Good choice! This fight ends in a triangle choke. It was choreographed by Rorion Gracie (I think.)

I would have said this, except JBB wanted a fight between a hero and a villain (not the case here) at the end of the movie (not the case here).

But it is a kick-ass fight scene.

Does no one here watch Hong Kong films?

Jet Li in "Fist Of Legend" against the seemingly invincible Japanese General ... duh

Hell, the whole movie kicks ass

I now realize that I've violated the parameters laid out by JBB. Nonetheless, this scene kicks much ass.

Can't leave out Rocky - and at least Rocky 4.

What I mean by "epic fight scene" is a one on one fight scene between the hero and the villain that is usually the cilmax of the movie. It's also probably long.

I'd say the shootout in Heat after the bank robbery, but that's not the climax of the movie.

EDIT: nor is it one-on-one

Bruce Lee vs. Chuck Norris in Return of the Dragon. It's especially great because the whole thing is set up as a psychological progression, not just a matter of eventual luck, surprise, or who's the grittiest or baddest or whatever.

I wish that way of setting up fights, to make them inherently interesting on a level that goes beyond the punch-out, had caught on. Fight scenes would be much more fun today, and less mechanical. I still have the most fun in fight scenes that have psychological elements to them.
