Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): All fighters
are pig-headed some way or other. Some part
of them always thinks they know better than
you about something.
Frankie Dunn: Can you uh...spare a few minutes for
the Immaculate Conception?
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): Truth is,
even if they're wrong. Even if that one
thing is going to be the ruin of them, if
you can beat that last bit out of 'em, then
they ain't fighters at all.
Frankie Dunn: Thought I said I’d see you Monday.
Maggie Fitzgerald: You sure did, boss.
Frankie Dunn: That was last night.
Maggie Fitzgerald: You said not to argue with you.
Frankie Dunn: Damn woman won't do a thing I tell
her.
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): You want my
advice?
Frankie Dunn: What? Where are your shoes?
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): I’m airing out
my feet.
Frankie Dunn: You got big holes in your socks.
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): Oh, they're
not that big.
Frankie Dunn: Didn't I give you money for some new
ones?
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): These are my
sleeping socks. My feet like a little air at
night.
Frankie Dunn: How come
you're wearing 'em in the daytime, then?
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): Cos my
daytime socks got too many holes in 'em.
Frankie Dunn: Well, if I give you some more money,
you buy some new socks. Please.
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): Well, I’d be
tempted, but I couldn't say for sure. Might
find its way
to the track.
CROWD : Oh!
Eddie Scrap-Iron Dupris (Voice-over): Didn't take
Maggie long to
hit her stride.
Maggie Fitzgerald: I got the breathing thing down.
Frankie Dunn: No, you ain't breathing because you're
knocking 'em out in the first round.
Maggie Fitzgerald: Thought that was the point.
Frankie Dunn: The point is to get good. Can't get
good if you keep knocking 'em out in the
first round. How am I going to get you
fights? Nobody wants to see their fighter
embarrassed.
Maggie Fitzgerald: Why am I still doing four-rounders,
boss?
Frankie Dunn: Cos you haven't got the lungs for six
rounds, that's why.
Maggie Fitzgerald: I do if I keep knocking 'em out
in the first round. |
