Had SW hit the breaks, there would have been no cutting.
So like I said, BB taking out Devastator who was about three times his size using a combo of punches, knees, kicks, body-throws and guns (ala McClane) shows he is by far the better fighter. Skinning the cat in the middle of that fight just adds to BB's bad-assery.
Edit: To Sadako's point, SS is spindlely; more-so than BB.
Dude, Devastator was rubbish, it couldn't even handle the twins. It was a big ass fat man weezing for air. All BB did was put it out of it's misery, SS woulda killed it faster and more efficiently.
And yes, Sideswipe jumps OVER the car (MUCH higher than BB can jump, he was at least 40 feet high), THROWS his blade in the hood, lands, then bisects it. Don't bring physics into this, dont try and downplay the badassness of that feat.
SS is faster, far more agile than BB, plus he has his guns to fall back on. If it goes CQC, SS's blades will do far more damage than BB's h2h, any fool can realize that.
