I'm fresh out the corner store
Now I'm comin' at ya
Fleein' with the smoke
Should I release the pressure
Comin' with a TKO
Hittin' n*gg*s up since nine years old
I'm hood...
Oh!
Hey, boy. You want some more?
What'd you just say?
I said, hey, boy, you want some more?
What the hell you just call me?
Come on.
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten
That... was a good fight!
But as we all know, there can only be one.
And that is...
Sean the Flash Jacobs!
That's right. Sean.
Where's my money at?
Don't worry. I got your money. Alright.
- Oh, me?
- Yeah.
Yeah. I'm proud of you.
Clap, clap. Tap, tap.
- Woo!
- What the hell is this?
- That's your money. $20.
- The bet was 200.
I know what the bet
was, but I got other bills
- and stuff to pay. Go on.
- I do too.
Hey!
- Go somewhere.
- You know what?
I'll let you slide.
Just cause you're my uncle, you know?
- Don't make this sh*t a habit.
- Did you just cuss?
You don't make it a
habit to talk to me like that.
I give you. I give you what I give you.
- That's what you need.
- You know?
There you go, big bro. You
know what I'm talkin' about?
Woo! Pretty boy can't
lose for nothing, huh?
You know what I do?
You know I gotta keep the hustle.
- I gotta take care of my family.
- You know that's true, brother.
Go ahead with yourself.
Family man. Look at this boy.
Wait wait wait wait wait.
No "hi, hello."
"I'm proud of you."
You're not happy at all?
Yeah. Hi. You told me
you were done with this.
Sean.
Did you not hear that?
Tell me that's not crazy.
Yeah. It is.
It is. But you said. You said...
I know, but I gotta make
money somehow for my mom.
Come on, you know that, V.
Okay. Yeah. Then get a real job.
What kind of real job is going
to pay for my mom's treatments?
Are you for real?
You, of all people know I
don't want to have to go back
in the streets and hustle
that way, because I can.
Oh, I know.
Which is why I don't understand
why you continue to do so.
This is hustling to you?
Yeah.
- It is.
- Look... Listen to me.
One day I'm gonna go
pro. You can tell that, right?
I won't have to hustle
anymore. Okay, we'll be good.
Yeah.
Like your father's pro career.
You see how that turned out?
Don't do that.
Don't do that to me.
I'm nothing like that n*gga.
I would never leave my family.
That's why I hustle so hard.
So I can take care of my mom and Tony.
Who else you know doing that?
Why aren't you always telling
me that you want a big family?
You want, like, three, four kids?
Don't you need someone
to take care of you, too?
- Yeah, I. Know.
- Hoping that's me, right?
Yeah.
No. It is. Yeah.
What are we talking about?
Look, I. I love you, and I don't want
to see you get hurt hustling.
And then you mess up your dreams to go pro
and it just all gets messed up.
I love you, too. I'm not gonna get hurt.
I know what I'm doing.
Okay. You trust me?
Yeah, I trust.
Okay. Come on.
I'm knew what he was
gonna do. When he hit me.
It didn't. It didn't hurt.
You know what I'm saying?
It just caught me off guard.
That's why I got up so fast.
But when he start, come with that.
- n*gga, what?
- That's what you.
My brother, man, all the
ladies was coming up to me.
Hey! Who's that?
That's my fam.
- You tell him that?
- Family.
Knew the uppercut was
wide open the entire time.
You thought I was gonna lose you call me.
He called me boy. Can you believe.
That's true, you knocked him out.
- Five hundred.
- Boy, that's why you come.
Because every time you bet on me,
we make... understand what I'm saying.
Just keep betting on me.
- That's all I'm saying.
- Mom, we're home.
Come. In here, boys.
Hey, babies. How was school?
Mom. It's Saturday.
We don't have school.
Sorry, baby. Got my days all mixed up.
Come.
Night.
- Love you.
- Love you.
I broke do my homework, please.
It's okay baby. You can come in.
- You don't gotta be afraid.
- Mom, I'm not afraid.
I just really don't like
seeing you this way.
Come... Come here.
Okay. How you feeling?
Good.
So did you talk to your
brother like I asked you?
I haven't gotten a chance to, but I will.
I promise I will.
Sean. He has to know what's going on.
I don't want anything to
come as a surprise to him.
I know, I know, but no offense, mom.
Tony's 11. He understands.
He understands what
a sick person looks like.
He knows the possibility of you...
He's a smart kid.
He just doesn't want you to know he knows.
I know.
Both my babies are smart, strong young men.
You, Sean. You're special.
You're gonna grow up
be a doctor or a lawyer.
And change the world.
That's right.
And what What happened to your face?
That Billy Thompson hit you again?
Billy Thompson was in my fifth grade class.
He hasn't fought me in years.
Well, if he'd do it again, let me know.
I'll give his mom a piece of my mind.
I know you will.
I can take care of myself now. You hear me.
I'm taking care of you
and telling you it's okay.
- I got it.
- You're just like your father.
He can take care of himself, too.
What a fighter he was.
Would have been the best in all the world.
Son.
There's nothing you
can't do if you work hard.
Put your mind to it. The sky is the limit.
You can be what your father never was.
Okay.
You think I could be better
than Mike and Floyd, too.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah. Much better.
- Much better.
- Much better.
I don't wanna be like them.
I think the strongest
fighter I know is you.
Because you don't ever quit.
You never quit. That's
why I don't want to quit.
Boys in blue trying to stop me.
Am I pulling over?
Nope.
Oh sh*t, come on. Come on, baby, come on.
Really?
Hey.
- Sean?
- Greg.
Why'd you make us chase you this far?
- No. It wasn't me.
- Get out of the car.
It was my cousin, I
promise. She went that way.
Uh, Your Honor, if I could
be honest, I've always
been an outstanding citizen.
I'm a big supporter of this
community, and I've been and
advocate for the homeless
people in this town for a couple
of years since I've been here.
Also, before I got here, I
was an upstanding citizen
in Compton, California, where I helped tons
of kids get off the streets.
Last night I lost my job, and I
also won a lot of money, and I
got intoxicated and I put myself
in a position to end up here.
Now, my good friend Greg
over here, just doing his job
when he brought me in.
But I'm asking for a
chance to make this right.
So, please, Your
Honor, I cannot go to jail.
Mr. Jacobs, I'm familiar with
your past accomplishments,
as well as all the work
you've done for Compton
and all of Los Angeles.
To be transparent, I'm
actually a big fan of your
boxing career. 20 and 0.
It's an incredible record.
I don't know why you stopped
because you were great at it.
I appreciate that honor. Thank you.
What I know to be true is that
I think you're a good person.
And this was clearly a mistake.
So I'm willing to let you off
with 80 hours of community
service time served.
However, there will be
a probationary period.
And if you violate that,
you will see jail time.
Am I clear?
Is 80 hours good? We can negotiate further?
Crystal.
Man involved in the back.
Don't talk to nobody
I'm gonna talk to Chuck.
Alright.
Six? Come on.
What's up bro?
Y'all wanted to talk to you
real quick before we start.
That's cool.
Hi. Hey.
Finish these last sets. All right.
Seven more offers, young blood.
Hey. Ten more right over there, boy.
Ten more. We don't stop up in here.
Make sure you get that
buzzer and switch off the shaft.
Take a seat.
- Oh. sh*t.
- What's on your mind.
G?
Let me get right to the point, man.
- Okay.
- Straight up.
Um, I know you've been
taking money from my fights
without me knowing.
Who telling you this sh*t?
What you mean who's
telling me that's not important?
What's important is is I'm
not gonna fight for you no more
unless you give me all the money
you shaved off top and agree
to a 80/20 split my way.
What do you. Think taught your a*s
how to box when your little no good a*s
daddy wasn't around, huh?
I know, and I appreciate that for real.
But, I mean, that was
a long time ago, right?
And I've been doing real good right now.
And I know that I could
take my talent to other people
straight up, but I'm.
I'm loyal to the soil.
You feel me? And you...
You really helped out
me and my family and I.
And I appreciate that.
But I can't keep letting you cheat.
Men cheat me out of money.
Like I'm just some little kid.
I'm not the same little kid
that you met ten years ago.
You know what I'm saying?
I know what I'm worth.
- You know your worth.
- Yeah.
So when I got to come to
this gym at three in the morning
because your a*s is stressed out
and you need somewhere to train
or your a*s got anxiety attacks
you, you can't get rid of them.
This sh*t ain't free, boy.
I understand that, but
you understand that it's not
free trying to take care
of a sick mother, right?
With cancer being a minor now.
But I feel you, though, you know.
But you do realize I'm bringing
in business, especially money.
I'm bringing all that in.
I'm not just some buster
hitting the speed bag trying
to talk about Vince.
Let me get an autograph.
Who is filling your head with this sh*t.
Jimmy and Hank been telling me a lot.
God damn it, Jimmy and f*cking Hank.
Two crooks who got you dealing
with these snakes anyway, huh?
Take one to know one big
time. What, you mean snakes?
You sitting here taking money
from me, talking about snakes?
I'm gonna put it just like this.
It's you. Either take the deal or I'm out.
I'm gone. Respectfully.
With Jimmy and Hank.
Exactly what Jimmy and Hank.
Hank promised that he can get me
three times the amount of
money you get me for the fights,
and he agreed to an 80/20
split, even if Jimmy not in it.
