"Go to another angle" Johnny thought this was filmed by ESPN! : )
🤣🤣🤣
Lol
😂😂😂
Those jokes are getting better and better
That shii had me dying 😂
"Go to another angle" is the Johnniest thing Johnny could have said at this moment
“What’s an Uber?”
Johnny? Dude, I was thinking that exact same thing. Go to another f***ing angle!
@@Ithikajewel3 "what's a Facebook?"
''Whats wifi'' and ''my students told me to get an apple( mac) ,you sold me a lemon ''
“What’s wrong with Kool-Aid?”
To all those saying, "the pressure point didn't work" it did work. Johnny even yells, "what the hell, man?!?!". It's just that Johnny knew how to improvise and continue fighting w/o the use of his left arm.
Johnny is definitely a good fighter... "Adapt and improvise" and despite being at a disadvantage no less...
And Daniel's pressure point attack definitely worked... He may have not mastered it yet but the potential is definitely there...
He counters his lack of offense without his left arm with more offense. What a chad
what I love even more is that he doesn't yell it he just says it so casually and proceeds to counter it perfectly while Danny is so intense and even looks mad.
yeah daniel made the mistake of taking his time to go for the knee.
Because Johnny is not Daniels enemy
This is an example of a show done right. A show where the writers actually respect their fans and love the source material. One of the rare gems in a sea of garbage these days
havent seen season 5 i can tell
@@llamazing4326
*What's wrong with season 5?*
The only show that did a sequel the right way
Yeah the Witcher should have been like this. Where the writers actually respected the source material instead of it being tossed out the window for politics.
@@llamazing4326 I did. It was ok, wasn’t the worst thing I’ve ever seen but it wasn’t anything to write home about either. Definitely got a little too over the top (even for a series like this) but overall the whole thing is pretty enjoyable and a love letter to the original movies.
I liked how Johnny’s response to the pressure point was an aggressive attack. He stays true to his style, always striking first, doesn’t always work but he stays true to it.
Not at all. Johnny used true traditional karate while Daniel had to resort to the evil voodoo magic Miyagi had taught him.
Striking firster lol
@@kennethmalone4689 miyagi is evil 😭😭😭😂😂😂 bro get out

The fact that johnny was able to counter the pressure point technique was amazing
Every move has a counter so I'm not surprised
He shouldn’t of used it though bro
Pressure points aren’t really hard to counter anyways
That was plot armor
@@houseofmatrix6174 Lol how? Can tell you don’t know martial arts. News flash Pressure points are not that hard to counter.
I just love how Daniel and Johnny are so used to fighting one another that immediately after the fight there is no hard feelings or anything lol, just back to normal.
Back to normal?? They split dojos after this what are you saying
@@JohnEpresent Back to normal. Friends, but still have a little bad blood between them. They didn't take the fight itself personal.
johnny should have done the crane kick in that night
Also Johnny has grown into a better man, although occasionally he goes back to his old ways, but it’s Johnny so I can let it ride
@@essaeldridgeYoBro yeah but le russo is the real bully and littleman
The fact johnny is the only character who has countered the pressure point technique is crazy
Daniel uses pressure points
Johnny: fine I'll just use my legs
Kreese: *The Buffoon Is Flummoxed*
daniel didn't use the pressure point on Johnny's legs
@@bornokification johnny got an arm paralyzed and then won a point using his legs while Kreese was *Flummoxed*
cuz he didn’t use it on his legs
He did have a little bit of time to recover, or maybe can just tank damage a little better than most? That said his improvised take-down more than compensated.
I like how even with the pressure point technique Johnny got that point on Daniel
Johnny is great fighter

Anybody else get goose bumps when they got in the same fighting positions they did 30 years ago while showing clips from their first fight. That's how you add to an old story.
Yep.
I was actually expecting for split scene where their older selves are mirroring the exact same fighting moves as their younger selves all those years ago
@@Rylosalex that would’ve been awesome
Star wars could learn a thing or two
@@ryanlehning556 You got that right. Star wars is beyond help at this point.

The Karate Kid is, with Cobra Kai, one of those rare franchises that managed to keep up the original spirit and make it work, while honoring the nostalgia.
It’s amazing how good old IPs can be when the writers love the IPs and respect their fans.
Unfortunately most modern writers seem to hate the IPs and the fans.
Cobra Kai does it all the right way, I’m so glad this show exists.
Spot on, sir.
Just in case anyone missed it: after their last attack, both stand up and want to see the results. No provoking, chitchat or arguments here. This scene is also very good because it shows that they actually have much respect for one-another, after what happened in the first 3 seasons.
