Wissenswertes
The American TV spots for the film's 1973 release by National General Pictures (under the title "The Chinese Professionals") used the international main theme for Bruce Lee's film Die Todesfaust des Cheng Li (1971) (a fellow Golden Harvest production, also distributed in the US by National General Pictures), composed by Peter Thomas. The original Mandarin language versions of both films had music arranged by Fu-Ling Wang, and both films were censored shortly after their Hong Kong releases due to violent content.

Patzer
Shortly after singeing his hand, there is a scene at the restaurant in which the hand is its original color with no singe marks.

Alternative Versionen
The UK cinema version was heavily cut for violence by the BBFC with edits to most of the fight scenes including slow motion stomach and knee blows, an arm breaking, closeups of weaponry, a two fingered blow, head kicks, and a scene where a diagram is used to show fatal pressure points on a human body.

Fantastic old school martial arts classic

One Armed Boxer is directed and starring the legendary Jimmy Wang Yu. Wang Yu was the first male kung Fu superstar with also legendary director Chang Cheh's swordplay classic The One Armed Swordsman. Before that the genre was dominated by women and was in a more graceful and operatic style. One Armed Boxer was over a decade after that and is a really fast paced, action packed and innovative martial arts film. Quite violent and bloody, it's quite gritty and has nods to ) both samurai and spaghetti westerns of the period. There is quite an eclectic mix of martial arts styles on display and a awesome array of colorful villains ( which Wang Yu must dispatch). Most notably a Okinawan karate master with fangs! This movie I didn't know much about previously, but I really enjoyed it. A lot of the material here is pretty wild and unpolished, but comes across well and nicely structured and choreographed. I also learned that cult flick The Master Of The Flying Guillotine is the sequel to this. That movie is a must see and is completely insane! Thumbs up for One Armed Boxer!