Well, you like a son
to me, so I respect that.
But I ain't letting you off that easy.
What you mean?
What I mean is you gonna
have to spar against Vince.
And if you win fair and
square, sh*t you out.
You don't owe me nothing.
I don't owe you nothing.
But if you lose, I still let you out.
But just know.
Every fight you take,
I'll be taking a cut from it.
Are you serious?
You want me to spar with Vince?
Vince is a pro. This ain't funny.
He's got three titles. I ain't got none.
He taught me everything I know.
He knows every move
I'm gonna do before I do it.
How is that even fair?
You gonna do me like that?
Sounds like that's a you problem.
You got this, Sean.
He knows all your moves,
but you know all his.
I don't know all his moves.
He knows all my moves.
He taught me.
That's why it's unfair. O'Neil did this.
Be unpredictable.
Don't let him know your next move.
You got this.
Oh, no. Don't record this.
- No promises.
- No, no.
Go ahead, get it
- Come on bro.
- Hold that for him, Jones.
n*gg*s fin to get
their sh*t split right now
Remember unpredictable.
I'm a misfit right now
Ay, you know what I told you.
You're on that.
Oh, boy. Come on, man.
Nobody got all time for all that.
Y'all wanted Hank here, right?
n*gg*s take a shot
Know he sh**t back
Click clack, don't try
to duck dat, one up dat
Yeah. Junior. Come
on. I know you felt that.
Come on, Sean. Unpredictable.
Don't let him know your next move.
Boy, we know all his moves. Boy!
- We know all his moves.
- Predict his moves.
Don't let him get yours.
Boy, we've been predicting all that.
I don't know what you're
talking about, little Tom.
Go run up, run up.
Run up. Nothing, boy. You're too young.
You don't even know
what you're talking about.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah. Tell him something else homes.
- Come on, get him.
- No no no no no no.
That's what I'm talking about!
Keep that up, Sean! Keep that up!
Hands up, baby, you good?
You about to give me my money right here.
- Man.
- You just got punched.
Keep on doing that, Sean.
Yo! Get him! Come on.
Unpredictable. You're going down, son.
Look at that. Missed me.
Look at that, look at that, look at that.
Another miss, another miss.
Let's show you what the hair looks like.
That's all You hitting is air, boy?
Yeah, yeah. Oh my God.
- Mom? Mom!
- Don't do this to me right now.
Don't, get...
- Sean.
- Don't do this to me.
Oh my gosh.
Mom!
Please!
I love you mom.
No...!
All the money straight?
Big man, yeah.
Sean!
It's good to see an old friend.
What brings you down to Compton?
Big Phil!
I see you out here still taking
these kids money, huh?
Money's my middle name.
Besides, people want to see it.
Otherwise, I'd be out of business.
Now, what's it going to
be? You betting tonight?
- Or you just stop by to say hi?
- Is Tork fighting tonight.
- Still undefeated.
- Okay, we got $5000 on Tork.
I know this ain't the
same 5000 like last time
that you didn't have.
You know what I had to do to you?
I don't want to have to repeat it.
Look, I got the five K,
okay? You can trust me.
You got it on you. Yeah.
Of course. I always got it on me.
Okay, bet. Five K on Tork.
Hey, protect yourself!
Get up!
Now!
Now, I know y'all came
to see a fight, right?
Yeah. We all know how this goes down.
Who'd y'all come here to see tonight?
Tork, Tork, Tork...
Now, give it up for the undisputed...
Undefeated... The one, the only...
Tork.
And now for the visitor!
Give it up for him, it's the first time
in the ring tonight, y'all!
A hard hitting kid from the south!
Ringer!
Goin down.
You seen my fighter Ringer, right?
Come from a big family of fighters.
Yeah.
All muscle. Diabolical right hook?
You better have that five K.
And if it isn't the champ himself.
Let's go. Pops.
You know me. Making my rounds.
So what's up? You talk to your boys?
No, not in a minute.
Family business. I get it.
- You betting tonight?
- Oh, yeah.
I got $5000 on Tork.
Damn, pops.
If I were you, I would have
put my money on the Ringer.
But that's your money.
Wait, do you know something that I don't?
I already said too much.
Good talking to you, pops.
Tell your boys I said what's up?
Ladies and gentlemen, it
looks like we got a fight tonight.
Whoa! Come on.
Oh!
Oh!
Oh!
Damn it! Someone call 911!
Come on kid.
Hurry!
Hey, Sean.
Where's my money?
Big Phil, you set me and Tork up.
You knew that he had no
chance against your
boy, which probably isn't
even a boy at all.
Hey, look here, Sean. Winning
is the name of the game.
Now, maybe you shouldn't
be betting if you ain't sure.
You got this kid in
here fighting for his life.
One hit and gets a concussion.
If this place knew the real reason
this kid was lying in his bed, you...
Hey hey hey, hey. Careful, Sean.
You know what I'm capable of.
Now, either you got my money or you don't.
Yeah, I got it. It's in the car.
n*gga, don't make me have to come find you.
You won't have to.
Okay, I got it. I promise.
I'll be right back
Hey hey hey hey hey.
Hey hey wait wait wait
wait. Put the knife down, bro.
- You with big Phil?
- Big Phi...
What? I don't know who Big Phil is.
I can assure you, I'm not. Look.
Who the hell are. You, then?
If you calm down, I can tell you, bro.
Calm down. My name is Marty Harris.
I'm a friend of your brother, Aaron.
- He the one sent me.
- Oh, Aaron.
I haven't talked to my brother in years.
- What the hell does he want?
- It's about Patricia.
Listen, tell Patricia I'll get
her her child support as soon
as I get back on my feet.
- Okay?
- Wait. Hold on.
Wait. I don't think you understand, bro.
Patricia died last night.
- What?
- Yeah.
That's what I came to tell
you. I'm just a messenger.
Um.
Wow.
My mom was a great person.
She taught me that I
could I could do anything
I put my mind to.
She taught me and told
me that we could, um.
We could do anything
as long as we had hope.
She used to say,
"When life swings a left hook at you."
"You just got to duck."
Take your time. Take your time, Junior.
This is going to be a hard one duck.
It's going to be hard to duck, mom.
It's okay son. It's okay son.
I don't want you to go.
- Please don't leave me.
- Mom!
Mom!
Hey, it's alright.
I want mom, Sean.
- I want mom.
- She's in a better place, man.
Mom's in a better place.
It's alright.
Mom's in a better place, it's alright.
Don't cry.
Mom.
I can't believe my mom is gone.
- I wish I could have done more.
- It's not your fault.
You did all you could.
I didn't do enough.
Yo, this is hard for everybody.
Your mama was a good woman.
If y'all need anything, you
already know I got your back.
I appreciate you, Unc.
AJ. Your mother was good to everybody, man.
I'm just glad she's not suffering anymore.
In fact, if you think about
it her spirit is all around us.
Blowing in the wind.
Ya know what I mean.
What's going on, Junior?
Is he okay?
What's up son?
Are you talking to me?
You got the nerve to call me son?
Look, I didn't come here for all that.
I just came here to pay
respects to your mother.
Ain't nobody ask your punk a*s to come.
Who told you you can come?
Who you talking to, little n*gga?
I'm talking to you, n*gga.
Hey hey hey hey hey hey. Sean.
Show some respect. That is your father.
What?
You gotta listen to your
uncle. Watch your mouth.
I know I ain't been around, but you ain't.
You ain't talking to me like that, boy.
Boy?
n*gga, I'm more man than you'll ever be.
I would never leave my family
I would never leave my brother.
You know what. You
would do in my situation.
I know your mom pumped
your head full of lies.
Talk about my mom one more time.
And I know I'd slap the sh*t out of you.
How about that?
You ain't man enough.
This n*gga serious?
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey yo yo.
That's enough. Take a walk.
You this way.
What's wrong with you, Sean?
You can't just come back
into his life after ten years
and expect him to just...
just listen to you.
You could just check him like that.
- He is your son.
- What is that supposed to mean?
It means he's stubborn and
hard headed, just like you.
He needs to learn some respect.
He gets that from his mama.
Don't matter where
you get it from, all right?
Look.
I want to help you, okay? Okay.
Look, Aaron, I don't I don't
need any handouts, man.
Yeah, you say that,
but you forget I got ears
and eyes on these streets, man.
Big Phil is looking for you.
Say you owe him 20 racks.
What?
- I don't owe him, Jack.
- Are you sure?
Yeah. Listen, we already know.
Not owing somebody, can turn into
owing somebody a lot of money
in the streets.
And Big Phil ain't a n*gga
you want to owe nothing to.
Look, there's three sides to every story.
But fine yeah...
Thanks for looking out.
Speaking of big Phil,
I hear you got this guy
that's knocking people out.
I mean, cold one punch,
he making a k*lling off him.
Yeah. Big Phil's out here
actually k*lling people.
He's got some fighter with
a cannon of a right arm.
He put this kid, Tork, in a hospital.
Well, look, the street
fighting thing is blowing up,
and we're making a lot of money.
I could use your help and
you could use the money.
- Got any prospects?
- As a matter of fact, I do.
A young kid that can be a champion.
Who?
Sean.
- Junior.
- Yeah, yeah.
He's as good or better
than you at your age, man.
