    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Bren Foster, who played the main villain Xavier Grau and served as the film's fight choreographer, is a World Champion in Taekwondo and Karate. He has won over 180 first-place medals and competed in more than 200 matches in multiple martial arts disciplines, and holds black belts in 5 disciplines: 7th degree in Taekwondo, 2nd degree in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and 1st degree in Hapkido, Haidong Gumdo and Hwarangdo.
    • Goofs
      After the unsanctioned fight between Xavier and Mallon, there's no way any MMA promotion, let alone one as large as one fighting championships, would sanction Xavier to fight again. In reality, Xavier would have been arrested because the fight had been broadcast live over the Internet which would have been proof of the death and probably would have resulted in him being prosecuted for manslaughter at least, or murder.
