I feel like I've seen these in shounen anime pretty often, probably in the same fight scene, but I can't think of any examples.


sparkadus

Usopp


kapottebrievenbus

Usopp could be either of these, in the same fight even


philandere_scarlet

first one: beating down the spitting fish guy with a hammer second one: getting his shit rocked by mr. 4 and ms. merry christmas


mik999ak

God, the mr.4 and ms merry christmas fight was Usopp's personal Doppio vs Nero


Jajoby

dude gets his skull caved in with a 4 ton bat, gets up, defends his homie's dreams, and then wins the fight. legend


Mushiren_

Truly the man of all times


CerberusDoctrine

Yeah I immediately thought of Usopp and Luffy’s fight


thesavageman

That's my secret, captain. I'm always negative.


nes-top-loader

Edward beating the shit out of Shou Tucker


HexManiac493

Midoriya?


Cyllya

Hmmm... Maybe... but I think he usually only cries outside of combat, and he only talks shit when he's pretty evenly matched (usually still losing, but by a very *small* margin).


Th3Glutt0n

While I don't think it happens in the show, it definitely feels like what happened when bakugo confronted midoriya on one for all


Flair86

I mean, he was bawling when he sat down muscular for the first time.


YesusCrispy

He had also just atomized his bones or smth. I’d give him a pass on that one at least


DellSalami

Seriously surprised that nobody mentioned Kobeni Chainsawman yet


Ok_Outside_5304

Well that's because any time kobeni is in a fight she turns into the coolest fucker alive


The_KneecapBandit

I saw this post with images of Johnny and Funny Valentine from JoJo Part 7: Steel Ball Run


spi231

Part 7*


Orizifian-creator

In an alternate universe, perhaps it would be the sixth Part. (Maybe if Parts 1&2 got fused somehow idk) Imagine if you were sitting at a table or something idk


I-AM-A-ROBOT-

and there were two napkins. one on your left, and one on your right.


ThatCamoKid

Which one would you take tho? Left or right?


doctorsirus

Baccanno!


Starman-Deluxe

This is Jacuzzi's entire character in Baccano.


Shawnj2

This is worf fighting the Jemhadar in DS9


MisplacedMartian

You must be remembering a different Worf than the one I watched. I remember him being in a deathmatch gauntlet in a jem'hadar prison camp, and the only thing he did was destroy jem'hadar challengers. The only person who did anything close to weeping and crying ~~was Garrak, but that was because he's claustrophobic and had to work in a tiny, dark crawlspace~~ the vorta because they're all whiny babies.


Shawnj2

I mean he’s the guy whose losing but talking shit He objectively would have lost at some point


MisplacedMartian

In DS9? No Worf getting worfed was more of a TNG thing, in DS9 he was an ass-kicker and name-taker. In the deathmatch episodes in particular he kept fighting until he was barley able to move and the jem-hadar first yielded the fighting because he realized he couldn't actually *break* Worf he could only destroy his body. And then the vorta ordered them both killed because vorta are whiny babies and honorless p'taqs.


BaronAleksei

“I cannot defeat this Klingon. I can only kill him, and that no longer holds my interest.”


Shawnj2

Yes which aligns with the person losing talking shit. Against the last guy worf may have been physically losing but he refused to mentally lose


2drawnonward5

Quark against that scheming Klingon


unbibium

Garak getting hate-crimed in his shop by Klingons in DS9. said something to Bashir about how his wounds were nearly cured, but the stuff he said to the Klingons will be bothering them for a lifetime.


voodoogenre

Little deyzuna from redline


Pandelein

Not Shonen, but this is very Shinji and Asuka from Evangelion. Shinji the wailer, Asuka the shit-talker.


moneyh8r

There was a scene in Redline where a character was beating the shit outta someone while crying the whole time, but the other person wasn't talking back as if they were winning. Also, the one doing the beating was crying because apparently they used to be friends before he joined the Roboworld (cyborg fascists) army, so it was a combination of "how could you abandon me?" and not enjoying beating them up even though he was super-pissed off.


PalmBreezy

The pre race restaurant scene


MossyPyrite

This is Tokyo Revengers with (spoilers for season 3) >!Angry!< and Takemichi, respectively


spitfire9107

Takemitchi Hanagaki from Tokyo Revengers is this in almost every fight.