Really?
Sean, why'd you stop, man?
You could have been.
You could have been so big.
You could have been...
- Aaron. Aaron.
Listen, we're not gonna
do this whole would a,
could a, shoulda thing, okay?
- I stopped. End of story.
- All right, fair enough.
Where are you staying nowadays, man?
You look like a bum.
Suit look like it cost like,
$5. You could've at least went
to Men's Warehouse.
What's the matter, man?
Sean, this could be something, man.
All right.
You could really make a lot of money.
Look, I'm. I'm good.
Good luck with Junior.
Maybe Sean could have been something
that I couldn't have. Okay.
Look, look, Sean, he needs you, man.
I got a lot on my plate right now, okay?
- I ain't got time for this.
- Any advice?
Should have connected.
Sean.
You change your mind.
You already know how to reach me.
If you even got a phone.
Based on the information
presented here today,
the court hereby issues full
custody to Mr. Sean Jacobs Sr.
Your honor, may I?
Sure.
Your honor, I have
community service in town,
of which I reside.
It's two hours away from here.
Now, I only came because I was
told that someone from the boy's
family had to be here.
And given the fact that their mother is.
That she's the only family that they had.
I felt that I had to be here,
but I am not prepared to take
care of custody.
I didn't even ask for custody.
Mr. Jacobs, you are their father.
The law states that if
anything should ever happen
to one parent, the other one
automatically gets custody.
I don't think that there
can be a negotiation
that can happen here.
Okay, but out of curiosity
though, if I were to decline or
what would happen to the boys.
They would be put in a foster care.
Okay. That's great. So there's an option.
Look, I don't have arrangement to take care
of two kids right now.
What I just explained. I
don't have a job right now.
And as well as not having a place to live.
Mr. Jacobs, if you deny custody,
Sean Junior and Tony Jacobs
will be placed into foster care next week.
Now, they're currently
staying with their uncle Aaron.
Your brother?
Yeah, I guess I don't really know.
So what are you going to do, Mr. Jacobs?
I would like to waive my right
to guardianship, Your Honor.
Okay.
The only way that you can
legally do that is to prove
that you're incapable
of caring for children,
which means you don't have a place to live.
You don't have a steady job.
Are you ready to prove
those things, Mr. Jacobs?
Yeah, I'm ready to prove that. Your honor.
Mr. Jacobs, I'm confused.
Most fathers would never put their children
into the system if they
had the right to custody.
Now, I can see how your situation.
And that's not what you want here.
So I will give you one
more chance to decide
whether you will accept
guardianship or deny it.
Wait. Hold up, hold up, hold up.
Before, uh, before you say that.
And who might you be?
Uh, Aaron Jacobs, Your honor. Sir.
Oh, so you're the uncle that the boys are
currently staying with?
Yeah. Yeah, that's that's
that's my brother, uh, Sean.
And because that's my brother.
That was. That was my nephews.
That's what makes me the
uncle. Because it's my brother.
But you already said it.
Can I talk to my brother for a
second before he makes a very,
very dumb decision?
Are you Mr. Jacobs? Legal representation.
Yeah. That's me.
Um. Yep.
Aaron Jacobs.
Jacobs and Ronnie.
That's... That's my firm.
Got a little jingle. Jacobs and Ronnie
Call Ronnie
You probably heard it a couple of times.
You don't look like you heard it.
On TV. It don't play that much no more.
Um, can can I talk to
my brother real quick?
- I'll allow it.
- Thank you.
Sean. What's wrong with you, man?
You gonna let the boys
go into the system like that?
They don't want me in their lives any more
than I want them in mine.
That's not the point, okay?
Their mother just died.
They don't have nobody else.
Yeah, but they don't have me either.
What the boys ever do to you, man.
Hey, forget about all that.
I know you owe Big Phil a lot of money.
- We already talked about that.
- Yeah, but you lied.
Listen, what if I told
you that you can make all
the money back that you
owe Big Phil and triple it?
- Okay, now I'm listening.
- Your son, he got it, man.
Look, so all the street fights
that come through Compton come
through me, I run all of that.
All right, so big Phil wants a fight.
It's got to come through me.
So consider that debt canceled.
But there's a price.
- And what's that?
- You got to train, Junior.
Oh, hell no.
Listen, I'm not going back to boxing.
Come on Sean. What...
What are you doing with your life now?
Living in a crap apartment.
Barely got enough money
to take care of yourself.
You owe a man money
that we both know can have
you k*lled like that.
Come on, man, it's your son.
You could, you know,
get to know him a little bit.
While you make money.
You could even finish your
community service hours.
It's a win win for everybody. Sean.
Okay, okay. Let's say that I did train him.
What about the little one?
What do I do with him?
I mean, I don't know, we just
figured out he's ten years old.
He runs around the gym and
tries to bet everybody money.
He's a cute kid. You love him?
He's sitting on a gold mine, man.
Use it.
Look. Ten racks.
Take that as an advancement.
You could pay me back when you make it.
If I do this, you cannot tell
the boys it's a business deal.
They should think that I
actually care about them.
Listen, the boys won't know
anything other than their
fathers coming to the
rescue, so they don't have
to go into a foster home.
Now you think it's straight? That's my bro.
You better be happy you agreed to this.
I was gonna have to knock you out.
Remember what happened in
front of Shirley in second grade?
Oh, did you knock me
out? I was one of us now.
Spend the check I'll make it back
Pocket full like a hundred racks
Money grown I'll make it flip
Cold blooded nine up on my hip
They don't want no smoke
- Let's go.
- They don't want no smoke
Come on, give it to me. Come on.
Come on.
Big energy. Come on.
Hard work makes champion, son. Let's go.
Come on.
Give it to me. Give it to me.
Go go go go go go go go!
- Good, good, good. Here we go.
- Brother. Bro.
Good to see you, man.
Thanks for coming out, man.
You ready to make some history?
I ain't trying to make history.
I'm trying to make money.
Be good. If we could do both. Right.
Introduce you to the
crew. Big Hank right here.
Crazy on the mitts. One of the best.
Good to see you.
I saw you...
I saw you at the house the other day?
I want to introduce myself, but I didn't.
I didn't think it was proper
under the circumstances.
I think we all can agree with that.
Yeah.
I just want to let you
know I'm a big fan champ.
I'm not sure if champ
is fitting anymore, but it's
but it's nice to actually meet you, Hank.
I hear you.
Listen, I take care of
everything around here.
Everybody calls me Uncle Hank.
That's some of the young
guys. They call me Unc.
But, you know, you need something.
Let me know, alright.
That sounds good. Will do.
- Good to see you.
- Okay.
Let's go to work on these myths, man.
This is Big Spike right here. Professional.
He helps train the kids around here.
Bro, you're a legend, man.
Hey, why'd you stop?
You would have been one of the goats.
Oh, you know personal reasons, man.
It's all good, though.
I can't wait to see you in the ring.
For sure. For sure.
Hey, you know, my boy Aaron got me, right?
Yeah, but, hey, I'm gonna
make sure to get your
tickets to the next one.
All right. See you, boss.
- Nice to meet you.
- He fighting in Vegas?
It'd be good if we all go out.
Ridin' dirty 120 on a dime
Yo, Sean, T, y'all get down here.
Down with no smoke, no no no no
What the hell is he doing here? Unc!
He's here to help train you.
I didn't ask for that.
I don't need no training from.
No second rate has been.
Never had, I mean, no.
You know what, little man?
I've never heard your name
ringing in no one's arena
and in no one's marquee.
The only Sean they know is me.
So if I'm some second rate, never has been.
And you're my son. What's that make you?
Now glove up. Let's spar.
You beat me, then I'll train you.
But if you don't.
This was a complete waste of my time.
- Are you serious?
- Let's go.
All right, old man. Let's see what you got.
Hurry up. Don't be quick.
- I ain't got all day.
- I got 500, Sean.
- Which one?
- The big one.
You can call him dad.
n*gga, he ain't my daddy.
n*gga he is your daddy.
Besides, I know what he
can do. And I ain't no idiot.
I'm a businessman.
Well, I'm a businessman,
too, and I'm not taking that bet.
I already know how this is gonna pan out.
Let's go.
All right, we'll see, we'll see.
All right, guys.
Look at me. Look at me. Look at me.
Don't let him get in your
head. Let him get in your head.
Don't let him get in your head Junior.
- Go easy on the Sean.
- Here you go, champ.
Oh, I'm not gonna need that.
He ain't getting nowhere close to my face.
You wanna keep talking
sh*t? Come on now, homey.
Stop wasting my time, boy.
Homey. Come on, let's go.
Keep your distance.
Take it easy Sean.
Stay on your toes. Keep em up.
God damn it!
You're not listening, son.
Keep your damn guards up.
Keep em up!
Watch your distance.
Damn it!
You get your a*s beat.
Cause you're not listening, son.
Get up. Get your a*s up.
This your champ, huh? Really?
Wanna keep talk a sh*t?
- No no.
- No. Oh!
Get up!
Come on, get up bao!
I know that really hurts, doesn't it, boy?
Oh, you call you son.
You don't deserve that.
You're not listening, son.
You're not listening.
- Come on.
- Keep your damn guards up, son.
Keep em up.
- Come on.
- Ow ow ow ow!
I should beat you up for wasting my time.
Hey, look.