But Daniel won. Johnny landed a direct punch to the head which is against the all valley tournament rules.
@@charleshermosisima4749hawk scores a point in the S1 tournament for a punch to the head
@@charleshermosisima4749 Daniel kicked Johnny in the face simultaneous to Johnny's backhand punch to Daniel's face. They BOTH hit each other in the face together and fell down together. So technically, they both lost.
I was so scared when Daniel used the pressure point on Johnny, but was happy Johnny countered it. It shows they both are amazing fighters.
Why were you scared?
@@xxwhispersxx2856 Then Johnny would've gotten 3-1ed
Idk why he used it?
Didn't counter it he let him go
@@RiddlerQM Chozen would've definitely been mad at Daniel for that.
This wasn't a life or dead situation.
Plus he even did the technique half-@ssed.
Laughed so hard! When Johnny watched the replay and said "Go to a another Angle"🤣
He thinks technology is magic 😂
He thought he was filmed by ESPN
@@vaavet710 jajajajajaja SIIII XDDD
"But...there is no other angle"
Love your band!
1:56 That's the same move Hawk use against Robby, amazing
I'm amazed that no one talk about it. I litterally said that the day i saw Hawk's victory.
There are a lot of moves students do in reference to the senseis. In the same fight Robby used that distracting move of one arm, Silver used when he met Robby for the first time when he was training Kenny. Sam using the same pose Chosen used when beating the senseis of cobra kai, however it never shows Chozen teaching that to Sam. And a lot more so.
I live how the writers clearly understood how much the fans were waiting for this....then
exceuted it masterfully. Perfect fight and ending
And not siding with either character.
It's a draw.
Brilliant.
My favorite part was the Twitter rampage and Demetri is like “who does he think he’s tweeting to? You’re literally his only follower”! I died!!! 😂
1:48 I hope Daniel or Chozen use those pressure point moves against Terry Silver in season 5
And you can see that he actually only has one follower
Hashbrown I dont believe it
I thought I was the only 1 WHO died 😂💀
@@kodesh1674 the pressure point move had its time so I don't think they should use it again as an effective move since it can get repetitive
Johnny countering the pressure point technique was one of the most badass moments of this season.
He reacted it before daniel could go for his legs,, different story if daniel went for the legs first...
For every action there is a reaction...
definitly

Literally jumped out of my seat when Johnny countered the pressure point technique!
yeah bro same here i thought it was over when daniel used that technique but when he countered it, was the most badass moment of the season

Has anyone notice how Daniel and Johnny represent the yin Yang ☯️? Daniel in white with the black belt, and Johnny in black with the bald eagle. Symbolic of how chaos and order need each other
Nice comment👍
You mean their hair colors contrast their uniforms
Gotta admit that Johnny and Daniel knocking each other out proves that they both have great skills and teachings that students can learn from
Both have a lot to learn. They aren't where their masters were at their age. Johnny beating a old Kreese doesn't count Danial may be able to beat a old Miyagi too.
@@kievonJSmoothSoul Nobody is beating an old Miyagi. He was on another level. ;)
the way daniel was trying to push him out really bothered me tho
I thought the double KO was homage to end scene of Rocky 3 movie where it looks like Rocky and Appollo would knock each other out
@@kievonJSmoothSoul you sound so goofy
Not only did Johnny counter the pressure-point attack, but his second point is a mirror of the second point Daniel scored on him decades ago. Using the legs to take his opponent to the ground before striking. A beautiful call-back.
It works even better in this context instead of just a pointless callback for fanservice's sake. Johnny was down a usable arm, he could only perform a takedown with the right side of his upper body so he used his legs instead. I'm very impressed, both at the choreography and respect of the source material without resulting to cheap fan pandering that has no substance. There's an actual reason Johnny would runback the technique that worked at the All-Valley.
Its also the same move that Mr Miyagi did on Daniel when he was teaching him how to strike before the tournament - When Daniel got cocky and started doing the Ali Shuffle, Mr Miyagi did that very same takedown. I think that's where Daniel learnt it.
Kind of proves Johnny is able to think on his feet and adapt, while Daniel is still stuck in his ways.
That’s also how Eli won the finals against Robby.
@@arfhat89 and an important reminder that he and the other students enjoyed learning both styles.
This is amazing.. as teenagers, they had a match, and as adults, they had a rematch.🤩
and watch....once they are both in a senior's home, they'll have a match....again.
“Go to another angle”
Like Johnny thought this was some UFC fight😂
Props to both William Zabka (56) and Ralph Macchio (60) for doing this awesome fight at their ages!
