History Film / UndisputedIIIRedemption

* KickTheDog: [[spoiler:The fighters in the losing side are summarily executed by the prison guard.]]

* ArtisticLicenseMartialArts: The fighting ruleset displayed in the film seems more than a bit random, as it allows for both ground and pound (as in Brazilian old school vale tudo) and long count [=KOs=] (as in early Japanese [[Wrestling/UniversalWrestlingFederation Pancrase/RINGS]], where ground and pound was frowned upon). The former rule makes the latter pointless - why would a fighter want to wait for a long count, potentially leaving his opponent time to recover, when he can legally pound on him nonstop until the referee gives him the win?
* ArtisticLicenseReligion: "Jericho" was the name of the city, the name of the one who brought it's walls down was Joshua. You'd think a devout Christian like Boyka would know that.
* BadassBoast: "God has given me only one thing; I am the most complete fighter in the world."[[note]][[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in that in this particular scene Boyka isn't really boasting - he's confessing that fighting is the only thing he's good at and if he can't win he feels it makes him worthless. It's quite sobering, really.]]

* BruceLeeClone: Lam Chai. Asian and wiry? Check. Barechested? Check. Screaming and making scary faces while fighting? Check. Spinning kicks? Check.

* DanceBattler: Andriago and his UsefulNotes/{{Capoeira}} style.

** Dolor strongly reminisces Paco from ''Film/{{Bloodsport}}''.

** Andriago also uses it whenever he manages to mount his opponent on the mat.

** Although Andriago or Lam at first seem to be limited to their capoeira and taekwondo specialties, they demonstrate some rounded MMA skills as well, as Andriago finishes a fight with ground and pound and both of them try armbars against their opponents. (In a psychological sense, Andriago also shows a hidden side when finishing his first opponent, as he goes apeshit with unorthodox two-fisted punishment as soon as he doesn't need his elegant capoeira anymore.)

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Lam Chai tries a flying armbar on Quiñones, but as he is too beaten down, he loses his grip and Dolor simply throws him to the ground. Later, Dolor gets his leg broken in one of his own kicks.

* HurricaneKick: The film showcases the best styles at this, UsefulNotes/{{Taekwondo}} and UsefulNotes/{{Capoeira}}. Korean fighter Lam Chai tries some kicking combinations against Dolor, and Andriago also chains spinning kicks from the ground in his match with Boyka.

* {{Irony}}: In a meta sense. Boyka submits Brazilian fighter Andriago with a triangle choke, a move popular in ''UsefulNotes/BrazilianJiuJitsu''.
** This might veer into GeniusBonus territory if one's at least somewhat aware of interactions between Capoeira and BJJ throughout history (hint: they were less than amicable).

* PetTheDog: After beating Andriago, for the first time Boyka helps his opponent up from the mat.

* RealMenLoveJesus: Yuri still being a Christian devout, although not so explicitly as the previous film.

* SmugSnake: Dolor comes off as the top dog of the tournament but that is only because the ones running the tournament rig it in his favor by having the fighters do slave labor to wear them down before one of them fights Dolor.

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Some dubs spell Silva's first name as "Andriago", "Rodrigo" and even "Santiago". His heavy accent doesn't help when he presents himself in the original. Same with Lam Chai, which is changed to "Chai Lam" or "Chi Lam".[[note]]On IMDB Lateef's character is labelled "Rodrigo" for whatever that's worth.[[/note]]
** This Brazilian troper has never, ever seen anyone named "Andriago". "Rodrigo", on the other hand, is extremely common.

* WorthyOpponent: Turbo and Boyka considers each other this by the end of the film. Also, before that, Boyka and Andriago Silva. Yuri even compliments the latter for his fighting skills. [[BilingualBonus Rodrigo returns the compliment in Portuguese.]]
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: During their respective fights against Boyka, Andriago does a step-up Japanese arm drag, while Dolor performs Wrestling/MasaakiMochizuki's Sankakugeri.

* ArtisticLicenseMartialArts: Even more than the previous film. The fighters perform all kinds of crazy flying stunts in their fights while boasting of more or less unlimited stamina and endurance.

* StockSubtitle: Of the "Redemption" variety.

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Some dubs spell Silva's first name as "Andriago", "Rodrigo" and even "Santiago". His heavy accent doesn't help when he presents himself in the original. Same with Lam Chai, which is changed to "Chai Lam" or "Chi Lam".[[note]]on IMDB Lateef's character is labelled "Rodrigo" for whatever that's worth.[[/note]]

It was mostly lauded as a worthy sequel to ''Last Man Standing'', marked (as was the last one) by incredible choreography that was unaided by CGI, wires, or stunt doubles.

* AlasPoorVillain: SmugSnake that he was, as [[spoiler: Dolor lies on the ring floor, screaming his head off in agony]] it's more or less impossible not to feel a stab of pity. It doesn't help that it more or less [[HistoryRepeats mirrors what happened to Boyka]] at the end of the second film.