You remember what happened
when you was in sixth grade,
and I was in the fifth
grade, and I laid you
out in front of Patricia.
You don't want that to
happen again, do you.
Aaron,
that was me beat you
up in front of Patricia.
What? Look like you beat me up.
I beat you... That don't even matter.
Look, the bottom line is
family should not be fighting.
Come on. All right.
You're right. I'm out.
Sean. Come on, man, look, this is training.
It's not fighting. Look, look, Sean.
Come on, wait up, bro. Listen, man.
Sean, you're a championship fighter, okay?
And I know your son is just an amateur,
but look on the bright side.
This could be a way for
you to make a little money
and keep your kids out of the system, man.
Look, just give them a week.
That's all I'm asking. A week
just to see what happens.
Give me one reason other
than money that I should.
I'll give you ten. I got
you, I'll give you ten.
- I'll let you two talk.
- Ten missed birthdays.
Let's count ten missed Christmases.
Ten Thanksgivings.
Looking out the window all the time.
Wondering when dad's coming home.
- Ten of Tony's first steps.
- Your mom said
she never wanted to see my face again.
What you and mom had going
had nothing to do with me, though.
Let alone Tony. Yet you punished me for it.
Me.
Man, you told me you were coming back.
I waited ten whole years.
Ten years. And you ain't never show up.
Not even a letter. Nothing.
I'm not asking you to be
my dad. That ship sailed.
That ship gone, homey.
I just need you to be here.
Right now. Where it counts.
Cause I know one day I could be champion.
I just need the right guidance, that's all.
- Look.
- That's all I need.
I don't have time for that.
Do you care about
anything? Anything in life?
Huh?
Look, I'll be 18 in a
few months, that's all.
And I'll be cool.
I got people that can look out for me.
But, Tony.
Tony don't got nobody.
I don't know about you.
I don't want my brother
growing up in a home.
Look, man, you turn 18, you adopt him.
What?
You're an as*h*le.
You are a real as*h*le.
You gotta watch your
tone before I go over there
- and knock you out again.
- So then do it.
I can barely take care of myself.
Think I can take care of a kid?
Look, little man, I'm sorry.
What's this?
Well, isn't this nice?
A little family reunion, huh?
Hey Phil, what are you
doing on this side of town?
Come on, Sean, don't play stupid with me.
- I came to collect.
- Collect what, homie?
You know where you at, n*gga.
You think these things scared me?
Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey
hey. This is my business, okay?
Hey. It's got nothing to do with you.
You go back inside. I'll talk to my friend.
Hey, guys, why don't you
put Mr. Jacobs in the truck?
Huh?
Whoa whoa whoa whoa.
Sean, I see you still got it, huh?
Nice.
But can you dodge a b*llet.
Big Phil? Put that g*n down right now.
I have you on the floor
with the rest of your friends.
n*gga, let him go.
You're right.
Fortunately for you, I don't
want to k*ll you because
then I wouldn't get my money.
Look Big Phil, I don't know
why you come to my territory
where I'm protected like this.
Okay, listen, I know you
want to get your money, okay?
I agree with you. That's fair.
But do you want your money right now or
you wanna go double or nothing?
- I'm listening.
- Ringer.
Okay. Against my boy.
Right. If Ringer... my
boy wins, you get nothing.
Ringer wins and I'll give you double.
You do know that's 40 K, right? Cash.
- I can count.
- Deal.
I'll see you at the yard in a week.
See you at the yard. One week.
You good?
Yeah. I'm good.
This is gonna be Sean.
I need my picture up in here somewhere.
You ain't gonna regret this.
- All right.
- Let's talk some business.
You really think you can turn
my brother into a champion?
Look, kid, I could do
a lot, but I can't turn
him into a champion.
He's got to turn himself
into his own champion.
See me? I'm a lover, not a fighter.
So at these fights, I'm gonna
be collecting all the girls numbers
and stacking my papers.
Don't know if Uncle Aaron
told you, but I'm a betting man.
I'll bet you a rack you won't
last longer than the week
you have to get ready for the fight.
That will probably lose anyway.
Just because you can fight
don't mean that you can train.
Are you a Republican or a Democrat?
Look, can someone get
this kid away from me?
Not just any kid.
I was told I belonged to
you, which is pretty whack,
because I don't even know you.
Well, it was either me or foster care.
Welcome to the family.
Pleasure doing business.
Hey, baby. You okay?
- Yeah.
- Aaron told me you were here.
Who sent you to talk to me, uh?
He may have said something to me.
Yeah. My bad.
I just don't know if he.
I mean, I know he's a great fighter.
I know me and him as a team.
We could do some damage.
But this is the same man
who went MIA for ten years.
No postcard, no letter, no birthday gifts,
not even a goodbye.
And then he wants to
show back up in my life,
right when my mom dies
and act like everything is cool.
That don't sit right with me. It don't.
I know, baby. I can't imagine how you feel.
He is your father, Sean, I feel like.
I feel like you should give him a chance.
- You got to give him a chance.
- He's not my father.
He's not my father. He's nothing to me.
And that's just how I feel.
He left us.
He left me and Tony with a dying
mother, and then had the nerve
to tell me to take care
of him when he's 18.
That's sick.
Sean.
Your mother was sick for three years.
You told me your dad
walked out ten years ago.
I don't think he knew
that she was sick, baby.
I feel like you're being
a little bit dramatic.
What, are you trying to take his side now?
No, no, no. I'm not taking his side.
Then whose side are you taking?
I'm on your side. Always.
I'm just saying give him a chance.
I know he was gone all those years.
It doesn't really matter where he was.
He's here now, and he doesn't have to be.
You never know what kind
of relationship you could have
with him if you don't try.
I just don't want this to go south.
That's the only thing I'm scared of.
Is the whole thing going
south? And I regret everything.
- I could have just walked away.
- I know, but what if...
What if this is what your
mom would have wanted?
Hmm.
You always were good with words, huh?
No, I just know you.
Mm. And I know you. You're hungry, huh?
Yeah. Of course.
Touch the bag. Touch the bag.
In three, two,
one, and... Time.
It's not good enough.
I need 300 per minute.
What'cha mean I...
- Let's go again. Let's go again.
Let's go Junior, let's go,
let's go, let's go, let's go,
Touch the bag, and... go.
Step more into it. Step back. Right.
There you go. There you go.
Back.
You go. Jump, jump!
Okay, okay.
Jump forward. Boom!
Back! Boom!
There you go.
Hey, Sean. Hey, Sean.
You wanna be great, or be mediocre.
I wanna be great. I wanna be great.
Then be great.
Three minutes.
Listen, don't step on that rope.
Left, right. Left, right and get into it.
How you gonna be a
champion? You can't jump rope.
Let's make music, let's go.
Let's go, let's go, let's go!
Three minutes.
Crisscross those feet.
Tap left. Tap right.
Tap left. Tap right.
There you go.
See?
What you got in you. Huh?
You gonna sit him down?
You gonna sit him down?
Let's start looking. At this right here.
Shuffle.
You know, I'm faster than you there.
Faster than me? Gonna show me?
- Watch this.
- You gonna show me?
- Go ahead, go ahead.
- Oooh!
Let's go.
All right. Right.
You're the champ, you're the champ,
you're the champ, you're the champ.
Faster, faster, faster.
Let's go, let's go. Three minutes straight.
Let's go. Dance.
Dance like you do in the ring?
Dance. There you go.
Harder.
Punch through.
I bet he can't go three
rounds without a break.
Tony, I'm not giving you no more money.
I didn't ask for money, I said bet.
Yeah, but that's the same thing.
It's all good. You got it, though.
Yeah, I know. I'm gonna keep it.
By not betting with you.
- I could keep it for you.
- Go home.
Yeah.
Come on. Come on.
I see ringers left
shoulder is a little weak.
Almost like he injured it.
But he's so strong and all of his power
comes from his right side.
So it almost doesn't even matter.
Now, see, his left jab
is a little bit low, but he's
bigger and stronger than most
of his opponents, so it doesn't
really affect his boxing.
We're gonna use that to our advantage.
He's bigger than you,
but he's slower than you.
You're going to beat him with your speed.
Do you keep your distance right there?
We're just gonna have
to tire him out. Alright.
So your condition has to be top notch.
You think the body would work.
If they hit him hard? Break his ribs.
Break his ribs?
Yeah.
So when you get on that
bag, deliver that power.
Turn those hips. Bring
that power from your legs.
Kind of like Tyson.
Yeah, just like Tyson.
Under street lights
The concrete, my accomplice
Hustling in my veins
everyday another contest
Dodgin shadows
sharper than a switchblade
Low fade, hoodies up
Hope begins to evade
Survivin in the jungle
were the metal sings
Broken dreams weaved
tight like prison rings
Voices in the night
Echos of the beast
Fight to stay alive in
the belly of the streets
Graffiti gospel preaches
sermons on the walls
Every corner gotta code
Phone booths take the calls
Dice roll quicker than
the time I gotta think
On the cusp of drown
in Still refuse to sink
Corner hold legends Untold and unspoken
Chains on the wrists
Young lives get broken
I sharp sharper than projectiles tossed
Livin ain't cheap when
you count up the cost
Stories in the cracks
Every sidewalk a sage
Books left unread We
still trapped in a cage
Stray dogs bark
Warnings echo in the night
Only way to freedom
is continuing to fight
Survivin in the jungle
were the metal sings
Broken dreams weaved
tight like prison rings
Voices in the night
Echos of the beast
Fight to stay alive in
the belly of the streets
Come on Junior. Let's
go. Focus, focus, focus.
