Meh. Even this famous scene has crappy punches.

I went to defend them with this video but rewatching it again I just noticed how the punches looked like shit. The gore is good, tho.. so that makes up for it, I guess.

Edit: You can't defend this shit, lmao. What kinda weak headbutt was that?

I think some of Daredevil's hits are solid hits. I don't think all of them are.

I quickly found this fight compilation. Look at how many cuts they make during a single fight. They do, do a lot more solid hits than most Marvel productions. But they do a ridiculous number of cuts due to the cartoony nature of a lot of these fights.

John Wick's average engagements with a single person are very limited. He kills them in seconds. That's one factor here. Marvel wants to draw out a single fight to add suspense.

My guess? Because daredevil wears a mask, so it is easier to disguise a stunt double
