:19:00
So screw Luther,
l'll get somebody else the damn belt.
:19:02
l wouldn't count on that.
:19:04
Champ material is just like
any other special thing: rare.
:19:11
What are you doing for dinner tonight?
My HBO thing's coming on.
:19:15
l'd appreciate it
if you watched it with me.
:19:19
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, l'll watch it with you.
:19:22
lt's a cliché, but l'm living proof
dreams do come true.
:19:26
Just one step away from
champion of the world.
:19:29
Jackie Kallen.
Even if you don't follow boxing,
:19:32
chances are you still
recognize the name.
:19:34
Kallen didn't just claw her way
inside the boxing arena,
:19:37
she captured center ring.
:19:39
Kallen's a snake-in-the-grass
charmer. l gave her a start
:19:42
and took a lot of heat for it.
:19:43
She thought she was something
special. l didn't. Still don't.
:19:47
- Back off, fool.
- No comment.
:19:49
That's all, so get the camera
out of my face.
:19:52
Why do you think
you've done well in,
:19:54
for lack of a better term,
a boys' club?
:19:57
Where women are notoriously
non grata.
:20:01
Well, l didn't ingratiate myself, Doug.
l went toe-to-toe with the guys.
:20:05
l made them deal with me.
:20:07
They never saw ferocious
in high heels before.
:20:10
ln dealing with you, some of the guys
seem to have got pretty prickly.
:20:14
Oh, prickly.
:20:19
lnteresting choice of words, Doug.
:20:21
Look, l'm really good at what l do.
l'm not gonna disappear
:20:25
just because l make some people
uncomfortable. lt's not gonna happen.
:20:29
Just ask her, and she'll quickly
remind you that Luther Shaw,
:20:33
her middleweight wannabe of
the world, wouldn't be where he is
:20:36
if she weren't where she is,
which is all over the place,
:20:40
talking about herself.
:20:42
Her impact on boxing is irrefutable,
but it's still a man's world.
:20:46
A heartless, egocentric,
self-centered boys' club.
:20:50
And Jackie Kallen
is its newest member.
:20:55
Funny thing is, she'll probably think
that was a compliment.
:20:59
l'm Doug Doherty for HBO Sports.
Thanks for watching.
