Pit Fighter

And now the man you have been waiting for!

El Yanqui!

Yanqui!

From Sao Paulo, Brazil, Diablo Calvera!

Calvera! El Asesino.

Are you ready? Are you ready?

Anything goes! Fight!

No! No! No! No!

Come on!

Yeah! Come on!

Get him! Get him!

Yeah, Yanqui!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

La cara!

Yeah!

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

The winner!El Yanqui!

He cannot be beaten! El Yanqui!

Yanqui! Yanqui! Get him out!

Yanqui!

Manolo!

Another win, huh? Keep the crowd happy.

- Don't spend it all at once. - Did you count it yourself? All right.

Let's go!

Five years, fiighter.

Five years, you made a lot of people a lot of money.

Shh! You know who.

Hey, that's yours. You earned it.

Okay? Yeah! Good man.

Adios! Adios!

You know, he and I are brothers.

Oh, shit!

Nathan. Nathan.

You're shot up pretty bad, old friend. Save your strength, all right?

Marianne! Marianne!

You hang in there, all right? Come on! Get him up!

Get him in the truck!

I may have done you a serious injustice, senor.

Where am I?

In my line of work, it pays to be able to assess a man's material worth.

His fiiscal prowess.

Only I can decide whether I work for money or for glory.

- I can't breathe. - I'm not cheap.

The Marietta wouldn't expect me to work for nothing, so they will have to pay.

However, I owe them a considerable amount,

so this will simply go against my debenture.

A drop of mouse piss in a sizable ocean of excrement.

You'll do about fine.

Just try not to breathe deep.

The stitches on your chest will fissure your tissue.

You'll owe the Marietta for my service.

That's the ironic injustice of all this.

Is she dead?

You're the sole survivor, as far as I know...

and you're looking at the only surgeon in this whole flea-bitten province.

They'll bring me back in a week, get your stitches out before they rot.

Infection'll kill you deader than a 45 down here.

I don't understand what you're saying.

Como? Eso es un guero maricon.

You seem to be recovering. How does what's left of your head feel?

I don't remember who I am. What am I doing here?

Well, your existence has been simplifiied then.

He says you're working La Marietta...

and that could entail any manner of thing.

You owe them a substantial amount.

I hope your trade is a lucrative one.

The Marietta?

You suffered massive cranial trauma, a serious concussion,

extensive tissue damage.

not to mention the loss of a fiist-sized portion of your brain matter.

It's reasonable to expect that may have caused a mild amnesiac situation.

I daresay you will regain certain memories.

Don't expect it to happen overnight, however.

- I've lost my memory! - They're dangerous people! Please don't ask me about them!

I have a family I'd like to see again someday, so don't make the mistake!

of thinking that because I'm an American, I'm any more your friend than they are!

Why, I would sell you out in a gnat's heartbeat if I thought it would buy me some credit!

Actions, smells, sounds, like certain familiar tunes on the radio!

um, uh, an intimate face can sometimes act like the key!

to the metaphysical door your mind has closed!

Who did this to me, Doc?

Time to remove your stitches! You'll have to stop talking! It will hurt!

May I suggest you take a shot of this?

I don't drink.

You remembered that!

We get caught with this load, we all go down!

They'd be more suspicious if someone who looks like you gets involved.

- How do I look,Jack? - Like nothing I've ever seen before!

This could be trickier than we anticipated!

I don't know! I don't see you have a lot of options, kid!

They run these mule teams, shouldering bundles of weed!

up into Arizona, New Mexico, but it's dangerous work, and it pays shit!

That is, if you don't end up in la tumba del mojado.

The wetback's grave!

And you just pay the interest on the loan, basically!

I recommend a trade, if you've got one!

And if you don't, fiind one! Or else-

Come on! Let's get out of here!

All these sweaty men make me nervous, man!

Come on!

Hey, maybe I can fiight!

No! Uh-uh-uh-uh!

You see these guys? They're hard-core cage fiighters!

They will eat you for breakfast!

And in case you haven't noticed, your skin is just a few shades lighter than everybody else!

Okay? You stand out like a diamond on a goat's ass!

Don't even think about it!

This feels familiar!

Yeah, well, so will the hospital! Do you understand?

- Come on! - Find me some gloves!

Whoa!

Your stitches haven't even healed, okay?

Your skull is being held together by bailing wire!

Think about it! This is not your game!

Now, I suggest we get out before you die!

- Whoa! - Whoa!

Can I make money doing this?

Yeah, maybe!

This suit is 20 years old!

Why do you try so hard?

Because I'm an Indian, you know?

I couldn't go to their schools!

My home where I grew up had a straw roof!

Just a couple of drops in the sea of life's injustices, fiighter!

Well, you ever wanna know what God thinks about money!

you look at those to whom he gives it to!

Wish me luck, eh?

This guy's, uh-

no girls, no, uh, drinking...

no gambling, nothing.

He donates all his pocket money to the priests at the church!

And he gives all his free time! He helps out, you know?

And in return, he gets a cot and free meals!

He'd make a dream fiighter!

Carlos, cabron, chasing women is a form of higher education!

I have little faith in men that don't!

Yes! Si. Si. Yes, right!

But, uh- But, see, but he's from el otro lado.

You know? I mean, who knows what his real problem is, you know?

Uh, but,you know, nobody's beat him yet.

He's disciplined.

He'd be perfect for your stable, jefe.

Are you implying that I may turn a profiit?

He has a theory- este loco-

about not humiliating the opponent!

Uh, he allows them to punch him, you know!

and pummel him and show off and show their stuff, you know!

for rounds and rounds, and then suddenly- flat!

He knocks 'em out cold!

Pero si, and then he's happy!

that he hasn't made them, you know, lose face!

I mean, it's- it's the perfect showmanship!

He'll be very popular! You'll make a fortune!

And you know how they feel about the gringos in la tierra blanca! Right?

Three months, cabron.

We show a profiit in three months!

or you owe the interest of his debt!

For the time wasted! Understand?

Si. Si. Gracias.

Three months, cabron.

This gringo had a valuable talent before!

A real valuable talent!

You are sure this gringo doesn't remember anything?

No! Nada, nada, nada.

Okay!

You know that guy will screw us if he's got a chance, boss!

He's a snake! I don't like him!

Carlitos, that man is hungry!

And hungry men always have their uses!

Remember that!

It's not a friendly crowd, okay?

They're gonna try to intimidate you, 'cause they know it's your fiirst fiight!

But you just do the way you do in the gym, you'll be okay!

Coming to us all the way from Esperanza, Mexico!

undefeated in 14 matches-

Well, they haven't seen your color yet!

You ready to start, all right?

Zambista!

Go!

Known only as El Yanqui!

!Yanqui!

Are you ready? Are you ready?

!Yanqui!Yanqui! !Yanqui!Yanqui!

Hit him!

You have to hit him, or else we're headed for the minus pool!

We're both screwed! You understand?

He's the champion! Gotta let him have his time out of respect!

- I'll beat him with dignity! - Oh, yeah?

- Yeah! - Well, fiirst you gotta hit him, my friend!

Hit him!

Yanqui! Yanqui! Yanqui!

!Yanqui!Yanqui!

Listen to me! Hey, you, listen!

I took a chance on you, okay? I put everything into you!

The whole church thing, the Virgin Mary and everything!

And I fell for it like a sucker? Is that your game?

Third round defeat is acceptable!

What? What are you talking about?

For a champion!

Okay! Okay!
