“You taught me that” that line definitely hit a nerve in Jonny.
He finally saw the wrong in it 😢
The moment when you realize what you been taught for years is wrong!
It’s funny to see how much more grown Miguel looks now in S5 while Robby still looks basically the same just with shorter hair
kinda but Robby is SIGNIFICANTLY more jacked in season 5 than he was in season 1 so credit to Tanner on that
Well yeah but let’s not forget he was only 17 here, and 21 in season 5. Tanner was already passed 18 in season 1 so it kinda makes sense only Xolo has grown
@@idkanameimnotthatcreative7456 jesus christ hes 21?
@@idkanameimnotthatcreative7456 do you mean the actor or the character??????. Cuz the actor was 18 in season 1 and he's 23 now. Robby Keene the character was 16 in season 1 and he's 18 in season 5.
@@paradise9151 the actor
I genuinely couldn’t imagine being in Johnny’s position in this moment. This must’ve been incredibly stressful for him having to support his students but also seeing his son get attacked with the same “No Mercy” ideology he taught them.
Fr
even more... he saw miguel fight like he himself was taught by kreese back in the day which in the end destroyed him... and u can see that he doesnt want miguel to go down the same path
@@spixxy1751it’s just nice they are getting along now
I don’t know why, but the way Miguel says “time?” is just hilarious to me
It's like he heard that word for the first time
It reminds me of James Rolfe, if you get what I mean XD
Neither of these kids has had it easy, but neither one understands the other. Miguel looks at Robby and sees a pretty boy who has never been bullied or has any idea what it's like to be him. Robby looks at Miguel and sees someone who is a bully just like his father was.
I doubt Miguel looks at Robby and sees a pretty boy🤣
They both didnt have their fathers growing up
@@NiKi-ij2ln and neither knows that about the other. It's not about who they are but about how they perceive each other.
Robby as a pretty boy,he sufferer a lot more than miguel,all he had is his mom and even his mom didn't care about him,ik she got better in s1 but in s1 she didn't care about robby
@@nishamarkose9966 never said anything to the contrary. I'm saying this is just how they likely see each other.
I love this fight , it shows how similar they are too each other and becoming like there sensei’s. Miguel is Legit Daniel and Johnny fused together into one Robby is if Johnny had the right teacher in this moment
Miguel: Offensive Daniel Robby: Defensive Johnny But they both resemble Daniel and Johnny
Preach! 📖
i love it when miguel goes "AAIIII" when he takes stance
Yea thats awesome. Its kinda like a battle cry so he does that everytime he stances up. We learn that in Karate as well.
0:10 and 3:44
Intimidation tactics
Man the breathing before Robby enters back into the fight is so good. I know we've had four seasons since then, but I really feel like Robby peaked right there. He's centered, focused only on winning. There's no hatred, or anger, or consideration of his opponent as an enemy. He's only trying to use the best karate he can. Incredible.
The dude is back in Season 5. He's got nothing to win or lose anymore, and he's balanced again
I love this fight between Robby and miguel was brilliant.
Miguel is the bad guy. Robby became Miguel in Season 4. Johnny is in Cobra Kai. But now he is the founder of Eagle Fang. Everyone changed.
@@rickyhuynh4641 yeah and Miguel was the better bad guy tbh
@@rickyhuynh4641 he isn't a bad "guy" he wan under bad influence no one turns bad people They are just UN proper taught people
@@innitparody5209 black suited Spider-Man version
@ApexEdits robby is the best character
4:06 I love how supportive hawk is
it's funny how we're 5 seasons in now, and not once has "the strongest kick in Miyagi-Do" been brought up again.
Talk about plot-holes.
Bet they're saving it for a moment later on. Also wondering if it'll be the ultimate technique that only works once/ "so last season" like the Crane Kick in KK2.
I bet Robby could do it again, it would be nice to see him do it again
Also haven’t seen Miguel perform that special kick
Daniel does that while ending silver in S5 last episode
I like how much their fighting styles have changed in season 5 but Miguel is still the offensive fighter while Robby will always be more defensive
Their first fight is iconic
One fought like this was a real life combat scenario and one fought like it was a tournament with rules. That was always the difference.
But why can’t Miyagi do work in a street fight? It consists of fighting defensively where you dodge and block until you find an opening and hit, and also vice versa, Cobra Kai works in a tournament by fighting offensively using skill and even aggression to win a point.
