As awesome as fight scenes often look on film, much less when they’re intense enough to earn a nomination for Best Fight at the 2010 MTV Movie Awards, it turns out that they’re not always as exciting on set as they ending up looking on the silver screen. Describing the process of putting together his scuffle with Jake Abel in “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief,” Percy Jackson himself, Logan Lerman explained that shooting the scene was occasionally a little uncomfortable.

“It was awkward,” Lerman admitted in an interview with MTV News.”I felt really stupid doing it. You’ve got to put your mind outside of the room and embarrass yourself a little bit and feel comfortable to be in the moment.”

Notwithstanding his fight in the movie itself, Lerman will soon find himself battling with a capable group of candidates for the Best Fight award, including showdowns between Beyonce and Ali Larter, Hugh Jackman, Live Schreiber and Ryan Reynolds, Robert Downey Jr. and Mark Strong, and Sam Worthington and Stephen Lang. But even as a budding bruiser, the young actor seemed confident about his fight scene’s chances. “You throw ‘em all in the ring, I think ‘Percy Jackson’ is going to win.”
