Holmes gets his white handkerchief. This is Rocky from Rocky III.

Fight takes place in the streets of LA.

Oh man.

This was a previous thread that went on for about 23 pages. People were arguing that, despite Holmes obvious edge in skill and speed, Rocky could tank anything he threw at him.

Rocky 3 was way too fast for Holmes, man.

Seriously? Proof?

Proof? His second fight with Lang.

This shit has already been beaten in to the f*cking ground.

Can't wait 'till Imp closes it.

That showed speed equal to or greater than Holmeses?

what difference does it make how strong or fast holmes is? every single one of the opponents that rocky's beaten are faster and stronger than him. he wins anyway though...

Yeah, Holmes does win. And while Rocky's opponents are bigger and faster than him, none of them are as fast as Holmes, and none of them have knowledge of the human body that Holmes demonstrated. He also knew how to read peoples movements extremely well.

You saw Sherlock Holmes correct? How fast he was in conjunction to his opponents, how they had to slow the screen down so people could follow him? Where in the video was that type of speed shown?

Mhm. One guy he realized dude had a hearing impairment. The other? He fought him a while, got a feel for the way he fights.

The entire thing.

Rocky took 1250 psi punches from Drago, punches that would turn a regular man into mush.

Holmes would just pop his ear drums, hit him in the crotch, etc....

Didn't I already make this?

Balboa wouldn't beat dredger. He is tough,but not that tough.

Horseshit, Rocky would KO the shit outta Dredger.

i doubt it.

Yes, KO him hard.

balboa would utterly slaughter anyone in Sherlock holmes universe

The fact that Holmes couldn't put Dredger down shows how overrated Holmes is. Balboa would bust Dredgers shit up. The Pikey would break Dredgers neck with one punch.

Holmes wasn't known for his strength was he? And he didn't try to use his mind to take down Dredger, that was the whole point of the scene.

Balboa destroys Dredger.
Pikey destroys Dredger.

Balboa doesn't beat dredger. His usual method of letting the crap get beaten out of him first KILLS him in this instance.

This version, Rocky 3, is all offense. He'll KO Dredger in a round or two.

From what we saw onscreen, Dredger doesn't actually seem to get hurt by physical beating. He appears immune to it. (gets hit with a hammer and doesn't leave a mark.) He can only be chocked into submission. from behind.

just like that, but rocky had help.

Dredger did not seem immune to pain, he just had major damage soak.

which is really the main thing balboa was good at.

Mhm, and the fact that Balboa is way too fast and is.....you know.....the heavyweight champion and stuff.....
