"Rocky" goes 'hood in Akon's new video for "Hurt Somebody," the French Montana-assisted single from the Konvict Music boss' forthcoming Stadium album.

The gritty clip opens with Akon and French -- a former Konvict signee who left the label and subsequently linked up with Bad Boy -- making their way to the gym. There, the Senegalese American rhymer and producer does some hardcore training, and before long, we see why: He's gearing up for an ultimate-fighting bout with a big, bad dude with Mr. T hair and a Rick Ross beard.

French gets off easy, rapping from the safety of the sidelines, but Akon proves he doesn't need any help. After getting pounded in the early rounds, he makes like Sly Stallone -- or maybe "The Karate Kid," given his final move -- and pulls off a killer comeback.

Check out the hard-hitting clip below.
