I actually think that this scene doesnt go that deep for people that havent been bullied,but for us who have been its one of the most relatable things.If you were a victim of bullying you will have a dark side no matter what its like a yin yang thing
I got my vengeance in a different way. My bully was a football player Man child. He never beat me up or anything but talked a lot of shit since I was a new kid. What he didn’t know was that I played basketball all my life and I embarrassed him in front of his friends. They posted it on IG back when it first came out. His ass was mine that day and he never bothered me again.
There’s countless times I’ve wanted kick the living crap out of bullies or have them suffer the same fate innocent victims went through but I know I would just end up as worse as the Bully by being more violent, while I haven’t been bullied the way other people have I can see the pain they went or go through irl and watching it just makes you feel their anger
I love what Hawk told Kyler at gym fight the season 5 finale, he was all "You're still pulling the bully act when all the people you bullied have kicked your ass now" lol
This scene gave me so much joy. I don't like Kreese, but seeing Hawk volunteer to fight and then Kreese telling him to forget the flags was pure awesomeness. Spitting on him at the end was icing on the cake.
Jacob Bertrand is such a great actor. He brings such raw energy to the table when he's playing Hawk, yet he's also capable of emotional depth when he's being Eli. Probably my favourite character in the show.
Yeah, he doesn’t get enough credit. I know he takes things too far. But they’re also is a lot of things that could be learned from him. In fact, the show proves time and time again that showing mercy is what can get you in trouble. So goes fighting, so goes life.
@@blacjackdaniels200 I have a couple super heavyweight smoker fights under my belt. I usually got hurt when trying to take it easy on the lighter guys in training. Aligns with your comment.
@@Zellieth case in point. It’s because it’s not natural for us. We are animals in the end of the day we are fighting, we go into survival mode. It’s unnatural to let up at that point. As Keeese says, finish him.! That’s what we are designed to do. Of course, societal norms have been implemented and we use fighting as a means of sports or entertainment, but the person fighting is still in a battle. It’s not to say that we would intentionally hurt others or not help others. Just look at Mike Tyson. He would absolutely pummel the guy… in his own words if he doesn’t kill him, it doesn’t count. He’s in touch with his side. But AFTER the fight was over he DID finish the opponent, he would immediately run up to the person to try to lift them up. But not until after he destroyed them. He never let the whole mercy thing interfere with his work. Now, of course, this is just my perspective, but this is how I see it. The body and our instincts do not know that we are just doing it for sport. So when you mess with your chemistry like that, my backing off and showing mercy, blah blah blah, things can go wrong. Very wrong. It’s not just fighting. It just really in life in general. We all have an instinct to kill, to win, to survive, and we have to do that by taking out the next guy. It’s just the way it is.
@@blacjackdaniels200 kreese is sometimes kind of right, but treating every day life like its a constant vietnam war zone is gona end in disaster. its all about knowing when to show mercy, and when not to. everything that went wrong for anyone in this show was about making the wrong choice. miguel shouldnt have shown mercy that time on the stairs, but going all out non stop will make you end up like kwon.
Totally. I never got revenge on my bullies. I wish I did. However, with perspective I realize that it was their parents fault for the poor education taught, and the profesors fault for allowing that to happen in class
@@jessepinkmanWhite no it was your parents fault who never gave you the skills to defend yourself from bullies or taught you how and when. Their parents were never responsible for you, your parents were.
Think the endless barrage while the big guy was down was what shook her. I'm no expert on fighting, but I think you need either anger towards the target or good at letting go to just hammer on someone like that. It took me losing it like Hawk to even fight a bully back in 4th grade and that was just to hit back, not overwhelm him as Hawk did. I think I still took the bulk of the hits, but it was the fact I lost control so much I just did not stay down that made the bully back off afterward.
This scene is not only really good because you can see and feel Hawk's anger while turning his bully into minced meat, but it's also really good because it quite effectively shows you what bullying creates.
i never saw this series, mostly i don´t be on the platforms these serie is runing or were runing but i thing hawk is one of the characters i would relate the most and i am curious about his ways in the show. with kreese (hope i write this right) in the game i have the feeling that hawk could potentionaly go on the wrong path, begining to be a bully himself. being bullied my self multiple times i know that feeling and how tempting it is to deliver this to others when there is one inch of power inside of your grasp. without knowing how his way in the show ill be from that point on i hope he will be a great character. a kind of character what know what it is like to suffer to bullies and used his expierience to prevent something like that for others and teach others.
This honestly felt like the moment Kratos got his hands of Zeus. Every moment of pent up rage and aggression just let loose and only stopping once he had enough.
