What is your favorite bare-knuckled, one-on-one, good guy versus bad guy fight to ever be filmed?

One of my favorites is Lee Marvin v. Robert Culp in The Great Scout and Cathouse Thursday.

Yankee vs. Hortlund

I find Hortlund blocks the punches with his head just a little too much though.

Yankee definately is the finer boxer here!!

Ah, the gentle sounds of a dead horse being beaten...

If you can include kung fu movies, especially recent ones, it is impossible to do...  some Jet Li something or other I'd guess.

Ew Kratzer, Jet Li is a little skinny Hong Kong pretty boy fake. Bruce Li, now he was real.

Stalone vs Morrison in Rocky whatever the number was. Bronson in Hard Times good also. Wayne vs Dern in The Cowboys.

Opening line from fight scene in The Great Scout and Cathouse Thursday: Lee Marvin squaring off against Robert Culp for possession of money Marvin stole from Culp as back pay for money Culp stole from Marvin and his partner (You do understand so far...don't you?):

Marvin:  Jack, I want one thing understood.  Win, lose, or draw now...I MEAN  THIS... I ain't votin' for William Howard Taft!

Culp:  (Startled)  Sam...we've always had our little differences but we've always voted the straight Republican ticket!

Marvin:  Well I ain't voting for William Howard Taft!

Culp:  Sam...(Connects with a jab - smack ) We're both Republicans...(Jab-smack ) We're going to vote the Republican Ticket (Jab-smack )!

Floors Marvin with a right cross...





Absolutely priceless scene.

You guys are such the tards.  Everyone knows that the best fight scenes ever made are to be found in this, the greatest epic ever to be transformed from script to celluloid.

Ladies, I give you...

GYMKATA!!!!!!!!!

The masterful blend of gymnastics and karate!  Kurt Thomas is such the badass, he is Rocky, Rambo, Bruce Lee, Jet Li, Woody Wooddonut with a smidge of the Tazmanian Devil all rolled into one.