@@ToroBravo144there’s tons of fighting styles and martial arts styles that can’t or won’t work in the streets
@@ToroBravo144 Eh, Mr Miyagi fought the cobra kai kids and silver and kreese and he barely touched them
@@deliacozo8542 He knows the other secrets of Miyagi Do. There was a lot he didn’t teach Daniel tbh. Plus Miyagi was a WWII Veteran. A few teens with karate is a walk in the park.
@@ToroBravo144it can but it relies heavily on counterattacks so that might be a problem
When Robby kicked Miguel with 2 legs and he offered him his hand to get up and instead he hit him Hawk literally said YAHHHH
One of the things I really liked about this fight (and the first two seasons of Kobra Kai) that kinda got lost as the series went on, was that there wasnt really a bad guy. It was a fantastic character-driven show where everyone had flaws and you could root for anyone. In later seasons Kobra Kai just got more and more evil until it was eventually a pretty straightforward light vs dark show. Not sure if the final season will bring that around but short of "ah ha ha everyone hates each other again and jonny/daniel split up for a 4th time" I dont see that happening
Yh i agree, cobra kai used to be about johnny and daniels rivalry, it lost that feeling after s2
One thing I’m actually happy about is Tory turned good
Hawk's reaction when Miguel wins🤣❤️
I was finna say that
4:07
You really get shocked once you've realized that Robby with his backstory was more suited to be in Cobra Kai and Miguel with Miyagi Do
Yeah Miguel is the Daniel and Robby is the Johnny
nah i think it was right that miguel learnt cobra kai instead
It’s like a what if scenario What If Johnny Lawrence joined Miyagi Do First What If Daniel LaRusso joined Cobra Kai First
the good thing in this fight is that robby when the match finished, he bowed to miguel showing him respect despite the fact miguel got the win cause he focused on his injured shoulder..
Ye so true he was playing so dirty
@@axlcyald5812 Yeah but if he kept a clear mind Miguel would’ve won 3-0 probably. He was too consumed by anger which probably made his offense better but he had no defense. which is why he gave up 2 points
@@yessirski1672 that is the rule and teachings of cobra Kai..lol you always fight with anger and aggressive if your in cobra Kai.. there's a reason why they teach "no mercy" in cobra Kai.. Miguel is focus to win that's why he hit Robby's shoulder so that he can make sure he wins..your always consume by anger if your in cobra Kai Bec that's their teachings..
@@abduldimaporo7342 cobra kai and miyagi do are not the strongest forms of fighting anymore. They’re merging the styles therefore making miguel better
@@yessirski1672 what are you talking about?
Terry Silver would love to accept this version of Miguel to be his student. He fought dirty just what Silver wanted to win
Honestly this one of the best fights in the series
Still waiting for Robby to use the two legged kick again
These flashbacks give me goosebumps. Love it
ROBBY AFTER TWO WEEKS ONLY OF TRAINING AND HAVING SEVERE INJURIES WAS ABLE TO GET 2 OUT OF 3 POINTS AGAINST PRIME MIGUEL WHILE MIGUEL IS ONLY HITTING ROBBY IN HIS WEAKNESS PLACES
Facts, he also managed to do the 2 leg kick. Daniel couldn’t even do that after decades
Plot, it makes zero sense other than the writers trying to build up suspense and is obvious after you watch the school fight where Miguel had Robby subdued and could of broke his arm if he really wanted to but let him go and we know what happened after that Edit: actually the reason why Robby did better was because he had more composure and balance
Robby will clap miguel 👐🫰
@@horsekfobster7823 yeah ur right, Daniel is a hella quick learner but the fact Robby mastered the kick that Daniel tried to do for over a decade in less than a day or 2 shows how fast of a learner Robby is
Miguel wasn’t as competitive u can tell because he knows he is injured u think Robby would actually would of had that many points on him if Miguel was trying his best against Robby no💀💀💀 Miguel clearly won
This was the fight that would determine who the main character would be.
Johnny must have been so disappointed and shocked in Miguel's conduct.
More shocked about how he failed diaz the same way kreese failed him
@@myhrebu8224 Robby broke Miguel's back in Season 2, but many people forget Miguel attacked Robby's already injured shoulder several times during this fight. Miguel could have given Robby career-ending injuries. He wanted to make Robby suffer, not just win.
@@HxHwillReturn You’re insane for comparing attacking an opponent’s weak spot to win to Robby pushing miguel off the ledge even AFTER miguel put his fists down. You must’ve never played a sport because if you have any weakness, people WILL exploit it. That’s the reality.
@@yessirski1672 the point was already won. Miguel did that when a fight wasn't happening. You're point is now invalid
@@yessirski1672 It was a cheap shot and Miguel should of been disqualified in the finals He was fighting dishonorably
This was an brilliant fights between these two
Johnny’s last expression was like don’t go there Miguel
4:11 even his mother noticed a change in his son
@@marrychrismas306taught or told what?