Everything about this scene was great, especially if one has been bullied before. From Kreese giving the go-ahead, nodding to the other student "don't worry about the point flags", the bully seeing the tats & realizing what he's in for, the sheer rage in Hawk's beatdown of the bully, the class's reaction, Kreese not even getting a chance to fully say "finish him", and finally the "call me lip one more time" stare down of the other bully. All perfect. If one has been bullied before, you felt this scene to your core.
As a person whos been bullied for a long time as well and a person who does karate, it felt SO GOOD to see someone just like me do the thing i've always wanted to do and it was awesome to watch him finally become his own person by the end of season 4. loved this show and hawk for all four good seasons.
I kind of liked the fact that it wasn't Kyler that Hawk destroyed. It was his lackey/muscle. Basically, Hawk wanted Kyler to see what he could do to him if he uttered one more insult in his direction. Kyler couldn't even look him in the eye after that. Hawk had his vengeance that day. Delicious revenge. With very little dialog, a lot of storytelling happened.
Same in the first season when Miguel whooped their asses. Anytime Kyler saw Miguel, he just turned and walked the other way; you could see the fear in him
@@stigtuneback1966 it is self defence, but he put all in one fight, so that his opponent doesnt have to suffer for months if they tried to attack him. but now they wont
@powerstar8862 the real world, where fear = you respect someone's ability to kick your ass and don't try them. Hawk not only got revenge on his bully, but he went further and squashed him in front of a crowd and became the bully himself. That is the time tested golden rule for how to deal with male bullies.
@@powerstar8862 He didnt't mean rePect as in Eli respects his bullies. His show of strengh makes his bullies respect said strengh. Bullies take on those they think are weaker. So fighting back and winning earned Eli the reapect of Kyler and goons in that moment. Seeing he can in fact beat them at an inch of their life. Hence the bully was real quiet avoiding eyecontact.
@@naveeshaabhishek9652 I think that’s the whole point of his character: to show how quickly you can change when you’re on cobra kai. He’s also there for Robby to realize cobra kai is bad and so he sees that he failed someone just like Johnny did
Matches are about scoring body shot. You could get lucky 3 times and win. If it was about actually killing your opponent or knocking them out, hawk wins
Them aggressive Palm strakes. Kreese was able to get out the words "Finish Him" before Eli left the big man so bloody on the floor that he had Tori terrified of him, and Kyler unable to look him in the eyes.

I loved how Eli put fear in his bullies heart, he looked at him as if he was saying, see your friend on the floor? That's your ass if you ever cross me again
Funny how Kyler forgot about how Eli was top dog in Cobra Kai before Robbie came in and still tried to provoke him in the S4 tournament just because they essentially sucker punched him and got rid of his mohawk
@@marcusj17I had the very same thought in my mind. He somehow thought that just because Eli left Cobra Kai and joined another dojo, he became “some kind of pussy”, and tried to bully him again.
One lesson that does apply from Cobra Kai is this: If a bully confronts you, that bully is your enemy. A bully has to learn from lack of mercy. If they don’t, they become without value and eventually die with little to no mourn.
Hawk deserved his vengeance. They bullied him too long and thought there would never be consequences. I just hope he can temper his rage and join Johnny in the REAL Cobra Kai
I like how in the end when he was wailing on him he wasn’t even hitting him correctly with the knuckles, but rather the finger knuckle like an ape smashing on something, anyone who’s ever been bullied knows the rage, frustration, and pent up anger Hawk had within him
But he never returns after that scene I'm pretty sure he's dead especially after the old dude says pick him up off my floor, probably meaning dispose of his body
@BearShark-ef9tm I think its more he just got ditched, cause you see kyler starts hanging out with the cobras after this episode instead of his old crew from season 1
Jacob is the best of the young actors in the show, by a long shot. His insane charisma and level of expressiveness is the reason Hawk is the favorite character of many people
An equal would be when Mike was about to kill Walt, but then Walt outwitted him and told him "Your boss is gonna need me", and Mike says "Why is that?" while cocking his gun, then Walt recites Gale's address and Mike realizes how he has just been completely outwitted, then Walt responds "Yeeeeeeahhh". That was so satisfying.
Kreese couldn't even finish saying "finish him" before Eli started his ground and pound game on his face. I like this little tidbit here that further encapsulates Hawk's anguish. :D
Remember, Kreese was bullied too…he heard what Hawk wanted in his voice, and Kreese happily obliged. That look on Kreese’s face was more than mere satisfaction… it was catharsis living vicariously through Hawk
At 2:17 I like how hawk's hair perfectly aligns with the wall's colors indicating the pure brutality cobra kai can bring to people like Eli. This was that evilness in cobra kai taking the form of hawk.
I like how Tubbo was in the middle of an insult, but it died in the wind the MOMENT he saw the Hawk tattoo. I think on some level, he realized he was about to get his shit pushed in.