Mind blowing that Ralph is older than William. In the first movie, he looks much younger than William. But that goes to show you that body structure makes a difference
@@Cayoroots he's also older than terry silver
@@Cayoroots
Not only that but he’s older than Thomas Ian Griffith (Terry Silver) and looking at both of them, you’d never think that were the case.
@@jesuspernia8031 sim. O Larusso parecia ter 20, e já tava beirando os 30. O silver parecia ter mais de 32.
Yeahh Ralph has been noted for looking extremely young. Even during the 80s and 90s he was 30 looking like 18
One thing that doesn't get talked about here is how Miguel and Sam announced the points reflected both of them veering away from their previous senseis and towards new styles. Miguel was the observer on Johnny's side of the mat but firmly announced Daniel's point, to Johnny looking at him shocked. Meanwhile Sam was on Daniel's side of the mat and firmly called Lawrence's point, to Daniel's shocked reaction from her
It was a great reflection on how both teens changed recently, and both senseis felt in those moments that they were let down a bit by eachother's respective students
But they really want their sensei to win you know at the last hit when they both hit together they both said their sensei's name
Seems more impartial that way. If Sam were calling out points for Daniel it just wouldn’t look legit.
Miguels persona is more geared towards miyagi do.
I noticed that too it was funny
It actually seemed to me the way that Sam and Miguel looked at Daniel and Johnny after they got hit, that they were disappointed that their original senseis were losing points when their style was supposed to be superior...
johnny "go to another angle" like it was ESPN 😂😂😂
This goes to show that Johnny's durable especially with the arm disabling technique used against him, and the music in that bit is epic!
Also, the countermove he sent against Daniel is smart as he taught his students to fight one handed just in case. TBH, Johnny can improvise on the fly as much as Larusso can.
I think Johnny can improvise on the fly a little better than Larusso can to be honest.
@@dionshadow True, but both are my favorite fighters
@@dionshadow nope. Daniel beat silver
@@AirbenderHawk Daniel beat silver
@@masonwright7700 The apprentice beats him as the master did years ago, it’s poetic Justice
Daniel used the most advanced Miyagi technique he knows (which almost killed Kreese) and Johnny was still able to break it.
Johnny is truly a badass!
Makes sense why Chozen originally didn't want to share the secrets of Mayagi-Do. It was a last resort, life-or-death tactic that Daniel ended up using in a mock tournament.
Even when Daniel faced Chozen, Chozen could of killed him if he wanted to.
johnny wasnt much of a badass when sliver had him dead on the ground
@@elipav484 I mean he kinda cheap shotted him with a head kick and he was stunned for most of that fight
@@elipav484 silva is by far the strongest fighter so far , if you look back at the fight w miyagi from the third movie he holds his own way against miyagi way longer then kreese , I think he’s the best fighter in the series .
This scene was very clever. When Daniel made that move and Johnny's arm went limb I immediately felt sorry for Johnny thinking he is going to lose but he turned it around beautifully. They're both great fighters.
That battle was intense. Great twists and turns from both ends!
Johnny and Daniel are Ken and Ryu. Unfortunately for the both of them, Terry Silver is Akuma
@@dightonazpeitia4350 actually from what I saw of their fight, I think Johnny and Terry could be about even.
@@kbanghart Lol yeah. You mean how Terry toyed with him the whole time? Practically laughing in his face? Ok bud. XDDD
@@dightonazpeitia4350 well sure, easy to toy with someone when you cheap shot kick in the face. Dazed and ears ringing. And maybe you don't want to admit that Johnny got up, TWICE, and actually caught Terry's kick WHILE getting up. So much for "a man can't stand, he can't fight".
To those saying Johnny countering the pressure point technique, he didn't. He improvised! His hand went limb and he used his legs.
When Daniel used the pressure point technique I thought the battle was concluded, but Johnny really surprised me.
The fact that Johnny can still keep up, after a life of drinking and bad food, while Daniel has better training, kept in better shape, and eats better is amazing.
Easy answer would be genetics. At the same age when they were in high school, he was jacked compared to Daniel. You could argue he’s a better natural athlete.
@@RiceCubeTech nah johnny prefers to train manly like rocky
lol u really think johnny wasn't training after all them years?? he even developed new techniques he used on kreese
@@Rambo20244 he wasn’t…they established that in season 1. He is so rusty when he fights Kyler and the bullies outside of the convenience store (remember how he grabs his groin as if he hadn’t thrown a kick in ages), and after that scene he blows off Miguel stating that he quit karate a long time ago.
