Clash of the Titans

Who would you like to see fighting it out in the ring?
Fiction, non fiction, alive or (almost) dead. Whatever, it doesn't matter!

Personally, I'd like to see:
Bruce Lee VS Mohammed Ali (Cassius Clay)

The fastest hands of the East VS the stinging butterfly of the West!

Some fight that would be, I can see it now.
I won't even dare predict the outcome of this . But there would be some nasty punshes.
Ali daring Lee to hit him, challening his speed; fast punches and fast evasions... MAN!

So, what's your dream fight?

However, in a no-holds barred fight, Bruce Lee would kick his ass in a matter of seconds...and I have no doubt about that. Nor do I doubt that there are martial arts masters alive now that would wax Bruce Lee in the blink of an eyelid.

Dream fight? Britney Spears vs. Christina Aguilera, man...and if you need to ask why, you wouldn't understand

Sounds like we've got a "Grudge Fight" coming up sometime soon!

@Kam
No way, Ali is way too much a smart fighter to be beaten so soon.
He'll put up a good fight, and if he hits Lee a couple of times he'll go down. But still I'd put my money on Lee.
BTW, Lee rules! I can't imagine a martial artist right now who could take him on!

Have you ever seen the "One Inch Punch" video? That's how much power Bruce Lee can generate. And you know he's too fast to be caught even by an Ali punch...

I have another idea! CM vs. AR for the title of most annoying GB member

"One Inch Punch" video?
Never heard of it.
Is it the video where Lee shows his fighting style? (I believe he called his style Jeat Kun Do, invented by himself)

Ali is perhaps not fast enough, but he is smart.
I saw a fight of his and he found every hole in his opponents defense. And he was fast too!
I imagine him cornering Lee and give him some fast punches untill he finds a chance to hit him. Then he has a good fighting chance.

CM vs. AR?
And the winner faces Baassie?!

Don't you think Bruce Lee would be at a disadvantage due to the standard Boxing rules? No punching below the belt, no kicks, etc. In straight boxing, Ali would win.

Ali wins by default anyway since Bruce is dead...

I think the One Inch Punch is on one of Bruce Lee's training tapes or something, what he does is have someone stand in front of him, and he holds his fist an inch away from their chest. Without pulling back at all, he launches them across the room with a single punch. Try it on someone - you'll barely even stagger them from an inch...

EDIT - @Gwally - that's why I said no-holds-barred at the beginning of this...of course Bruce would be at a considerable disadvantage with only his fists...