I feel like Tori has a "normal" and "berserk" state for lack of a better term, albeit not literally. She has terrible self control at this point in the show which causes her to get hyper violent in the heat of the action. She's always thuggish, personality-wise, but the extrene violence comes out when her berserker behavior does. But here she was just a bystander; not involved in the slightest. She's in her "normal" state. She doesn't realize it, but she's basically seeing what she's like in the heat of the moment.
@@heavydonkeykong5190I’d argue hawk was worse than anyone in the show, he pretty much almost killed brucks, tori my have scar’s sams arm but bruck had to get new teeth
Yo imagine if moon came to see hawk after they broke up and she knew he was in corba kai and then she walked in and she see hawk beating bruckus that's would actually be crazy
I love this scene so incredibly much. Especially the first fight. Notice how the Asian kid is trained in Greco-Roman style fighting (western Europe) and he's fighting a white kid who's obviously trained in Karate (east Asia). That fight perfectly represents Yin and Yang and it's just beautiful. The writers really knew what they were doing.
There was something really deep about Hawk beating Brucks instead of Kyler here- Kyler is the ringleader who wants to take charge. Eli was his target, and in Kyler's arrogance, he assumed Eli would always be the same scared kid that he'd bully. But now that Eli has become Hawk, he's not afraid of Kyler and his friends anymore. They made fun of him again which brought out Eli's insecurity for a moment, but then Hawk reemerged and got his revenge by destroying Brucks, and then the glare at Kyler that says "cross me and you're next." To me, that's far better revenge than if Hawk fought Kyler here.
I love how Kyler's earlier easy victory gave Brucks quite a bit of over-confidence here. That was some nice foreshadowing in the story-telling. The writers understood that they were 'splitting the difference' in regards to the audience. Allowing 1 bully to overwhelm his opponent whilst later allowing the other bully to be overwhelmed. It added to the tension later on in the story. Hawk never felt like he was a part of Kreese's Cobra Kai even though he was absolutely loyal to Johnny earlier. This scene ultimately set him up for his 'turn' against Cobra Kai later.
One of the most satisfying scenes. Also, is it just me or does Kyler have one of the most puchable faces ever?! Great casting for that role. Nailed the douchey bully look 100% lol
Irony is, I bet the actor who plays Kyler is a really nice guy. They seem to be the best at playing douchbags, because they're asked to be everything they hate in real life.
I can definitely relate to Hawk I've been bullied growing up this scene brings tears to my eyes every time because every punch Hawk threw after dude was down was pure emotional pain
I almost feel sorry for the guy….almost. The blood on Hawks hands and that final sign of disrespect when he spit on him. This scene gives serious Negan vibes from TWD
Me too. I was also bullied (but not really beaten up) and wished for a vengeance like hawk. But nowadays i hope i would stop once the Former bully is down and "show mercy" - guess i am more the miyagi-do guy
“There were consequences to me seeing red. Seeing red was a bad thing then. But see, now nobody's suing anybody, nobody's getting fired. Hell, nobody's keeping score.

@@browhat9349 I think the title of the episode is Claimers. It’s the episode where Rick bites Joe’s (Leader of the Claimers) throat out, then guts the other Claimer for trying to rape Carl. It’s also the episode where Rick and Daryl call each other “brother”
This scene really speaks to the scrawny, bullied teenager I used to be. My HS valued the jocks above any other students and would turn a blind eye to all the awful things the football players did to the quiet kids. It's the reason I dropped out the day I turned 18 and got my GED.
try being the smart kid who also played baseball and football. I started taking Karate after Karate Kid came out, ( original ) after my first fight with the running back ( only 3 months into karate ) I started getting respect. Just fighting back and not taking it meant more than winning to me. ( I also won the fight ) I don't enjoy fighting, my step dad hit me too often for little things, but I respect myself much more now as an adult because I stood up for myself as a teen. I am sorry you were bullied. It shouldn't happen to anyone child or adult.
@@batsonelectronics Damn , It took me years of planning and events I orchestrated to fix the school's bullying and sexual harassment problem while trying hard to play the role of the school weak ass while only a few people didnt buy into because I was the most violent kid of them all not even letting teachers off easy who picked on kids or molested them . But 8 years of hard work made the school a safer place and suicide free . Now its just a regular boring old government school in a 3rd world country .
Thats the hardest part of being the bullied person to then becoming a fighter. Keeping that rage in check, sometimes you can feel every fibre of your being wanting to respond with violence but its not the way.
