Big Boss vs Solid Snake

Or do normal people survive a large machine they're in blowing up?

Or a fall from several stories?

Or in completely exposed Alaskan cold with no shirt and their body riddled with injuries?

Yeah...Liquid is not freaky at all.

Solid Snake had a short encounter with him, and he literally got pawned in it.

Yeah, but who wouldn't? He couldn't see him, and got the drop on him. He was forced to enter to save Raiden's ass.

As we saw Raiden take out Vamp in direct combat, it's safe to say Snake could as well. (Not saying you're saying he couldn't however)

Remember that it's not only the people they face that equals how good they are. I've yet to see Big Boss jump over missiles, dodge bullets that have already been fired (meaning he dodges in over the speed of sound to get away), as well as jumping several meters up in the air.

Big Boss is good, but I doubt he compares to that. Besides, Gray Fox as how he was in MGS one as a cyborg ninja rapes Null, and Big Boss barley defeated Null. It was even stated he couldn't take him in direct combat but needed to utilize his experience and the terrain.

...But then again it can be argued that Solid Snake's encounter with Cyborg Ninja is full of Plot/Character Induced Stupidity.

Well, I don't see why. The Snake's, both Big Boss and Solid, have shown to handle those with ridicilously faster speed than them (Gene and Null for Big Boss, running man and Fox for Solid), I don't see why that would be the case. Snake's reflexes and his own speed should be well enough to dodge any attack really.....

Anyway, as I said, I haven't seen enough to put Big Boss on par with Solid. Not only has Solid already won as a rookie against Big Boss twice (once unarmed vs Biggy with a machine gun, while he just before fought Fox unarmed and being burnt so much that he had to remove every item on his entire body), but he has shown physical feats on the super human level, something Big Boss hasn't.

True Snake beat Big Boss as a rookie...but really Big Boss was way past his prime. And for this battle that is irrelevant since Big Boss is in his prime.

True. Twin Snakes is just too powerful a source of feats for Solid Snake.

Oh I agree, he was past his prime. However, this was before Snake's prime as well, he was very inexperienced, while Big Boss was more experienced. And Biggy was still in great physical shape, it's said in the game.
However, I guess it doesn't totally fill the fact. I'd say a Big Boss pretty out of shape doesn't exactly equal an inexperienced Solid Snake. But yeah....

Yeah, agreed. Twin Snake's FTW. 😛
