John McClane vs Rocky Balboa: Bloody Knuckles Contest

Started by Sadako of Girth7 pages

18 rounds in at least 12oz padded gloves.
As I said earlier, Rocky's hands are likely smashed to dust from age and action. Fact: Rocky's defense was shit, Quan and if anyone was the professional punching bag: It was actually Rocky, who's strategy was: "Go the distance and hang on whilst having the shit punched out of him, until the other guy is exhausted before making the capitalising flurry". This is why you fail/cry.

Rocky went the distance against professional boxers. McClane would use weapons and get his ass flat out beat in a fight. Rocky also beat Clubber Lang in a few rounds. Watch the movies, Bing tourist.

depends on which film. he had a terrific defense in the 2nd clubber lang fight (courtesy of cocaine and steroids)

Lol, are people actually arguing for McClane here?

Guess you've never heard of a boxer named Muhammad Ali.

He looks like Will Smith.

You do know that those gloves don't do anything to cushion force, right?

Balboas defense doesn't have any relevance here. If anything his lack of defense goes towards his advantage because if he had displayed better defensive skills over his career he wouldn't have endured as much punishment.

Ivan Drago man...,Ivan drago

Sadako is actually arguing against McClane here and doesn't even realize it. Spot on.

I don't know how well this information transfers to boxers, but kung fu practitioners strike hard targets with their fingertips, blatantly fracturing them so they reform to become harder. They're actually able to stab you with their bare hands because of this.

Rocky's experience more closely resembles this, so you may want to consider it.

Lol, oh the nuthuggery.

I guess its official that McClane loses.

Anybody who thinks otherwise is either a fool or a coward.

Bullshit. Rocky took Drago's punches while McClane was beaten by a girl.

Nope. This isn't a boxing match, which I would give to Rocky all in all.

But if you want to go the 'who has the greater durability' path, then McClane >>>>> Rocky by a landslide. Rocky can take a ridiculous amount of punishment in a boxing match. McClane has survived instances that would liquify a human body with little more than scraps and cuts.

Rocky did just fine in a street fight. He seems to do wonderfully when the rules are off.

Well....

Sadako is probably the most experienced boxer posting in this thread. He probably knows exactly what he is talking about.

That's one match and there was nothing 'super' about it.

Once again you dodge my points and do your usual clown-dance, which consist of copying what others have called you 🙂

Have you even watched DH5 yet? I doubt it.

Does DH 5 retcon the other DHards. I don't think so but feel free to clear the air.

No. This is about them trading punches and seeing who lasts the longest. Rocky has shown damage soak via punches to the face that is light years beyond what McClane's damage soak via punches to the face is.

Also, Rocky has shown punching ability that is far stronger than anything McClane can muster. It's not even close.

Also, Rocky never lost to a girl.

Rocky one punch KO's McClane. Accept it.

Indeed. Just saves the hands from being broken, along with the wraps, but you still feel and injuries can still occur. And as I said the sum of work the hands are put through in training over the years and the bouts themselves leave guys with arthritis and loads of microfracture (or outright fracture in cases) damage all taking their toll...and Rocky is ancient..

Yes.
