Warning! This article contains SPOILERS for Daredevil: Born AgainMatt Murdock's fight against Bullseye in MCU battle, but Matt's outburst of rage in episode 2 is even more brutal due to one subtle detail. Daredevil is one of the best street-level fighters in the MCU, as he's able to stand his ground against enemies like Kingpin, Echo, She-Hulk, and the Hand. Similarly to characters like Spider-Man, however, Daredevil prefers not to use excessive force if it isn't necessary. In fact, Matt Murdock's no-kill philosophy is the strictest in the entire MCU.

Unfortunately for Matt Murdock, coming to an agreement with Wilson Fisk and witnessing Benjamin Poindexter get incapacitated wasn't enough to keep his loved ones safe, as White Tiger has been murdered in Daredevil: Born Again episode 3, he lets out all his contained rage in a brutal fight against two corrupt police officers.

Matt Murdock Is Even More Brutal In Daredevil: Born Again Episode 2's Ending Fight Scene

Matt Murdock Doesn't Hold Back Against Two Regular Humans

Matt Murdock allows the two corrupt police officers to intimidate him in order to justify his violent outburst. Once pinned against the wall, Matt offers them a glimpse at Daredevil by breaking their bones and knocking them unconscious. Matt has never been as straightforward in his attacks, often preferring technically perfect martial arts moves and acrobatics. This time around, Matt seems to take pleasure in doing as much damage as possible without crossing his line again. What makes Matt Murdock's attacks especially brutal in this scene is the fact that, unlike Bullseye, these two cops lack an enhanced skeleton, special skills, and special training.

Aside from his training and his natural, near-superhuman skills, Benjamin Poindexter a.k.a. Bullseye possesses an ultra-durable body, enhanced by a metal implant in his spine, which may or may not be made out of adamantium. This is the reason why Bullseye managed to survive a fall from a rooftop after a brutal beating by Daredevil, and why he seems to be in perfect health during his trial. Using the same amount of force, Matt Murdock could easily kill or permanently injure any other opponent.

I'm Convinced It's Matt's Grief Over Foggy That Led To His Brutality

Matt Murdock's Rage Has Been Brewing For A While

It's easy to forget how much time has ed between Foggy Nelson's death and Matt Murdock's violent outburst in Daredevil: Born Again episode 2. Matt Murdock seems to have suppressed his thirst for revenge by the time he takes up Hector Ayala's case, and he appears to put all his focus on the legal side of the case. However, Matt's outburst proves that his rage has only increased since his last encounter with Bullseye, and anyone who stands on his path could be beaten to a pulp should they reawaken Matt's bottled-up grief and anger.
