When gangsters blow up his parents’ antique store, and his sister (Erica Van Wagener) falls ill with a heart condition, Travers needs money.  Unfortunately his skills as a dockworker are no longer needed anywhere around town.  So he puts his fighting skills to use in outdoor shipyard brawls.  He soon rises through the ranks of boxcar joes thanks to his friend August, a character similar to Punchy from Fist Fighter (1989).  Travers is scheduled to fight Jet (Urquidez of Bloodmatch(1991) fame, portraying himself?) in an actual ring.  The match is dubbed the “Killer in Manila”. Hm.  But gangsters kidnapped his sister and want him to throw the fight.  Will Travers emerge victorious?