@@Michael-cb5nm dude I'm not talking about up until now I'm talking about since he graduated high school
I love that they’re both so evenly matched. Really brings the show together, and I would’ve hated to see one of them lose to be honest
If we're talking by All Valley Tournament Rules which they agreed to fight each other by then Daniel actually won because it's illegal to strike the Head with you Arm like Johnny did while Daniel kicked him in the Head which is legal meaning that Daniel won the Rematch making him 2-0 against Johnny.
@@BumblebeeTuna8 Lol what are you talking about? The all valley rules states that you can punch someone in the face. In the Johnny vs Vidal fight you can see him punch Vidal in the face after taking him down which was scored a point
@@BumblebeeTuna8 Man I see you crying everywhere in the comments about this fight, just shut up and accept that it’s a draw
@@BumblebeeTuna8 A rule like that would make zero sense because kicks are a lot more powerful than punches because legs have much greater muscle strength. So both should either be legal or illegal.
@@BumblebeeTuna8 You do know its 1-0 to Johnny. According to the all valley rules, Johnny won the first fight. Punch to the face/head is allowed, as we see from the semi final when Johnny gets a point for this. His Point wasnt given in the fight against daniel in first film, so thats already a mistake by the referee which shows that Johnny is actually the winner.
I love how every time they fight the show flashbacks or scenes of them against each other in the all valley in karate kid
Words cannot express how much I love this show!
Johnny is really something else. Caught off-guard by a new technique he wasn’t familiar with. Still managed to win the point.
Ye shows he would have easily beaten up Chozen.
@@easygrin1127 nope.
Chozen literally mopped the floor with Daniel.
Johnny had a tough time with Daniel and the best he could do was get a double KO.
Johnny was Always the Better fighter, Daniel only had plot armor
@@ilteschio8244 Johnny being able to immediately "shake off" the pressure point-strikes doesn't count as plot armor? XD
@@Egobyte83 yeah but i mean overall, more explosive, more fluid, since they were teenagers Daniel style Is kinda stiff
OK, this fight wasn't as scary as I feared and was actually close to perfectly written by having them both KO each other and ending in a draw. Very enjoyable stuff.
Reminds me of the double KO in the street fighter video games. I wonder how such a situation would be handled at a tournament? would they do an extra round of fighting or declare it a draw? I am guessing if the score was 1 to 2 they would each get a point and it would not be a tie? that is how the street fighter games work.
@@Zurround
If it was a tournament, they'll probably do a sudden death round
@@quarantinejet2312 it was 2 to 2 but if it was 1 to 2 I am guessing each fighter would gain a point and the 2 would win as it would then be 3 to 2, that is how the street fighter games handle it.
It wasn't even a very serious fight because they were more friends then enemies at this point
As Ally said, “you guys are more alike than you both want to admit”
It's like seeing the recreation of the first KK tournament again:
0:29 Tommy punched Daniel in the same area as in this scene
0:58 the crane kick
1:20 Daniel did the same punch that took a point from Johnny in their first tournament fight
1:57 that takedown took a point from Johnny in the first tournament. So this is pretty much a payback lol
Johnny genuinely was like “ wth man “ when Daniel did that pressure point technique, looked scared for a nanosecond 😂
I like how they look at their kids when they say point as if they betrayed them lol
Lol this is why terry made sure the ref was on their side
pretty much how they felt to their ace students in this whole season
What do you mean? Miguel called Johnny's point and Sam called Daniel's point.
@@1337ofDiscreet1 the fuck? No
@@SexLuthor 2:48 I'm telling you, Miguel called Johnny's point and Sam called Daniel's. Pay attention.

Tis but a scratch
@@556rickk THANK YOU.
Johnny and Daniel are the definition of yin and Yang one is raw power and chaos and one is level headed and coordinated whenever two people like that clash it’s always gonna be a 50/50 who wins. Being calm and defensive will help not make the wrong moves but pure raw power and anger can cut through defense if it’s channeled. I know it’s just a show but these are the facts of life and people debate based on who they like better when they are literally equal but polar opposites
What a crock. You're watching too much fiction.
You should read about Miyamoto Musashi. And read his book "The Book of Five Rings".
@@johnallen9439 you must be fun at parties.
Let people enjoy the show
The way the Daniel and Johnny got into their stances and the flashback to their fight back then, with the same warmup dance Johnny does and the steady stance Daniel has.
Bloody brilliant
The fact that Johnny was able to counter that pressure-point technique demonstrates his defensive development and willingness to accept a style of fighting that is considered different from his. Daniel would later demonstrate this later on, at the tournament, when he instructs Hawk to put his opponent on the defensive

@@vharpz5900 cap
@@vharpz5900 It's Cobra Kai and such a nostalgic show. All of them are amazing!
