I’ve seen one where as soon as the bell rings one of the fighter starts running and tries to throw a huge flying knee. The other fighter just steps out of the way and knocks him out of the air with a right hand. It looked nasty.

Also from a movie, but I really like [this very short fight from **Ong-Bak**](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sDbaAWPwl4), which goes down in similar fashion. Tony Jaa is so damn fast and hard, I think he might actually be the result of crossbreeding a battleship with a spider monkey.

Yeah that kick was beautiful. It definitely set the tone for the movie quite well. I love it he just looks like a well oiled clock with that maneuver.
