Who would you want to fight?
06-03-2015, 02:07 AM
I didn't see a thread about this anywhere and as of a few days ago I've been wondering who I'd like to go at it with.
The idea of course comes from Fight Club where they were talking about who in history they'd want to try fighting.
After talking with my father about his youth for a bit, I got to wondering what it would be like to fight pops in his prime. Which of course was followed by thinking about how to win, and then wondering if I could win.
Having grown up with a natural intensity that I can only imagine I picked up from my father then made me wonder again, just how strong were the men whose genes I inherited carry.
I'm now left to wonder just how that match up would play out, Vs my father and his father and on and on.
What about you?

I respect my father too much to even consider fighting him. So, I'll go with either Obama or Bieber.

I want to fight Ezra Klein.

I wonder how many of you have ever been in a real fight that went beyond a push and a couple of half assed punches that miss their mark.
Fights are messy, unpredictable, and suck.
Not at all like on movies and TV.
It really fucking hurts to get punched in the face.
It also sucks if you accidentally hurt someone badly and end up with legal charges.
And if the friend of the person you were beating on comes up from behind and stabs you (real possibility in Latin America or Asia), well, that's not fun either.
Violence is sexualized in our culture, but unlike sex, the reality is not enjoyable.

Floyd Mayweather.
Any radical feminist. I'd like to hear them talk about how men and women aren't biologically different once they're in the ring.

Different versions of myself. 18-year-old version of myself, 23-year-old version of myself, 26-year-old version of myself, etc. etc.
I'd be most interested in fighting a 23-year-old version of myself and a 35 or 40-year-old version of myself.

I'd love to be a leader of some foreign country and have the US president say something in poor taste to my face.
Then I proceed to punch said dofus in the face male or female. Give 'em a black eye.
History would know it as the "black eye" of the American presidency.

Question: Have a lot of you guys thought about fighting/taking on your old man?
I never have, for some reason it can't separate the respect/admiration/gratitude for the man who raised me and just thinking of him as some guy off the street.
A common thought?

I'm with this one. As a teenager I was an intense lunatic that was afraid of no one and would destroy opponents in martial arts sparring. I'd like to be able to fight my 16 year old self vs. my way older, in better shape and more calm self to see if I really was some sort of wild fury machine or just your typical overconfident teenager.
