Duel of Fists (Chinese: 拳擊; Quan Ji or Kuen gik) is a 1971 Hong Kong martial arts film directed by Chang Cheh and starring David Chiang and Ti Lung. Filmed on location in Bangkok, the story concerns a Hong Kong engineer (Chiang) who goes to Thailand to find his long-lost half-brother (Ti Lung), who is a Muay Thai boxer. For its 1973 UK release, the film was retitled The Chinese Connection and is often confused with the Bruce Lee film Fist of Fury, which was also known in some areas as The Chinese Connection.
