Can the two asian power-houses take down the insane bat-training ?

Location : Empty Field (1 mile by 1 mile)

Stipulations : Tim!Robin , purely h2h , no CIS , No PIS.

Who wins ?

The Pict
Robin will probably win, Jet Li has said that he would lose fights to guys that he beats up in movies, if they were fighting in real life.

No, but it was in the DVD extras from that movie. He was talking about the cage fighters, saying that if he was really fighting them he'd lose.

Maybe he was just being modest, I don't know srug

Tony Jaa is absolutely nuts, but most of the shit he does is just for show.

So like Jackie Chan huh ?

Jet Li is more about combat choreography than actual fighting. He's actually more of a dancer and he loses to Robin.
On the contrary, Bruce Lee is great fighter who actually has superb fighting skills, he's a Jet Kun Do founder. The only thing which can come against him there is his small stature (152 cm or 5 feet). Actually I can see him beating Robin.
But Jet Li...he's even not a true fighter so he loses to RObin most probably.

batdude123
Bruce Lee isn't defeating a comic book martial artist.

grey fox
Ok then let's replace Jet Li with Steven Seagal.

I'm pretty sure SS is an actual fighter....

TricksterPriest
Actually Tony Jaa was a better idea. He actually is an expert in Muay Thai and Muay Korat.

batdude123
And none of them are going to be able to beat the leader of the Titans.

Charlotte DeBel
Steven Seagal is pretty slow and lacking grace to my taste, but he's actually a black belt in aikido and deserves to replace Jet Li. Aikidoka against a mobile figher who's Robin isn't a major factor...though Bruse Lee has all chances to deal with Robin.
With his small stature Bruce was able to THROW big guys across the ring with punches etc and that wasn't movie special effects. He's a founder of Jet Kun Do, which is pretty cool martial art to my taste (though two of my favourite characters use personalized versions of that martial art, so...).

Agree. Seagal is slower...though if he manages to catch Robin, his irimi nagi is going to give some punishment to nasty boy.

Anyways - is this Jet Li/Bruce Lee/Tony Jaa/Jackie Chan/Steven Seagal/WHOEVER in their real life versions or film versions?

Film versions could most definitely throw down with Robin. Real life versions, however, most certainly could not.

Robin would trounce them both at the same time.

Comic-book street-levelers are simply superhuman in the real world. They have the stamina, strength, agility and endurance to perform acts of athleticism and skill that's simply not possibly in our world.

Sure, a person can do a triple somersault....if he's well-rested and pumped.

Robin? The kid only gets three hours of sleep per night and can some how jump of a roof, perform a dizzying array of acrobats, use extreme martial arts to kick the turd out of a gang of supervillains and swing away completed unexhausted to do it again and again for the rest of the night. Even an Olympic level athlete cannot perform such a feat. They would drop from exhaustion.

Not to mention the sheer number of times Robin has dodged bullets and laser-beams. A normal human being, even an exceptional one, cannot continually dodge a flurry of bullets from a machine gun, much less ONE bullet from a gun. Even well trained soldiers cannot do such a thing.

Robin is a comic book martial artist ....no real-world martial artist would be able to defeat him (or for that matter come close to defeating him), and most movie-depictions of martial artists also wouldn't be able to do anything (most ....because some, like Jet Li's depiction in 'The One,' can definitely beat him).

The only way they can approach Robin is if you were to 'comic-ize' them ....i.e. turning them into comic characters.

In that case Bruce Lee would easily be 'comicized' into a Shang Chi/Richard Dragon type of character (and he was probably part of the inspiration), in which case he would wipe the floor with Robin.

But Bruce Lee the man would lose to Robin the comic character. Bruce Lee, as a comic characterization, would win against Robin.

Bruce Lee has inspired a great deal of fictional martial artists. That means that putting some of those inspirations\fictional Jet Kun Do users there will make the thread more...interesting.

I'm not sure whether Shang Chi or Iron Fist are clearly homages to Bruce Lee, but I can give you a character who uses a personalized version of Jet Kun Do and who clearly beats Robin in pure h2h without PIS.

But if you wish to talk about direct homages, not just fictional Jet Kun Do practicioners...the one that springs to my mind is Kenshiro.

More like an Iron Fist with pyrokinesis powers instead of mystical chi. Though some chi-related stuff is present, but that's just the usual chi of high level fighter.

Bruce Lee is a founder of actual martial art- Jet Kun Do (there are plenty of fictional Jet Kun Do practioners, and my whitehaired favourites (K' and Dante) are some of them. Unlike Seagul, Bruce never relied on stuntmen in his movies...and to speak francly, movie career even decreased his fighting ability- he has to develop big biceps to look cool on screen, while in reality developed biceps only decrease the force of hits, slowing down the movement of hand (that's why lifting feats aren't major to martial artists- they don't work on developing their biceps too much since that group of muscles isn't too useful in actual fighting).

And some of comics book "feats" like dodging bullets (bullets, not even shots) via somersaluts are just cool looking PIS...not to mention it being stupid. Roll is much better way to get out of the line of fire than somersalut. Somersaluts (be it double or triple) are cool in parcour and acrobatical shows, not in actual fighting.

Charlotte DeBel
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Lee

That's Wiki, but still...I'd advice you to check the links in "Physical feats" part- all of those feats were performed in real life, not in movies...no "smoke, mirrors and special effects" there. Though the part about Lee's fighting scanes being recorded in slow motion is a fact, not an urban legend and can be proven by sources other than Wiki.

Charlotte DeBel
By the way, people, I'm sorry that I lied you accidentaly about Bruce Lee's stature. He's 170 cm tall (according to Wiki), not 152 cm tall (as a friend of mine told me).

Though I imagine Rashad Evans will in October. Provided it doesn't get changed or Tito bitches out.

I hope Evans kill him. Ortiz ruined Jenna Jameson for which there is no penalty harsh enough. Hopefully David Ortiz shows up with a baseball bat.

You went too far, I suppose. Basically replaying a "corpse joke" from many Captain America threads.
"You put Robin against a dead corpse and a dancer (Jet Li is more about combat choreography than actual fighting)..." and blah blah blah.

As for comicsizing Bruce, if you really want "dodging bullets in a fancy way" stuff...well, there are a lot of direct homages to Lee and indirect ones (fictional Jeet Kune Do practicioners), some of which (like Kenshiro) would kill not only Robin, but also Batman as well.
