So what would everyones favorite fight in the history of animation? It could be a one on one fight, it could be a team battle, it could be a fight between humans, monsters, machines or anyone, anything goes! It can span from Western to Eastern animation and everything in between, so any battle in the history of cartoons is open for debate. I will post my answer once I see if this thread takes off and once I see some of the community answers, I figured this would be a fun thread so let's hear it!
 
I swear, if anyone says "the chicken fight"...

I'll put in a good word for Chuck Jones' "Rabbit Punch". Bugs vs. the Crusher for 110 increasingly more ludicrously violent rounds, and just when it looks like Bugs is literally tied to the railroad tracks, the film breaks. (Or does it?)

And since defunctzombie mentioned Wall-E, I'll contribute another Pixar fight to the list - Mr. Incredible and his family and Frozone vs. Syndrome's robot at the end of The Incredibles. That kicked ass.
 
The Chicken fi...(is shot)

-I'll also go with 00 Gundam vs. Reborn Cannon
-Justice League vs. Braniac Luthor (Because Flash is win)
-TT vs. Slade the first time because I thought the fight was really well done.
-Aang vs. Firelord was the pinnacle of Nickelodeon animation achievement
-And Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan vs. the Anti-Spirals for they are larger than the galaxies themselves (no, I'm serious)
 
Several of my faves include:

Robin Vs. Red X (Teen Titans)
Several select scenes of Goku Vs. Frieza, Cell, and Kid Buu (Dragonball Z)
Cloud Vs. Sephiroth (Final Fantasy Advent Children)
Zuko Vs. Azula (Avatar)
The Tamers Vs. Beelzemon (Digimon Tamers)
 
I'm trying to be as objective about this as I possibly can. For me nothing will ever compare to the fight between Hot Rod and Galvatron at the end of Transformers:The Movie. Like I said, I really don't know how objective I'm being about it. This was my favorite fight scene as a child, and it's carried over into my adulthood. I've heard and read a lot of complaints about the rock music soundtrack. But for me it just helped make it not just the perfect fight, but the perfect movie.
 
In One Piece is hard to chose between Luffy vs Arlong and Luffy vs Crocodile. Luffy vs Crocodile win by that much thanks to the background music when Luffy punched Crocodile to the roof and Crocodile passing thru the rock and going skyhigh.

Goldorak (UFO Robot Grendizer) episode 27, when Actarus fight for the last time Hydargos who'll die in the explosion of his saucer.

Strange no one mentionned the numerous fights of Popeye against Bluto in the Fleishers/Famous studios cartoons. ;)
 
Blossom vs. Princess Morebucks (Powerpuff Girls)
Vegeta vs Android 19 (DBZ)
Beast Boy vs. Slade (Too bad we've never seen Starfire, Cyborg, or Raven fight Slade one on one. That would be very interesting to watch. Well, we did see Raven fight Slade, but he was practically invincible, so that doesn't count.)
 
With me, it's a three-way tossup, and the choices are all from Disney films (2 from the same film):

1. Tramp fighting off the dogs to protect Lady in Lady and the Tramp.

2. Tramp fighting the rat from (see above).

3. The Prince battling Maleficent the Dragon in Sleeping Beauty (It's a pity the battle is so short).
 
Megatron vs Optimus Primal at the end of Beast Machines. Seriously, they devoted 20 of the 22 minutes to the brawl. It took them to every location in the show, and the verbal back and forth didn't mess things up either.
 
I'd have to go with Superman versus Captain Marvel from JLU just because of how long and how destructive that fight was especially considering what it was started over.
 
the chicken fight hands down, greatest fight in the history of not just animation but tv itself. that is what makes me rate family guy 7/10 rather than 5/10
 
The fight scenes between Jubei, Gemma and Tessai in Ninja Scroll always get a strong reaction out of me. Same goes for Optimus' fight with Megatron in TF the Movie. That's like the animated equivalent of the street fight in They Live! to me.
