Here we go.
Our first fighters up tonight.
Russ versus Jake.
Russ is clearly emerging
in the circuit community
as a formidable opponent
and fan favorite.
The action starts. Now.
And with that, Jake is done.
It's another
decisive victory for Russ
as his circuit stock
continues to climb.
He's definitely
a fierce competitor
worth keeping an eye on.
Wow.
I like these numbers.
Let's do this.
Hey.
Hey, I want this guy.
Whatever it takes.
Absolutely, boss.
Try and have him
stop by the compound?
Yeah.
Hey, Russ.
How's it going?
Congratulations
on that last fight.
- I was really enjoying...
- Do you have my money?
Of course I have your money.
Then why are you still talking?
Well, I have
a proposition for you.
Make it worth my time.
Of course.
Sounds good.
See you later.
That can't be right.
What can't be right?
My reflection.
I'm starting to
feel it these days.
Samson. You've provided
anything a wife could ask for.
Maybe it's time
for you to retire.
No.
I can still do this.
Yeah.
Honestly, I'd be surprised
if you said different.
Now get to work, old man.
Yes, ma'am.
Now that's music.
I don't like
when you're watching me.
Come on, girl.
Keep playing that music.
That's beautiful.
No.
The kids at school
are teasing me
that you're a dancer,
not a fighter.
They say what?
This is what's hot online.
Been there, done that.
In his time, he was
one of the best fighters ever.
You should have seen him.
He was fearless.
Well, these days,
if you're not online,
you're nothing.
You're late for school.
Let's get busy.
It's time. It's time.
I'm ready for the fight
No fear, no doubt
I'm ready for the fight
So I'm knocking at your door
with the three one two
The Father, the Son
yes the Holy Ghost
So I'm blessed in my mind
I'm blessed in my will
I'm blessed in my body
I'm blessed in my spirit
I'm blessed,
I'm ready to get serious
I speak like to my life
it's a yearly paradise
I listen to my words
they can be heard
By me, you, who, you
In the gym training hard
I can put my body through it
I am up there's some downs,
there's downs, so many downs
I was born to fight,
I will never give up
I will walk through the fire
and I will feel the flames
My body's heating up
my heart is pumping blood
Sweat's running down my face
No one's got to
deal with this
It's time to validate
Listen to your heart beat
Down on your knees

Life is a game play
I wake up every morning
with my mind on freedom
Life is a game play
Yeah, yeah
I walk by faith
and not by sight
I walk in God's love
and Jesus is inside me
A world is a place
where a man wants to fight
He believes in his own self
he believes in his own say
You better watch out
Cause here I come.
I'm covered with the blood...

enough to go to school,
you can't do your tapes.
Oh, please.
Samson. He teaches
classes in person.
I found them online.
I can pay for them myself.
With what money?
Since your dad disappeared,
I have been trying
to get back to work.
But, even this house
is temporary.
We wouldn't have it
without Aunt Janet.
I never ask for anything.
You know that.
Please.

All right, so think
of yourself as a fighter.
You know, that's
what we are, you know,
we actually take
Martial Arts and Boxing
combining it all together,
and putting it into
a form of exercise.
When you can get, you can
actually be a real warrior.
You can fight with music, okay.
So put your
hands up like this again.

keep your chin in the middle.
Okay. Arms and legs.

- Oss.
Good job guys.
Well done.
Okay let me see you guys
go ahead and practice,
while everybody
works on their techniques.
I'll work with you. Let me show
some techniques we're doing.
Remember when you
go back to your guard.
Don't have your wrist like that.
Try to keep that wrist straight
so you go back just like that.
Good, now when you punch,
let me see you do that.
Good. Right. So if you
go in like this, right?
If your wrist is like this,
you might break it.
So just keep it,
see how straight that is.
Then you Go Bam.
- Good, good, good job today.
- Thank you.
You're awesome.
So how you like class?
Oh, it was the best class ever.

watching your tapes.
Never misses a day.
This was a real treat for her.
So when are
you guys coming back?
Ah, I we really can't afford to.
- Come back to class.
- Maybe not.
Do you love it?
I love it so much.
I wish I could come.
You'll work hard?
Yes, I practice with
the tapes every day.
Well, that's cool,
so I know how we can do it.
How?
What if she comes in,
help clean the studio.
I'll give her some free classes.
- Really?
