Two of my favorites:
Robert Shaw fighting Sean Connery on a train in "From Russia With Love".
Ernest Borgnine and Lee Marvin fighting on a train in "Emperor of the North".
Seems trains and good fights go together.

Excellent one! The bareknuckle fights in "Hard Times" (Charles Bronson) get my vote.

Eli beating Knox to death was such a great one.

Probably not in the major movie category but... Every time I hear "fight scenes" I have to think of the movie, "They Liver" with Roddy Piper(sp), an ex wrestler I think.) Don't know if it's the best but one of the longest fight scenes. Seemed like it went on forever.  I actually like that movie tho. It was more a fun type flick.  TIS

The Brad Pitt and Jim Gandolfini movie that came out last year, KILLING THEM SOFTLY has a scene where Ray Liotta gets a pretty awesome beating. That was one of the most brutal fight scenes ever filmed, Yogi. Unfortunately, the movie pretty much sucked. And I had high hopes for it because it was based on George V. Higgins's "Cogan's Trade," which is a classic in post-modern crime fiction. I think the problem was that they should have left it a period pice and set it in the '70s. When I read Higgins today he brings back that decade so vividly that I can practically smell the polyester  . Check out the book, Yogi. I'd never steer you wrong with a book recommendation; you know that .