There you go. There's no more.
There you go. There you go. Jab!
Jab across. Keep your
guards up. Keep 'em up.
Watch the jab, watch the jab.
That's what I'm saying. Watch the body.
- Check the body at all times.
- Rock the body.
Watch the body.
There you go. To the body.
To the body. To the body.
Right hook, left shoulder.
Oh, nice.
- Nice work, son.
- Okay, work on my combos.
There you go. Stay on that stick.
Let's get it. Come on, let's get it.
Looks like you've been working hard.
- It smells like it too.
- It's not playing with you.
Stop. Okay.
No for real. My, uh.
My pops ain't no joke
when it comes to this.
So, how's it going?
Honestly. Pretty good.
Yeah. I took your advice.
I'm giving it a try.
That's the man I love right there.
The one with heart.
I think, um, I'ma just call you later.
I gotta talk to my pops real quick.
Is everything okay?
Yeah. Everything's good.
Yeah. You okay?
Yeah.
- Yeah.
- I'm sure.
Yeah. Don't worry.
I'm good.
Yeah. Do your thing.
Um, do you wanna go to
the diner when you're done?
That's a date.
Okay.
This is about to be easy Big Phil.
Not as easy as you think. Sean is smart.
And if his son is anything like
him, he's not to be overlooked.
Now, get your a*s up and back to work.
Can't right now, Big
Phil. My shoulder is out.
- Are you telling me no.
- I'm not telling you no.
Just saying my shoulder hurts right now?
I can barely move it.
I see, I see.
Ladies, y'all could leave now.
Do you know who the f*ck you working for?
Lil' homie, look at me
when I'm talking to you.
Look, I ain't your sl*ve, my man.
I know you been making money off me.
And it's cool because I've
been making money too.
And I agreed to this wack a*s
Deal so I could pay off my debt.
But when it's all over, I'm done.
I wanna see you try and stop me.
I was a machine.
I remember that day like it was yesterday.
It was five rounds, almost lost.
It was the first time I
ever got knocked down.
I got back up.
Three seconds after he knocked
me down, I knocked him out.
You stopped causing me, huh?
This picture was my last moments of glory.
The moments right
before your mother told me
that she was pregnant with you.
And I started boxing
more than I should have.
Because I knew that I
wanted to be a father.
That I wanted to provide.
But I was working so hard
that I ended up injuring myself.
And I was never the same after that.
I started drinking.
I neglected your mother and you.
And I was trying so hard
to get back to my glory days
that I forgot who I was.
Your mother, she...
She wanted to leave me, and I understood.
I could convince her to stay. And she did.
But then I realized.
I can't chase my dreams and chase a family.
Why? Why couldn't you have both?
Because chasing dreams
doesn't pay the bills.
And back then, we didn't have
street boxing where you could
make extra money training
and, you know, chasing fights
that never would come.
I had to get a real job.
And that meant less time for my career
and more time paying bills.
After a couple failed jobs
and not being able to provide.
I became resentful.
I resented your mom, and I blamed you.
For my career not going
the way that it could have.
Started staying out. Not coming home.
I was an absolute mess.
But your mother, she loved me.
And then?
She got pregnant again with Tony.
I sacrificed everything for you.
Everything that I could have been.
Oh, wow. Sean.
Starting a family with me was a sacrifice.
I never asked you to stop boxing.
All I asked was for you to
be responsible and to take
care of your family.
f*ck you.
I can barely take care of myself.
How am I supposed to
take care of you and Junior?
Look around this tiny little place.
You wouldn't have wanted
a life that's better than this.
Again, you act like our life is so bad.
It is compared to what it could have been.
You made me give up my dreams, Patricia.
I quit because you got pregnant.
I could have given you and
Junior a life that we wanted.
I didn't ask you to quit.
I supported you, pushed you to be better.
You pushed yourself too hard and got hurt.
That wasn't my fault.
No. I quit because you got pregnant.
That changed everything.
You know how hard it is having a kid.
It's not easy.
I didn't want this, I wanted
us, I wanted us to have
a life better than my parents.
Well, I only wanted you.
I was happy with the one that I had.
And you want to talk about sacrifice?
What about all those nights
I spent taking care of Junior
alone while you were out
chasing your dreams, huh?
That is sacrifice. I
wanted a life with you.
Not without you. Never seeing you.
Because half the time you're somewhere,
getting your head beat in.
And the other half you're out
screwing different groupies.
By the time you're done with that life,
you don't even remember me.
Or worse, you die in the ring.
And if that's the life you
want to give me, then boy,
am I glad that you gave it up.
Because that's the life
that no woman wants.
You know, Sean, you got me f*cked up.
You need to leave because I
damn sure don't want to hear
about a life you could have had.
Especially with the baby on the way.
Another child.
- I'm not sure if it's yours.
- What?
What?
I'm sorry. It was only one...
You're sorry? One time?
You cheated and you're blaming me?
Oh, it's only one time. It's okay now.
Who is he?
You know what? Don't
even answer that question.
What are you gonna do? Huh?
- Where are you going to go?
- I don't know.
I don't know. But any place but here.
Wait.
Do it!
Do it! Sean.
I deserve it. Do it!
Do it!
Goodbye, Patricia.
I'm sorry.
I can't say I do anything different.
I loved your mother with my whole heart.
And I didn't know if Tony
was mine or if she was lying
to get me to leave.
In the way I felt betrayed.
And I didn't care to stay, to find out.
So. Yeah.
I blamed you.
I blamed you for my life
going the way that it went.
I blamed her.
And I didn't care if I ever
saw you or her ever again.
Damn.
When you're a kid, you don't even.
You can't even understand
that. Don't even register.
I can't even say I understand it now.
All I can say is sorry.
But still.
It still hurt. Not having you there.
All my life, growing up.
I still felt betrayed. It was wrong.
You could have talked to me.
- You know?
- I know.
I'm sorry.
But you, you've got
nothing to be sorry about
because you were just a kid.
What happened between
you and me and your mother?
You're right.
I shouldn't have taken it out on you.
I was just... I was so hurt.
But now you know why I stopped.
Because I could have
been the next big thing.
I could have taken care
of everything for you.
Everything could have been different.
What if I could be that for you?
Maybe I could be that for both of us.
You know what I mean.
When you left, I made
it my mission to to box.
I wanted to be better than you.
I wanted to be something that you weren't.
That's why I never
gave it the option to quit.
Mom supported me, but, I mean.
I just never caught a break.
I didn't have the opportunity that you had.
None of it.
That's why I feel like
this is a second chance.
Especially after my mama died.
I don't even know how I kept boxing.
Is that what you want?
Man, that's all I ever wanted.
Mom would have wanted it.
Well, I can help you with that.
Look, kid, I can't box for you.
You gotta box in that ring yourself.
I know.
So maybe we can do this together as a team.
I'd like that.
Let's do it.
Demons around the mourner
Gunpowder gospel songs on a trigger
Late night sermons
with the liquor sippers
Monsters eatin'...
Are you ready!
The Main event is here. Let
me hear you make some noise!
Now y'all know how we get
down to the Junk yard, right?
Right?
Now, y'all know the
name Sean Jacobs, right?
Right.
Now we have his son.
Baby Jacobs, in the house tonight.
Give it up for the
champ's son! The visitor!
Sean Baby Jacobs Jr.!
Clear out, clear out, clear out.
Let him through. Let him through.
And now, the moment
you've all been waiting for.
The one...
The only... All your own. The Ringer!
I got a rack on the ringer.
Bro, your just a kid.
I'm Sean Jacobs' son. I'm royalty.
Okay, okay.
- You got it.
- Thank you.
Don't let them get in your head.
Why am I so nervous.
Block it out. It's now or never.
What the hell is Baby Jacobs?
It's embarrassing.
I think it has a nice ring to it.
They call me Young Flash.
That's way cooler.
Everybody here knows me.
Hey, they're gonna call you
whatever they're gonna call you.
It's gonna be baby Jacobs.
Okay.
Remember everything we practiced, okay.
- What's his weak spot?
- Left shoulder.
Left shoulder. Okay.
Don't give that away that
you know that right away.
You gotta dance a little bit. Okay.
Make him think he has you beat.
Tire him out with your footwork.
He's flat footed. Okay.
So if he... As long as you bob and weave,
he won't connect. But Sean, if he does...
Okay.
That's the hardest punch I've ever seen.
- Okay.
- I got this Sean.
All right. Trust me, I
got this. Let me do this.
You got this. Okay.
I believe in you.
My boy.
My brothers cooked, I bet a rack Sean
won't last the first round.
They let you bet?
I told them I was Sean Jacobs' son.
He's like royalty around here.
Yeah, yeah, we both like royalty.

- We're even.
Hey, my jacket is cold.
Were you extra money, huh?
- I'm fresh.

I honestly thought he had you for a minute.
You know me n*gga, I put
a sil*ncer on Ringer, huh?
Okay, okay. Hey, look.
I got some people down.
In Watts that's making that bread.
Friday night, fight night.
Wouldn't takes all.
