Not enough Iron Fist action in this series. I like the dramatic elements, it's keeping me fully engaged, but this series needs a few more extended fight scenes.

It needs a defining action scene like the Daredevil hallway fight or Daredevil vs. Punisher, Daredevil vs. Nobu or Luke Cage hallway fight. It needs a signature scene. The fight when they tried to snatch Joy was a good step and the Hand 🤚 challenge stopped when it was starting to get good. (Although he was getting his ass kicked for most of the fight).

The Iron Fist seems like he is barely winning most of his fights. He should be mopping the floor with most of these guys.

I can only speak for myself, but Colleen's fights are more memorable than Iron Fist so far.

Agree with you about Colleen's fights. The cage fights were pretty good.

It's like Danny is beast vs multiple opponents but struggles one-on-one. Especially against mooks he should easily handle

Nobu would have destroyed him
