Gonna Fight Quote by Chris Tucker

“Jackie come to me and says, 'We gonna do a fight scene.' I said 'What?' He says 'We got to do a fight scene in the next scene. I have to teach you.' I say 'How you gonna teach me in three seconds?' ...What we did, we did the fight scene with our arms connected.” quote by Chris Tucker
