* ShoutOut:
** The film poster has Ho with eggs taped over his eyes, imitating Series/{{Ultraman}}.
** As the first round of the final duel between Ho and Lau has them standing still without doing anything, the commentator reads off a copy of ''Literature/HeavenSwordAndDragonSabre'' to give the illusion of a duel to the death. However, he drops the copy mid-narration and mistakenly reads a copy of ''Literature/JinPingMei'' instead.

Added DiffLines:

* ParanoiaGambit: Ho's strategy against Lau caters to his fear. [[spoiler:The month-long training mostly consists of Ho and Tat messing around, to unnerve Lau]]. This pays off in the first round, where [[spoiler:Ho just turns his back on Lau and waits. Lau is too afraid to throw the first punch]].


Added DiffLines:

* WaxOnWaxOff: Tat's training is a parody of this. The month-long training is just Tat and Ho having fun together... except for [[spoiler:the grappling practice on a truck]].
* WorldOfBadass: [[spoiler:At the climax, a judge disapproves of Lau continuing the feud between him and Ho. When Lau persists, everyone watching the fight, audience and judges included, reveal themselves to be practitioners of Eagle Claw Kung Fu, and attack him]].
