I started training Eric Roberts how to box for a movie called Runaway Train. And Eric, you know... Well-deserved. It was a movie star. So movie stars have their own way of acting on the set, and sometimes it doesn't agree with the director. I want to rest now and go to Australia. And everything stopped. So Eric respected me. So when they wanted him, they would tell me, go get Eric. Go get Eric.
