The fight scene in He’s All That is highly familiar to the Cobra Kai fans. Tanner Buchanan’s skills in the popular Netflix series are to die for. Although he doesn’t sport a traditional gi in this film, he moves just as effortlessly in a suit.

One significant thing that the Cobra Kai fans would notice in the fight is that the character, Cameron Kweller, immediately takes a defensive stance. Furthermore, he allows his opponent to flail his arms around and dodges his punches gracefully much like Robby in Cobra Kai. This shows that the actor has gained sharp skills and lessons from the sets of Cobra Kai.

Tanner also showcases his famous kick from the series, initially being calm and practicing Miyagi Do and then moving on to fierce kicks and blows. This fight scene will make his first on-screen sensei, Daniel LaRusso, and his father, Johnny Lawrence, very proud.

Cobra Kai and its cast have surely influenced all of us. Whether it is the teachings of discipline or the fighting styles, the generation will remember this for years to come. What are your thoughts on this fight scene?
