• Billy Barrow : Think Chetley here is interested in my mother.

  Coach Tennent : Chetley, you're... you interested in Barrow's mother?

  Cal Chetley : No, sir. Least not with all her clothes on.

• Sharon Chetley : There are things about Mike you don't know, Cal doesn't know. You know, it turns out he wasn't as unbreakable as everybody made him out to be. Nobody is.

  Coach Tennent : You know, if I say no to Cal, you're just asking for a different kind of trouble. I'll tell you what I'll do. How about I watch him just to make sure he's out there for the right reasons?

  Sharon Chetley : And if another Mike shows up at tomorrow's practice, willing to sacrifice everything in his life for this, you're-you're gonna tell him to ease off?

  Coach Tennent : Yes, I will.

  Sharon Chetley : At the cost of victories?

  Coach Tennent : Trust me.

  Sharon Chetley : I-I don't really even know you, but you... you better be tellin' the truth. That kid is all I got.

• [Scenes of Mike privately advising Cal are interspersed with later scenes of Cal at weigh-ins] 

  Mike Chetley : [privately]  Psychology.

  Weigh-in Official : [at weigh-ins]  129 and a half. Step down, please.

  Mike Chetley : First time you see your opponents at weigh-in...

  Weigh-in Official : Next weight class, 135. Claymore, step up, please.

  Mike Chetley : ...look right through him. He doesn't exist. It's a confidence game. Somehow, YOU are gonna instill fear.

  Weigh-in Official : 134 and a half. Step down, please. Riverdale.

  Coach Tennent : Chetley.

  Mike Chetley : You're thinkin' one thing, that your girlfriend is in the front seat of his car, and if you lose she's goin' home with him. And you think that over and over again. And let it burn - because it'll show in your eyes.

  Coach Tennent : Chetley!

  Weigh-in Official : Step up, please.

  Mike Chetley : Do it right, sometimes they pee themselves.

  [Cal laughs] 

  Mike Chetley : Yeah. There's one more thing. Ya gotta weigh in naked.

  Cal Chetley : [chuckles]  Naked?

  Mike Chetley : It's... trust me, it's uncomfortable, but it makes them MORE uncomfortable, because it shows you're proud and it shows you got nothin' to fear.

  Weigh-in Official : 135 even. Step down, please. 140.

  Mike Chetley : After that, you find a spot in that gym. It's your spot, your space. You go there, bring music with you, music you love, music that gets into your soul. You do all those things, and THAT'S gonna give you the edge.
