George initially asks why, following up with “Where I’m from, ain’t nothin’ for free” to which Nikolai responds by asking him “have you ever helped anybody?” The help he recieves after that from the prisoners and from Nikolai to expand his training, he becomes less aggressive (slightly), and changes his character, especially toward the very end of the film. Locked up for life, he was a formerly trained in military grappling. Nikolai is an old man confined to a wheelchair. The prisoners all help him out when he is enduring torturous punishment but in particular he develops a trust for Nikolai. While George has the same bad attitude as the first movie, he soon gains the respect of those around him after his first fight with Boyka. After being robbed of his freedom and dignity, there’s only so much he can take when he decides to fight in the ring. Whenever he is told to follow prison rules or protocol George acts as if the guards have no right over him, and fights each incident to the bitter end. Happening for the second time, you can see the obvious frustration and anger, and the refusal to accept the fact that he is in prison. In the first movie George was thrown into prison for a false accusation, but he never endured what he had to in the Russian prison. Of course while George is furious over he whole situation, he agrees and fights Boyka.
With George now locked up in his prison, Gaga offers George a way out, fight Boyka (and win, as he mentions later in the film) and he will walk free, making a tonne of much needed money. So Gaga has some men plant drugs in George Chamber’s hotel room, and frames him for possession. As a champion of Boxing, Goerge has the skill, and Gaga wants to make a tonne of money by setting up a fight and betting against Boyka. Gaga sees in George Chambers a guy who can possibly defeat Boyka.
So he takes advantage of George’s stay in Russia, and comes up with a plan. The owner of the prison and the televised prison fights, a mobster named Gaga, is tired of seeing Boyka constantly destroying his opponents with little to no effort.
Boyka is undefeated and seemingly unstoppable champion of the Russian prison fighting circuit.
At the same time there’s a prisoner named Boyka (Scott Adkins).
