The King of the Kickboxers (also known as Karate Tiger V and No Retreat, No Surrender 4) is a 1990 martial arts film directed by Lucas Lowe and starring Loren Avedon as Jake Donahue and Billy Blanks as Khan.

Sean is able to overpower his opponent and wins after a spin kick knocks the Thai fighter out.

En route to their hotel after the fight, Jake and Sean are ambushed by some armed men.

Khan, angry with the decision, fights Sean and obliterates him in front of young Jake.

It has been ten years and Jake is now a New York City detective who has gone undercover to bust a drug deal in an abandoned warehouse.

The dealer laughs it off at first, until Jake reveals his badge and wire, which infuriates his fellow officers.

When Dan is cut for real and then shot at, he is shocked to discover the body of a dead woman.

Jake's attempt proves unsuccessful with Prang showcasing his martial arts skills, knocking out all of the muggers and sending them away.

The loss caused Prang to start playing the part of a drunken hermit nobody could feel threatened by and yet he had wanted revenge on Khan for a long time.

When Jake begins winning his fights, it grabs the attention of Mr. McKinney, the scout for the snuff films.

The next day, Jake is ready and heads to the location, which consists of a booby-trapped dome made of bamboo.

However, Khan, wearing a black mask, arrives and has Molly tied up and throws Prang's body to the bottom, watery lake where Jake is shocked.

A visibly upset Jake reveals the photo of Sean from ten years ago and throws it to Khan.

In his last breath, Khan grabs the rope in an attempt to send Molly to a grounded spike in the water only for Jake to rescue her.

The Thai authorities blow up the bamboo dome as Molly and Jake celebrate as they can start their lives over together.

Avedon claimed Rose was acting like a "prima donna" and told her to "shut up" and that she had bad-mouthed him afterwards.

James Goddard, former member of Research and Development at Capcom confirmed in an interview with Capcom Unity that Blanks' character of Khan was the inspiration for his creating the character of Dee Jay in the video game Super Street Fighter II in 1993.