@@kingofdeath9012 here he is ruled by his emotions, here he gave in to his rage when he could have made his point. The only time violence of this manner is reasonable is when its life and death
I'm so glad Hawk my favorite character switched sides finally but I kinda wish he stayed long enough for Terry Silver to arrive and turn Hawk into a unstable beast because after that no amount of defense could stop him that be so cool
Yeah but I also don't want his OG friends to hate him for turning into a monster. Doesn't matter what dojo he's at, he clearly has the skill to stay in the top 5 at minimum
you probably can, just dont think you can be as small as this hawk dude and destroy the fat bully as easy as he did, most of the time the bigger guys be tanky as heck
Gotta love the Grim Reaper tattoo. Fitting for this scene; justice is served. Ooooo, the look he gave Kyler, and his reaction... PRICELESS !!! Way to go Hawk !!!
Kreese may not be the greatest of men, but the way he let Hawk go after his bully was fitting and very satisfying. He understood what was happening and just let him go. Sadly even this wasn't enough for Kyler to learn his lesson.
That scene was very telling how much rage Hawk had built up in him from being picked on and bullied. His tormentors had no clue what he had become and that was a warning beating aimed at Kyler. Hawk was a good kid, but he just got lost in the monster he became and the good kid he was finally came shining through. He was the standout character about redemption in this show.
If you have been a victim of bullying, you know how satisfying this scene is. I was bullied mercilessly when I was young for being overweight and a nerd. I switched schools in 8th grade and started reinventing myself by working out. By the time my Junior year started I was co-captain of the wrestling team, had lost all the weight and was very muscular. One of my old bullies transferred to my school Junior year, but didn't recognize me, even though we had a class together, until one day it hits him that I had the same name as that "fat kid" he once knew and asked me if I went to the former middle school. I said I did and he immediately started ribbing on me in the boy's locker room in front of football players for being a wrestler. So I challenged him to a match, which surprised him, but he couldn't back down. I picked him up and slammed him so hard that his nose bled and was fully embarrassed afterwards, especially since now the football players were ragging on him. He tried to be my friend after that and was always nice to me after that....but I wouldn't give him the time of day for making my life miserable before. Damn did it feel good though owning him and seeing this scene always reminds me of that moment in my life.
The flash of the grim reaper tattoo, the hawk screech, the music, the flashbacks, the way kreese told the ref to 'not ref', the way he finished him and some before he was even told to, the way he stared down kyler after putting the most brutal and ferocious beatdown anyone in the miyagiverse has ever received. It perfectly shows hawk at his most unstoppable, when he has something to prove. And what happened at the tournament, he didnt just come to win, he came to prove he wasn't a sidekick, he's second to none. Hawk is an extremely deep character and like we saw he had nothing to prove when he thought kenny, and i think kenny beating hawk was the series passing the torch, Kenny was now the one with something to prove, Kenny ISN'T robbie, Kenny is Hawk.
We don't see his face after Kreese says "finish him" so the idea of how badly beaten and bloody his face looks after the assault by Hawk is left entirely to our imagination. That's absolutely brilliant directing.
anyone who has been in hawks shoes can truly understand how deep this scene goes!
I actually think that this scene doesnt go that deep for people that havent been bullied,but for us who have been its one of the most relatable things.If you were a victim of bullying you will have a dark side no matter what its like a yin yang thing

Yes but that muscle kid died from his injuries. The next season is the court case.
@@solame4983😂😂😂😂
The fact that Kreese asked the guy to put away the flags, as he knew this match isn't about points>>
as someone who was bullied to the point of being suicidal, this scene is so fucking satisfying you can't imagine
Me too. Terrifying yet amazing. Jacob Bertrand nailed the scene, and it's ironic how one of my favorite actors shares the same first name as me.
I was bullying since my first years at school, i can understand this satisfaction bro. It s impossible to forget it.
well , thats not what self defence is aboute , .
@@stigtuneback1966 it is self defence, but he put all in one fight, so that his opponent doesnt have to suffer for months if they tried to attack him. but now they wont
Very glad to see you here making this post! Hope life continues to improve!
The way Hawk asks for permission from Kreese to destroy the guy and the way Kreese nods like "he has it coming" is beautiful
This part shows how much anger hawk has inside of him because of kyler and what bullying can create…respect
What world do you live in that bullying creates respect?🤣
@powerstar8862 the real world, where fear = you respect someone's ability to kick your ass and don't try them. Hawk not only got revenge on his bully, but he went further and squashed him in front of a crowd and became the bully himself.
That is the time tested golden rule for how to deal with male bullies.
@@powerstar8862 It's an Ellipsis, just an odd use of one. I think he meant that as a separate thought, maybe to Hawk or the show.
@@powerstar8862 He didnt't mean rePect as in Eli respects his bullies.
His show of strengh makes his bullies respect said strengh. Bullies take on those they think are weaker. So fighting back and winning earned Eli the reapect of Kyler and goons in that moment. Seeing he can in fact beat them at an inch of their life.
