For me, it's All Might vs Nomu. I literally watch this every day before I work out. It's just pure testosterone

Whenever I hear/see anything about a percentage in anime my mind immediately shuts down. That was pretty sweet though. Great animation and it even featured some real take downs.
Wouldn't exactly call it a fight, but Mustang vs Lust is still one of the most memorable moments for me.

I'm just salty about this fight because I wanted Meruem to win. His romance with that neurodivergent girl made me fricking cry.
Also wanted Meruem to survive to possibly fight Gon, Hisoka, or Ging

After that neighbor mass murdered, terrorized, and drank people, it was satisfying to see him basically get tortured by a kid whose hidden power had been hinted since the Saiyan saga
In terms of more recent ones. The Thorkell fights in Vinland Saga come to mind. Jojo fights are also usually good.

Rock Lee vs. Gaara: Probably hasn't aged well but was amazing at the time
Kakashi vs. Obito
Naruto vs. Pain: Probably the peak of the series. Yes the animation in that one episode is wonky but it was still amazing.
Daki vs. Tengen: Demon Slayer is a mid manga overall, but they really blew up the budget on this one
Female Titan vs. Levi Squad / Eren / Mikasa / Levi in the forest: Just a pretty amazing sequence overall.
Boros vs. Saitama: Another "break the budget" fight
Broly vs. Gogeta: GO BROLY GO GOJETA GOJETA
Meruem vs. Netero: In general the "old leader vs. main villain" fights are hype as frick, this is probably my favorite though.
Pucci vs. Everyone: Was surprised I liked this as much as I did since I thought it was a forgettable fight in the manga, but the last stretch of Stone Ocean is peak JJBA madness and maybe that was captured better in the anime. Jolyne's goodbye to Emporio was kino.
Darkness Devil: Just putting this down so the list will age well.

Kiritsugu and Kirei fighting in the Bale Batcave.
In some sense it's pretty atypical anime final fight. Feels really grounded with its use of magic and guns, and there is no dialogue between characters.
Cool, but mostly believable choreography, both fighters take damage, and have clear strengths, and limitations. I just wish the goo wouldn't cut the fight short, like it did.