@@wormydiaz No cap. S4 was a bit messy. Miguel's resolve and development went straight to shit. What's this random shit about his dad who he never met? When did Miguel ever say his dad mattered or that he gave a shit-- not even a picture or a song or something to remember him by, but then this urge to see him hits Miguel. Yea right. Then the spinal thing was shoehorned in for NO REASON and it fucked us out of a Miguel Vs. Robby conclusion. It took Daniel for-goddamn-EVER to get his head out of his own ass, and all the while Terry is the least intimidating guy, playing second-fiddle to Kreese when TERRY is this season's hyped up big-bad! Until the last episode he was just a blow-out.
And then Stingray returns to be a beating post for Terry and a reason to get Kreese sent to prison---as if they couldn't end Kreese with an epic fight that he took too brutally and got imprisoned for. But no. Lets use Stringray because we all missed him.
And then Kreese gets SOFT FOR JOHNNY????? Bruh. You mean this motherfucker has been going hard all two seasons and is just suddenly... feeling soft?
Oh, and Sam, Tori, and Amanda. What a goddamn drag. JUST COMMUNICATE. ORGANIZE A CONVERSATION INSTEAD OF LEAVING IT TO THE TWO TROUBLED GIRLS WHO TRIED TO KILL EACH OTHER TO WORK IT OUT. Like what?!
Remember Kenny? Yea, him and Anthony's thing just sorta... ended? I guess Kenny became a Cobra Kai, got his ass handed to him and that was it. He was supposed to fill in Robby's shoes as the troubles newby but ended up becoming backrow cannon-fodder to his fists.
And Devon Lee. Lol. They really dedicated an episode to feminism and women empowerment.
The season had strong points but it is the weakest of the four seasons. Easily.
Fighting each other like that looked just like when they where kids
I was laughing so hard when Johnny said:"go to another angle"🤣🤣🤣
I love how the fight visually shows what they lack that the other has, Johnny is too aggressive and impatient and Daniel is too passive and reactive, and that's with Daniel now knowing an offensive technique which Johnny powered through like a champ.
Daniel is still not comfortable going full offensive mode. He’s not a complete master of the technique he only spent a few days with Chozen at most. But next season I am sure he will learn the full scope of what Miyagi do can do.
@@elizabethfigueroa6159 I think now Daniel is learning offense but is still too immature. As Chozen said, "maybe he thought you were not ready or unable." Daniel's personality can't handle using offense. Chozen taught him an offensive technique move to use only on "enemies that insist on war" and without hesitation, Daniel uses it on an ally.
@@conorwellman8592 Daniel has always been this way. He settled for defense but he was always wanting to learn offense. KK3, he wanted to learn how to sweep which is more offense then defense.
@@elizabethfigueroa6159 I have always wondered if Miyagi kept the deadly side of Miyagi do from Daniel because he thought he was not capable of handling such dangerous knowledge or if he died before he got to that point in Daniel's training.

I wonder how terry silver will react to this. I first thought chizen could easily end silver with the pressure point technique. But to come to think of it, johnny was able to counter it from Larusso. Johnny then got his ass handed to him by silver.
Chozen would still have a really tough fight against Silver
@@farhadniaz732
It’s not as simple as “A beats B so A easily beats C”. There’s more depth to it. Chozen would NOT have an easy fight against Silver.
Love the outcome. I wanted Johnny, but this IS the best outcome for the show. A cheese-ball show with extra cheese and I love it...truly. This is as close to the same purity that the '80's gave us. I hope they don't ruin it.
If this series had been done 20 or 15 years ago, when Ralph Macchio and William Zabka were younger and more athletic, it would have been fantastic. Too bad they waited so long to make this beautiful series. The fight between Johnny and Daniel with the same sequences and moves as the final 30 years ago except for the impossible ending of the tie is a brilliant idea!
it wouldn’t be the same since none of the characters such as the kids would be alive and there the ones that really make the show shine not to mention that it wouldn’t make sense story wise since they would both be way to young for the sake of the plot
It wasn't their decision though, the writers pitched this idea to both of them.
This whole scene shows that Johnny is actually more balanced internally. Also: he’s an absolute badass for trivializing the pressure point technique.
Daniel being so cocky in this season
True but I do wonder how much of it was due to the fact that he witnessed it being used on Kreese in Season 3? I don't know if he saw it or not but if he did that might explain how Johnny was able to quickly counter before Daniel had the chance to hit the leg
Or maybe Daniel didn't do it with full force, he just used it to make Johnny numb and get the point. That's why Johnny still can use his hand again like it was nothing.
@@red23rd also true as he wasn't fighting for his life, unlike when fighting Kreese.
