Better known as MANCHU BOXER. I think it was released as BONECRUSHERS. Kind of an ordinary film, though I like Wu Ma in pretty much anything.

This film was made around '74, and was used as a vehicle to promote the Iron Palm, which Liu Yung plays the title character. Ironic, that Yung soon after left and joined the Shaws, and became a stronger supporting player there.
This film was also choreographed by Sammo and Tong Wei.
Rough around the edges as far as action, but the Iron Palmist was a real person. GH put out better films during this era, such as The Himalayan.

"Whenever you're ready, I'll take on any Japanese here."

Is Tong Wei = Stephen Tung Wei? Wouldn't he have been just a 'kid' in '74, having done Enter the Dragon a year earlier as a young teen?

MANCHU BOXER was filmed in 1973.

I believe the Korean print is a different edit to the HK release, but I don't know what the differences are...?

You're right, KFS, my bad... The actor/choreographer I meant
to say was Wilson Tong. I was going a bit fast in my response.:D

Looks like an alright flick. What's up with Jaman? Purchasing the film entails? A DVD sent to your home with professional packaging? Is renting merely being able to view it from their site on your computer?

Please... forgive my ingnorance here.

So what's up with Jaman?