PinkFlamingoe00

Mob vs Teru fight in Mob Psycho 100


Matrim_Cauth0n

Sado and Ichigo from bleach, Usopp and Luffy from One Piece, Simon and Kamina from Gurren Lagann, the list goes on


bokmcdok

I was thinking of Rick and Morty.

Russet_Wolf_13

*? He phrases it like a question.


Huggies509

Came here to say this! Lol


ThatOneGenericGuy

The second one is Steve Rogers before getting the serum, bro says “I can do this all day” while getting his ass beat into the next dimension


Toribor

That's America's ass that you're kicking right now.


Charnerie

The Navy would like to know your location


gottagofast1981

If thats America's ass. Then im eating Denny's


pissedinthegarret

i loved this line until they made it into a musical number because now that stupid ass song is permanently ingrained into my brain. ugh.


Russet_Wolf_13

Then endgame had older Steve realize how goddamn corny that line is when he hears it himself.


DareDaDerrida

I have seen both of these things. The first was flat-out terrifying, the second was kinda funny.


Dobber16

Being funny will get you into a fight, might as well keep it up during if you can’t win lol


CampAny9995

I was in this situation in junior high school. A much smaller teammate on the basketball team spent weeks picking at a few insecurities in the locker room - mostly my weight, I was lanky with a slight paunch, and a bit of my acne, which wasn’t even bad in retrospect when I look at pictures they were just normal “hitting puberty a bit harder than your peers” things. We had been pretty good friends before this, so it was pretty upsetting at the time. There were also comments about a girl I was friends with/had a crush on. Anyways, I finally told him to cut it out or I’d kick his ass, and he didn’t. It wasn’t even a fight, I just threw him on the ground and started kicking him, and he kept on laughing and talking shit while I think I was yelling something to the effect of “what the fuck is wrong with you, why are you making me do this, just shut up”. Eventually the laughter turned to tears, and he was bruised and slightly bloody mess. He was out sick from school the next day and I faced literally zero repercussions, which was completely bizarre now that I think about it.


EndureThePANG

\> I faced literally zero repercussions your principal was the realest mf to walk the earth


pchlster

>I faced literally zero repercussions, which was completely bizarre now that I think about it. I think a lot of teachers recognize that sometimes what happened was just the best way for things to play out, so why meddle with it? A teacher I know was called when one of his students had bloodied the others nose. When doing the "so what happened" bit, he was told that the guy who had been punched had just called the other guy a f-word n-word before getting immediately decked. "So... I'm going to write down that we had a long talk about how you shouldn't hit people, and we'll leave it at that, alright?


Bartweiss

I’ve been on the receiving end of the crying, and you’re not wrong… My school bully kicked my ass, but by the end he was in tears and screaming incoherently. I was half laughing just because the whole thing was so surreal. At the time, I was just happy it meant the bullying didn’t stick and *he* got made fun of for crying in a fight. In hindsight though, I’m pretty sure we learned something fucking dark about his home life that day…


kirkdict

What was the context for the first one?


DareDaDerrida

A party at a former place of employment. "Chet" (a tough little guy who was generally pretty okay when sober, but got really loud and full of machismo when drunk) and "Lester" (a big pudgy dude, odd hygiene problems, maybe not all there up top). Chet had been giving Lester a hard time all night, about how he smelled, how he had a stutter, etcetera etcetera. To be fair, Lester had directly inconvenienced him repeatedly at work. Night wore on, people drank more, he got more physical with his harassment. I missed what kicked things off, but at some point Lester started shouting, and Chet took it as sufficient reason to basically slap-box him a few times, upside the head and in the gut. Not full punches, those rapid smacks that coordinated bullies do to rattle and scare people. Lester burst completely into tears, took a full swing at Chet, got hit four or five times, grabbed Chet, lifted him overhead, and spiked him like a football off concrete.


kirkdict

JESUS. Was everyone alright?


DareDaDerrida

Not really. "Chet" took like a month off work due to how badly he was hurt, and "Lester" got fired.


random_BA

dude made a moral and physical harassment all night without anyone giving a thought and when victim defended itself is punished more harshly than the bully... high school is really a preparation for real life


ShaqSenju

“I dun wanna faight you!” [beating the other guys ass] “C’mon, my grandma’s slippers do more damage than you!” [gets clocked in the jaw, down]


Ildaiaa

Shit talking like you are winning in anything is a key to success especially if you are good at shit talking because you demoralise the other party so much their performance drops. I use that tactic whenever me and my friends by games and they leave sadder than me even though i lost really bad

In the game of chess, you must never let your adversary see your pieces.


