Fight for hours, cursing at the "clone", lift my shirt to wipe the sweat off my face only to realize I have no belly button and thus was the clone all along. I would then take my head between my hands and scream my lungs out "NOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo!"

Thinking about it we'd probably just beat the shit out of eachother and the fact that it was my clone would have little to no bearing on the outcome of the fight; it'd be just like fighting some guy.

The dull truth.

I managed to kill Dark Link in the Water Temple, so I know how to handle those situations.

Flash vs Flash clone in SC would be interesting

I'd probably make sweet love to my clone. I like myself that much.

Wouldn't that be incest?

depends entirely on the environment in this case

I dunno why everyone assumes it'd be some kind of perfectly symmetrical battle. There are plenty of things that will come into play, such as room geometry and how one side might favor you more than another.

The only thing I know for certain in a mirror match is that I'd kick my ass.

As OP says the room is PERFECTLY SYMMETRICAL which means you would do the exact same things because nearly everything in the universe is deterministic (the exception being subatomic particles which are the only truly random things in the universe but they won't be having much of an effect).

We'd realize we share the same goals, team up and rule the world. Yup.

If I had to fight my clone it would be based on luck. Since we would both be the same size it would come down to who lands some lucky punches and wouldn't be very interesting to watch. But say Bruce Lee had to fight a Bruce Lee clone then the greatest fight in the history of the world would take place.

.........This begs the question of who would be on top.

I'd be too lazy to fight and just sit down and listen to some "The Who"

Well, it would depend on whether or not my clone received the same amount of martial arts training as I did. Just because he is my genetic clone doesnt mean he knows everything I know and it doesnt mean he is in the same shape I am in.

I'm confused why the OP thinks me and my clone would have the same thought processes. This situation really isnt any different than 2 identical twins fighting.

oooh, is the universe absolutely deterministic or is it in some way probabilistic?
deterministic => always a draw
probabilistic => you win 50% of the time. (a draw is possible but very unlikely.)

The thing is, does he know that he's the clone or does he think that he's the original? Small things like this can change the way people think.