- Yeah. I'll trade you just like that.
Can I mom?
I mean, I can't say no to that.

Okay, okay.

He invited me to go swimming.
Just get back by eight, please.
You still have homework to do?
Okay.
Basically, we're...
So I hear you taking this
dancing martial arts class.
Okay, so it's called Tae Bo,
and it's this
really cool mix of, like,
martial arts and like,
intense fighting
turned into like,
a dance routine.
Pretty nice.
Watch this.
Watch this.
Okay. You need
to see my guy.
Like he's been there
and done that.
Winner! Winner!
- Circles, circles.
- 6,7,8.
Good job, you guys got this.
Hey you guys do a good job.
All right, now,

Just like that.

You picking it up now.
You're doing good.
Now let me see you.
You're well done now.
Are you ready?
Right. So let me,
let me have you tell them

Everybody go back to your guard.

That's it, do it again one more time.
Come on

Give us some energy.
Ready. Go.
Go back to guard.
Yeah. One more time.
Go back to guard.
Good. Palms up.
Bring it down.
- Bow Oss.
- Bow Oss.
Good job, y'all.
Yeah, yeah.
Hey. How's it going?
Yeah, I'm here at
the Grand Conquest.
Dude, I need
a new champ, like, now?
Just trying to find
new talent, you know.
Lots of good fighters here.
But I think they're
too clean cut.
I'll keep on it, though.
The search continues.
Good evening, valued viewers.
Once again, live from Las Vegas.
It's The Circuit.
We start this evening
with a couple of new faces
to the Circuit.
It's Mario versus Brian,
in what's sure to be
a contrast of styles
from these fighters.
The fight starts. Now.
And that's the fight.
It's over.
An impressive victory for Mario
in his main ring Circuit debut.
He may not be in the running
for Sexiest man of the year
or have
the most fluid technique,
but you certainly
have to give Mario
extra marks for showmanship.
Chalk one up
for Mario as he moves on.
Yeah, I'm looking at
the numbers now.
Like I predicted,
this new talent isn't doing it.
If you ask me,
well, maybe we need to go
in a different direction.
Next up on the card,
two more rising stars
in the circuit,
Brian versus Aziz,
in what looks to be
a very balanced battle.
Brian is undefeated in his
young career thus far
and has a growing fan base.
The fight starts. Now.
Aziz with a roundhouse
knockout and it's all over.
Brian is out cold.
Aziz is victorious.
The good news for Aziz
is he will immediately advance.
The bad news is
his next opponent is Russ.
It's Russ versus Aziz.
Get your bets in.
This should be
a highlight fight.
Here we go.
The fight begins. Now.
Come on.
That's it.
Aziz is out.
Another vicious
beating from Russ,
and he's not sticking around
to see if Aziz
is even still alive.
The most important thing
is about working out
and learn how to find yourself.
You gotta be willing
to go through the fire.
And I know you know
what I'm talking about.
Sometimes when you start
working out in this room,
we start sweating.
Your body starts to feel it.
Sometimes you want to give up
and you want to quit.
But the most
important thing is that
you don't want to do that.
Feel what's going on
and once you feel
what's going on,
then you start putting it in.
Now try this.
Say this out loud.
Say I look and act
like my mind and will
that's important
is go from the inside out.
If you go from the inside out,
then you're going to see
a lot of changes in your body.
Say this out loud,
today is a reality
and tomorrow is a promise.
And yesterday was history.
And don't quit
and don't give up.
- All right.
- 6,7,8,1,2,3.
Hold on. Hold on,
everybody be okay.
She'll be all right.
Give her some space, though.
You all right?
Good.
Did you eat?
All right. Just pull
your feet up like this.
Okay, so we did all
the needed exams today.
So Doctor J. will call you
within the next couple of days,
but she can go home for now.
This way please.
Live again from Las Vegas.
It's The Circuit.
Welcome back, valued viewers.
Up next, we have
what's sure to be
a crowd pleasing battle.
It's rising Circuit star Russ
versus the wild man Mario.
Two intense warriors
who will be the victor tonight?
Get your bets in.
The fight starts. Now.
And that's it.
As usual,
Russ isn't sticking around.
Leave Mario to the medics.
Another victory for Russ.
And Mario looks
to be severely injured.
Russ is just a brutal fighter.
Russ' business here is done.
We got all the money
on you, you moron.