@@marrychrismas306 think it's s01e09, he taught to the whole class about no mercy lesson. But I don't think he specifically used these words "there's nothing dirty about winning".
I loved the Rivalry between Miguel and Robby because in some ways, Miguel is Goku who's proving to be the best, while Robby has Vegeta's hot-blooded Attitude and pride.
Except Miguel isn’t really like goku in this scene and Robby is the more calm and clear minded in this scene
@@Zero-pz6jo maybe Miguel is Vegeta while Robby is Goku which is the other way around.
@@Zero-pz6jo it was only in this season where Miguel turned Vegeta In the rest of the seasons it's robbie I like how they are bros now after all the rivalry
@@jessemillan1385 Miguel Diaz is Yin(Bad) Robby Keene is the Yang(Good)
Just give up on the dichotomies they are complex characters don't put them in a box
I like how he was the antagonistic one and won anyway. Good subversion. Just cause you're justified doesn't mean you come out on top.
This fight is one major reason to why Robby showed Miguel no mercy later when Miguel did the same here, Miguel was deliberately hurting him here and other stuff through season 1-2.
Exactly, and a lot of Miguel fans forget that.
seriously, im glad someone said it
Is true, but Miguel went into a coma
Completely different situations
@@deliacozo8542dude almost couldn't walk again.
Robby is the champ in my opinion. Always against the odds
@ApexCobraEdits 🐍 and he held back on hawk in a crucial moment
I agree. Robby is way overhated by the fanbase, and underestimated by them as well. He’s a damn good fighter. S5 SPOILER even after the rivalry between Miguel and Robby is done and they are practically good friends now, the fanbase is still hating on Robby trying to compare him to Miguel. Who cares, the rivalry is done.
In this fight Robby was definitely better but in the later seasons the better fighter was Miguel and even hawk improved. In current standings it’s 1.Miguel 2. Hawk 3. Robby
@@Bryan36802 S5 Robby is better than S5 hawk
@@Bryan36802 nah they nerfed hawk I'd say Robby beats him rn. But it could definitely go either way
I really love how Johnny tried to take Miguel under his wing turning him into a bully, the. We got a repeat with Robby and Kenny
Season 1 cinematography was much better than the rest
If there is a season 6...i want Robby to win the All Valey or th Sekai Taikai
Me too! Hawk and Miguel already win.
@@chicledementaa well imma win again in s6 just watch
@@thegoatmigueldiaz lol
Johnny will root for his son
Miguel or Robby either one is fine but I'm more on Miguel's side lol
Miguel is kinda like Black Suited Symbiote Spider-Man vibes and Robby Keene is kinda like Anakin Skywalker Darth Vader as darkside version
After S5 I would say that Miguel is like Darth Revan while Robbie is just Anakin/Vader
@@sohummohare6364 Miguel gives a Peter Parker vibes in the beginning meeting Johnny Lawrence
3:07 Guy: im finished let’s end this Girl : nonononono let me finish
No mercy Miguel is fire
This was the only season of Robby being a balance character and then on season 2 it was Miguel’s turn
That was the point of this final episode. To set up miguel’s development
Miguel should've been disqualified after what he intentionally did to Robby's arm.
Most places give you a least one warning especially if he was acting like that the whole tournament
look at the aisha's face😂 0:22
When I watched this I didn’t know whose side to be on
same broo
Miguel will have been the winner of this tournament, but Robby was the best fighter, even with his injured arm, he managed to put up a very good fight and although he lost, he bowed to Miguel, maintaining respect and honor for their fight, which Miguel did not do at the time. being completely blinded by anger and wanting to hurt Robby just because he misunderstood things between Robby and Sam when they arrived at the party. After seeing Miguel and Hawk win in a tournament, I feel that for the Sekai Taikai tournament the fairest thing is for Robby to finally win it after the effort and hard things he had to go through throughout the series, even so putting the last name Lawrence at the top.
I mean, Robby, in season 1, is kind of a dick I mean, sure, he has his nice moments, but everybody does he isn't like usually nice. I mean, sure, he showed sportsmanship, but he also insulted Hawk, which caused him to hurt his arm, so he kinda got what was coming for him.
Putting up a good fight doesn’t meaning he’s better maybe more durable
@@gjjijjiyea but with one arm and it’s 2-2 and miguel was cheating that’s more then that
@@dinetioneditz8109yea if Robby had one arm maybe but if to he would have won very easily
@@dinetioneditz8109just stop it! can we just have our peace without you bothering us.
