You probably understood from the title. The Jackie Chan style of fighting where it's 90% comedic, he just uses random bullshit around his environment and make-believe. Now I wonder how well that could transfer to word?
Because in images/videos, you can clearly see the environment, you know that here's here. But it's very surprising to see someone actually use it in a way you couldn't have imagine, but in words, you don't just... describe every single thing around the characters right? That's a very big gun Chevkov don't even want to hold. I did try for a brief moment but after like 3 hits I ran out of things to do and end the fight prematurely.
So I want to gather some cases where authors tried to implement this into their work, and how they did it, because I'm interested in diving into this more. Anyone ever written or read something like this?

"Freeze, criminal, you're arrested for not saying good morning to your sister!"
Mei Magmal appeared out of nowhere with Rina's bow; now a wooden stick pointing at Pearl's back like a lethal weapon. In which Pearl sighed, but actually played along raising his hands up in the air in a surrender fashion before muttering something back to Mei:
"e...t....S..l..."
"Huh? Did you say something?" Mei said while lowering her staff to take a step closer.
"Flour Flash." Pearl whispered, reaching his hand over the nearby table and threw flour towards Mei's direction, temporily blinding her.
"cough...WAH! Why was there flou-"
Before Mei could finish the sentence, Pearl's longer legs got behind her knees and he tripped her to fell backwards.
"Elemental Spell: Whirlwind."
Mei was still stunned and almost fell to the wooden ground head first, but Pearl used air magic to cushion her and push her upper body upwards to standing again, only to be face-slammed into a cupboard he then opened which made her took a step back in a daze, barely two step was enough for Mei to regain full conscious and retaliate by casting a spell.
"Elemental Spell: Icicle Sh- UFHM!? Ot Air (not fair)!!!"
Before anything happened, Pearl quickly shoved raw dough into her mouth to shut it down. He took this moment of surprise to quickly pat her on the head a few times with a slight smile that no one saw and he brushed off immediately. Mei got a window of time to wipe the flour off her eyes and thrust the staff towards Pearl; worried not of missing in this narrow kitchen. But instead, he tanked it straight to the chest to grab Mei's hand, that was when the wood from the floor rises up and secure itself tight around her wrist.
