Denton Van Zan (Reign of Fire) vs. John McClane

It's no argument that had the fight continued Zan would have eventually beat Quinn into unconsciousness, but the fact that Quinn no sold multiple punches to the face and stomach and a headbutt and came up not only barely scratched, but still vigorous says something about Zan's hitting power, which does have quite a bit of relevance in this fight

We see Quinn being manhandled. I mean he a cheapshot didn't affect him so it's pretty clear how that fight was going to end.

Quinn was manhandled because he was both an average guy and Van Zan probably had 15 kilos on him. So Van Zan can take one punch from an average guy, hardly something to boast about.

Certainly not in the face of McDurability.

Or it says something about Quinn as an opponent. Ive always been a glass if half full kind of guy. There's nothing to suggest he's only slightly above average especially considering he defeats the alpha male dragon.

Firing a crossbow has nothing to do with his street-fighting skills, clown.

This from a guy who berates or decries McClane for using his environment to settle fights quickly....

Robtard is right. No weapon McClane used was so pre-prepared pre-meditated and elaborate as that. His usual best weapon is improvisation.

So anyone with a crossbow can defeat any dragon ?

You could at least try to debate instead of using logical fallacy after logical fallacy, clown.

Firing a crossbow doesn't have anything to do with being good at street-fighting. Accept that your point failed and gracefully move on.

I never said that it did but nothing in the movie has pointed in the general direction of him being average at anything.

Considering fighting skill is something that matters here, you indeed did imply that. Anyhow, your tactics grow tiresome.

If you would just bother to detach your lips from Van Zan's penis long enough to watch his fight with Quinn, you would see neither of them did anything particularly special above schoolyard scruffs. It was one bigger kid beating on the smaller for a bit and both being fine after.

Hahahaaa. "respect each other", they had recently met, STFU and stop making shit up.

Screen showings > your Van Zan fantasies of the fight. Just try to remove your mouth from the Zan-penis, K?

Can somebody just post McClane's fight scenes so we can end this?

How is this thread still alive?

People have done so a few times; it doesn't stop Quanchi ranting though.

Seriously guys, stop feeding him.

I can't help it. Boards have been somewhat boring since RJ left and Quan seems to be eager to fill the void so I'm letting him have at it. i'm sorry you guys are caught in the crossfire 😄

You posted a woman disarming and kicking his ass. Then the only way he comes out on top is he cheapshots her from behind after she tossed him all over the room. The funniest part is he tried shooting her during his fight. This fight absolutely proves McClane gets dominated. Thanks for the assist. 🙂
