!
Out! Get your hand out!
Get out somehow, get out!
Over your head! Get your hand out!
Lift your arms, Mali!
Don't let him go! He's finished!
Hold it, hold it!
Don't let him go!
That's it!
You've got him now. Hit him!
Let him get tired, that's it!
Come on, now!
Don't chase him!
God damn it. He's screwed.
Hold it.
Hold on, Mali!
Basta?!
Leave it.
He's choking him!
Stop!
Basta has arrived, bring him here.
Basta!
You have enough strength
for three flying knees! Listen to me now.
When I say 'Now' you kick him like this.
No sooner, no later, did you hear me?
I heard.
Focus!
Give me water.
Give you water?! I'm not your waiter.
And all they say is: Breathe, Breathe...
Let's go, brother!
Breathe, he kept saying that!
You have another round, come on!
It's good you're here, you know!
Now!
Now!
Now!
That's it!
That's right!
How about that Remy?
It seems like he learned that stuff
from you, The Flying Gentleman.
I think he saw all my videos
about the jumping knee.
What a great fight,
what a great knockout!
What a crazy fight.
The winner Petar Babi Malii
Happy Birthday!
So, what have you decided?
- Decided about what?
- About the fight, the match?
Where's your gum?
My filling fell out!
It's weird! He's talking without
a gum for the first time.
I must go to the dentist.
Where is eka?
Zeka is probably working on
a scheme somewhere...
Son!
Daddy!
My love!
Look what I bought you.
Look, it's a violin my darling.
But daddy I play football.
Football, didn't you say violin.
Come on darling, we'll be late.
Wait Maja, how come
I don't know anything about my son?
You haven't known
anything for a long time.
Come on, son.
Maja!
Who is this?
Yes?
Greetings from Moldova!
Do you feel like going to Tokyo?
It's time to sit at a bigger table.