Yeah.
Hey. Yeah, I'm looking
at the numbers now.
Honestly, this new
talent isn't doing it.
- What?
- If you ask me,
maybe we should go with
a little bit more
aggressive approach.
I kind of have an idea.
I got to go,
I got a call on the line.
Hi, Sarah.
Yeah, I'm calling you
for Doctor J.
Hello.
One moment please.
Hi, Sarah.
We did a biopsy on the mass
in her stomach,
and it revealed
cancerous. Yes.
Why?
Why her?
We have options of treatment.
She's young
and she'll do very well.
So let's make
an appointment next week.
And we'll start
the chemotherapy.
Okay. Thank you.
We'll be there.
I'm looking at the numbers.
I don't like them.
You know that,
everyone wants Dirk.
Fuck, Dirk?
How can I help you?
You know what?
Bring me another champ.
What about
Junior, Mr. O?
Go, go convince them.
Okay, I'll see what I can do.
No, you know what,
don't see what you could do.
Make them do it.
Copy that.
Relax.
1,2,2,2.
Good. Slip.
1,2.
2,2.
One more.
One more.
This is it. Turn!
I'll teach him a lesson.
Mr. B.
Hello, Junior.
Boss feels you're ignoring him.
As I said before,
I'm not interested
in an underground tournament.
You know that, he's ready
to give you a raise, right?
I mean,
or do you want us to make sure
that you can't fight again?
As I said,
no means no.
Then you leave us no choice.
- Hello.
- Hey. How you doing?
She's dealing with it.
It's uh, hard to accept.
Well, I'm coming by, but don't
tell her I'm coming, okay.
You don't have to.
But if you did
it would be amazing.
Maybe I'll cheer up.
- Okay.
- I'll be there in a minute.
All right. Take care.
I have a surprise for you.
- Samson.
- Hey. How you doing?
- How you doing?
- Good. Thank you.
That's good.
How are the little
tiger been doing you still
I haven't seen you
in a long time.
I've been okay.
But you know how to
fight though, right?
Because I haven't
seen you in a long time.
You still got that, will?
Hopefully.
You still got that fire?
- Yes.
- Well, I know you have it.
Yeah.
Well, you showed me when you
came to my Tae Bo studio.
You showed me you have heart.
What can you do?
- Fight.
- Fight. That's right.
Put your hand up here like this.
Put your other hand up.
Put 'em together.
- Who hands are those?
- Mine.
So where's the power?
- With me?
- That's right.
It's in your hands.
So that's what
we're going to have to do.
We going to have to fight.
And I know you can do it,
because you showed me,
every day you came
into that studio, you fought
even though it was your
first time walking in that door.
What did you do?
You fought you got on that stage
and you put your heart
and soul behind it.
Even though you get tired,
and you felt some pain.
You just
fought right through it.
Now we need you to fight right now.
- Okay.
Are you willing to do that?
Yes, yes.
Yeah, I got to
see it in your eyes
cuz if I can
see it in your eyes.
I know it's in your heart.
So let's go forward.
That's what I'm talking about.
70 grand.
That's just a base estimate
that doesn't even
cover complications.
I don't have that kind of money.
There's charities.
There's all kind of grants.
There's all kinds of things
Sarah we can do
to get this money.
But we don't have
that kind of time.
We can't wait another
minute to start treatments.
The way we've been living,
we are barely getting by.
There's no room for this,
this will wipe us out.
Sarah, I can get this money.
Trust me.
What?
I can get this money.
Start the treatments
and I will get the money.
Sarah, do you trust me?
I'm a fighter,
I don't quit, I don't give up.
I will get you this money.
Do you trust me?
I'll get the money.
70 grand.
That's just a base estimate
that doesn't even
cover complications.
I don't have that kind of money.
70 grand.
That's just a base estimate
that doesn't even
cover complications.
I don't have that kind of money.
Hello.
Hi. Junior.
I'm thinking about
getting back into the ring.
Can we meet?
I will see you tomorrow.
Same place as last time.
You crazy?
Sure.
Heavenly father, I come to you
in the name of Jesus.
Thank you for this opportunity
to be able to come before
you, Father God.
I ask of you to be
with me in this journey
that I'm about to take.
I believe that you
gave me the vision.
You gave me
the heart and the will
to want to do
what I'm about to do.
So I ask of you, to be with me
every little step I take.