Hence the bully was real quiet avoiding eyecontact.
@@powerstar8862 I think he meant he has respect for Hawk.
Loved it when Bigboy saw Hawk's tattoo. He was like, wtf! Ok, maybe this wasn't the best idea
Thought he was more like
"Oh shiiiii this man went through a development"
Love the fact kreese didn't say "fight" to start the match. Hawk just went straight to business.
Kreese couldn't get "Finish Him" out in time either.
Even better how he waved the flagger off.
U know it’s bout the get real when you hear the hawk screech
Yeh
My favorite part
Yeh in season 4 i heard that
@@youngspider2329 cool that’s what ears are for
@@superiorelectric8295 damn really? Didnt know
The writers cannot convince me that Kenny would ever beat hawk, I found that completely ridiculous
Kenny is most annoying character in this series
@@naveeshaabhishek9652 I think that’s the whole point of his character: to show how quickly you can change when you’re on cobra kai. He’s also there for Robby to realize cobra kai is bad and so he sees that he failed someone just like Johnny did
@@gabrielolszyk yeah I can understand that but even hawk was with kreese for sometimes but I never hated hawk but kenny 🙅
Though it looked like Hawk was holding back, and the ref was baught off anyway. If Hawk went all out in no-mercy mode then he would have won.
Matches are about scoring body shot. You could get lucky 3 times and win. If it was about actually killing your opponent or knocking them out, hawk wins
Them aggressive Palm strakes. Kreese was able to get out the words "Finish Him" before Eli left the big man so bloody on the floor that he had Tori terrified of him, and Kyler unable to look him in the eyes.
I like how kreese told the kid to drop the flag he knew as soon as hawk spoke it was personal and he definitely got well deserved revenge

I loved how Eli put fear in his bullies heart, he looked at him as if he was saying, see your friend on the floor? That's your ass if you ever cross me again
Funny how Kyler forgot about how Eli was top dog in Cobra Kai before Robbie came in and still tried to provoke him in the S4 tournament just because they essentially sucker punched him and got rid of his mohawk
@@marcusj17I had the very same thought in my mind. He somehow thought that just because Eli left Cobra Kai and joined another dojo, he became “some kind of pussy”, and tried to bully him again.
One lesson that does apply from Cobra Kai is this: If a bully confronts you, that bully is your enemy. A bully has to learn from lack of mercy. If they don’t, they become without value and eventually die with little to no mourn.
Beyond Scared Straight in a nutshell.
Anyone noticed Kreese did not even finish saying ‘Finish him!’ and Hawk pummelled the bully into a pulp?
Yep
Hawk finished him without hesitation
They couldn't even show that guys face. You can only imagine from how bloody Hawk's knuckles are
@@GothamThotSlayerApprently he lost all his teeth
Bro speed-dialed the fatality before the announcer finished speaking
Hawk deserved his vengeance. They bullied him too long and thought there would never be consequences. I just hope he can temper his rage and join Johnny in the REAL Cobra Kai
Eagle Fang*
And he Is now the champion of the valley and the strongest.
What can I say karma bites you in the ass
This aged well.
Yep
I like how in the end when he was wailing on him he wasn’t even hitting him correctly with the knuckles, but rather the finger knuckle like an ape smashing on something, anyone who’s ever been bullied knows the rage, frustration, and pent up anger Hawk had within him
I thought he was supposed to be elbowing him lol
@@167thSpartan i thought so too but you can see his eldows are just wide he's throwing really wild
You need therapy
@@NewAgeSlaves nah he did elbow a few times then started using his palm
@@167thSpartan He had blood in his knuckles by the end
i've watched this scene so many times and im just now realizing you can hear bruck's subtle cries in pain at the end.
But he never returns after that scene I'm pretty sure he's dead especially after the old dude says pick him up off my floor, probably meaning dispose of his body
@BearShark-ef9tm I think its more he just got ditched, cause you see kyler starts hanging out with the cobras after this episode instead of his old crew from season 1
@@BearShark-ef9tmbro this isn’t a mob show 😂😂😂😂😂 he’s not dead just severely injured.
Thought he was more like coughing up
The fact that kyler avoided eye contact with Hawk because he knew that spar was a direct and aimed warning
Jacob is the best of the young actors in the show, by a long shot. His insane charisma and level of expressiveness is the reason Hawk is the favorite character of many people
Hawk kicks ass
Hawk was my favorite out of the whole series I actually wish they did more with him throughout the series after this.
There never was, nor will be, a more satisfying scene on the television🙏🏼
Jon Snow beating up Ramsay
@@320FLnah
Joffreys death
An equal would be when Mike was about to kill Walt, but then Walt outwitted him and told him "Your boss is gonna need me", and Mike says "Why is that?" while cocking his gun, then Walt recites Gale's address and Mike realizes how he has just been completely outwitted, then Walt responds "Yeeeeeeahhh". That was so satisfying.
