I've gotten from karate.

I've gotten discipline...

... health, self-confidence...

... inner peace.

Everything that makes me

what I am today.

And today, it's time for me to give back.

It's my pleasure to announce

my partnership with the greatest...

... karate man I have ever known,

Sensei John Kreese.

Yeah, Mr. Kreese.

Together, we are about to open

a chain of Cobra Kai dojos...

... where young people can come

and learn the same values I've learned:

Honesty...

... compassion...

... and fair play.

Thank you all for coming.

Enjoy the final match.

Thank you, Mr. Silver.

And thank you again

for your most generous contribution.

Remember the game plan.

First you win a point,

then you lose a point.

Keep the score 0-0.

Pulverise him for the full three minutes.

Then in sudden death,

you get the point, we win.

I want him to experience pain.

- First he suffers.

- Then he suffers some more.

Representing the Cobra Kai,

the challenger, Mike Barnes.

And in this corner,

someone who needs no introduction...

... the defending champion

from the Miyagi dojo...

... Daniel LaRusso.

This match will have

a three-minute time limit.

The first fighter to score three points

will be designated this year's...

... All Valley Under-18 Champion.

- Fighters to your marks!

- Go out there and get him.

Flatten him out, Mike. Fight him!

Remember, folks, the new rule this year

states that if there is no winner...

... at the end of three minutes

the championship match will go...

... into sudden-death overtime.

When it's over,

his mother won't recognise him.

You both know the rules.

Light contact is allowed to the body,

and I do mean light, Mr. Barnes.

No face contact is allowed.

Any violation of the rules

will result in a penalty point.

On your lines.

Come on, Daniel!

Face this way, bow. Face each other, bow.

I said bow.

Fighting positions. Ready? Begin!

Break, break! Let's go.

Out of the ring. No point.

Begin!

Point, Barnes.

Score:
1-0.

Look over at the slope.

Is that perfect?

One point Barnes for the punch.

Fighting positions.

Begin!

Danny-boy, how are the family jewels?

Get off the mat! Now! Get off the mat!

Do that again, Barnes,

and you're disqualified.

That illegal groin kick

will cost Barnes his previous point.

Score is now 0-0.

Kick to the groin. Penalty point.

- Score is 0-0.

- You're dirty, Barnes.

- He'll get you 'cause you're dirty.

- Fighting positions. Ready? Begin!

That's the one, Mike.

Barnes scores the point. Reverse punch.

Go, Daniel!

Come on, Daniel.

Let's go, LaRusso.

Point Barnes.

Score is 1-0. Ready?

Come on, Mike, you got him.

Begin!

Break, break!

On your line!

That's it, Barnes.

One more violation and you're disqualified.

That illegal punch

will cost Barnes one point.

The score is again 0-0.

You all right, LaRusso?

Intentional face contact, penalty point.

- Perfect.

- Score is 0-0.

Fighting positions.

Ready? Begin!

Now the real pain begins, Danny-boy.

On your lines.

That's a warning

for running out of the ring.

Come on, Barnes!

Fighting positions. Ready? Begin!

Break! Break!

On your line.

He'll get up.

He's too dumb not to.

LaRusso, on your line.

Get up, you pansy-ass!

- No point for kick to the back.

- No point scored.

- This is beautiful. It's beautiful.

- Fighting positions. Ready? Begin!

Break!

What's the matter, you can't breathe?

- On your line.

- I love it when he pounds him!

- On your line.

- This is more fun than I thought.

No clean technique on that exchange.

No point scored.

The score remains 0-0.

Ten seconds left in the match.

- Let's go, Danny.

- Fighting positions.

- You gotta turn it around.

- Ready? Begin!

Time!

Break!

There will be a one-minute rest period.

Then the match will continue

with sudden death.

- Daniel-san!

- Mr. Miyagi, it's over.

- No!

- It's over, forget it.

- No!

- I'm afraid. Let's go.

- I want to go home.

- Can't! You must not!

Is okay to lose to opponent.

- Must not lose to fear!

- Yeah, well, I'm afraid!

I'm afraid of him, all right?

What do you want me to do?

You stay focused.

Daniel-san,

your best karate is still inside you.

Now time let out!

That's the end of the rest period.

- Fighters on your lines.

- Come on, get up!

Get on that line!

Get on that line, LaRusso!

You're worthless!

Your slope teacher's nothing!

Get up, man!

You're no champion. Get up!

You suck, LaRusso! You suck, man!

And your teacher's karate is sh*t.

You hear me? He's sh*t!

You're done, LaRusso.

Your karate is a joke.

And your teacher's worth sh*t.

He's nothing! And you're nothing!

I own you! I own you, LaRusso!

Where's your little Jap teacher now?

He's a phoney, man.

He's a fake

and he didn't teach you nothing.

Your karate's sh*t. You hear me?

Get up!

Come on, Mike!

This is what we've been waiting for!

Fighting positions.

Ready?

Begin!

Mike! Take him out!

Hit him!

Get the point! Get the point!

Hit him, Mike! He's hallucinating.

Winner!

The winner and the first to ever win

two years in a row...

... the grand champion, Daniel LaRusso.

Mr. Miyagi, forget about it!

We did it! We did it!
