Martial Outlaw starring Jeff Wincott has some really good fight sequences.

Two films by Lorenzo Lama that I always enjoy are Night of the Warrior and Bounty Tracker. 

Hawk's Vengeance and Recoil starring Gary Daniels are good. Oh, and Cold Harvest, too.

No Retreat, No Surrender 3 and Superfights both feature Keith Vitali and have HK styled choreography.

Dragon Fire featuring Dominick Labanca and Kisu has decent action and a really good end fight.

King of the Kickboxers and Bloodmoon. Big, silly fun.

Of the dozens and dozens low-budget Bloodsport rip-offs made in the late 80s and early 90s, were there any that really stood out?

@AlbertV - I'm looking in your direction.

Shootfighter was a rousing romp.

I second the recommendation for BLOODMOON. Watched it for the first time recently and it is very entertaining with some great action.

The first Bloodfist and its copycats in the forms of Full Contact and Dragon Fire. Bloodfist 2050 isn't that bad either. You get to see Matt Mullins vs. Chris Brewster (Daredevil's stunt double in the Marvel Netflix series) in that one. 

The Ultimate Game with JD Rifkin and TJ Storm also comes to mind. 

Heatseeker with Keith Cooke and Gary Daniels. Cooke vs. Cyborg kickboxers.
