he was on the lowest rung of society.
(0:08:11.77)
EXTRA : The Roman Fighter (0:08:19.01)
Julianus Valens : That brand is the first letter
of my name, Julianus Valens.
(0:08:21.91)
Cestvs : But why? I won the fight! (0:08:26.40)
Julianus Valens : It means all of you belong to me, (0:08:32.57)
Julianus Valens : and it's also the first letter of "victory." (0:08:37.30)

wins 100 fights his freedom.
(0:08:51.69)
Cestvs : O-One hundred fights? (0:08:57.55)
Cestvs : But we'll be killed if we lose a single one. (0:09:00.14)
Zafar : Dodge them all! (0:09:10.79)
Zafar : Don't step back! (0:09:12.03)
Zafar : As long as you dodge all
blows from within your reach,
(0:09:13.30)
Zafar : your fists will reach him. (0:09:15.36)
Zafar : Strike without being struck! (0:09:17.74)
Zafar : Attacking and defending are
always one and the same!
(0:09:19.41)
Zafar : He's a frail boy who won't
withstand a single powerful blow.
(0:09:23.70)
Zafar : I can't expect him to land
a single knockout punch.
(0:09:26.85)
Zafar : He'll have to fight by evading his
opponent and landing a flurry of blows.
(0:09:30.43)
Zafar : But his keen eyes and swift
movements are beyond reproach.
(0:09:33.87)
Zafar : He's an exceptional talent who will
revolutionize the bloody sport of boxing.
(0:09:38.51)
Zafar : The challenge will be changing his mentality. (0:09:42.93)
Zafar : You can't beat strong opponents
by striking with just your hands.
(0:09:51.25)
Zafar : A powerful blow starts between the
tips of your toes and your knees.
(0:09:54.54)
Zafar : Watch this. (0:10:00.49)
Zafar : Spring from below the knees... (0:10:01.45)
Zafar : Turn your hips... (0:10:03.70)
Zafar : Rotate your shoulders... (0:10:05.06)
Zafar : And strike with your fist. (0:10:06.56)

Cestvs : A f-fight? (0:10:26.73)
Zafar : A fight between training schools hosted by
the emperor himself at an arena in Rome.
(0:10:28.82)
Zafar : You'll be forced to fight among
adults as a slave fighter.
(0:10:34.18)
Zafar : It's a fight on the big stage. (0:10:39.36)
Cestvs : It's huge. (0:10:45.53)

have your first real fight.
(0:10:49.61)

the center of the Roman Empire
(0:11:10.56)

Ruska : Hey, kid. (0:11:24.66)
Ruska : Is this your first time in Rome? (0:11:26.19)
Cestvs : Yeah. I'm actually here for the fight,
but I got separated from my group.
(0:11:28.50)
Ruska : The fight? (0:11:34.58)
Ruska : You're a slave fighter? But you're so small. (0:11:36.90)
Cestvs : T-Today's my first fight. (0:11:40.88)
Ruska : Take that turn and head downstairs. (0:11:44.50)
Ruska : You're supposed to meet there. (0:11:47.05)
Cestvs : Thanks a lot. (0:11:50.03)
Cestvs : I'm Cestvs. Thanks again! (0:11:55.31)

up to the irresponsible spectators.
(0:14:59.05)
EXTRA : N-No, wait! I'm not broken! (0:15:03.75)
EXTRA : I just let my guard down! (0:15:07.65)
EXTRA : In these situations, (0:15:09.38)

Agrippina : Kill them! (0:15:33.25)

to give orders to the Roman Emperor.
(0:15:36.78)
Nero : M-Mother! (0:15:41.63)
Demetrius : With all due respect,
Your Majesty Empress Dowager...
(0:15:43.30)

to demonstrate his stature to the people
(0:15:46.78)
Demetrius : by calmly judging the situation. (0:15:50.35)
Agrippina : Then for Nero's sake, I retract my statement. (0:15:57.26)

Demetrius : Then let us give the Roman
people what they want.

Are you trying to die?

Zafar : That was only one victory. (0:16:10.30)
Zafar : You can't afford to
sympathize with the loser!
(0:16:12.04)
Cestvs : B-But if my opponent dies every time I win... (0:16:14.45)
Cestvs : I'm practically a murderer! (0:16:18.23)
Zafar : This is the reality of boxing! (0:16:22.72)
Zafar : All you can do is keep on running like mad! (0:16:24.75)
Zafar : Your frustration, your sadness,
your pain, your rage...
(0:16:27.83)

Nero : You really do look tiny up close. (0:16:47.87)
Nero : You're still only 15? (0:16:51.10)

Zafar : Zafar of Numidia. (0:17:05.85)
Zafar : I'm teaching this boy to box. (0:17:07.87)
Agrippina : Zafar... (0:17:10.75)
Agrippina : I believe there used to be a
slave fighter by that name.
(0:17:12.33)
Agrippina : Demetrius, he's the man who fought you. (0:17:17.45)

in the presence of Emperor Claudius.
(0:17:21.47)
Demetrius : It was the ultimate fight. (0:17:29.33)
Zafar : Indeed. (0:17:33.01)

EXTRA : The Fighting Child of Rome, Ruska Demetrius! (0:18:16.95)
Cestvs : Demetrius? Wait, is he... (0:18:23.36)
Demetrius : Your Majesty, boxing is a crude combat sport. (0:18:26.08)
Demetrius : You're about to see living proof of that. (0:18:31.32)

Cestvs : S-Such intensity. (0:18:43.48)
Zafar : You can feel his spirit and
strength even from this distance.
(0:18:46.62)
Zafar : He's nothing like the lanky man you defeated. (0:18:50.89)
Zafar : What's shocking to me is that boy. (0:18:54.72)
Zafar : He's up against a veteran boxer,
but he shows no fear or excitement.
(0:18:57.39)
Zafar : He's experienced despite his young age. (0:19:01.34)
EXTRA : Begin! (0:19:04.06)

combat sport from boxing?

your impressive record.
(0:19:15.13)
Ruska : Let us exchange blows. (0:19:19.44)
Cestvs : He knocked him down with a slap? (0:19:29.07)
Zafar : No, that last blow was a palm heel strike. (0:19:30.68)
Zafar : He's accurately striking at his chin. (0:19:34.76)
Zafar : It's far more powerful
than half-assed punches.
(0:19:37.63)
Ruska : Knockouts are so boring. (0:19:41.10)
Ruska : Time to finish him off. (0:19:44.01)

EXTRA : Favored child of Mars! (0:20:11.67)
Nero : Demetrius, what is that combat sport? (0:20:13.60)
Demetrius : It's a synthesis of combat sports. (0:20:17.33)
Demetrius : It's called pankration. (0:20:19.13)
Demetrius : It originated in my homeland of Greece. (0:20:22.21)
Demetrius : Based on wrestling and fused with Eastern
martial arts by our own soldiers,
