For the catfight fans, Seinfeld did a whole episode about catfights and their appeal to men. Raquel and Elaine got into it at end:

Welch was something of an "expert" on catfights thanks to all her brawls (though some were "scripted" in-film) for KANSAS CITY BOMBER. Though I suppose the less energetic catfight in ONE MILLION YEARS was the proximate reason for Raquel's casting in the Seinfeld ep.

Other memorable moments include brawling with Leslie Nielsen in the last NAKED GUN, punching out her disrespectful boyfriend in STUNTWOMAN, and having a brief kung fu fight with Lois Lane in LOIS AND CLARK.

I wish she'd done more comedies. RIP.

From IMDB:

Trivia
Raquel Welch kicks men in the groin in 15 of her films, more than any other living actress.

Raquel Welch cause of death
Unfortunately, Raquel Welch, the undeniable beauty, died at 82. Raquel Welch cause of death is cardiac arrest, as mentioned in her death certificate. She had also been battling Alzheimer’s for a long time. This could have played a role in Raquel Welch cause of death.

This came as a surprise to many as her diagnosis of Alzheimer’s had never been revealed to the public before. The actress’s death was first confirmed by her representatives at Media 4 Management.

Her last pictures in public were from last July when she visited a nail salon.
