"When The Streets
Are A Jungle...
There Can Only
Be One King."
"Lyon Gaultier (Jean-Claude Van Damme)
is a member of the French Foreign
Legion stationed at a remote North
African desert outpost. When word
arrives that his brother in L.A. has been
critically injured, Lyon deserts and works
his way across the Atlantic in the boiler
room of a tramp steamer.
Landing in New York, Lyon finds himself without
money to get to L.A. - until he meets a savvy ex-
streetfighter named Joshua (Harrison Page), who in
turn introduces him to Cynthia (Deborah Rennard),
the sexy queen of New York's illegal, bare knuckles
underground fight circuit. Nicknamed 'Lionheart'
by Cynthia, Lyon experiences the bloody no-holds-
barred fighting arena with grueling bouts in exotic
locales : a deserted warehouse, a raquetball court,
a half - empty pool, and a fabulous mansion
The final showdown pits Lionheart against the
ultimate destruction machine. Attila (Abdel Qissi),
the Asian bare knuckle champion. With all odds
against him, Lyon must struggle not only for his
payoff, but for his life."
