“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds."

Robo-Kickboxer - Power of Justice (1992)
aka Rings Untouchable, aka Kickboxer Robocop
Of course, with a title like this, it's a prison escape film! No, really. The film starts with a guy in a cheap space suit (or maybe Daft Punk inspired motorcycle gear) in a boxing ring. He's an hallucination. The other fighter turns out to have been dosed with chemicals that were supposed to make him a better fighter but definitely cause hallucinations. This fighter retires from the ring, needs money, gets involved in a drug deal that goes wrong, goes to prison, meets some guys, they all escape and go their separate ways... and then the guy goes back to the ring, dosed again with drugs. It's on YouTube (as "Rings Untouchable"), so you can see for yourself. It's not good and not really enjoyable.
