Default Tomb Raider movie starts with Lara in a boxing ring if Walton Goggins' script is righ

I have no idea if this has been posted...but I looked around and didn't see anything. So I'll make this thread:

Until now, all we knew about the Tomb Raider movie is that it's set to star Alicia Vikander as Lara and Walton Goggins as the bad guy. Now, thanks to Goggins we know a tiny little bit more.

Goggins posted this image to his Instagram last week:

Thing is, if you play around with brightness and contrast, and a few other filters, you can just about make out the first page that's showing through.

This is what I've picked out so far:

xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxx

xxxx in a boxing ring xxxx
xxxxxxx is sweat stained xxxxx. Lara xxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

xxx trainer scrolls through his xxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxx xxxx xxx xxx tries to grapple xxxx
xxx rapid, unfocused xxxx that she xxxx

TRAINER
Stop flailing

XXX (LARA?)
Stop looking at your phone

The trainer puts his phone away sheepishly. Lara’s struggling in the ring

LARA
xxxxxxx how to text?

xxxxxx for a half xxxxx
xxxxxx kicks to the head xxxxx like a
xxxx to the mat.

LARA
xxxx on you. I’m done here

She forces herself up xxx
xxxx blows which hit xxxx
xxxxxx who strike xxxxx

The film seems to start with a fight then, with the mention of 'grapple' and, potentially, head kicks suggesting something MMA shaped rather then boxing.

From the words I can pick out it sounds like Lara is sparring but initially getting whupped while her trainer looks at his phone. She berates him, takes a beating and then falls to the mat before getting up and destroying her opponents.

I'm extrapolating a bit here but it fits what words are visible, and the tempo of an average opening scene - Lara makes a strong, heroic appearance, faces defeat and then fights back. Loud music plays, titles roll... It's a good clear way of setting up the character.

If you can pick out any other words let me know and I'll update the 'script'.

Guurl u late, this is TRF do you honestly think we didn't examine every possible pixel of that script? People were discussing it in the general movie thread.
