You alreay talked about so many of my favourite fight scenes and more that it's getting really hard to come-up with a new suggestion. Have you done Netflix's Daredevil and the great use it makes of his powers? Have you done Anime? If not, it's probably for a reason but there are plenty to cover. The use of the elements and fighting styles are very creative in Naruto and The Last Air Bender series and sequel. The next live action movies I can think of are more obscure. Have you seen Tsui Harks's "The Blade" ? It has a unique fighting style. Or even weirder: the Hong-Kong Movie "Operation Scorpio ?" It's pretty bad but the fight scenes have a lot of creative ideas.

Glad you brought up Banshee. I think you may have missed what was maybe the best fight, Anna/Carrie vs. Olek (Season 1, episode 8). I also liked Arrow for about 3 seasons. It went bad when they had Oliver "change" into a nice guy. He was pretty hard core before then for a TV show. TV shows have a habit of changing a difficult protagonists or side characters into cuddle-bunnies. I hated The Flash and gave up early on it because (1) Barry could have made every episode about 2 minutes long by actually using his speed and disarming or incapacitating the villains rather than standing around, and (2) too many speedster enemy plots. Don't like or watch Tom Cruise's stuff (other than Edge of Tomorrow) because it goes to impossible or crazy set pieces which I'm not a fan of. The Bond movies fell into that trap until the reboot of Casino Royale and then fell into its own trap.
