00:00Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we'll be looking at epic TV fight scenes that kept
00:14us on the edge of our seats, holding our breath and unable to look away.
00:18As much as we appreciate the ferocious, bloody, and ruthless battle of Blackwater Bay, we'll
00:22be excluding large-scale battles.
00:31Number 10.
00:32Flash vs. Arrow.
00:33The Flash.
00:34The grand showdown between DC heroes and the Flash crossover episode was eagerly anticipated
00:38and didn't disappoint.
00:49When a metahuman infects Barry with uncontrollable rage, Oliver is the only one who can stop
00:53his rampage.
00:54Who doesn't love a good superhero fight, especially between friends with contrasting
00:58personalities?
00:59Despite Barry's superpower giving him an advantage, this fight was intense.
01:13Barry got absurdly fast, delivering lightning-fast blows while Oliver relied on intelligence,
01:18carefully calculated moves, and a tranquilizer to bring Barry down.
01:28With great visuals, the fight packs a serious punch.
01:31Number 9.
01:32Lexa vs. Rowan.
01:33The 100.
01:34In the 100's rugged world, picking the toughest fighter is no easy task.
01:38However, Lexa remains one unforgettable badass warrior.
01:41Her showdown with Rowan and daring defeat of the Ice Queen in season 3 shows she's
01:45a force to be reckoned with.
01:56This nail-biting battle begins with the Ice Queen, Nya, challenging Lexa's leadership.
02:00To prove herself worthy as Hedda, Lexa proposes a fight to the death, which Nya accepts, selecting
02:05her son as her champion.
02:15Fearless Lexa steps up as her own champion, engaging in a savage, flawlessly choreographed
02:19battle with Rowan that had us holding our breath.
02:21And just when we thought it couldn't get any more epic, Lexa also dispatches Nya with
02:25a well-aimed spear.
02:33Number 8.
02:34Prison Fight.
02:35Reacher.
02:36When Jack Reacher starts counting, you know it's about to get brutal.
02:42Prime Video's Reacher is an adrenaline-packed ride into Reacher's world, brought to life
02:46by six-foot-three Alan Richson, lauded for nailing Lee Child's iconic character.
02:50The series kicks off with a bang, hooking fans with its peek into our hero's tactical
02:54mind and ferocious combat skills.
03:02In this memorable premiere, Reacher finds himself outnumbered in a prison shower after
03:05being wrongfully incarcerated.
03:07He warns the goons to back off before he reaches three.
03:16But before the countdown elapses, he's already jabbing elbows into faces, bashing heads and
03:20gouging eyeballs, proving why he's the last guy you'd want to cross.
03:24Talk about swift justice.
03:32Number 7.
03:33Hannibal vs. Jack Crawford.
03:35Hannibal.
03:36Some may be too dark for some, but it's undeniably brilliant.
03:39Its season two premiere features one of TV's most captivating fights.
03:42When Crawford confronts Hannibal in his kitchen over framing Will, it sets the stage for the
03:46show's biggest fight.
03:59The tension in their stare down as Jack enters is palpable.
04:01The brutal clash that follows is wild enough to be entertaining, yet also bone-chillingly
04:06painful.
04:15Witnessing their once-promising relationship end in bloodshed is a visceral experience.
04:20The two prove to be evenly matched, transforming their fight into a mesmerizing dance that
04:24culminates in an unexpected twist.
04:36Number 6.
04:37Clay Burton vs. Nola Longshadow.
04:38Banshee.
04:39Cinemax's Banshee is downright addictive.
04:41Thanks to its finely crafted characters and pulse-pounding fight scenes, among these,
04:45the fight between Burton and Nola stands out.
04:54Any true fan knows you don't mess with Burton.
04:56But in the third season, Nola throws caution to the wind in her quest for vengeance.
05:00To announce her presence, she throws a tomahawk at Burton and hell breaks loose as one of
05:04Banshee's most creatively vicious fights ensues.