@@firstlast1947 🥱
Kreese couldn't even finish saying "finish him" before Eli started his ground and pound game on his face. I like this little tidbit here that further encapsulates Hawk's anguish. :D
Finish hi-
Dude that look hawk gave the bully at the end, basically daring him to say something. Honestly my favorite scene from the entire series
طحت الباطل
2:02 hawk so angry he tried giving the flag to the to the wrong side
Kyler
Just noticed thanks
I was so hype for this spar match I didn't even notice till now lol
Well we could dismiss that because his friend used to be in that exact same sport before Kyler took it.
Lmao thats a bloopper
Remember, Kreese was bullied too…he heard what Hawk wanted in his voice, and Kreese happily obliged. That look on Kreese’s face was more than mere satisfaction… it was catharsis living vicariously through Hawk
He really said “Hawk tuah” on him after that beating 😂😂😂
The look on Kyler's face was PRICELESS.
I love that brutality man...being a badass is like being a boss
that's a really low quality comment to be hearting
@@zoned7609 well it's the internet.....most tough guys you'll ever see...
@@blachloch1 more like never see
3:16 That look. Screams " I am what you made me"
I more so saw it as "Yeah... try me"
At 2:17 I like how hawk's hair perfectly aligns with the wall's colors indicating the pure brutality cobra kai can bring to people like Eli. This was that evilness in cobra kai taking the form of hawk.
YO I NEVER CAUGHT THAT
YOOOO
How in the hell did you notice that? That’s awesome
I like how Tubbo was in the middle of an insult, but it died in the wind the MOMENT he saw the Hawk tattoo. I think on some level, he realized he was about to get his shit pushed in.
Tori: *literally tries to kill sam and pushes hawk to break his best friends arm*
Also tori in this scene: 😱😱
I feel like Tori has a "normal" and "berserk" state for lack of a better term, albeit not literally. She has terrible self control at this point in the show which causes her to get hyper violent in the heat of the action. She's always thuggish, personality-wise, but the extrene violence comes out when her berserker behavior does.
But here she was just a bystander; not involved in the slightest. She's in her "normal" state. She doesn't realize it, but she's basically seeing what she's like in the heat of the moment.
also Tory: calls Demetri a pussy for crying when he got his arm broken
@@heavydonkeykong5190I’d argue hawk was worse than anyone in the show, he pretty much almost killed brucks, tori my have scar’s sams arm but bruck had to get new teeth
@@1Xzssand he broke his friends arm and beat the shit out of Nate and thorough Bert through a window
Hawk was the real main character of Cobra Kai. I love how even when he was bad he still was good.
that look he gives him at the end solidified this as one of the best scenes in cobra kai
Its just like Joker said: "What do you get when you cross a loner and a society that treats him like trash? You get what you fucking deserve."
The fact that hawk literally finished him when Kreese didn't even finish saying it is crazy.
I would have done the same, except for going on for two or three times as long as he did.
Finish hi-
Fatality, Hawk wins, flawless victory
Yo imagine if moon came to see hawk after they broke up and she knew he was in corba kai and then she walked in and she see hawk beating bruckus that's would actually be crazy
@@nickgrmblfx3344 It definitely gave MK vibes from the start lol
Most satisfying part of the whole show in my opinion.
I love this scene so incredibly much. Especially the first fight. Notice how the Asian kid is trained in Greco-Roman style fighting (western Europe) and he's fighting a white kid who's obviously trained in Karate (east Asia). That fight perfectly represents Yin and Yang and it's just beautiful. The writers really knew what they were doing.
There was something really deep about Hawk beating Brucks instead of Kyler here- Kyler is the ringleader who wants to take charge. Eli was his target, and in Kyler's arrogance, he assumed Eli would always be the same scared kid that he'd bully. But now that Eli has become Hawk, he's not afraid of Kyler and his friends anymore. They made fun of him again which brought out Eli's insecurity for a moment, but then Hawk reemerged and got his revenge by destroying Brucks, and then the glare at Kyler that says "cross me and you're next." To me, that's far better revenge than if Hawk fought Kyler here.
I keep saying this to those that wanted Kyler to be getting the beating.
Even better is the fact that he goes on to absolutely ROFLSTOMP Kyler. This scene is about asserting dominance, not gaining revenge.
that staredown and kyler couldnt even look in the face after that pure EMOTIONAL
Hawk won the battle of the constant mind games that the bullies started.
The striking clinic Eli put on in this scene was phenomenal and the hoodie choke was a nice touch
I love the fact that kreese doesn’t even get finish telling hawk to finish him hawk just goes straight in with the punches
Kreese: Why did I bother saying it this time?