Father, give me the strength,
so I may glorify you.
Sometimes in our, darkest hours,
that's when God shows us
his greatest strength.
Pastor.
Hello.
I wanted to make sure
that when I do this,
doing it for the right reason.
I want to do it because
the spirit that
lives inside of me
is with me in all that I do.
Well, don't think
that God will be calling you
to put your ego on display.
If he's going to raise you up,
he's going to raise you up
so that you can do something
to really shock the world.
And I think your heart
is in the right place,
especially if you're fighting to
help someone
that can't help themselves.
I think that's a noble thing.
You're just going to have to
put in the work, though.
I'm willing to put in the work.
I'm ready.
I will go through whatever
I need to go through.
Well the Bible says that
faith without works is dead.
If you're willing
to put in the work,
that's half the battle.
But do you believe
you can do it?
Yes Pastor,
I believe and know it.
Hmm.
Remember, it's not the size
of the dog in the fight,
the size of the fight
in the dog.
Whatever path you take,
I know the God that we serve,
he'll be on that path with you.
And remember this fight
is not only in the ring.
This fight is in your mind,
it's in your heart.
The Bible says
we can do all things
through Christ
who strengthens us,
and I believe he'll give you
strength for this fight.
Thank you. Pastor.
Yeah. Keep me posted on
what's going on, all right?
Yes, sir.
All right.
God bless you.
I'm thinking about
getting back into the ring.
I miss your sense of humor, man.
So you don't think
I can do this?
You are 60 years old, dude.
You had your time.
You were great.
You need to know
when to call it a day.
I have a friend.
A little girl
who came into my studio
became my little buddy.
Come to find out, she's sick.
Her parents don't have
money for treatment.
Just give me a chance.
If I put you in the ring,
it's all you.
You know the rules.
I can't pull you out.
Those new kids,
they won't show you any mercy.
I'm the best your ring ever saw.
You know I can do this.
I just need you
to give me a chance.
You sure this isn't
about getting older?
Wanting to see,
if you still got it?
Because I'm telling you now,
you don't.
Then bet against me.
Just give me a chance.
I know I can do it,
I know I can do it.
Okay.
I will call you.
Thank you.
Again.
Again.
Go faster.
Go.
I got a guy
for you to spar with.
If you're able to
handle this guy,
because this guy,
he's a real badass.
Show me something good...
then we'll see if you're ready.
- Yes sir.
- Okay?
Watch out for that left hook.
Good.
Doing great.
Okay, break.
Come on, back to the corner.
- Good work, man.
- Thank you, sir.
Yeah.
Is that you, sweetie?
Yeah. It's me.
How was your night?
Man. How you doing?
Good. How are you?
Sparring was tough for me today?
I'm like, sore every place.
You sure you want to do this?
What do you mean,
am I'm sure I want to do this?
I don't want to lose you.
You're not going to
lose me, this is something
I've been doing all my life.
Yeah, I'm a warrior.
What I got to do,
is get in shape.
But if you want to put
your magic hands on me,
then I would be
all right, right?
Well, I think you
should go take a shower.
- What?
- Go take a shower.
- Go take a shower.
- Yeah. Go on.
If I take a shower,
what's going to happen?
Then I'll massage you.
Oh. Oh. I'm looking
forward to that.
- Okay.
- Then that'll boost me up?
Oh, good. Yeah.
Nurse!
Okay.
What's going on?
Okay, sweetheart,
you have some pain right here?
Okay. Lay down.
Everything will be all right.
Okay. You're strong.
Samson!
Samson!
Samson!
What's going on?
I got to win.
I got to fight.
I got to win.
Sure. Go ahead.
I'll just stay home.
I need you to be behind me.
Do you think
that those young guys
going to give you easy time?
I don't care
about those young guys.
They got to worry about me.
If I'm in the best
shape of my life,
and I go out there
and I'm focused,
I will win.
You can get hurt.
You could die!
I'm not going to get hurt,
I'm not going to die.
I'm going to be ready.
I want to save that girl's life.
I want to help her.
You're only one man.
You can't solve the whole
world's problems.
I'm not trying to solve
the world's problem.
I'm trying to help her
and her mom.
I have a purpose,
I have a reason for doing
what I'm getting ready to do.
The situation
with the girl is horrible.
I feel so bad for her.
But we just don't have that kind
of money laying around.
