Summer 1995. I first saw this on bootleg VHS under the original title One Armed Boxer after hearing about the US releasing it in 1973 as The Chinese Professionals through National General Pictures. Later in the spring of 1996, I watched it in Mandarin which has the sample of the 1971 Shaft theme. The original English dubbed version has a different theme which is something Shout Factory and Amazon Video Prime probably seemed not to realize. On Amazon Video Prime, it has a horrendous American English dubbing with the Shaft theme while Shout Factory used the Mandarin dialogue with the theme from the original English dubbed version before they released it.
