"Battlin' Jack Murdock" a  popular boxer in Hell's Kitchen, he isn't the best fighter but not the worst, he fought against some of the most  famous boxers in New York. But behind the scenes was the Fixer, a crook who is in charge of Jack's fights, he also threatened Jack, telling him that if he won't follow his orders he will kill him and Matt . The fixer rigged alot of Jack's fights in the past making sure that he will get to the championship and he did. It was a regular day at the Fog Well's Gym, Jack spent his time on punching bag, he beat that thing for hours upon hours but for Jack it felt like seconds,he was sweaty and tired and ready to go home. "Hey Jack" said the Fixer, he was at a dark corner near Jack. Jack almost jumped from how shocked he was, Jack always meets the Fixer at his place and not the opposite. "what do you want?" Jack asked, knowing that the answer won't be pretty, "always straight to the point, i like it, you have a fight next Thursday 7 pm, on the fourth round you're out with a knockout , don't disappoint me Jack" the Fixer left the Gym. This was very weird for Jack, most of the time if he wanted to deliver a message he would sent someone, maybe this is very important for him, maybe this boxing match is going to make the Fixer a lot of money, he sure do love making money. Jack decided to leave the Gym, but he waited at the exit door for good 2 minutes so he wont bump into the Fixer, Jack doesn't trust him, he didn't trust him the first time they met , he never even told Jack(or anyone else) his real name plus he theartened him and Matty, of course he won't trust him.  Jack opened the door and the first thing he saw is Matt sleeping on the coach and some notebooks on the floor, this reminded Jack of himself, he never did homework, he always got into trouble and most of the time he would end up on his parents coach, drunk, sad , mad and alone. " Come on Matty wake up, this is my territory" said Jack, "huh what?" Matt asked."Did you do your homework?" "Y-yes " said Matt, "good" Jack checked his watch , it was 11pm, "get up Matty and go to your bed, it's almost midnight" "okay dad, good night" said Matt, he collected the notebooks from the floor and went to his room, Jack sat on the old coach and watched some TV. Jack still thought about the boxing match that is going to happen less then a week , the Fixer didn't even tell him who is  fighting against him, what an asshole, but Jack has to do what he has to do, he will get alot of money from the Fixer and thats enough for him, but he still feels wrong about doing it, sadly he doesn't have a choice
