I am well aware of that, but compared to Blanka, who can produce electricity and beat up full grown gorillas and Jaguars, Snake seems most average.
Grey Fox >>>> Gorillas.
That's all I have to say, really.
Besides animals are not smart at all. IMO Blanka beating up animals means nothing in a gaming world where a human being can outrun firepower from Vulcan's minigun.

BS. So we should focus on what? That he can produce electricity? It's not like Snake will be dumb enough to tackle Blanka while he is performing that little stunt. Are you guys forgetting what Snake has accomplished in Twin Snakes? The guy dodges bullets like there's no tomorrow--which speaks of his reaction time. The guy was tortured with electricity, and guess what? He still finished his mission.
Whoa, calm down man, your acting like I said Blanka will curbstomp. I'm aware what Snake can do and, he might win. I'm actually not sure about this match. Also, the reason why we should focus on ability vs fights is because the constant A>B>C logic that's rampant here.

IMO Snake is just being thrown aside because he is not from a fighting game and he is facing off against a SFer. Snake has skills, speed, strength and durability to beat Blanka. The one I'm actually torn with is Paul. You wanna know why? Because Paul, unlike Blanka, has actually proven himself in h2h.
So, pauls fights are generally ambigous, the only real thing fights tell us about a character is how well they can hold up. Ability is more important IMO, and if this becomes another "Who defeated Who" argument, I won't even bother.

And, there very powerful, a lion may not be as intelligent as say a human, but it can certainly kill one easily.

I am a bit annoyed, because if this was, say: "Alex/Ryu/Liu Kang/Terry/Jin Kazama/you name it vs Blanka" no one would dare say Blanka can pull a victory. That's it.

Ambigous or not he has managed to stalemate a non-jobbing Kazuya(it's what I called Tekken 1 Kaz); Jin Kazama; has killed a bear with his fist; and managed to defeat Ogre's first incarnation.
You want to keep ABC out of this, but IMO Paul's record speaks of his fighting skills.

True. However Snake is not a normal human.

True, it does speak for his fighting skills, but if we were hyper focused on win records versus ability. Quite frankly the matches would be terrible, and Jin Kazama & Terry Bogard would be Gods.

Do you beilieve snake can kill a lion with his barehands?

Well, all those fighters are well above Snake. Don't get me wrong, Snakes good and can give some of tose guys a fight, But I don't believe he can beat them soundly. Though, I believe he can beat jin.
Yeah. I did not mean to imply Snake has them beat, but what I'm trying to get at is that neither Jin, Ryu, Terry, etc. have fought gorillas; and yet people will not hesitate to give them the win against blanka. I do think they have him beat, but he can definitely put up a good fight.

Fair enough.

Hard to tell. Would be quite silly of me to say he can when he hasn't done it. However Snake is strong enough to uppercut a man several feet off his..er...feet. Gotta love redundancy. Ahem on topic. Snake has also managed to hurt Grey Fox while he was wearing the exo-skelleton. And as showcased by the youtube clip I posted earlier; the exo-skelleton is quite durable. So...killing lions with barehands? I dunno. He hasn't done it. Is it possible for him to hurt the lion? I suppose so.
Originally posted by Superboy PrimeAt first I couldn't see the video. My bad, I haven't played Metal Gear in a long ass time, maybe Gray Fox is like X Men mutant strong, but Snake is still gonna get is ass electrocuted by Blanka in H2H, unless he has help from Gray Fox.
You'll find out once you press play. What don't know what that is? It's the big button in the middle of the youtube screen. Yes, that one. Press it...don't worry it won't bite.