Either way it was probably the best and most perfect way to end that fight plus let's be honest was really funny
Then he took that L to Terry Silver XD
When Johnny countered the pressure point technique with a scissor kick, I lost it bruh, that was so badass 🤣
Me too I like it a lot
Love how they both knock each other down 😅
There was so much suspense in this scene 💀 My hands started shaking and sweating and my foot wouldn’t stop bouncing
Not surprised that Johnny could counter the pressure points technique. He was training his students to fight one-handed.
Truue I forgot about that
That was after this fight, he wanted to make sure his students could counter having a limb numbed up in the tournament
Plus, he probably witnessed Daniel using that same technique against Kreese, so it's no surprise that he countered it.
@@daguroswaldson257 Ele foi esperto, se o braço ficou paralisado ele sabia q o Daniel iris vir pra cima logo utilizou as pernas para neutraliza-lo e contra golpeou... Ambos estão exatamente no mesmo nível

Best shi# in the whole season 4
Underrated moment in the fight: Daniel used the crane kick and won the point efficiently and fairly this time.
That's true as it wasn't an 'illegal' move due to the lower-striking area of the chest.
He did really. A quick version of it too. Just noticed it as making this comment.
¿"this time"?
Tbf, Johnny went with his head first in the original movie.
Man I love this fight and I love their rivalry. While Johnny is aggressive and his style is badass and flashy and uses a street fight guard, Larusso style is more compact, doesn't make unnecessary movements and has great defense.
Chozen: "Daniel-san, how dare you dishonor my theme!"
Daniel:……eugh- he did it *point silver*
You forgot to say HONOR! 😂😂😂😂😂
Lmaooo
Even with the pressure points, Johnny still gained that point
Johnny got an amazing counter take down with that knee kick Daniel was doing. Johnny is a great fighter but Daniel has reaction time like a beast
The reason the move did not work is because the move is used for when the enemy insists war. The problem is Daniel is the one unbalanced here due to his ptsd from terry silver and his is the one insisting on war making himself his worst enemy
He didn’t finish it and Johnny struck first when he realized what happened. He also saw it before when he fought Kreese
@@longneckedcurriedpinocchio7483 Great observation

he was afraid and lets be honest punk out johnny is difficult as hell
At least he countered it.
@@epcotman32 johnny make something that daniel and kreese didnt HE USED HIS FEAR to his favor because unlike daniel and kreese you can see that when they received the presure points they were afraid for the strike and attacked agressively by instinct because they were "desperate" by other hand, johnny was afraid thats obvious by seeing his face but he backed down a little to make a counter move he didnt let his fear taking control
@@guzmanfel He was not afraid.
@@kingroaster8608 a little buddy,paid attention to his eyes when he receive the pressure point strike, his expression showed a little of fear, he cant lie in that dude
Two amazing things I saw.
1. How Daniel setup Johnny to get his first point.
2. Johnny scored point 2 after the pressure point technique by Daniel. Awesome scene.
This scene is like the sequel, played by Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan
I adore how these two eventually just become American Goku and Vegeta.
This was further proof why their fighting Styles needed to be combined in order to form a perfect balance of combat technique that Miguel and Sam both realize they needed and fully embraced for themselves, they prove to each other by simply knocking themselves out and reaching a draw that they were very much a match in every way hence why I was so glad when they finally put aside their differences and rejoin forces at the end during the all Valley tournament!💯😉👍
Don't worry, robbie will take care both of them
I wish they weren't so stupid this season and they had realized that!
@@fry4guy421 more like they should have realized it sooner rather than during the tournament, I'm most definitely sure that if they had realized that during their rematch after reaching a draw the outcome would have been vastly different!
So next season are they gonna train each other more and Teach each other more of their styles and moves techniques
@@kidfury3546 technically they are not allowed to teach anymore because they lost the tournament against cobra kai, that was the deal they made with Kreese, so I'm not sure.. Johnny went after Miguel so he's definitely out. I think that in the next season Kenny is going to bully Anthony and as he seeks Daniel's help, maybe Sam will teach him the basics to defend himself, probably we'll see Anthony's redemption arc and probably Kenny's descent into cobra kai's aggressive mentality
Johnny was the real MVP, he took that pressure point technique, and countered it, Johnny is a beast.
He saw him use it against kreese lol so maybe that’s why
@@twongolaxp4402 No he didnt
@@twongolaxp4402 no he didn't saw it
Have to say this series is beyond good loved the scene where when they started to fight they showed the Old school scene and nowadays scene same stance and same preparation before the first round started also loved it when Daniel wanted to win his 3rd point with pressure technique yet Johny countered it
Cant wait for season 5...
