Leonidas or some other Spartan of the 300 that faced a couple of hundred thousand Persians at Thermopylae and lasted for a week. Though they fought with Corinthian, Athenian and a few other allies in the last few days the allies left to shore up greece's defences.

The last few days it was only the spartans, they ended up using broken swords and their hands and teeth in the final hours. It is estimated that they killed anywheres from ten to twenty thousand (some estimate more but I can't see it) enemy soldiers.

I am sure that any of these 300 would wipe the floor with any current UFC fighter, boxer or movie martial arts star.

On their terms yes.However,under ufc rules with no weapons I say not

bas is a tough sob too

Bas drops people with liver kicks like nothing.I got his big dvds of combat and let me tell you,he IS the man.

The question was "Greatest fighter ever".

Spartans recieved greco roman wrestling training from the age of seven. They were also taught hand to hand combat in case they ever lost their weapons. In truth they were the first Utlimate Fighters or mma fighters. They boxed (bare knuckled) and as mentioned before wrestled. They would never submit, and never retreat. I love NHB tournament stuff, but pound for pound I'd give it to a spartan any day of the week.

i have been thinking about getting some of his dvds

Im not sure if Archilles was a legend or not, but theres a lot of myth around his abilities.

Aka he was dipped into this mixture to make him invincable, and they held onto him by the backs of his ankles, which ended up not getting touched by the liquid.

so the backs of his ankles became his weak spot. He got a spear through the back of his ankle and he died. This is where we get the term "archilles heel" from

He was real, and so great that he became a myth...

Thats saying a lot for him... He really was a great fighter.

I seriously doubt that any modern fighter could any one of them out... Those guys are great fighters in and out of war. They were fearless more then willing to die if it was needed and would do whatever they could to win. I would rather face any modern fighter in a one on one fight to the death then even one of those guys

I think I would too.I've herd people where stronger back then,but I dont think we have like any win lose draw records for any of them do we?

No lose meant death, victory meant living for another day to fight again

I definetly think they where tough,but I still think todays fighters could take out a good deal of them within ufc rules

With rules sure, but those guys didn't fight with rules... They threw themselves into a fight gave it everything they had, had amazing discipline and courage. They were incredibly powerful trained from birth and fought impossible odds at several occasions and survived. There is a reason for them being so legendaric.

I agree with for the most part.However,most the time legend is born from myth.

wait I change my answer.....BOW DOWN BEFORE JPLATINUM!

😂 😂 😂

I agree!
