Does anyone agree or has anyone ever dissected this at all? I really do think Mikey had some of the coolest combination of fight scenes of all the turtles. I don't mean he was the best fighter, Leo was. Mikey definitely owned being the 2nd best by him owning Raph all the time.

Some of the cool fight scenes that stand out...

• Christmas aliens when he did that super spinning jump kick to one of the goons.
• Battle nexus fight with Kluh...him jumping over him and a low kick to the back of the knee. Also the spinning shell move.
• I believe it was the first fight with Shredders elite, he had this cool numchuck move that hit the guy right in the face. (sorry not very descriptive).

I don't know to me Mikey had some of the best scenes out of everyone there.

For my money the big episode long fight between Leonardo and ENTIRE FREAKIN' FOOT CLAN trumps all....:P

WIN.

I'd say Leo had the best fight scenes, mostly because the writers seemed to always make him go one-on-one with the villain at some point in the fight and deliver the critical blow.

But, animation-wise, many of Mikey's fights are very technically sound. Raph probably has the worst, since by the 3rd season all he really does is throw his sais at the enemies. Idiot.:tgrumble:

Yup and I like it how they always had Donny be the one that was always in trouble in his fights.

If I had a pizza for every time Raphie threw his sais at an enemy...I'd weight 500 pounds.

I also like how a couple different occasions Don tried to do fight moves he saw in movies and failed :tlol:

I have to agree Leo had the best fight scenes.... other then his massive take on the whole Foot organization fights his fight with the Rat King in "I, Monster" is in my opinion one of the best of the series.

Donnie shouldn't be discounted so quickly. He held his own quite well on several occasions. I'm surprised he wasn't emotionally crippled though, since so much crap happened to the poor guy.

I was thinking of the Leo and Shredder fight scene in return to NY.
But Leo's fight against the foot was pretty epic.

I know right? especially after being sent to that dystopian future and turning Chimera. sheesh.
Mikey had some good ones, but Leo had more. Mikey vs Kluh was awesome.

Agreed!

More characters needed.

I think the best fight scenes were the Shredder Strikes Back - Part One Leo and Foot fight and the Exodus - Part Two turtles-Splinter-Karai-Ch'Rell fight.

Mikey didn't have too many fight scenes where it was just him. The only one I can remember is him fighting Cyber-Shredder and in one minute defeating him by essentially shoving him into electricity. Which is a lame way to end an episode.

Mikey had some good fight scenes, but I'd have to say that Leo had the best ones. The fight with the Foot was really good as was the fights he had in The Ancient One, especially with that rock monster who showed him flashbacks. That was powerfully done.

Mikey had some good fight in the Battle Nexus

Ah, that's right!

I'll have to re-watch those, since the only ones I can remember are Splinter surrenduring and Mikey stepping away from Raph constantly.

I am pretty sure there more. He did have some interesting fights as Turtle Titans! lol

Mikey's best fight scene was against Kluh, by far. But it's hard to rate one-on-one battles when you hardly have any. Which is why Leo gets the nod for better fights.

If Michelangelo managed to have more fights and was serious about them like he was with Kluh, his would succeed Leonardo's. However, it didn't happen because Mikey just isn't that kind of fighter. It doesn't and wouldn't fit his character.

Agreed, Mikey has some of the best fight scenes ever.

Just from watching the style of his fighting or even just moving around from point A to point B, he is visually very limber. Where Leonardo may stand in defense in a situation, Michelangelo will usually so some kind of acrobatic movement even if it's just flipping himself up a manhole. It makes his fight scenes more interesting to me, anyway.

So, yes, Mikey is the nimble ninja.

Mikey had good fights but it was hard to get into them or root for him do to his show boating and attitude at times. I'd say his best fight for me personaly is his fight against the thugs in the Christmas episode when they where stealing little alien orphan dolls. Mostly because he was fightying for real and was serious about and wasn't tooting his own horn for once.

LOL, I like how this a thread about Mikey but half the thread talks about how awsome all the other turtles are!

Mikey was no slouch I'll give him that much, but seriously how can you say he had the best fight scenes of the turtles? Leonardo hands down!

Don had a really nice solo step up moment in Battle Nexus along side Usagi but overall I have to agree the Leo fight scenes are usually the most intense. When they have focused on Mikey they really go above and beyond with the animation. I think they make him very acrobatic, over the others, and it just looks pretty amazing

Yeah I change my mind, Leo had the best fight scenes :trazz:

I think Mikey had some of the best highlight combo moves though.

Definitely Leo. But Mikey has very awesome fight scenes as well, the 2-time Battle Nexus Champ. :P

Hmmm. My favorite and best fight scene to me was when Raph was blinded and the kid helped him out in Lone Raph and Cub....
