I have a few picks:
Logan vs Shingen in The Wolverine

As this thread was revived, Supergirl fighting Reign at the Christmas party.
Goku vs. Frieza in DBZ
No Supergirl fight ever made sense.
movies:
Captain America Winter Soldier elevator scene - close quarters combat at its finest
television:
Agent May vs Ward, Agents of SHIELD - actually a lot of Ming-Na Wen's fights are extraordinary.
Film:
The heroes' fight against Thanos on Titan from IW. The entire battle, from Thanos' arrival until his departure, felt like it was ripped right out of a truly epic comic book to me.
TV:
The Justice League vs. the Brainiac/Luthor hybrid at the end of the "Divided We Fall" episode from the JLU animated series. Same reason as above.
The bridge scene from Captain America: Winter Soldier.
I still hold CA:TWS traffic overpass fight as the gold standard, with the CA:CWS assault on the Lemurian Star as a close runner up. Although, I have to say, Cap's appearance in AIW, however brief, gets honorable mention for chill-bumps factor, as does BP's appropriately savage and hard to follow assault on the Boko Haram substitutes.
Obviously, I go for the acrobatic fights.
My Gold Standard is the last 40 minutes of Man of Steel where Superman goes at it across Smallville and Metropolis with General Zod and Faora. For the first time we really got to see what would happen if Kryptonians battled on Earth. Christopher Reeve's Superman II is something I loved as a teenager, and still do, but it's the Saturday Morning version compared to MoS.
Some called it "destruction porn."
My response: Yay!
I already offered an opinion, but I gotta say, Cage and Bushmaster in S2 of Netflix's Luke Cage is comin' up fast from the outside. Superpowered, but believable, fast, mean, and brutal. All of their fights were awesome. Sadistic candy really.
Alot of people didnt like that jungle fight scene in BP I thought it cool af..the way you only got glimpses of him from the muzzle sparks was cool. It was hard to follow by design. But I wouldn't put any BP sequences on a top fight list. Now stuff From the last 2 cap movie and Infinity war would rule my list. Atm I might be leaning toward Strange vs Thanos. That whole fight is epic but the part where Strange starts letting loose was trippy and cool. Also cap and BP running into battle together in Wakanda gave me goosebumps. But that was more of a nerd Geek out and there was nothing special about the choreography. It was just solid like most fight scenes.
Nightcrawlers assault on the white house might still have top spot for me once all the Avengers hype I'm feeling settled down.
Lots of good fights already mentioned, but I have a soft spot for Thor vs the Hulk in Thor:Ragnarok.
