If Luís becomes a champion in the US tournament, he will finally get the chance to compete for the world title. The event's talent scout will take one other boxer from the Nockout gym. Popó wishes to be part of the team but not Luís or coach Dantas have his back. By a struck of luck, Popó manages to get a spot and the Freitas Brothers box for the first time as a brand of Brazilian boxing.

Luís just has one more fight to win to be the champion of the tournament and he will sign a contract to fight with the world champion. Against all odds, Popó is as successful as his brother and he gets to the finals. Back in Brazil, the Freitas family has two new belts and a painful secret: Luís didn't win his last fight and he only became a champion because his opponent was disqualified.

With the world title out of the question, Luís strengthens the Freitas Brothers brand in a regional scale, but that doesn't translate into money. Luck is on the brothers' side again after a fight at the nightclub from businessman Júlio Tavares. He decides to support the brothers financially. A fight day is organized in San Pablo for publicity reasons, but it ends up being a disaster.
