1920년 뉴욕의 뒷골목. 고아로 자란 크리스(Christopher Dubois: 쟝-끌로드 반담 분)는 소매치기 집단의 우두머리가 되고, 다른 갱단의 물건을 훔치다 발각되어 어느 배에 몰래 숨어든다. 그러나 밀항의 실패로 노예와 같은 생활을 하던 중, 영국인 에드가 도브스(Lord Edgar Dobbs: 로저 무어 분)가 지휘하는 해적선의 습격으로 다시 사로잡히는 신세가 된다. 에드가 도브스는 타이섬의 복싱 프로모터, 카오(Khao: 아키 알렝 분)가 이끄는 집단에 크리스를 팔아넘긴다. 6개월 후, 킥복싱 챔피언이 된 크리스는 티벳의 세계 무술인 시합인 GHAN GHENG에 출전할 것을 선고받자, 자신이 이길 경우 그들을 살려달라는 목숨을 위해 크리스는 생사를 건 혈투를 벌인다.
