action

After Ip Man recovered from the injury and fled to Hong Kong with his family, he opened a Wing Chun school there. But the competition is fierce and he has to prove himself in the fight against the local champions. He wins all fights and is therefore entitled to start his own business. But he did the math without the English, who as colonial rulers in post-war Hong Kong are in charge. After his friend Hung Chun-Nam is killed by the reigning boxing world champion Taylor “The Twister” Milos, Ip Man challenges him. The fight takes place in public. After the final fight against the English boxer, Ip Man decides the match for himself. Before the end credits, a ten-year-old student is shown who identifies himself as Bruce Lee .
