Leon (Jean-Claude Van Damme), hearing of his brothers plight, escapes from the French Foreign Legion to see him. Leon travels to America, and to fund his journey through that country, he engages in bare-knuckle prize fighting for money. At the same time he is pursued by military police from the French Foreign Legion. After winning a series of bare-knuckle fights, Leon faces off against the toughest fighter he has ever faced, the giant champion Atilla.