I love how jhonny countered the pressure point move🤩
Even with the Pressure point Daniel used on Johnny, he is still evenly matched with him
He just learned it, not mastered it like Chozen
Chozen is Grandmaster level
Daniel is only Master level
Cobra Kai is like a live action anime at this point
No one lost nor won, it was just a tie.
@@bojakai2102
Worked on Kreese though so he must be good enough at it, Johnny is just hella tough
Clearly Daniel didn’t do the whole pressure point he stopped in the left arm if he truly wanted to beat Johnny he would of hit both of his arms and legs and shoulders and got the easy point but he wanted to fight clean
@@bojakai2102 it is
I almost had a heart attack watching this scene😂. My adrenaline was beyond the clouds. From the fact its been 35 years since they stood in that same stance to face each other, (real life and on film), the call backs ,to Daniel using the technique Chozen taught him, Miguel wanting Johnny to win and Sam wanting Her Dad to win , me not wanting either one of them to lose, just so much suspense crammed all together in that one scene. Genius. 🥋
I was so scared too i almost didnt wanna watch it
Dude I lost it when they both just fell
I love how Daniel got cocky after seeing Johnnie's reaction just to get schooled with a counter that he didn't have the brains to come up with
Zabka could still do that spinning heel kick, that’s pretty impressive
Wait so this was all real stunts?!
@@LazyPirate8 yes
@@its_Criminal1 no
@@LazyPirate8 nah slow it down, they got stunt doubles.
@@mercy6549 yeah but they do some of the stunts too it looks kinda slow but hey its not bad for 50-60 year old guys
The best frienemies in cinema history.
The move that daniel used when johnny said wth man is very dangerous and almost killed kreese. But the fact that johnny was able to counter and get a point after that was amazing:)
I got chills when Daniel started doing Chozen’s moves as the music kicked in…
No you didn’t
@@omensoffate yes he did
@@omensoffate What kronic said
pressure points used
Daniel - Reacts in absolute confusion and fear
Kreese - Similar confusion and a hint of fear
Johnny - What the hell man?
he looked offended more than hurt
Jhonny its the man for a reason
Hence why Johnny said if he had anymore dirty tricks
He disabled his arm. That's pretty serious no telling if he would be the same after it wears off
I’m sure Johnny being younger than Kreese helped as well
@@dannyrimes3958 or not being an idiot and swing instantly 🤣
Loved this, they were truly each others equal
Johnny overcoming Daniel’s pressure point technique is such a perfect representation of the message of this show.
In the original Karate Kid film, Miyagi’s philosophy and lessons were always portrayed as the morally superior and the correct way to live life, while Cobra Kai’s lessons were shown as the indisputable wrong and corrupt path to take. This was symbolized in how Daniel ultimately defeated Johnny using the Miyagi fighting style, which demonstrated that Miyagi’s outlook was the better option.
But Cobra Kai is different in that despite both Johnny and Daniel having completely different outlooks on life and what’s best for their students, neither one is proven as better than the other. Despite all the fights and feuds that happen throughout this series, they both ultimately did have a positive effect on their students, all while sticking to their own beliefs. Johnny specifically, whose way of teaching could easily have been portrayed as evil and wrong, is proven to have taught his kids how to be brave, take risks, and confront their problems.
So him successfully countering Daniel’s pressure point move, a move he literally learned during a spiritual journey to Japan and would have been the move that won this fight normally, just by sticking to his own fighting style proves that both of their outlooks on life and fighting are considered equal, despite how much they hate each other.
"I'm not the one who fights dirty" - Daniel LaRusso, moments after fighting dirty.
How was it dirty though?
@@jp3813 It wasn't. Everytime Johnny is being confronted with a technique he doesn't know, he calls it dirty. Did the same after the Crane Kick. The pressure point was not against any rules at all.
@@abonny well Johnny won the tournament if you really look carefully cuz Johnny punched him in the face and it was no point plus he already had two so yea.
Lapusso definitly fights dirty l._.l johnny deserves a win not a draw!
@@jp3813 how was it dirty? It paralyzes the opponent, how isn't that dirty?
I loved Jhonny training in the sea, striking the waves in the ocean. Impossible not to love him.
Imagine hating this guy
@@cadenbagasao9344 i know
imagine Bruce Lee watching him train, "water, don't hit back" 🤣
Pretty sure that’s a callback to when Daniel was training in the karate kid part 1 to balance himself
@@cadenbagasao9344 Daniel used to (I think he kinda still does).
I’m more amazed at a 57 year old and 60 year old doing this choreo and not a single stunt man was used. I think maybe 1 was used for LaRusso during the scissor kick. But that was all Johnny. Usually these types of fights are filled with stunt men and choppy cut up shaky angles so you can’t tell. But this was all the actors. 👏
Holy shit. Not only are those ages spot on, but after looking them up, I never knew that Ralph was the older one!