It's not about the money,
it's about me being in shape,
me being spiritually right
and you being on my side.
If you're on my side,
I'm going to win.
Trust me, trust me.
My God, you're stubborn.
How you doing there, champ?
Having a lot of challenges,
I see.
I don't feel like uh,
I can do this, I'm, I feel like
I'm going to go out there,
I'm going to get killed.
She going to die.
I just I feel like
every day I go to that gym,
man, I pray,
I get on my knees,
I go do the physical work,
and then I come back
and go, oh, you too old.
You'll never be able to make it.
Hey, where's your faith?
Where's your belief?
The Bible says life and death
are in the power of the tongue.
And right now
you're using your own tongue
to defeat your own self.
Why would you do that?
When you have all that stuff
coming at you all the time,
you you feel like
nobody's with you?
I ask God,
pray to God all the time.
God, where are you?
- Listen.
- I'm doing everything that I could do.
From the physical side
from the mental time.
I don't understand who God is.
I feel like I don't hear God.
How do I know
that he's talking to me?
Don't you understand
that faith is not seeing it
and then believing it,
it's believing it
and then seeing it.
That's what this is about.
The world is watching right now.
You've already
put yourself out there now
with you and God and all
the rest of us believers.
Now we're on Front Street.
Now we got to deliver.
And I know my God
is a deliverer.
And I know he didn't
pick you on accident
because God
doesn't make accidents.
I feel like...
Because again,
you're basing it
on how you feel.
No. I'm basing it on
how I used to be,
as a fighter.
We can't fail now.
We can't
throw in the towel today.
We can't give up now.
We got too many people
dependent on us.
I'm dependent on you.
You got to get it together.
Life and death is
in the power of your tongue.
You have to speak well
over your own life.
You have to encourage
yourself at this point.
I know who God is.
I need to reach out.
And believe.
And know that he's with me.
I want to help this little girl.
You walk out of this office.
I don't know what steps
you're going to take.
But I do know
the God that I serve,
the same way he walks with me,
he'll walk with you.
But you got to walk, well?
And we ain't giving up today.
And even though the enemy
is whispering in your ear
and telling you you're too old
and you're over the hill,
don't listen to the enemy.
The devil's a liar.
Listen to the Lord.
Listen to his truth
and you'll be okay.
All right.
It's Kimo Ja se
when I say Kimo Ja se,
everybody going to go
right to your horse stance.
Ready, Kimo Ja Se.
Kimo Ja se.
Okay. Ready. Chin up.
And Bow Oss.
Bow Oss.
- Hello.
- I'll text you the address.
When?
Come tonight.
Okay. I'll be there.
Good evening,
my loyal Circuit fans.
Before there was MMA or UFC,
there was the Circuit.
No rules, no refs, no laws.
It's the closest thing
you'll ever see to a kumite.
And we've got it
live right here.
Let's get our bets in.
Great fight.
Let's see who is next.
Do you remember Dirk Longstreet,
undefeated champion.
Do we know what happened to him?
I think he's still out there
awaiting for his chance
to make his glorious return
to the Circuit any time soon.
Anyway, let's get to
tonight's fights.
Pick your favorites
and place your bets.
How do they make their money?
You see that?
See that?
Now you know.
Okay.
It will be a spectacle.
Great fight.
But they are not Dirk.
As a promoter,
I would make money off of it,
that's for sure.
But as a friend,
I'm just going to ask,
are you sure?
Listen,
I'm going to go,
I'm going to train harder.
I'm going to put on
the whole armor of God.
And you know,
I could have beat that kid,
and I'm ready.
And I'll be ready.
Hey boss.
You remember Samson. Right?
The Tae Bo guy.
Yeah. Word is,
he needs some cash?
Yeah. Wait, wait wait,
are you kidding me?
Your telling me the Tae Bo man
wants to get back
into the Circuit?
I remember those infomercials
from like, 40 years ago.
What is he like
a hundred years old?
No, sir.
He's like 60,
but he can still fight.
Well Thanks.
You know, it wouldn't be
bad checking him out.
We do need a hero, don't we?
And he still has
a pretty strong following.
I think we might have
the guy to replace Dirk.
What do you think?
Okay, I'll call your back.
- Susan!
- You called?
Yeah. I need you
to do me a favor.
Grab a couple of guys,
I need you to
test someone for me.
- Okay?
- You remember the Tae Bo man?
