Favorite Pre-90's fight scenes

I know its hard to remember a time before the advent of special effects/CGI Superhero fights. But for those who loved action films prior to the 90s, what are some of your favorite fight scenes before CGI took over? Are the scenes brutally depicted, well-choreographed, or just pleasing to watch. Who is the choreographer/martial artist behind the film and what film is it?

I need a list of some examples. I can't think of any major ones off the top of my head.

Well, there's a lot of quality fights in those classic Bruce Lee movies. Chinese Connection's scene where Chen Zhen goes to the Japanese Karate Dojo and beats down all the students and their sensei. Also the scene where the Japanese invade Huo Yuanjia's school and it's an all out battle. Pretty much all of the fights in Enter the Dragon, particularly the iconic finale where Bruce takes on Mr. Han in his temple and they end up in the room of mirrors. There's also the fight between Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris in Way of the Dragon.

I like to think that wasn't in the script, and he just didn't want to wear the damned things.

"Put on the 1980's sci fi shades!"

"**** you! **** your cheap sunglasses!"
