"You're pretty good" quest - Sneake is not fighting

Sneake is not fighting, he just stands there waiting to be punched and beaten. Tried re-play it few times, same. This might be a bug.
 
I had this happen, too, last night and was just thinking about reporting it. I happened to come across a comment by someone else yesterday on another thread who also had this issue which gave me a clue on what to do. I just went ahead and beat the tar out of him, and once he fell to the ground and didn't get up, it triggered his dialogue and finished the quest.

I met him on my previous playthgrough and once again in my current playthrough. Same issue each time. Maybe something prevents the fight from starting correctly, like having multiple companions? No clue.
 
At the time I encountered him, all I had was Dogmatey with me, so I'm not sure why he doesn't follow up on his own challenge. XD However, I just went ahead and smacked the living daylights out of him and it worked.
 
I just thought Sneake was just so arrogant that he was willing to let you have the first punch in the fight.
Didn't work out that well for him.
 
I don't use companions, because I have this perk that gives you more AP in VATS when travelling alone (and my sniper rifle is slooow).
This is what I did, I just beaten him until he surrendered and asked me where to go (settlement selection menu).
 
I could agro him after hitting him several times, but the fight would always end with him dead, save the last one I stoped right before the last blow and he ran away say'n " This is just like my twelfth birthday "... aaand I lost it. lol most hilarious thing I ever saw :) still can't complete it tho
 
After reading this thread, I followed the advice of @FastBlackCat and I got quite a comical result. After I started punching Sneake, he began running away from me. I just stood there waiting for him to come back and he would run back and then run away in fear again. I finally started chasing him to get the fight finished up at which point a stray dog joined in and I had to punch the dog out before I could continue chasing down Sneake. I was finally able to defeat Sneake at which point I could successfully recruit him for a settlement. I have a feeling that is not the way it was supposed to go.
 
I let him throw the first punch. I smacked him hard, so hard he flew over my shoulder and landed in a junk pile. I can't get him to move off the pile (next to the power generators) just to see if he is alive (I have god mode turned on and in my X-01 power armor), 10 strength, 10 dex.

So what am I doing wrong as the quest is still in my list? Do I need to reload and smack him a different direction?