They used stunt doubles at the very last hit you can see Daniel got swapped out for a younger dude who’s flexible enough to kick that high
Otherwise though they did a great job regardless
@@GoDomonero Yeah just as I said. LaRusso clearly had the moments where a stunt double was used more but makes sense considering he’s much older then Johnny (irl).
“I’m not the one who fights dirty”
From what I saw in this match, Daniel pulled more tricks than Johnny here lmao
Yeah but Johnny did hurl him into the post to show him a few moves of his own. :D
The fact that Johny was able to beat off presure Point shows who good he really is
Daniel uses pressure points
Johnny: fine I'll just use my legs
Kreese: *The Buffoon Is Flummoxed*
Shows how strong his plot armour is
@@mrshadow4007 nice darkest dungeon reference
@@kaineturner7369 You could say it was plot armour but you could also say it wasn't. Most likely plot armour since Johnny had never seen the pressure points in action yet.
@@person12321 at least not onscreen. i never see the show but to say plot armor just because he never seen it onscreen is weak.
Sensei lawrence, the only one able to counter the attack on the pressure points. A round of applause for Jhonny.
Johnny
this is great, that's what it's like when adults can't forgive mistakes from their youth, so they become worse than children
even with Daniels new pressure point trick he ties with Johnny
Because this fight is not to determine who is better but who is right.
@@ezanamelekot6796 Johnny it's a better fighter especially in feats.
Chozen: If an enemy insists on war, you take away their ability to wage it.
*Chozen sees this scene*
Chozen: Well. Um. It doesn't work all the time.
Because Jhonny isn't Daniel's enemy
@@speedyking288 Good point.
@@Steveman27 And because Chozen would and could inflict it on the other 3 limbs.
@@sixkicksfightertricks949 I suppose Daniel could've done the same, but then remembered it's a competition and might not have wanted to do it in front of everyone there.
@@Steveman27 Maybe. But Chozen did it on Daniel's arms and one of his legs when it was just sparring. It not fatal if it's not used on the throat.
Pressure points technique in a points scoring match? You can see why Miyagi never taught him that.
Exactly my thought, this wasn't a life threatening situation. He is more Cobra Kai material than he wants to admit.
Yep because Miyagi knew that daniel is not wise enough to use that technique properly he's still a hot head.
This was a fight for who got exclusive teaching rights, not a petty dispute. Daniel genuinely believes here that the kids are in danger from Terry if they continue learning Eagle-Fang karate. Right or wrong, his choice to use this technique shows us how scared he is and how serious he is taking this. And we know how dangerous Silver is. So, life and death, maybe not, but to Daniel it’s the kid’s safety on the line. That’s worth consideration.
@@hannahwhite367 he was also trying to show that miyagi do is better than eagle fang.
To be fair at least he didn't used the full technic and just paralyzed one arm, I think that's gonna be a problem in next seasons, Daniel is going to start abusing the new technics and eventually is going to turn Cobra Kai without knowing it
JOHNNY not only countered the pressure point technique, but also scored a point against it. really impressive.
God damn this show. I just stopped by to view one small clip, and I'm getting all choked up again. I love this series so much. Just tugs at the old heart strings it does.
I think we’re going to see the redemption of Kreese honestly. What happened to him at the end of the season was just uncalled for.
I think he will join Johnny
@@slim..reaper Why would Johnny let Kreese join him again after he betrayed Johnny and took over cobra kai? just doesn’t seem realistic
I agree, but it will likely be more like how Darth Vader redeemed hinself.
It wasn't uncalled for. Terry just showed Kreese what a real snake is like.
agreed... they even teased some redemption in him as he stopped Silver from attacking Johnny more in the old dojo, he didn't go mad when Robby lost to Hawk and he even encouraged Tory to fight fair when she looked to him for guidance instead of telling her to "sweep the leg" like he done in KK1. He has PTSD and mental health issues from his childhood, his mum's death & his childhood sweethearts death and then the war and his adulthood life post Vietnam that he has never truly healed from, as he is from that generation where it isn't "manly" to seek help & therapy and men dont cry to talk about their feelings.. I hope they explore this more in S5 and in his redemption arc. He clearly cares about other broken people from disadvantaged backgrounds (ie Johnny, Robby & Tory - he even sticks up for Tory on numerous occasions like with her landlord and amanda and although he tries to mask it as wanting the best fighters in CK I think deep down he uses that as an excuse to help people like her) and he probably would be a great mentor to kids like them if he just channeled his energy better.
