00:06Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the most brutal
00:16confrontations between bad guys on television. Beware of spoilers.
00:21Oh, and if you loved the villains on this list,
00:29be sure to check out all of the episodes of Citadel Diana on Prime Video now.
00:3310. Lorne Malveaux vs Lester Nygaard
00:43Fargo. Inspired by the Coen Brothers award-winning 1996 film,
00:47this dark anthology series has been lauded for its exemplary storytelling.
00:52The first season of Fargo was epic, concluding with its fair share of violence and poetic
01:00justice. It revolves around a manipulative hitman named Malveaux and an insurance
01:05saleman named Lester, both of whom commit heinous acts throughout the series.
01:09Their bloody trail is riveting all season long and culminates in a brutal showdown in
01:16Lester's home. Despite not matching Malveaux's toughness, Lester outsmarts him, finally becoming
01:21the predator he's probably always wanted to be. We'll certainly never look at a bear trap the
01:26same way again. 9. Lucifer vs Kane
01:40Lucifer. Chloe is presumably Lucifer Morningstar's greatest weakness, and his foe Kane thought he
01:47could use her as his secret weapon, setting the stage for one of the series' most memorable
01:51fights. In the Supernatural cop drama, the charismatic devil walks among mortals in Los
02:04Angeles and works as a police consultant. Initially, Kane seeks Lucifer's help to break
02:09free from the curse of immortality, but no longer desiring death, Kane plots to kill Lucifer.
02:14Of course, his plan backfires and he finds himself in one-on-one combat with the devil.
02:25Their confrontation is thrilling, even though Kane never really stood a chance. Ultimately,
02:30Lucifer finishes him off, but not without revealing his real face in the process.
02:348. Fish Mooney vs The Penguin
02:44Gotham. Fox's Gotham is a show teeming with unsavory characters, and Fish Mooney and
02:50Oswald Cobblepot are among the most captivating. Their constant rivalry is a thrilling highlight.
02:56The villain-packed prequel to Batman's story revolves around the city's infamous rogues,
03:04sometimes making us cheer and even care for them. Case in point, the finale of the first season,
03:10when different criminal factions collide, with Mooney and Cobblepot in the thick of the chaos.
03:15Their brutal rooftop battle is intense, leaving viewers on edge about the outcome. The showdown
03:30ends with Cobblepot pushing Mooney off a rooftop to the watery depths below.
03:34Looks like this time, the Penguin got the fish.
03:377. Spike vs Angel
03:50Angel. Buffy fans know Spike and Angel's relationship has gone through it all,
03:54from mentor and protege to rivals and even uneasy allies.
04:00So it's no wonder they finally unleash it all in an epic smackdown. This Buffy the Vampire Slayer
04:12spinoff follows the titular character's quest for redemption as he helps those with supernatural
04:17problems. In season 5, Angel and Spike's relationship and
04:29confusion over a prophecy explode into an aggressive and emotionally charged battle
04:35in a deserted opera house. Clashing with fists, stakes and even crosses,
04:43their fight is truly incredible, ending with Spike emerging victorious over Angel.
04:486. Hannibal vs Tobias
04:58Hannibal. The manipulative yet enchanting Hannibal isn't the only dark persona lurking
05:04in this chilling series. In the episode Fromage, we meet Tobias Budge, a creepy
05:10of Dr. Lecter's patient, desperate to impress him. It may come as no surprise that the relationship
05:21between the two killers turns deadly after Hannibal kills his patient Franklin in Tobias'
05:26presence. A raw and brutal dance breaks out in his office. At first, Tobias believes he
05:38has the upper hand, not knowing that Hannibal is simply toying with him. This expertly choreographed
05:43fight concludes with Hannibal defeating Tobias, proving once again that he is not to be underestimated.
05:495. Punisher vs Kingpin – Daredevil
06:01A conversation between a walking arsenal and a violent, ruthless businessman is bound to
06:07escalate quickly. While not as spectacular as other Daredevil fight scenes, the clash
06:21between Punisher and Kingpin is raw and powerful. The two face off in impromptu hand-to-hand
06:27combat. Kingpin lets Castle make the first move before landing his own hefty blows. Had
06:38Frank Castle not been bound and beaten, their fight might have been tougher. Or maybe not.
06:43Sure, Frank took down a bunch of goons, but Fisk's sighs and heavy punches might have
06:48made even a fresh Castle sweat. Jon Bernthal and Vincent D'Onofrio bring all the heat that
06:54makes the scene a standout Daredevil moment. 4. Homelander vs Soldier Boy – The Boys
07:15Homelander may be the most powerful being in the universe, but that doesn't mean he
07:19can't be challenged. His thrilling brawl with Soldier Boy and Butcher proves that
07:30he isn't untouchable, although he still emerges from the fight. In the entertaining battle
07:34between these supes, Soldier Boy is outmatched, pinned to the wall by Homelander. Butcher
07:39steps in to give Homelander a tough challenge, especially with his temporary powers. Nothing
07:49beats seeing the egotistical Homelander being punched in the face and nearly stripped of
07:54his power. Stormfront is another formidable supervillain capable of taking on Homelander,
07:59especially since his beam has little effect on her. 3. Nola vs Clay Burton – Banshee
08:08This high-octane crime series is filled with intriguing characters, meaning memorable fight
08:13scenes are bound to happen. The fiercely loyal assassin Nola Longshadow is in search of vengeance.
08:24Her quest leads her to face off with the local kingpin Procter's henchman, Clay Burton.
08:30A thrown tomahawk ignites a visceral, beautifully choreographed fight. The camera following
08:40the characters as they tussle in the backseat of a car is a particular standout. The epic
08:45brawl is filled with tenacity, emotion, and brutality. By the end, it's clear who the
08:50superior combatant is, but the confrontation is gripping throughout.
08:542. Khal Drogo vs Margo – Game of Thrones Watching two formidable warriors fight is
09:00always exhilarating, and Game of Thrones is no stranger to such spectacles. One unforgettable
09:13fight sequence is the duel between Khal Drogo and his raider, Margo. Though he died too
09:18soon, Daenerys' Dothraki husband was a complicated and fierce character. His Season 1 battle
09:34with Margo may be the beginning of his end, but he dominates the fight and shows his dedication
09:40to his wife and unborn child. The gruelling brawl sees Khal Drogo dodge Margo's vicious
09:45attacks without weapons, cursing him before ending the fight in a decisive manner.

10:16while until he decided it was time to make a move against his master. These two gave
10:33us quite a show as they fought for dominance. Simon, always the schemer, aimed to take over
10:38the Saviors by eliminating Negan, but boy did he learn the hard way not to bite the
10:43hand that feeds you. The Sanctuary became a battleground for these awful antagonists
10:55to unleash their fury, with Negan finally beating Simon. Surprisingly, many viewers
11:00found themselves rooting for the lesser evil in Negan. Similarly intense was the fight
11:09between Merle and the Governor, with fans knowing only one would survive. Which villain
