they magically warp into a street that has nothing nearby (cars trashcans etc) ??

The only situation we are talking about here is if we dropped them both on the street and forced them to fight each other. No holds barred, anything goes. Biting, hair pulling, scratching, groin hitting, pinching, eye gouging, finger manipulation, anything goes. Who do you think is more prepared for in such a situation?

I still put my money on the guy who trained his whole life for such a situation.


So basically you would choose the rules of the fight to cater to one of the fighters?


that's the point--there are no rules...

Because now you're stretching this imaginary fight into borderline ridiculous. If you're trying to objectively decide who would win the fight, why create settings that heavily favor one fighting style over the other? As Tien put it, it would be the fight Lee had been training all his life for. A bit unfair, don't you think?

Even hypothetically, "warping" into a street or alleyway or another random location simply adds too many variables.

-----------------------
no its not imaginary or borderline ridiculous. i wrote "warp" so you wouldnt nitpick. would you like this better? they both walked into the street with nothing nearby.

If you're trying to objectively decide who would win the fight, why create settings that heavily favor one fighting style over the other?
--------------------
because the outcome is dependant on the setting, no setting was specified thus my answer is dependant on the setting. there is no "objective" answer because, well.... rewind a line

As Tien put it, it would be the fight Lee had been training all his life for. A bit unfair, don't you think?
-----------
just like if you put lee in the ring, its the fight ali has been training his whole life for


Even hypothetically, "warping" into a street or alleyway or another random location simply adds too many variables.

lol no it doesnt. specify how?

"no its not imaginary or borderline ridiculous. i wrote "warp" so you wouldnt nitpick. would you like this better? they both walked into the street with nothing nearby."

I wasn't nitpicking warp at all, and yes, it is imaginary. And let's take a step back here. The whole "street-fight" idea is ridiculous. If the two were fighting, it would most certainly be a professional one. It's not pick-up basketball we're talking about. One could argue that one offended another on the street, and they decided to fight, but that adds an emotional variable, not to mention who gets the first strike of the fight.

"because the outcome is dependant on the setting, no setting was specified thus my answer is dependant on the setting."

We're discussing a fight between two legends, and your result is based on a setting? What's the point?

"just like if you put lee in the ring, its the fight ali has been training his whole life for"

You're re-iterating my point exactly. I never said put them in a ring, because that would be hypocritical, wouldn't it?

"lol no it doesnt. specify how?"

Because this fight isn't taking place in a vacuum. "The best-laid plans of mice and men often go astry."

then lets drop this discussion now b/c you already gave it a setting by labeling it "professoinal" which most likely means rules/no holds barred.

there is no real answer unless the questoin is more defined.

i defined the questoin and i gave answers based upon those definitions

Close this topic, its just a waste of time. Ali supporters will continue to use the "twice as big, just as fast, way stronger, and infinitely more experienced" arguement, and the Lee supporters will use examples from his movies, and "credible" quotes from other movie stars about how he was basically invincible.

Oh and Im pretty sure i saw one guy is argueing for Lee because "asians are mysterious and scary". No Comment on that mental debacle.
where from you, circus?

I gave it a tone, not a setting. To be honest, I think this is an unanswerable question, and a theoretical discussion will always be tainted by favoritism/bias.

Well, I think you're wrong. No matter how many paramaters you add, as long as they remain moderately balanced, either one could win on any given day. The same also applies to Ali/Lee.

really? what if one of them was trapped in an unbreakable box and the other one could push a button filling the box with water and theres absolutely no way the box would break or open. what then? haha going out on a tangent just to be silly