How much we talking?
Whatever's in the pot.

What you think?
I don't care who it is.
You hear me? Sign me up.

- Good morning.
Imma give y'all a minute.
- Alright.
- Good work, man.
Look, I know that last fight was a fluke.
It was.
The reason I won is because
you knew his weakness.
Not every fight gonna be like that.
I need you to tell me
what I can do to get better.
You got to invest.
It takes countless discipline and time.
You mean time? We don't got time.
We got five days left.
All right, kid, you want to be great?

I might have seen Terrance
or somebody do that.
I seen one, or maybe it was Floyd.
Floyd. Floyd was slick.
Floyd is a hard target to hit.
All right, next one, next one.
We're going. We're gonna do two hooks.
You're gonna create. Pop to the glove.
- Open it up, boom.
- To the glove?
Yes, to the glove.
You're gonna open it up. Come right back.
Okay.
- You said to the glove?
- Yes, to the glove.
Do you think I would be more like.
Like Floyd style or like Tyson style?

- Yeah, absolutely.
...pray when the day come
Whoa! There you go.

Let's go y'all.
Y'all crazy.
Y'all do good about that money.
What we say? Ali!
Boom-biyay
Ali! Boom-biyay!
Show me the money.
- What, what?
- Would you give me something.
- What's up, Breaker Boy.
- Good, man, good.
This is Rick, a promoter friend of mine.
- What's up, Rick?
- Rick.
How y'all. Doing?
Hey, Rick -Yeah.
Just want to say nice
work out there tonight.
- What is that, 15 and zero now.
- Yeah.
That's a.
Great number to debut on a TKO.
Sport wild card next month.
TKO.
- Professional boxing.
- For sure.
Amateurs got to go pro eventually, right?
Floyd, Tyson.
All the greats have fought on that stage
before going to superstardom.
That could be you.
Here's my card.
Congratulations, kid. You deserve it.
Huh.
- Talk to you soon.
- Yes, sir.
- All right.
- All right.
- Good to see you, man.
- You guys have a good night.
Good to meet you.
You too.
Yo, listen up.
Junior. TKO. It's big.
The next level.
- The big time.
- Did that just happen?
- Did that just happen?
- Just happened.
- Yeah.
- Are you serious?
- That's how you ball.
- Are you kidding me?
I'm so proud of you, babe.
All the work you put in
all these months Junior,
You got to know.
You ready for the big time?
And TKO is big time.
Come on, man. Come on.
The TKO tournament
starts with the wild card fight.
You got two amateur
fighters go head to head.
The winner of that
goes pro. After that TKO,
pound for pound tournament begins.
We've got three rounds, seven fights.
We've got conference
rounds, semifinals round,
finals round, winner that
they win the whole thing.
Junior wins the amateur fight
and the rest is history.
That's right.
So that means if I win this,
I'm gonna be better than you.
I'm not laughing. I'm not laughing.
Look, you, uh, you got to win
the wild card fight first, okay?
You know, you do that, and then, you know,
I won that when I was
your age. So to beat me...
You got to win the entire tournament.
Well, I got you to help me.
I'll be good.
And when I did it, I
was 16 years old before I
met your mother.
Yeah, but I had.
I had everything to prove,
you know, a lot of the fighters,
they were bigger than me, but I was.
I was young and ambitious, and I was fast.
I had lot of heart.
Just like you.
Come on now.
Don't tell me you're getting
all sentimental on me now.
Don't do that.
Don't do that.
Well, that is what I always told him.
That that's what makes him so special.
Was his heart.
It's time for the world to see that.
Right.
Bingo.
I'm telling you I'm gonna cry.
I'm crying. This is crazy.
- It's going on.
- You know.
All I know is this TKO
tournament changed my life.
And after this, I won
13 zero as a contender.
Yeah.
You know, this couldn't go any
further because you know why?
But maybe you can go where I couldn't.
You already know. I'm gonna make you proud.
I'll make the whole family proud.
I'll make mom proud. Right?
Yeah.
I'll make sure Jacobs is a champion name.
Bro, mark my words.
Hey, what's going on here, bro?
Y'all got old Hank upset
and emotional and whatnot.
What's up?
Look, man, you know I ain't
one for emotions, but, um.
I watch you every day.
All the work you put in
over these last few months.
- I never get like this, bro.
- I know.
I just wanted you to know,
man. I'm proud of you, man.
Because I know I pushed
you hard and you did it.
- I'm proud of you.
- Thanks.
I don't think I've ever
seen you show emotion.
I appreciate that.
But we're family, bro. We are family.
And I love you Junior.
- Proud of you.
- I love you too Uncle Hank.
We all love you, Junior.
We are all proud of you.
- I'ma still need my 2.5%.
- Why you keep playing, bro?
I need money.
I'll be fine when you
just not talk ever again.
- I'm a business man.
- You know what? Look at me, man.
You need to get you a
paper route or something.
That's what you need.
Hey, Junior, I gotta ask you.
Why'd you choose boxing?
You really want to know?
Yeah, I do.
Well, the short answer
is, it's in my blood.
The long answer is, um... Mom.
She pushed me.
She always spoke of me
being, like, a world changer.
And after you left.
I don't know, maybe she felt like
me going down your footsteps was a way
for her to have you around.
She lit a spark in me.
Yes, she did.
That's deep man. That's real deep.
But in all honesty, it was, uh.
It was you.
You lit the fire.
When you left, I was so mad.
At the world. Disappointed. Confused.
I told myself I was going
to be better than you.
I was going to be bigger, greater than you.
All I ever wanted was to
be a better person than you.
But now it's crazy.
I realized that all I wanted was was you.
All we wanted was you.
You got me now, kid.
Let's go to the big time, baby.
That's right.
Hey, hey!
Come on, come on, come on. Hey!
You sure about this?
I gotta know, bro.
Good God almighty!
This n*gga Sean, back from the dead.
Hmm.
How are you feeling? Feeling good?
Yeah I'm good.
Look, this fight should
be light work. Okay.
Hernandez is quick, but he
doesn't have a power punch.
His midsection is weak,
so if you go to the body,
you'll get him.
Got it.
We went over it a thousand times, you know.
Trust me.
I do.
Look at me Junior.
Keep it right, you hear me?
When he comes in here, to the right.
Make sure you know.
Beat this kid.
- Not too heavy.
- You can't get careless.
You're gonna get hurt. You understand?
Ladies and gentlemen,
we have an outstanding fight
for you tonight is the
wild card buy-in round.
Fighting from the red corner is the lean
and mean overnight phenomenon.
Hailing from Compton,
California, with the perfect
amateur record of 15 and
zero all coming by knockout.
Put your hands together for Sean,
Baby Jacobs Junior!
As he advances to the
semifinals of the TKO.
Pound for pound tournament.
And fighting from the blue corner.
Make no mistake, his youth is the truth.
With a record of 17 and
five. 12 by way of KO.
Put your hands together for Hurricane
Hernandez!
Boxers, center.
All right, gentlemen, you
received my instructions
in the dressing room.
Protect yourself at all times.
I expect a good, clean fight.
Touch gloves.
Go to your corner.
All right. Remember what we talked about.
Body. Body.
Don't go for the knockout.
This guy's hard knocked
down, but we're gonna
outbox him with points.
- Okay. Got it.
- Got it.
Trust me.
I think this Sean Baby
Jacobs is the real deal.
I agree. I hate to say it.
- But I agree.
- You usually agreeable Jim.
You're right.
Good work.
Hey listen, you gotta
protect yourself because.
You got a little cut right there.
You don't want to get cut up right here.
Drink it up.
Right here.
All right, round two. Here we.
Let's get it.
Don't let him get in your head.
Finish him soon.
Ref! Protect him!
Deduct a points. You cannot
hit him in the back of the head.
- It's not okay.
- I'll take care of it.
Stop crying and fight!
Stop crying and fight!
That's BS right there.
Get to your corner. Get to your corner.
Get this fight cleaner.
Hit him in the back of
the head. You all right?
n*gga fighting dirty, brother!
- He's fighting dirty.
- Easy dub.
Easy dub. Easy dub.
Get some ice on him. Cool
him down, cool him down.
You're doing great, baby
What is that?
Put him down.
Hey, no wrestling.
Let's go.
Go to your corner. Go to your corner.
And it's over.
Just like that.
Sean David Jacobs Junior,
with a knockout in round four.
I did not see that coming.
Come on. Vince.
You're looking good out there, baby.
That's right.
Left left. Right right.
Come here son.
Come holler at your pops man.
I gotta talk to you about something.
Come here, baby.
Oh, sh*t. You look good boy.
Yes sir.
Hey, we got a little situation, man.
Your boy Sean out there catching heat.
So what?
He's fighting in the underground.
I'm a professional boxer, Pops.
Yeah, that's true, but as
of last week, he entered
the TKO Sports Challenge
and he won the wild card.
So he's not an amateur out
there in the streets no more, so.
You might face him in the finals.
Should we be worried?
I ain't gonna say we should be worried.
But he got his dad training him.
His dad, Sean Jacobs, the Sean Jacobs.
Ain't nobody heard from him in years.
Till his a*s pop up on the internet.
Sean Junior.
God damn it. He cold knocked out ringer.
Then he got in the wild card
and knocked out Hurricane.
