Some great choices here

Leody I always watch that scene every now and again, I love that fight. I always get a burst of adrenaline when the commentator goes "He's cut..... the Russian's cut"

Controversial decision this one but I'm sticking to it.
No martial arts, no awesome weaponry, no slick moves and one of the two people involved is disabled.
It's not so much what happens in the fight, it's what the murder represents.
For an entire movie the audience's blood has boiled as they've hated one woman passionately and wanted nothing more than to see her dead.
James Caan kills her in the best possible way and in the way we all want him to.

Good call - I remember the first time I watched it after she'd hobbled him - shouting at the screen 'crawl like the wind man.'

ong bak - just about all the fights.

most movies ruin fight scenes, over dramatised hollywood crap. you see blokes just trading clean punches, as if it happens like that, cleanly landed punches 8,9,10 times each and still standing as if nothing has happened. yeh, right.
the more dramatic and pathetically unrealistic they get the less i enjoy them.

some that do stand out as highly entertaining though are a few from the movie 'taken' and plenty on the bourne trilogy films.

i must say the fitness levels of hollywood fighters are superb. anyone who's gone toe to toe will know how much it takes out of you. 2 minutes feel like a life time and most people after about that time start to struggle to keep their hands up, lose speed in their punches, get sloppy etc. it's quite amazing how these hollywood stars can to t2t for 5 mins+ at the same pace, eating uncountable amounts of heavy hits and still soldier on.
superb stuff.