The aerobics karate guy?
Okay. Yeah.
Yeah. I want you to
check him out
and see if he's still
got it, okay?
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Cool.
I'm sorry. I know
I'm always on the phone.
I understand.
Yeah. Sorry.
It's going to be a nice night.
- Good enjoy it.
- What do you want to do tonight?
I have an idea.
You're right.
Hello.
You know, I don't like
last minute changes.
Sorry, but she said
that she's your fan.
You sure
this is the right place?
Oh, I see it.
Good. All right, bye.
Your, Susan.
Hello. Come in.
This way.
- All right.
- Here we are.
Okay, so you called my office,
and they say that you wanted
- to do a body style change, so.
- Yes.
- Tell me what you.
- What do you think?
What do you think, I should do?
Well, I think your body looks
great, but I can help you.
Shoulders, I can tighten your
legs up, your stomach up.
But first thing I like to be able to do is measure you.
- Okay?
See where your body stays.
- Here we go.
- Wow.
- All right.
- So many tools.
So why don't you step over here?
- Okay.
I'm going to do your neck first.
- Mmm..
Good.
Oh, okay. Hold on.
You got it, you getting too close.
- Oh. I'm sorry.
I can't. Yeah. I can't
measure you.
- You don't like that?
- I can't measure you.
- Hmm.
- Okay.
There that.
Thank you.
- What else do you need?
- Turn back.
- Okay.
- There you go.
Ooh.
You really don't
want to workout?
I'm going to leave.
You can call my office and tell
them to give you money back
- because this is not working.
- You don't like, what you see?
I came here to do a job
- that's to get you in good shape.
- Yeah and get paid for an hour.
Yeah. So call my office
and they'll give you
your money back.
Hey.
You hitting on my wife?
No, I came here to do a job,
and your wife
wouldn't let me do my job.
So if you got a problem with it?
Well, you know, because I know
we hired you for a lesson.
- Yeah.
- And I don't see a lesson going on,
So either you give us a lesson
or you give me my money back.
Call my office
and get your money back.
Talk to your wife.
You're not going anywhere.
Oh my God.
Three for one.
Welcome back,
valued viewers to the Circuit
on a very special night.
It may not be a main ring event,
but tonight features the return
of one of the Circuits
all time legends.
Samson.
The questions are everywhere.
Why is he back?
And even speculation
about the return of
fellow legend Dirk Longstreet?
It's Samson versus College Boy.
In what is perhaps
the most anticipated
Circuit underground
battle in years.
The fight begins. Now.
Samson pulls out the victory,
against a fighter
less than half his age.
Samson has pulled out
his first Circuit K.O.
in over two decades.
With that performance,
I'm sure it won't be long
until we see Samson
back in the main event.
Yeah.
Guess what, Samson fight, great.
I think we should just
double down on this.
We should have one more fight.
With a Sumo,
with a Sumo character.
Then I think after
that one more fight,
he'll be good for the big time.
Good, good.
Just make it happen, all right?
We have some sick people
on the card today.
Now it's your turn.
- Osu.
- Samson is back for more electrifying
Circuit underground action
in what's sure to be
an entertaining matchup.
Samson versus Sumo Jack.
Samson's second fight.
Get your money in.
This should be an epic battle.
The fight begins. Now.
Get up old man.
And Jack, in a show of respect,
has conceded defeat
to the legend Samson.
This will no doubt qualify him
to return to
the Circuit's main event.
Samson is officially back
and fighting with a purpose.
You can't keep on doing this.
I know I'm bruised, I'm hungry.
I don't want to
talk about this right now.
Okay?
There's lots of food
on the table.
We already ate.
- Hi.
- How you doing?
Not good.
Everybody down
at the studio, miss you.
I miss that energy, too.
I feel so weak here.
Well, you going to get better.
Just remember,
just got to keep
your fighting power.
Okay.
Want to do a little prayer?
Please God, help me get better.
Help me get better
so I can have my power again.
Heavenly Father,
we ask of you to strengthen her.
Strengthen her Mom.
Give her the strength and power.
Send your angels, send all
the power that she needs
so she can come out
through this healthy, strong
and vibrant Father,
so we thank you
in Jesus name, Amen.
Amen.
So get ready.
You're gonna be good.
Thanks.
- Be strong.
- All right.
Go ahead you stay tough.
Welcome back to the Circuit,
once again, valued viewers.