All his wins been by knockout.
Well, like I said, should we be worried?
One thing I know about Sean
Senior, he love that money.
So if I can pursue him with that,
probably get him out the way.
And you won't have
to face him in the final.
Do what you gotta do, Pops.
I will. Like I always do.
- I love you, boy.
- I love you too.
- Get your a*s back out there.
- Yes, sir.
Big Sean almighty.
My light skinned friend.
Forgone.
Old Neasy. Never a dull moment.
What's up fam? Long time no see.
So what do I owe the pleasure?
I'm gonna go ahead and
cut straight to the chase.
All right? I'm a business man.
I always have been and always will be.
And you're an artist.
You know, sometimes I'm to go together,
and sometimes they don't.
I'm not following.
Well, your son been doing his thing lately,
and I want to congratulate him.
But, you know, you've been
gone the whole time, and it's
like I've been his father.
And, I took him in and
taught him everything
he knows about boxing.
You taught Junior everything
he knows about boxing.
I don't know, but I think a
lot of that might be raw talent.
Let's cut straight to the chase, all right?
I want you to train my boy.
I know Junior is good,
but he's not pro material.
He's still got a lot to learn, man.
So let me get this straight.
You want to offer me
a job under you to train
your son instead of mine?
n*gga, are you on crack?
You think I'm gonna abandon my boy twice?
First of all, crack is wack.
And like I told you, I'm a businessman.
I always get what I want.
So I got an offer you can't refuse.
You train my boy.
I have you seeing money
you never even dreamed of.
And guess what?
You know that little court case you got
to deal with in that little
town you crawled out of.
Kiss it on bye bye.
- Then we all win, right?
- How you know about that?
Well, man, you know
I've always been a player.
I got a little lady friend
that's close to the judge.
And you don't train my son. Well, sh*t.
I guess you go back for violating parole.
Choice is yours.
No, see, it doesn't work that way.
I already completed my
hours. My case is closed.
Why do people always
think things is closed?
Y'all don't know. Things can reopen.
The judge has to sign off on that.
Until then, if I do recall,
you have a court appearance
on the 23rd of this month, right?
Then that case is closed.
But until then, you know them
hours getting sh*t up and down.
Man, why are you looking
at me like that, man?
You've been M.I.A.
Most of your child's life anyway.
Well, there's a little
bit more time gonna do.
You gonna do that street sh*t?
- You can do that.
- Little dirty snake.
I always learned you can't be clean
if you don't get dirty first.
This is bullshit. You know it.
You know that. Junior deserves this chance.
He's worked too hard for it.
I can step down, but Junior's not going to.
That's all I needed to hear.
Because the boy is nothing without you.
Come on.
Come on, champ. We we
know who the real gold is.
That's you.
So look, man, just come
join me and my team.
Come get this real money.
And sh*t, we have Junior being
been sparring partner again
and whatever little...
hope and dreams that
he had of ever becoming
whatever you was trying to be.
- sh*t.
- And what if I say no?
I guess you go back to
jail for a year, and the only
boxing he'll be doing is
boxing boxes all the way
in the back of a grocery store.
So hope you get my drift.
Stands for the next 24
hours. Be gone n*gga.
Dipping out on us again.
My work here is done. Sean's good now.
Aaron can help him get to
the next phase of his career.
He's a professional.
He needs professionals.
- He don't need me no more.
- You're right.
He don't need you.
He needed you then. I needed you then.
When mom died, we needed you then.
When you was a fighter, people needed you.
No one needs you anymore, Sean.
So I guess you just dip out
when you don't feel needed.
Are you that pathetic that
you need to feel needed?
What the hell?
Yo, you got a big mouth
for such a little person?
I've been told I have the
mouth of my father all my life.
Look, I know I'm just a
kid, and I don't know much,
but one thing I do know.
Is that ever since you showed, things have
been hittin' different.
Sean's been happy. Erin's been happy.
We've been making money.
Everything's been good.
Why are you leaving now?
Because I'm not a father.
I don't wanna be one.
I got my own sh*t I gotta deal with.
And I don't want you guys involved in it.
And like you said, I'm not needed anymore.
Why do you need to be
needed when you're wanted?
Doesn't it matter that we all want you?
Please stay.
Please, dad.
All my life, I've never had a father.
So I've never missed it. But now I do.
And I can't go back to
not having one anymore.
Please stay.
Look, kid, you got to get off my car.
Come on.
Tell your brother good luck for me, okay?
Okay, but before you go.
You should have this.
What's this?
I don't know.
Aaron told me to give you it.
He said that you'd
leave soon and to give it
to you when you did.
Mr. Jacobs, case dismissed.
Hey, Pat.
We got some special boys. I mean, Junior...
He's gone pro, just like
you knew he would have.
Just like his dad.
I know what you did.
And I understand now why.
I couldn't see what you see.
Which is the importance of family.
And I didn't know how
important that was until now.
The other day, O'Neill
threatened to hurt Junior.
All because he didn't
want to see Junior get
to a certain position.
And the fact of what I could
have done could have hurt
my boys and just shook me.
And that's when I knew that
I cared more about my boys
than I do myself.
And I had to dip out.
I couldn't have my troubles
spill on to Tony or Junior.
They don't deserve that.
They deserve better than that.
Junior deserves better than that.
I don't I don't want to see him suffer.
That's why I have to make that...
difficult choice that I had to leave.
That wasn't your choice to make, though.
It wasn't.
Is it true you only agreed to train me
because you needed money, man.
Come on, son, it wasn't like that.
Then what was it like
then? Tell me, was we just...
Just a way for you to
pay your little court dues,
or did you need more alcohol.
Was that it?
- Did you ever really even care?
- I do.
Look, son, if I'm gonna be honest.
Yeah, I got in some trouble,
and I had to complete some
community service.
And I use you to finish those hours.
I knew it.
You're still the same old man, huh?
You'll never change.
And then you leave.
Again.
I don't know why I ever trusted a snake a*s
n*gg*r like you, man.
Look, you can, um, go and
finish up what you're doing, bro.
I don't ever want to see you again, though.
Son. Wait, wait wait.
- Wait for what?
- Okay.
You're right, you're right. Okay.
I am a snake. And I use
you for my personal gain.
But that was at first.
I didn't know how much I
was going to learn to love you,
how much I was going to
enjoy spending time with you.
And now.
I'm an entirely different
person, and all I can
think about is helping you
get to where you need to be.
So if you love spending
so much time with us,
why the hell would you leave?
Explain that one to me.
Because they were gonna hurt you, okay?
O'Neill threatened to hurt
you if I kept training you.
He threatened to throw me
in jail if I didn't walk away.
So, son, I'm so sorry,
but I didn't have a choice.
You always got a choice.
Especially somebody like you.
Okay.
You're right. I do always have a choice.
And I should make the choice.
When you were young to stay.
But I didn't. So now I'm asking you.
Son, please forgive me and
give me the chance to stay.
- Yeah, I don't know.
- Come on, bro.
We need him. He's our dad.
Come on. Son.
Son, what do you say
that we finish this together?
Strong.
What about O'Neil? How you gonna fix that?
Don't worry about O'Neil, nephew.
- I can handle that.
- Sure?
Yeah.
You know, he's crazy.
Last time I checked, my last
name was Jacobs, and everybody
was telling me about this man.
I was named after,
that could have been one of
the greatest fighters in the world.
Was the greatest fighter out of Compton.
And now I could finally
say that's the only man I can
find worth in calling dad.
So, Vince, he's got height
and reach on you, so you
gotta keep the fight inside.
Show em what you're made of.
Show em what you're made of.
Keep your guards up. Keep 'em up.
Looking good, looking good
looking good, looking good.
There you go.
- There you go.
- Chop that tree down.
- There you go. There you go.
- Move, move, move, move!
Let me see the footwork.
Come on, keep work in. Yeah, keep work in.
Good work.
Good punch Junior.
- Move boy! Go!
- Yeah!
Yeah come on boy.
Come on son.
Come on Junior. Ha ha!
All right.
Thirty minutes.
Take a seat.
It's all there.
Look, O. You got people, I got people.
I don't think neither one of us want that.
All right.
Fair enough.
Whoever wins, wins.
Leave Sean and his family
alone. Let him be with his son.
Fair enough.
You got my word.
Sean Jacobs Junior to the scale
- Let's go champ.
- Fits on you, let's go.
146.8.
It's alright, champ. It's alright, champ.
We're looking for Mr. Sean Jacobs.
- What?
- Sean, what's going on, man?
I don't know.
Uh, excuse me, officer. Is there a problem?
You are under arrest for
the violation of your parole.
Well, wait. What is
this all about, officer?
Hold on. Dad, what's up.
What's going on? What are you doing, bro?
- Why are you getting arrested?
- Um. It's a legal issue.
- What you do, what you do.
- Come on. Nah, come on.
- Hold on, homey.
- Hey.
Didn't I tell you this was gonna happen?
Come on, man, why are
you looking so surprised?
You know, I get everything I want.
Maybe next time you'll listen.
What?
Hey, hey.
We had a deal.
Oh, no. We ain't had nothing.
That was money that was owed.
Yeah, the only deal I had was
with your little a*s over here.
Get a cut of everything he
did once he started a little
professional boxing career.
The word is on the street, you two.
sh*t. Y'all cashing in big bucks.
