Synopsis
Back home, Joe seeks out Yoko and asks to be Carlos's sparring partner. At Yoko's instruction, the two reluctantly put on heavy 16-oz gloves. Just a practice match — but for both Joe and Carlos, the moment they've been waiting for. Joe's cross counter explodes. "Rikishi's ghost" had already been blown clean away.
