Beatdowns in fiction in which the victim pretty much deserves it
Okay, we all know a fair lot of no holds barred beatdowns in fiction make us cringe and sometimes make us feel a little emotional for the person receiving it.
However, this is not the case. In your opinion (if you must argue the case, you may do so), what victim (good, bad, neutral, whatever) of a beatdown in fiction is one that most deserves a royal ass kicking you actually want to see happen since day one?

Anytime the "victim" does something truly mind bogglingly stupid. Or maybe I'm thinking of myself beating the character when the protagonist doesn't have the guts to do it themselves.

It wasn't one for me, but many people I think felt this way about the beating Cap gave Iron Man in Civil War.

The was a Micheal Crichton book called "Eaters of the dead". It got turned into a movie called the 13th warrior.
Basically an old king needs help from a young king, but a sniveling prince keeps the young king from doing what is necessary to win the combined battle. The young king sends his right hand man into take on an absolute mountain of a henchman of the young prince. It was the only emotional fight of the movie. The quasi-innocent henchman dies. But the sniveling prince has to stay out of the rest of the storyline. |

In Nanoha StrikerS:
Quattro was an utterly vile women. Even Precia Testarossa couldn't make me hate her as much as Quattro did, that smug snake. And of course, Nanoha has a certain reputation for befriending people by beating the everloving crap out of them... This is what happens when Nanoha is actually pissed at you.

Perhaps deserving isn't quite the right word but I do confess that I took a rather morbid satisfaction in watching Galvatron repeatedly wipe the floor with Rodimus and Ultra Magnus in the UK comic. I'll never forget the one that he finished by stamping (and partially burying) R Primes head into the ground.

Anyone here read Kitty and the Silver Bullet (Kitty Norville book 4)
Recall the end? Where the limits of being the single biggest and baddest lycanthrope in town are demonstrated? Carl (ex-Alpha of the Denver Werewolf Pack): I-I'll leave town. To-today! And never come back! Kitty: The same deal you gave me? Carl: Yes! YES! Kitty: Sorry Carl, that's not my decision. <cue rather lethal dogpile> HTG |

Michonne in the Walking Dead, returning to make a house call on Governor Phil, after he had repeatedly brutalized and raped her for some 3-4 days straight.
As utterly messed up and vile as her revenge was (even she herself stopped for a while to puke her guts out), I must say that he had it coming for what he had done to her and most other unfortunate souls who came his way. Gov - You can go ahead and cry if you want to. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Michonne - I'm not crying for me. I'm crying for you. I'm thinking about what I'm going to do to you when I get free and it brings me to tears... it scares me.

And come to think of it, Jean-Paul did go a wee bit overboard when he etched a bat into Tally Man's chest, Zorro-style. Still, the two that Joker got (one from each Batman) were both pretty deserved. Now if only Az-Bats saved a beating for the Hollywood exec, too...

Sasuke's most recent beatdown was pretty deserved.