Actually in this fight Robby wins. And after these he was changing to beast mode. SS 4 Robby. 🥵🥵🥵
Miguel pushing the refs arm 😂 1:16
Even though he lost his fight Robbie is truly the G.O.A.T.
2:41 miguel fans watch this
Robby did way worse when he caught Miguel off guard and kicked him over the railing after being spared, almost killed him and ran away.
@@pedrosoares2582 he didnt mean to kick him off the roof did he but miguel meant this
@@dj4rtstudios149 Still did it, and ran away like a coward without even checking if he was alive, not to mention that he taunted Miguel at S4 with that, and don't forget that he tried to punch Miguel at S3 when he just got out of his coma and barely started to recover, were those unintentionally assaults too?
@@pedrosoares2582 ok lets talk about all things miguel did to robby, kissed his girl TWICE, insulted his relationship with his father, attacked him when he was breaking up the fight, pushed him on the floor before he even knew who was
ok? what does that prove?
I always loved a fight between rivals🥋🥰🤟
Ik miguel is the fan favorite and is like more than Robby but let’s remember Miguel started the rivalry when they met at the party and tried to hit him when he was defending Sam and then in the tournament he fought with honor and after he knocked him down he tried to help him up only for Miguel to hurt his arm even worse Robby didn’t get bad until the episode where Miguel turned in the necklace and Robby didn’t tell Sam I’m glad they are friends and like brothers and season 5 but they could’ve been from the start no matter how jealous Robby was of Miguel’s relationship with his dad he didn’t start this long rivalry
Facts I don’t like Miguel he annoys me sometimes
Agree. But no Miguel fans will admit that. Lol
robby started the hate qhen he saw miguel hugging his father. then he is with sam at a party. he says to sam : is this yout bf? which means he doesnt like the guy (miguel) miguel is justified
@@xenisty4829did he do something against Miguel tho?
Miguel started everything and Robby gets all the hate because he is the one who is "bad".
Only fight, to date, where Robby walked away seeming like he was honestly better than Miguel (and probably the last time, now that they had their "once and for all" in season 5), keeping up and gaining an edge with one arm, until Miguel took advantage of his sportsmanship. Still not sure if the moral is going to be that "Zen" Robby is strongest Robby, or if the creators just plain ended up favoring Miguel.
S5 fight was so stupid, it's like they literally just wanted to humiliate Robby.
They've both came a long way
Ok unpopular opinion: Miguel is still a better fighter, but achohol and anger got the best of him In the fight you can see him put pressure on Robby without hitting his arm, but does it cuz f him I guess😂😂😂😂
4 times, he hitted his injured sholder for 4 times
And I think illegal contact ones once
@@iiiheartt.arii2 the contact wasn’t illegal. It’s an injured spot but you can still get a point for hitting them
@@sadsadasdd3328 true but it should still be disqualification for hitting the spot on purpose
And he wanted to step on it too, i mean he could've kicked him in the face, earning a point but no, Miguel wanted to hurt Robby.
this was a epic game Lawrence vs Lurusso.. lurusso won but.. Robby vs miguel.. miguel won.. whos the best? lawrence and miguel or lurusso and robby?
Hawks face 😂
4:06 hawk face lol😂
That moment johnny Realize that he creats a monster then in season 2 he told miguel his true feeling
I don’t care what anyone says Robby was the superior fighter in season 1. The way he was able to clear his mind and keep that balance made him a better fighter than Miguel who was fighting out of anger. I’m 100% sure if Robby wasn’t injured he would’ve won.
I'm on team Miguel but yeah I agree with you here. Robby > Miguel for s1
I like Miguel than Robby. But it's true Robby S1 > Miguel S1
Robby doing well in this fight despite being DOES NOT prove he was better. It’s pretty nonsensical
@@gjjijji Miguel couldn’t score an actual point without hurting Robby’s arm. If robby wasn’t hurt he would’ve beat Miguel.
@Dinetion lame excuse. The entire point of cobra kais fighting style is to use your anger and aggression on people. If anything it helps him out.
they need to bring that 2 legged kick since only mr miyagi and robby have done this i think
Best Series ❤
Imagine season 2 Miguel if neve got hurt so season 5 Miguel still never hurt Vs season 4 robby now that fight would be badass!💜
GREAT FIGHT BETWEEN MIGUEL KEENE & ROBBY DIAZ
3:28 Good lord its haunting to see Lawrence’s grave mistake early on like that 💀
Miguel plays dirty
This version cobra kai with Miguel hawk and Aisha will always be the best do season 1 and cobra kai was the best with the dojo
No mercy
Johnny was most likely thinking back to when Kreese made him fight dirty against Daniel in 1984 and so he didn't want Miguel to fight dirty against his son.
