1 Shark vs. Crocodile?

2 Bear vs. Crocodile?

3 Anaconda vs. Elephant?


Avatar of RobertMumford

1: A shark (depending on type) would beat a crocodile on tactics. Crocodiles kill their prey by drowning them. Wouldn't work on a shark unless by accident (as a shark needs to move to breathe).

2: Depends on territory. But I suspect the bear. However, a bear in say Egypt, might lose due to exhaustion from overheating, and lack of honey.

3: Almost certainly the Elephant. The Anaconda has to use multiple coils in order to crush it's prey, and is likely to only manage a maximum of say 2 on an Elephant. However, the likelihood of this match ever happening is rare: no Anaconda would choose a prey the size of an Elephant, and the Carthaginian War Elephant died out centuries ago, so there are no longer any Elephants looking to pick a fight

1. the crocodile because the shark does not have hands and cannot hold a gun or a knife

2. the bear because he can stand on two legs

3. anaconda. have you ever seen an elephant swallow another animal??

I was just going to say that!

Anacondas have split wide open trying to swallow a crocodile!

1. Shark-  Shark has more manueverabliity than a croc in the water and is faster!

2. Bear, Cause the bear would climb a tree and then jump down on top of croc rendering the croc helpless.

3.  Elephant, the anaconda can not swallow elephant and the elephant would just step on the anaconda!!!

 That's just because they do it so fast.

Who would win in a fight;

heres one im interested in

Jason Bourne vs Bruce Lee

Jason Bourne vs mahammad Ali
Avatar of tactician

Bruce Lee would win against Jason Borne and Muhammad Ali. I wanna see Bruce Lee vs. Jackie Chan even though Bruce would win.

By the way, i don't think an anaconda would try to swallow another animal, it first probably  try to bite the neck, and then try to wrap it's coils around it. And anacondas are huge, some measure around 35 feet.

There's no ______ way bruce lee could beat muhammed ali. In a real 'street' fight, martial arts like taekwondo, kungfu or jeet kune do for that matter are inferior to just plain beating the _____ out of someone.

If it was boxing rules then Muhammad Ali would certainly win. But on streets it would be Bruce Lee.

 

Bruce Lee is faster. Ali would not kick (or at least not effectively), he wasn't trained in kick boxing. Yes, Ali was probably the greatest boxer, but by the time Ali would have thrown a punch Bruce would have dodged/blocked it and would be ready to throw a punch himself or maybe a kick. And lets not forget that Ali's legs are not conditioned to take hits, so any of the Bruces hits to Ali's legs would leave Ali's legs hurting and it's very difficult to fight when you are on the floor.

John Wayne could take them both out!

I wanna see Bruce Lee fight Jet Li (LEE vs. LI), and Jet Li fight Jackie Chan.  I think Jet Li is faster than Jackie Chan!

Kicking isn't very useful in real fights, maybe a kick to someones knee can do some damage but it won't be decisive. Also, 'brute force' is better than 'speed' is such a fight. (Please, don't start talking about bruce lee being stronger than he looks. His relative strength compared to his bodyweight is impressive, but nonetheless it won't help him in punching hard enough to take someone out.)

Believe me, martial arts are just arts, most of them aren't really useful (except for muay thai)  

Not to mention that bruce lee was gay

Flipster, you're crazy!  Watch some UFC and tell me that martial arts are just "arts" and that kicks aren't worth a damn!  Your legs are stronger than your arms ever thought about being.  And in a "street fight" Bruce Lee would probably kick Ali sqaure in the yonkers then throw a bow to his adam's apple when he's holding himself.  "Jeet Kune Do" was Bruce Lee's "invention", so to speak, and all it was was a mixture of ANY (even fencing, boxing, wrestling, etc.) move effective for Bruce from any martial art.  He believed in taking the "art" or frill out of it and only using moves that were effective (different moves work for different people).

In a street fight there's no space to deliver such a kick. Trying to kick someone above hip height is suicide in such a fight.

An 'average' black belt in let's say kungfu will most often lose in a fight with an average marine guy. The same goes for a world class martial artist vs. a world champion boxer.

But that's enough about the systems, more important is the fact that ali had a hell load more raw force than bruce lee. Even with the best technique he wouldn't be able to do a lot of damage to a boxer like ali, who was used to getting hit very hard.

 anyway, this discussion is as old as fighting itself so let's end it