He waved down the flag guy before the fight even started. He knew.
nah season 3 hawk was a menace
I love how Kyler's earlier easy victory gave Brucks quite a bit of over-confidence here. That was some nice foreshadowing in the story-telling. The writers understood that they were 'splitting the difference' in regards to the audience. Allowing 1 bully to overwhelm his opponent whilst later allowing the other bully to be overwhelmed. It added to the tension later on in the story. Hawk never felt like he was a part of Kreese's Cobra Kai even though he was absolutely loyal to Johnny earlier. This scene ultimately set him up for his 'turn' against Cobra Kai later.
Yeah, Assface could've taken Brucks cause they are the same heavier body type, then Hawk would've beaten the hell out of Kyler for sure.
big boi: “see if i can fix that lip of yours”
hawk: *takes off shirt*
big boi: why do i hear boss
music
The way Kyler step back from Hawk is so unique!
The fact that they all stood there and didn’t give a shit about the kid 😂
One of the most satisfying scenes. Also, is it just me or does Kyler have one of the most puchable faces ever?! Great casting for that role. Nailed the douchey bully look 100% lol
Ngl, every asian guy I've seen and met that looks like Kyler is always some arrogant douchebag, especially here in the states lol
Irony is, I bet the actor who plays Kyler is a really nice guy. They seem to be the best at playing douchbags, because they're asked to be everything they hate in real life.
2:52 "Finish hi-..." the single most Cobra Kai moment ever
I can definitely relate to Hawk I've been bullied growing up this scene brings tears to my eyes every time because every punch Hawk threw after dude was down was pure emotional pain
Funny enough this was the scene that put brucks on the right track in life lol

without Hawk he never would've found out he could be MIT-material
Hawks development can truly be a show of its own
I almost feel sorry for the guy….almost. The blood on Hawks hands and that final sign of disrespect when he spit on him. This scene gives serious Negan vibes from TWD
Me too. I was also bullied (but not really beaten up) and wished for a vengeance like hawk. But nowadays i hope i would stop once the Former bully is down and "show mercy" - guess i am more the miyagi-do guy
Lol TWD fan? Favorite episode?
“There were consequences to me seeing red. Seeing red was a bad thing then. But see, now nobody's suing anybody, nobody's getting fired. Hell, nobody's keeping score. Now, when I see red, it's just a question of what I am capable of. See, I am starting to think that I am capable of damn near anything.”
“What's a fella gotta do to get eaten around here? What's the matter huh? You're all scared of the big bad wolf? Little pig little pig let me in. I'm gonna huff I'm gonna puff and I'm gonna blow your...all the way in.“
@@browhat9349 I think the title of the episode is Claimers. It’s the episode where Rick bites Joe’s (Leader of the Claimers) throat out, then guts the other Claimer for trying to rape Carl. It’s also the episode where Rick and Daryl call each other “brother”
Oh look, a TWD fan. Fucking nice
Hawk absolutely has the best character arc in this show
We need this hawk back bro

This scene really speaks to the scrawny, bullied teenager I used to be. My HS valued the jocks above any other students and would turn a blind eye to all the awful things the football players did to the quiet kids. It's the reason I dropped out the day I turned 18 and got my GED.
try being the smart kid who also played baseball and football. I started taking Karate after Karate Kid came out, ( original ) after my first fight with the running back ( only 3 months into karate ) I started getting respect. Just fighting back and not taking it meant more than winning to me. ( I also won the fight )
I don't enjoy fighting, my step dad hit me too often for little things, but I respect myself much more now as an adult because I stood up for myself as a teen. I am sorry you were bullied. It shouldn't happen to anyone child or adult.
I was bullied, too. Hence one reason why I started wrestling and boxing.
@@batsonelectronics Damn , It took me years of planning and events I orchestrated to fix the school's bullying and sexual harassment problem while trying hard to play the role of the school weak ass while only a few people didnt buy into because I was the most violent kid of them all not even letting teachers off easy who picked on kids or molested them . But 8 years of hard work made the school a safer place and suicide free . Now its just a regular boring old government school in a 3rd world country .
@@MR-yx8hj boxing i love boxing i also train and if you had problem with bullies they are in for rude awekening
HS sucks because of " too cool cliques" and especially bullies
This scene is actually hella dark but sad at the same time. The music matching with the flashbacks is bone chilling. Season 3 Hawk was unstoppable
that scene where Hawk looks at Kyler like "Go on, say something.... please!"
Who’s here after seeing Brucks’ return in Season 6?
2:40 The boy's face says it all Hahaha Very spectacular scene 10/10
Story aside, Hawk is the best on screen fighter by far
You’re probably right if you’re talking about fight choreography alone.
