Lion Fist

Joe, a mixed martial arts fighter, serves four years in prison after taking the blame for his wife in a drug case. Once released, he discovers that his former partner has built a new life with a drug baron and that they have a son together, a boy born while Joe was locked up. The child has a life-threatening tumor and needs an expensive operation, but Joe has no way to pay for it. His solution is to train under a master named Wu so he can enter a brutal all-styles tournament whose winner receives a prize of one hundred thousand dollars.
