I'll start off with in no certain order;
Handfights: A toss up but lean towards "Fight Club".
Gunfights: "Open Range"
Car chases: "Fast & Furious" franchise.
Billy Jack smaller than his opponent, telling his opponent “I’m going to put the right side of my right foot right across your right ear and there’s not a damn thing you can do about it” (or something like that), and then WHAM! he drops the fella with a kick
Car chase - Road Warrior.
Car chase: Bullitt or French Connection, F&F is CGI BS.
Gun fight: Open Range or Heat
Fight: Heston versus Peck in The Big Country (totally realistic, not fake like all today crap). Enter the Dragon.

Joe Kidd (Clint Eastwood) drives a train through the saloon in Sinola, shooting up the place and all the bad guys in it (1972).
Hand fight: Raging Bull.

LOL....Classic Rowdy......I'm here to kick ass and chew bubble gum.....and I'm all out of bubble gum......
Fist fight - McClintock - the mud fight

The Transporter (with Jason Statham) movies aren't bad, but the plot is incidental to the car chase.
Some of the driving in the Red movies are pretty good, too.
