So yeah Van Zan kinda was actually.

So no he doesn't win.

Zan was trying to lead him not kill him but had they not broken it up he wouldn't have stopped until death. The man's a psycho.

He wins since McClane needs luck to beat a woman despite having a gun on her.

Thats your speculation unbacked by screenfeats though, isn't it.

Not needed. Probably not even utilised in that encounter, which he won in all definitions of the word in true McStyle..

It happened on screen I didn't imagine it hence I am right and you are wrong. Just take the McLoss and move on.

Altering quotes won't save you from Zan's headbutts.

Well judging by what we've seen of his headbutts, just standing there totally unguarded and taking one of his totally ineffective headbutts directly in the face from him would be enough to 'save me', since they don't damage anyone, and anything he'd do would just be loud posing. His grunts and posturing would do nothing to me, and since he is so slow, you'd see anything he was about to try to do to you six months in advance of action. Easily avoided. 🙂

It sure seemed to have an effect on Quinn. He wasn't trying to kill Quinn there he was still trying to talk to him. He wasn't in kill mode yet. Lucky for Quinn they pulled him off.

Quinn was almost totally unaffected.
As evidenced by his having to be stopped from going in to end Van Zan when he was shouting threats to kill Van Zan, as well as the fact that Van Zan was the one leaving the fight with blood coming from his mouth for the Quinnwin.

So really, when you look at it, Quinn would probably be a better opponent for John. Zan "no-sold a sucker punch", but Quinn no-sold an entire beatdown and was still pumped for action

Zan wasn't trying to kill him then. He was simply laughing off his attacks but had he not been pulled off Zan wouldn't have stopped. The guy is a real animal unlike McClane who is absued by women.

Zan wasn't trying to beat him down at that point. He wanted him all fiery and to lead him. I suggest watching the movie before making absurd points.

I suggest watching the movie before stealing other posters arguments 😉

Ho ho ho Yeah right. McClane is abused by women until he says "enough of this kung fu shit" then kos them then finally ends them.

Headbutts should still be damaging as should fist attacks to the face and Van Zan demonstrated cotton candy 'abilities' in both departments. That would be woefully inadequate against McClane.
He was all noise and way too slow too. So nope....
Total mismatch in favour of McClane. McGame, McSet, McMatch.
Has been from scratch.

I own the movie and you have always been wrong. Just stay out of Zan's threads you're too biased.

Until they turn around and figure he won't attack them like a woman by ripping out their hairy and trying to claw out their eyes.

Zan won't stop until McClane is dead. McClane needs women to lay off to get back into the fight.

First off, I don't even like McClane so there is no "bias". Second off, I'm basing my inference after what I clearly viewed in the fight scene. You're the one praising Zan's headbutts like they can break diamond and then attributing their one showing, in which they did nothing to "Oh, he was just testing him" 😮

I didn't say they break diamonds they do affect his opponents though. He doesn't headbutt to make his opponent feel good and it's already been established women can dominate John McClane in a fight.

Zan wouldn't last against her either

He would own her and quite easily. Quit trying to change the topic just because McClane was beaten down by her.

Points to Zan's fight. Points to McClane's fights. Chuckles.
