Favorite fist fight scene in a movie (Not martial arts)

MOVIE FIGHT SCENES

FOR COMEDY, when Frank Drebbin (leslie nielson) in the opening of one of the naked gun sequels beats up Saddam Hussein, the Ayatola, Gorbachev, & ossama bin Laden?
 
How about that fight in "Sheep Man" (I think that was the name of it) where Glen Ford goes in the restaurant and finds "the toughest guy in town" and proceeds to stir his rice with his cigar. Now, that was a class bash.
 
Here's three great fight scenes to remember.

!) The Devils Brigade. Between the soldiers and the loggers.

2) To Hell and Back. Between the Ar,y Air Corps and the Infantry.

3) The Wings of Eagles. Fight between Army and the Navy.

Cant find a fight scene showing the battle between the brigade and the loggers but here are two pics showing Claude Akins being bested by a Canadian Sergeant (Jeremy Slate) in the Brigades chow hall.

up the back flap on the stage coach on..............

It wasn't much of a fight but it was pretty cool in the obscure little movie titled "Knock Around Guys" When Vin Diesel found the town "tough guy" and mopped up the bar floor with him.
Diesel, "500".
Bad guy, "500 what?"
Diesel, "It takes about 500 fights to know you are a real tough guy."

Then he gives the bad guy a moment to reflect on that wisdom and gives him a vicious head-but and then just beats him like a government mule. It's about the worst beating I ever saw anyone take in a movie and I don't think any one could survive such a beating in real life.

I loved it......
 
Best Bronson fight(s) in Hard Times

Best John Wayne vs. Ward Bond in The Quiet Man

Best Clint Eastwood in Every Which Way But Loose.

Sean "Trooper" Thornton's opponent, Squire Will Danaher is played by Victor McLaglen.

As I understand it, the entire fight scene was done in one take.

The entire production was a family affair. Barry Fitzgerald (Michaeleen Flynn) and Arthur Shields (the Reverend Playfair) were brothers. Francis Ford (Dan Tobin, the man who rises from his deathbed to watch the fight) was director John Ford's brother. One of the IRA men and the young priest were played by Maureen O'Hara's brothers and four of John Wayne's children were extras.

One might guess that it's one of my favorite films.