05:15Each punch, kick, and dodge is choreographed to deliver a tense and thrilling experience.
05:19The moment Burton's glasses came off and he cocked his head, we knew it was over for
05:36Nola.
05:37Though her end was tragic, she went out like the badass she was.
05:40Number 5.
05:41School Fight.
05:42Cobra Kai.
05:43Over five seasons, the 2018 martial arts comedy-drama has been a blast for both the Karate Kid fans
05:48and younger generations.
05:54Ever wonder what would happen if high school students could use karate to settle scores?
05:58Cobra Kai brings this to life in its season 2 finale, where confrontations reach a fever
06:02pitch.
06:03This inevitable clash between Cobra Kai dojo and Miyagi-Do karate students in the school
06:08hall over a kiss is truly epic.
06:18With breathtaking choreography and impressive camera work, it's like a powder keg of teenage
06:22emotions exploding.
06:31What makes this cinematic chaos even more compelling is the emotional ties viewers have
06:35with each character.
06:36It's so thrilling that we couldn't look away, even though we knew it would end tragically.
06:49Number 4.
06:50Hundred Eyes vs. Jossie Dao.
06:51Marco Polo.
06:52There's nothing quite like the thrill of a showdown between evenly matched rivals where
06:55fans can't easily predict the outcome.
06:57This electrifying dynamic unfolds in Marco Polo's season 1 finale, as Hundred Eyes faces
07:01off against Jossie Dao.
07:11It begins with Marco stumbling into Jossie Dao's throne room after the successful invasion
07:16of Shangyang.
07:17Rather than handing Marco an easy win over Jossie Dao, the creators offer a far more
07:21satisfying twist.
07:24One of the show's most formidable warriors arrives to shake things up in what follows
07:28as a breathtaking display of martial arts and mastery, leaving fans spellbound.
07:43Jossie Dao's shocked expression when he realizes that Hundred Eyes knows the Praying
07:46Mantis technique?
07:47What a priceless moment.
07:55Number 3.
07:56The Mountain vs. The Red Viper.
07:57Game of Thrones.
07:58Oberyn vs. The Mountain is unquestionably one of Game of Thrones' most exhilarating
08:02fights.
08:09In season 4, a trial by combat is held for Tyrion, and Oberyn decides to champion him
08:13in order to avenge his sister.
08:15Oberyn's die-hard supporters like Ellaria are left worried at the sight of the Mountain.
08:19How could someone the Viper's size possibly stand a chance against the giant?
08:29Yet when the fight begins, Oberyn's agile moves inspire faith in his victory... until
08:33he gets cocky.
08:41Equally memorable is the violent battle between the Hound and Brienne, which starts out in
08:45a knightly fashion but escalates into a savage fight with screaming and biting.
08:56Number 2.
08:57Final Battle.
08:58Into the Badlands.
08:59While the abrupt end of AMC's post-apocalyptic show left many disappointed, its incredible
09:04fight scenes remain unmatched on TV.
09:15Its final battle serves as the fitting end to a superb martial arts series.
09:19As the Widow, Tilda, and Gaius fight MK, Sunny, Bajie, and Kanan unite against Pilgrim.
09:30It's a showdown of epic proportions, with hand-to-hand combat and sword fights galore.
09:34As blades clash and fists fly, beloved characters sacrifice their lives for the Badlands' future.
09:38And Sunny finding the inner strength to slay Pilgrim after being stabbed?
09:42That's simply awe-inspiring.
09:43Widow's fight with Moon in Season 3 is another superb example of martial arts at its finest.

10:22Marvel's Daredevil on Netflix is an incredible series based on the titular MCU's masked vigilante.
10:27One of its remarkable features?
10:28How it revolutionized fight scenes.
10:37With its long, one-shot sequences, the visceral battles in limited spaces are simply stunning,
10:42sucking viewers into exhausting fights.

10:481.

11:00symphony of brutality and creativity.
