Lee Chen Kun, Ma Tien Long, Johnny Taylor star in the martial-arts maelstrom The Fierce Boxer. The usual plotline in this sort of fare involves the hero avenging his father's death. This time, however, it's the father who's the central character. Kun plays that character, an ageing but far from infirm martial-arts master. His skills are taxed to the utmost when he is called upon to rescue his son from evil opponents.
