Default Re: New Fight Question

Assuming no weapons and no rules, then I think:

35% World's best ultimate fighting champion because he has the most experience in similar few-rules fights

25% World's best karate and or other Asian martial arts because he may be more skilled in technique than the ultimate fighter, but probably has less 1-on-1 few-rules fight experience. On the other hand, he probably trains more than the SEAL who has other demands on his time besides non-weapons fighting like fighting with weapons, moving as part of team, explosives training, and all those military time-sinks like fit reps, change of command ceremonies, inspections, and not to mention actually going to war where most of the time is spent waiting and only a very small amount of time is spent fighting.

20% World's most elite Navy Seal as far as hand to hand combat is concerned.

15% World's best boxer. I think boxing has a lot of rules that would put the boxer at a disadvantage in a no-rules fight. He'd have a chance if he laned a great shot early, but once the match turns to wrestling, gouging and choke holds, he's out of his element.

5% World's best real streetfighter from a gang or whatever. My guess is that real street fightst are typically settled with sucker punches, knives, guns, and anything else that gives one fighter an unfair advantage over his opponent. It's like that scene in Unforgiven, "You just shot an unarmed man." ... "I guess he should have armed himself."