Live, once again
from the world's playground,
Las Vegas.
We start tonight's card
with an interesting matchup.
Obviously, most participants
fight under a pseudonym,
for obvious reasons.
Karate Ken versus Unknown.
These combatants are both
looking to make their name
on the main stage.
10 seconds.
All bets are in and here we go.
Yaaah!
And it's Karate Ken
with the K.O.!
A great first match
for this card.
And an impressive win for Ken.
This night is about to
get more interesting.
Our next match features
the return of a warrior
who unarguably belongs
on the Mount Rushmore
of Circuit alumni.
I'm speaking, of course,
about the legendary fan favorite
and seemingly ageless Samson.
Can Karate Ken
rise to the challenge
and go back to back with
his second fight of the night
against his admitted
childhood hero, Samson.
We'll see valued viewers.
Both men, showing respect.
The fight starts, now.
And Samson with the victory.
A very clean
and honorable contest.
Samson has certainly
shown his fortitude
in his first return to
the main Circuit arena.
70 grand.
That's just a base estimate
that doesn't even
cover complications.
I don't have that kind of money.
Do you trust me?
I can get this money
start the treatments,
and I will get the money.
I'll get this money.
I have a plan.
Samson, I can't.
I'm a fighter,
I don't quit, I don't give up.
Are you sure
you really want to do this?
Yeah.
There must be another way.
There is no other way.
Oh. Remember what
happened to your brother.
And he was younger.
He got shot in the back.
And remember...
God is on my side.
If you with me,
then I don't have to worry.
Okay, big man.
Hey, how you doing?
Yeah, I'm you know.
You doing good?
I'm okay yeah.
Well let me give you
this $1500 hundred.
This is too much to accept.
No, I'll get you
the rest of it soon.
Why are you doing this?
Because I know what it's like
to be kicked around by life.
We all been there,
so don't worry.
Rest.
Take care.
Good evening,
loyal Circuit viewers.
We are again live from Las Vegas
with a very special lineup.
It's the cream of the crop.
Best of the best.
The final countdown.
It's the Circuit
main event finale.
We're starting with
an undercard,
but one that's sure to please.
Sumo Sam versus TKO.
Get those bets in.
5 seconds.
Okay, the fight is on.
Sumo Sam with the KO over TKO.
A final punch seals the deal.
That performance certainly
gets the other fighters
watching in the wings,
something to think about.
It's going to take
that next gear to advance.
And with that fight concluded,
it's time again for Samson.
Get those bets in.
Hey, boss.
Yeah. You know, people
loved that sumo fight so much,
I thought I'd level it up.
So Samson right now
is fighting Sumo Sam,
the numbers are looking great.
They're still up.
Like I told you,
people will still love him.
This is sure to be
a memorable battle,
valued viewers.
Here we go.
It's Sumo Sam versus Samson.
The fight starts. Now.
Stay down.
And with the flying roundhouse.
Samson finishes Sumo Sam
in spectacular fashion.
It seems Samson
hasn't lost a step.
He's back
and fighting with a purpose.
And with Samson's
recent renaissance,
we can't help but wonder.
Can Dirk Longstreet
be far behind?
Good news, boss.
Did you enjoy the fight?
Yeah. And the Tae Bo man
didn't disappoint.
Make sure I get him again too.
You're very welcome.
Things are looking up.
Maybe we don't need Dirk.
- Cheers to that.
- Cheers.
All doctors are needed
in the emergency room.
And again, live from Las Vegas.
It's the Circuit.
We start with a bang.
It's Yellow Gloves
versus Short Hair.
Here we go.
The fight starts. Now.
Yaah!
We end with a finishing kick.
The fight is over.
Yellow Gloves is the winner.
In a decisive battle,
he won't have a lot of
time to savor the victory.
However, as next up,
he'll be facing Samson
in the main ring.
Coming up next,
it's Samson
versus Yellow Gloves.
The fight starts in 10 seconds.
It's Samson with the takedown
and the victory.
Yellow Gloves is out.
Samson with yet another win,
he'll advance
to the final round.
What a great night
of Circuit action.
Look look
send in Russ all right.
Don't let a dancer
beat all of our boys.
My thoughts exactly, boss.
We got to even the odds.
Russ is ready to go.
It's Samson versus Russ
in the final battle
of the evening.
So far, Russ
has looked unstoppable.
