Looking for the name of a futuristic death match type sport movie, similar to Roller ball (1975) or Blood of Heroes, but this took place in an inside arena, where men wore leather and had crazy axes/maces with spikes etc.  Don't remember if there was a ball/net scoring system involved or if it was an all out team death match brawl. No vehicles, or skates of any sort, more like a 5 on 5 match.

Only other thing i can remember is that at one point the main character spent time in a desert (after i believe losing an important match).

My best guess on release date is 80's.

Any thoughts?

Maybe CLASH OF THE WARLORDS (1985).

Rayo, thanks for the reply and definitely appreciate the link with a pretty damn good summation of the entire movie. 

Unfortunately however, its not the movie I was looking for.  The one I'm thinking of is more focused around this sport that is played and the matches that occur. 

I'll post an update if I think of any more details.  I know I'm not working with much now.

Been a while since I've seen it, but check out  New Gladiators (1984).

Sounds like The Running Man to me....

Plot:
By 2017, the global economy has collapsed and American society has become a totalitarian police state, censoring all cultural activity. The government pacifies the populace by broadcasting a number of game shows in which convicted criminals fight for their lives, including the gladiator-style The Running Man, hosted by the ruthless Damon Killian, where “runners” attempt to evade “stalkers” and certain death for a chance to be pardoned and set free.

'Temmink' is a Dutch movie with roughly the same theme.

You may want to check out Endgame (1983).  It has a champion in a blood sport/post apocalypse situation that is then asked to assist a group of mutants out in the desert. 

A fan made trailer from Youtube is available here.