Thats the hardest part of being the bullied person to then becoming a fighter. Keeping that rage in check, sometimes you can feel every fibre of your being wanting to respond with violence but its not the way.
Sometimes it's the only way.
@@whatareyoulookingat908 Sometimes, violence is the only answer.

I'm so glad Hawk my favorite character switched sides finally but I kinda wish he stayed long enough for Terry Silver to arrive and turn Hawk into a unstable beast because after that no amount of defense could stop him that be so cool
Even if hawk stayed long enough for Terry the show would just make it so defense would win
@@Barry.berkman123 True the plot of armor on the Miyagi Do students are heavy
Yeah but I also don't want his OG friends to hate him for turning into a monster. Doesn't matter what dojo he's at, he clearly has the skill to stay in the top 5 at minimum
If only us the bullied can do this in real life to our bullies 🙏🏽
You can if you wish to, however there are always consequences to such actions.
u can if u want to. learn karate and kick some s
you probably can, just dont think you can be as small as this hawk dude and destroy the fat bully as easy as he did, most of the time the bigger guys be tanky as heck
Bully: gets beat up
Hawk: tuah
those who know
Gotta love the Grim Reaper tattoo. Fitting for this scene; justice is served. Ooooo, the look he gave Kyler, and his reaction... PRICELESS !!! Way to go Hawk !!!
fr it is such a badass coverup of such a shitty and ill-fated tattoo
Kreese may not be the greatest of men, but the way he let Hawk go after his bully was fitting and very satisfying. He understood what was happening and just let him go. Sadly even this wasn't enough for Kyler to learn his lesson.
1:59 the way Kreese says "Big Boy"😂
Lol
“THATS NOT THE MIYAGI DOUGH WAY” ahh moment 💀
Yo the way kreese sets the tone is so gut wrenching. Chuckles and students kick ass and shamed in front of everyone.
Also I love this scene because it shows how someone who’s leaner can affectively use a big persons weight against them
Hawk became my favorite person on the show even on the new season . He’s lowkey underrated
That scene was very telling how much rage Hawk had built up in him from being picked on and bullied. His tormentors had no clue what he had become and that was a warning beating aimed at Kyler. Hawk was a good kid, but he just got lost in the monster he became and the good kid he was finally came shining through. He was the standout character about redemption in this show.
That's how you deal with bullies. 1. That kid will think twice about ever picking on anyone again. 2. Hawk's confidence will soar to new heights
“Get um lip!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I lose it every time! 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
Kreese: "Finish h-"
Hawk: pummels that piece of craps brain into the mat
Kreese: "im"
If you have been a victim of bullying, you know how satisfying this scene is. I was bullied mercilessly when I was young for being overweight and a nerd. I switched schools in 8th grade and started reinventing myself by working out. By the time my Junior year started I was co-captain of the wrestling team, had lost all the weight and was very muscular. One of my old bullies transferred to my school Junior year, but didn't recognize me, even though we had a class together, until one day it hits him that I had the same name as that "fat kid" he once knew and asked me if I went to the former middle school. I said I did and he immediately started ribbing on me in the boy's locker room in front of football players for being a wrestler. So I challenged him to a match, which surprised him, but he couldn't back down. I picked him up and slammed him so hard that his nose bled and was fully embarrassed afterwards, especially since now the football players were ragging on him. He tried to be my friend after that and was always nice to me after that....but I wouldn't give him the time of day for making my life miserable before. Damn did it feel good though owning him and seeing this scene always reminds me of that moment in my life.
Nice story dude, i just wish i had started to learn to fight sooner, i would've had my revenge.
What martial arts were you thinking
Good for you
The flash of the grim reaper tattoo, the hawk screech, the music, the flashbacks, the way kreese told the ref to 'not ref', the way he finished him and some before he was even told to, the way he stared down kyler after putting the most brutal and ferocious beatdown anyone in the miyagiverse has ever received. It perfectly shows hawk at his most unstoppable, when he has something to prove. And what happened at the tournament, he didnt just come to win, he came to prove he wasn't a sidekick, he's second to none. Hawk is an extremely deep character and like we saw he had nothing to prove when he thought kenny, and i think kenny beating hawk was the series passing the torch, Kenny was now the one with something to prove, Kenny ISN'T robbie, Kenny is Hawk.
The music of death RIP Bruck 🖤💀☠️⚰️🪦
THIS IS WHY I LOVE KARMA
The only thing that would’ve made this scene better is if Hawk wiped his knuckles on Kyler’s jacket
That would’ve been stupid
I would of loved that
We don't see his face after Kreese says "finish him" so the idea of how badly beaten and bloody his face looks after the assault by Hawk is left entirely to our imagination.
That's absolutely brilliant directing.