He's the clear odds on favorite.
The fight starts. Now.
You can't throw in
the towel now.
God does not promise us
that the journey will be easy.
But he does promise us
he will walk with us
every step of the way.
So you got to trust in the Lord.
Not with some of your heart,
but with all of your heart.
And victory,
it's only one step away.
Keep going, keep pushing.
Keep believing.
Yes. You have what it takes
because you have
God inside of you.
Oh, come on.
What's the matter
with you, Russ?
What did I spoil you
with all this good living here?
And it's Samson
with a flying kick.
And the victory!
It's Samson over Russ in an impressive win.
- Oh, man.
We can only hope
Samson is just the first
former champion
to return to the Circuit.
And based on
tonight's performance,
time will tell.
Pastor you know,
I want to make sure
that when I do this,
doing it for the right reason.
- You'll be good.
- Oh yeah.
You are 60 years old, dude.
You had your time?
You can get hurt.
I'm not going to get hurt.
I'm not going to die.
I want to save that girl's life.
I want to help her.
Remember, many are the
afflictions of the righteous.
But God delivers us
out of them all.
Remember, you can do
all things through Christ.
It's over.
Thank you, Lord.
Thank you.
No more.
Mr. Tae Bo.
How you doing?
I am fantastic.
I absolutely loved your work.
I want my money.
Of course.
Of course.
Now, the boss man
called and asked,
"If you'd like to
join the team?"
Listen, the reason
why I got into this
is because I had a purpose.
- Of course.
- I came here and I fought for a life.
I'm done.
I'm finished. No more.
- Okay.
- I'm out.
I'll let the boss man know.
Well, well, well,
if it's not the champ.
Yep.
You know, I'm a pastor,
so I give God.
I give God and I'm a pastor.
- Thank you, thank you.
Wow, what an amazing fight.
How did you pull that off?
Well, pulled it off
by using my faith
and doing the things
I needed to do physically
to be prepared for the fight.
God is good. 24/7
he did what he said
he was going to do.
Well, to God be the glory.
Yes, to God be the glory.
You pulled it off.
You know when you
believe and receive
God does what he said
he's going to do.
Wow. Well,
the Bible does say
we walk through the valley
of shadow of death,
but fear no evil
because he'll be with us.
And apparently he was with you
because you had us all scared.
I didn't I didn't think
you was going to get up.
But you got up.
No, I got up in 24/7.
Like you said, when you
going through that valley,
it takes a lot of faith.
Our faith
went to the next level by
watching you operate in faith.
- So thank you for that, that was.
- Thank you.
Thank you for the prayer.
Thank you for the blessing.
It was awesome.
To God, be to glory.
But listen, I think
we're going to put you
on the Deacon board.
I have a spot for you on the Deacon board.
- I'll accept that.
Well, after watching that fight,
I think I got
my sermon for Sunday.
How to knock the devil out.
Okay, you take care.
All right.
I know one thing.
God, don't make
bad things happen.
But life does.
And every once in a while,
we have to go
through those tests,
to see how tough we are,
and see if we can
go through the fire.
And at the end,
we see how good we are.
Sometimes I wonder
why bad things
happen to good people.
I do know that you have
been our guardian angel.
Thank you.
- Hey, Samson.
- How you doing?
Good. When do you think
I can come back to classes?
You, what do you think?
- Right now. Let's go.
- Let's do it.
I can't wait
I like that.
Okay, guys.
Ready 4 point stance.
Let's do that.
Step out. Ready?
Left leg starts. Go!
1. Count it.
- 2. 3.

- Go! That's it.
- 6,7.
- Come on.
- And. Hold!
- 8.
Okay, guys, Alyssia's
going to take over,
she came back.
She's ready to go.
Go ahead, take over Alyssia.
Come on guys.
Let's walk through the power.
Let's walk through the fire.
We got the power.
Right.
1,2,3,4.
5,6,7,8.
1,2,3,4.
5,6,7,8.
Dirk, I want him found.
Find him.
You understand?
I don't care how you do it.
Find him.
Dirk. Everybody
wants to find Dirk?
Hey, boss.
Bad news is
Samson is completely out.
No amount of money is
going to make him fight again.
I'm sure Dirk's going to
show up eventually.
Wherever he might be.
Wherever he is hiding
we'll find him.
So just have a little faith.
We'll find him.
Yeah
