The final fight in Drunken Master 2 took 4 months to film. One week is typical, but Benny is saying that it was non-stop and they basically lived on the set.

[@livingbeing1113]

I would argue it's the best duel in martial-arts movies history, it's so well choreographed, and a perfect mixture of flashy and more direct stuff... The Jet being a real, legit fighter added credibility to it of course, and Jackie Chan is incredible as usual...

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

Many people don’t realize this is an excerpt from a much longer interview. It appears that I cut Benny off at the end, but that was just due to editing. I drove 3 1/2 hours one way just to get this interview. Believe me, I got a lot more than five minutes!

[@KungFuQueenie]

@Hi I did. It’s 58 minutes long and it is posted here on KZbin!

[@youngchool]

Thank you for this wonderful interview footage and also for the clarification. I indeed thought it ended rather abruptly. Wanna see.the full interview someday. I was so Glad to find out I am not the only one who thinks the fight (Wheels on Meals) one of the best, if not the best. Mr Benny brought in something very different from what were being done by those HK martial artists and stuntmen. Sort of Jackie:Benny = Bruce: Chuck in The way of dragon. I like my friend, missed the days of Bruce Lee but grew up watching Jackie Chan and co. My top 3 from him are : Wheels on Foods, Project A, Armour of God II. We were so impressed by Mr Benny back then!!

[@SilverforceX]

That fight scene with Jackie is THE BEST martial arts scene in cinema history. The impacts felt brutal, and the pace was lightning!

[@2bsure]

Silverforce Without a doubt. In fact both films where they fight are awesome choreography. Love both of them them as they are so humble. Actors yes but true Martial Artists, they have my respect.

[@Grandmastergav86]

Silverforce Thanks to Sammo Hung, who always makes Jackie look his best.

[@tcof9690]

in the aspect of martial arts. That true. But that just because the first 2 police story and project A dont have any the martial artist ego moment. as action movie, they are better. dont get me wrong, this great. but that 4 movies imo is JC best work

[@VijayKanta]

It's second best and it's inspired from the greatest one, *Colosseum Climax Fight* from Way Of The Dragon

[@hondamanvtec2894]

Dragons Forever is even better 👌

[@kirachew5422]

On behalf of the asian community and a fan of martial arts movies, Mr benny is undoubtedly a real powerhouse and that fight scene is legendary.

I remember watching a documentary about martial arts movies and it noted that fight scene from Wheels on Meals as the greatest fight scene ever recorded - after watching it, I had to agree it was amazing. I was always amazed how great Jackie was, but seeing Benny The Jet against him, knowing that Benny was an actual champion kickboxer, put him on another level. Yes Jackie was and is an amazing movie star and stuntman, but it always struck me that Benny is the real deal fighter! - he proved his skills in the ring - movie stars rarely do that

No need to talk down on a different athlete. Mayweather has been tested over and over, and just played the game that is boxing to be successful and win fights. Just like Urquidez he fought in a very competitive division and did very well. Two great champions in their own category.
