A GI in Vietnam saves his buddy's life, but in the process is shot in the head. The injury results in brain damage to the point where he basically has a child's brain in a (very large) man's body. When they get out of the army the two open up a bar together, but some local gangsters make things tough for them after they refuse to take part in brutal "cage" matches where fighters battle to the point of serious injury and/or death.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Lou Ferrigno's serious dramatic pivot post-Hulk, and he reportedly studied children with developmental disabilities for the role. The film barely got theatrical release.
Part of a weird 80s micro-genre: Vietnam vets with disabilities exploited for violence (see: 'Born on the Fourth of July' but trashy). Reflects genuine lack of veteran support services.