The only problem is, I'm not seeing none.
- Is that true?
- Yeah.
No sh*t. I guess we're even now.
Get his beige a*s up out of here.
So you get the police involved, bro.
Hey.
- It's like that.
- It's all good.
- What they doing these days?
- Watch out!
It's all good.
It's all good.
Trippin' bro.
So, look, I got a friend
down at the DA's office.
He said he can get you out.
Only thing is this LA County.
So it's gonna be a few days.
Damn. Sean's flight's tomorrow.
I know, I don't think he could
do this without you, Sean.
Get him on-site. I want to talk to him.
Yeah.
I guess O'Neill played us all, huh?
Yeah.
I don't understand why, though.
Why he got to be so pressed about this.
Because you were a
threat to him and his son.
He's so scared that
you're going to beat Vince.
He got me locked up so I couldn't help you.
Look son. You don't need me.
You never needed me.
This entire time has been all you.
You just had to find that dog
inside of you and unleash him.
Dad, we came so far together.
I don't think I can do this without you.
Well, you can, and you will.
Son, you got to carry on
the Jacobs family name.
Legacy.
Listen, son, I get it now.
The reason why I stopped.
So you can keep going.
It's never about me. This
has always been about you.
You deserve this life, not me.
And win or lose.
I'm just happy that I
finally got to be your father.
When I lose my a*s, I'm gonna win.
I don't care what I gotta do.
I'm gonna get this W for you.
For mom.
- T.
- Uncle Aaron.
Everybody.
Dad, I love you.
You're not a bad guy.
I love you too, son.
I'm gonna do this.
I got you.
I got you.
To the right.
Now entering the ring is
the true Cinderella story.
I mean, this kid came out of nowhere.
Let's not forget that his
father is the one and only
Sean Jacobs, who is at one
point the world's champion,
but suddenly stopped his
career without a rematch.
And he showed promise.
Sean Senior has been training
example with the recently
arrested this past
weekend at the weigh in for
a reckless driving incident
that happened months ago.
Well, we aren't here
to talk about his father.
Make no mistake, this kid has definitely
made a name for himself.
Correct.
He truly has what it takes to
take over the Jacobs name.
Yes.
They call him the Flash
due to his speed and agility.
This kid is fun to watch.
And we shall see tonight if he does have
what it takes -Mmhmm. We should.
Yeah
All I know is get rich or die try in
Every time I leave the
house I tuck the nine
In case a lame n*gga try to take mine
I've got ties, better
watch out for my n*gg*s
In the streets where
the hustle never sleeps
Grounding hard, chasing
cane got me sheets
It's gonna be a robbery
Like den of thieves
Don't give a f*ck cause
everybody gotta eat
And here he is, folks.
The most esteemed boxer in the game.
Vincent O'Neill is a complete monster.
I know we talked about
Sean Junior, but let me say
I'm not sure he's going
to be able to beat this guy.
Six foot one, 146.8.
All muscle and one of the
hardest punchers in the game.
This would be hard for anyone to beat.
Definitely a challenge.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's fight time.
First in the red corner.
He reigns from Compton, California.
Fighting out of Aaron Place Gym.
He's lean and he's lethal.
Give it up for Sean Baby Jacobs Junior!
And in the blue corner.
Also reigning from Compton, California.
With paws that pack power.
The JBB light weight champion
of the world Vince O'Neil!
Boxers center.
All right, gentlemen, you
receive my instructions
in the dressing room.
I expect a good, clean fight.
Protect yourself at all times.
Obey my commands at all times.
Any questions from the red corner
- Corner?
- You need the cops?
Any questions from the blue corner?
- Didn't call them.
- Touch gloves.
Let's go. Hey!
Let's go.
Round one.
This is the most technical
bout I've ever witnessed.
- Oh.
- Oh!
That was a great round two.
A great round two.
And it's round three.
Box!
Come on, get back in here. Get
back in here, man. Come on...
Keep it up!
I don't know, Jim.
Both these guys look like
they're in incredible shape.
This is going to be a good one.
I agree with you, Mark.
This looks like this can
go the entire 12 rounds.
Mhm.
Where's your daddy at?
Where's your daddy at?
- Go.
- Snitch.
- Sit down, sit down.
- Sit down son.
Sit down.
You got this Sean. Come on. Don't give up
- You got it, Sean.
- Yes.
You have to call the fight. Listen to me.
Look at me, son.
Look at me.
Suck it up. Suck it up.
He's supposed to be here.
I can't do it without him.
He's supposed to be here.
What if your dad was sitting right there.
What would he tell you to do?
What will you tell you to do, Sean?
Huh?
Come on son.
- He'd tell you not to quit.
- He'd tell me not to quit.
You know why? Why?
Because I'm a Jacobs, -Say it loud.
Come on.
- Because I'm a Jacobs.
- That's right.
Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Let's go.
- We got it, baby.
- Let's go.
- Knock him out!
Let's go.
Get off the ropes! Get off the ropes!
Get up, get up, get up, get up!
Fight and get up fight and get up!
Hey, baby.
What's wrong with you?
I didn't raise you to be no quitter.
- Now did I?
- Mom!
Mom, I can't. I need dad.
Hell, I needed you. Why'd you leave me?
Oh hush, baby. I never left you.
I've been right here.
Always right here with
you. Every win, every loss.
I've been there.
- I can't, I just can't.
- Hey.
I can't finish.
Can't isn't in your vocabulary, son.
This is your time.
This is your moment.
What are you going to do with it?
You can't get up and
win or you can stay down.
Either way, I'll always be proud of you.
Get up Sean!
- Get the hell up now, son.
- I love you, mom.
Get up Sean!
Get the hell up now, son.
Dad?
Yeah, Junior. It's me.
Get up and fight!
Yeah Junior.
It's me. Get up and fight!
Now!
It's me Junior!
Get the hell up!
Let's go! Flash!
He's out, he's out, he's out!
He's out. He's out.
Oh!
Yes! Whoa!
- Hey!
- Whoa!
Sean Baby Jacobs, just
won fourth round by TKO.
The last time we saw that is
when the late, great George
Foreman took the title from Joe Frazier.
What's that 1973?
- 1973.
You know it.
You did it. You did it!
I told you, I told you you didn't need me.
You did all this yourself.
Baby Jacobs.
- Baby.
- How the hell you get here?
Turns out I got some
friends in pretty high places.
Stop playing. I love you, man.
Hear me? I love you, Pops.
I love you, too.

Take me home. No you don't.
I demand you to take me home.
You live with him?
You won!

Uncle.
Uncle Hank. Is. In the house.
Dinner is served.
Bam! Ha ha!
This food is looking b*mb, Hank.
Okay, Hank, put your foot in that one.
You better shut off the cooking skills.
You better know it.
Y'all don't know.
But back in the day, I used to
chop it up in the kitchen, baby.
Man, it got off into
that little boxing thing.
I would have been a chef.
- Okay?
- Would have been a chef.
I'm not going to be
able to eat all this Unc.
This is too much. It's not going to happen.
Let me tell you something.
You gonna eat that.
I'm not gonna get big
like you. You big back.
Just cause you big back and you big back.
Look, look, everybody,

All around quiet down.
Let me have y'all's attention for a second.

And I'm proud of you, man.
- Congratulations.

Also, congrats on my new room.

Okay. Slow down.
You ain't gonna have nothing

Let him live!
Up in here.
Gonna be some homework in the house.
- Homework in the house!
- Stop it.
You're done, you're done, you're done.
- You're finished.
- Listen, listen, listen.
Did not say that.
He always so hungry.
Wait wait. Hold up. Hold up.
Hold up, hold up everybody.
You rushing with all that?
I got a text from my boys out in Oakland.
Said they got a street fight coming up.
My big bro, he's a pro.
He don't do no street fights
anymore. $25,000 buy in.
I think we can make an exception.
What You think -Winners it's work.
All I've ever wanted was
to make it out of the hood
From bottom to the top
try in to get up out the mud
Oh, nobody told me it would be easy
Did it on my own they can't see me
Momma told me I was going places
Pops told me to never be complacent
Can't wait to see that
look upon their faces
When I pull up and
tell them that I made it
Took a lot of L's and
turned them in to M's
Had some hard times
But I always kept it real
n*gg*s didn't wanna
see me win but I did it
Now I'm buy in shorties
everything on their wish list
Show me I got money I got time
Books on my bread on my grime
Can't forget about the
times I've has to fight
Times like this
I remember there were days in the hood
When I used to wish and pray for
Times like this
I swear it's perfect timing
All I live for is
Times like this
For the good times and the bad times
I'll never regret the
Times like this
Always remember
Times like this
The hustle and the
pain That's all I ever know
Then I hit the come up Had to let it go
I'm a rough rider n*gg*s can't see me
Put that on my momma city sweat
Momma told me I was going places
Pops told me not to be complacent
Can't wait to see the
look up on their faces
When I pull up and
tell them that I made it
Took a lot of L's and
I turned them into M's
Had some hard times
but I always kept it real
n*gg*s didn't wanna
see me win but I did it
Now I buy in shorties
everything on their wish list
Show me I've got money I've got time
Books on my bread on my grime
Can't forget all the
times I had to fight
Times like this
I remember there were days in the hood
When I used to wish and pray for
Times like this
I swear...
