- Nominated: 'why don't you quit, round eye' as heckling of young Frank; 'brick not hit back', an iconic hat tip to Bruce Lee; Victor Lin's 'You Jackson? You look like a Jackson', taken as proof Ray should keep his name; the film has few quotes, so the obvious 'I break you, I break your friend' from Bolo rounds out the best ones.
- Returning to quotes, only three lines are said to Chong Li all film: his trainer's 'tomorrow we leave for the Kumite', Ray Jackson's 'I'm going to kill you, man', and Van Damme yelling 'Sand!'; everything said to him is fight-related, and a deleted scene where he apologizes to the broken-leg fighter is joked about.