Time and time again Miguel proved he is better than Robby
it is just too sad
This was the moment when Miguel began to feel the negative effects of being a Cobra Kai. Just like its creator, John Kreese, that is not the art of self-defense, but of hurting people. And Johnny Lawrence was in charge of reviving those forbidden techniques of the well-known "No Mercy."
@@marrychrismas306 Johnny always taught the essence of the real Cobra Kai to Miguel as well as his other apprentices, until he realized how serious it could really be to use the classic "No Mercy."
the way they did s1 was perfect,what I mean is Daniel won against Johnny in 1984 and they want a cobra kai to win in the Same time showing that the miyagi do is better,like Robby was better in s1 but miguel won as the makes the season more perfect as it shows Robbys loyal less and respect and Miguel's trash behaviour
Robby getting into his one-handed stance against miguel like rock lee vs gaara.
3:59 makes people hate miguel
The monster thats been created 😢
The creators saw good potential in Robby and how Miguel was going down a darker side, they pulled an Uno Reverse card in S2. Really shows you who they favor 😮
Miguel is literally the main teenage character they’ve said this from day 1
@@yessirski1672 hawk and robby are better characters
@@ashishkaplesh3932 doesnt change the fact about Miguels prowess
Yeah but it was still well written so it actually worked out pretty well.
Looking back at this scene and season 5 I actually think they never wanted Robby to be the bad guy. Robby always fights for what he believes in. He even stood up to silver. He is the real winner to miyagi standards because he doesn’t fight to win, he fights for what really matters just like Daniel.
ROBBY EL MEJOR GUAPO
3:31 miguel: no mercy *starts villanous music*
Hawk should be miguels brother and keen could be their cousins
Even tho he lost, he fight with one hand, impressive
William Zabka is a much better actor than the scripts he's had in the past have let him be. You can see his concern as the fight evolves is two-fold: He is personally worried about Robbie, which is pretty normal for a parent, but he's also realizing that he's done to his students just what Kreese did to him. His "My God, what have I done?" look needs no dialog.
This fight is amazing. I love they has very different style im been sad because Robby lose and also is not fair because Robby has got dislocated shoulder. For me the best scene is hand stand kick. Robby🥋🌳👊🔥 Miguel💪💥🔥
imagine season 1 Miguel vs Season 4 Robby, that fight would be riveting to watch.
season 4 robby would destroy
Season 1 Robby is stronger than season 1 Miguel in my opinion because he was able to withstand Miguel good with one arm and an injured arm. So if Robby had 2 arms he would beat him in the tournament. When it becomes season 2+ I think they both become equal except for seasons 3-4 because of Miguel’s spine injury
@@JSt3pz I wouldn't say he's stronger Miguel is bigger overall and miyagis style helped him deal because it's entirely defense based so that's why he was able to keep up
@@RhynnMedia Except Robby had to deal with two cheaters back to back.
@@UnifiedEntity what does that have to do with anything ? I'm talking about literal body mass and strength I'm saying Miguel is bigger so he's probably stronger as well Robby is faster and more agile though for sure we never see Miguel do the crazy wall kicks like Robby so what's your point in saying he fought cheaters ?
Handwork beats Talents
i don't know what's handwork is but I know what hard work is... it's not hard work if you need to fight dirty against an injured opponent
I like cobra kai
When Johnny realize he created another him
If cobra Kai only had 1 season Robby would have won because if cobra Kai lose the tournament once the shows over
When Cobra Kai was at its smaller stakes.
Where can I find the sound bite from 1:25/1:27 when Robbie begins his centering to find balance?
La primera es que no me acuerdo 6 de los derechos de la gente y la verdad no hay que se pueda dar un paso atrás y no se si se puede ir 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Robby would have won this fight if he wasn't injured. This was the only season where Robby was better than Miguel. Also the two legged leg part was the best part of the fight.
Nice
No mercy..!!!😂😂😂
Miguel 💪👏👍😎😎👌
looking back on this, i gotta say puberty hit xolo like a bus he grew a lot in s4-5
Yeah Miguel looks like a baby here
When he caught the leg at the end, he could have broken his leg instead. Targeting an opponent's injury is a legitimate strategy, just ask Alistair Overeem from when he repeatedly kicked and kneed Brock Lesnar in the stomach after his surgery and ended Lesnar's MMA career.
You got served elgin and david
