You can stream Robot Jox (1990) on Amazon Prime with a subscription.

50 years after a nuclear war, the two superpowers handle territorial disputes in a different way. Each fields a giant robot to fight one-on-one battles in official matches, each piloted by a man inside, known as robot jockeys or jox. The contest for possession of Alaska will be fought by two of the best. The conscientious Achilles fights for the Americans. Opposing him is a Russian, Alexander.

Giant mechanical gladiators settle border disputes to prevent total nuclear annihilation. This practical effects heavy spectacle trades philosophical depth for the visceral thrill of heavy metal combat.