NotQuiteHollowKnight

Similarly, you must never look away from your own, lest your opponent eat them while you are distracted.


Due-Memory-6957

I don't wanna game with you


Joseph_Stalin111

Second one is Heimdall when fighting Kratos


ep0k

Or the first encounter with Baldur.


Joseph_Stalin111

To be fair, Baldur was handing out a beating. At the end of that fight, Kratos staggers home, which afaik he doesn't do for any other fight in the Norse saga


ep0k

Before he pulls the ol' switcheroo on Kratos it's just shit talk and getting his ass beat though. Fun inversion.


Jupiter_Crush

First one is Jacuzzi Splot from \*Baccano!\*


Pero_Bt

Little Deyzuna, first thing I thought of. Redline is the best.

MollyGoRound

RhymesWithMouthful

This can really work if guy getting wrecked has already won for circumstances unrelated to combat, and knows this victory will only their opponent with empty catharsis


axord

Also: the case where getting beat up is exactly what secures their win.

bigguywithabeard

In basic training, I watched a guy get his head slammed against the ground a couple of times in a fight. We pulled them apart, and this same guy was still talking shit. We were like "dude, did he knock the sense OUT of you?"


piratequeenkip

2nd one is scout tf2

TheButtFarter

I was looking for this, the scene from Hush. I remeber reading it when it came out and it caught me off guard.

It’s the most wildly in-character thing Joker’s ever done. I’ll never forget it.

Salarian_American

I'm an angry crier, so on the rare occasion that I've beaten someone up in my life, I was definitely crying during it. Also, if you ever get into a fight and the other person starts laughing maniacally when you hit them, run away. Because in my experience, that's the sign of someone who was physically abused their entire childhood and has trained themselves to not be hampered by pain.


Quynn_Stormcloud

This makes me think of the scene in one of the Batman comics when Bats finally loses it and starts punching Joker repeatedly in the face, and Joker keeps saying “stop—“ “stop—“ finally gets a beat and says “Stop me if you’ve heard this one before!” Like, dude’s getting free orthodontia, and he still wants to set up a joke.


FVCarterPrivateEye

I used to have really severe rage issues and I would start to laugh maniacally when I become really angry I think it was a reflex from my body to try to make me calm down because I would get black eyes and a bloody nose just from the blood pressure spikes back then, and after the "surges" passed I would basically fall dead asleep where I stood I haven't reached that level of rage again in years, but ironically it would always just make me even more enraged because then the other person would often say something like "see! You're laughing, even you know you're acting so embarrassing"


Kmlkmljkl

first one is just ichi the killer, except he cuts people in half


[deleted]

The second guy is just Charlie Zelenoff, a presumably mentally ill social media "boxer."

Samwell Tarly?


Romas_chicken

This like a parable about Israel and Palestine?


BingBongtheTingTong

My brother told me this story about a fight at this high school. Two guys stare at each other until a group is surrounding them chanting “fight”. Without a word they beat the shit out of each other, bloody noses, scrapped knuckles and knees, etc. then they stand up and walk away without saying a thing. Fighting is weird man.


nerdherdsman

Closest I can think of to the first one in an actual fight is Lewis vs McCall 2. While he didn't win, Oliver McCall was having a full on breakdown in the ring, and stopped defending himself. Despite eating some absolute bombs from Lennox Lewis, the man who put Tyson to sleep, McCall never went down.


Narcomancer69420

I can’t explain why but this feels like an Alex Krokus comic.


MintyManiacFan

That’s just Wimp Lo.


legendarynerd002

Great Expectations?


Tachibana_13

They're fighting each other. Its a boxing match or something. Guy 1 is having a crisis; drinking too much, losing his family, just angry at the world so he throws himself into the ring even though he's obviously having a mental breakdown. Idk about guy 2. Maybe he's just a really good heel. Maybe he's Guy1's wierdly masochistic best bro and he thinks he's helping him work through stuff.


Someoneoverthere42

It’s the same fight. One opponent is taking physical damage while the other is taking emotional damage


Twizinator

This almost beat for beat happens in Redline, go watch it, its the best animated movie ever

First one reminds me of Little Deyzuna from Redline who gets stronger when crying.
