Shaolin Monks vs MMA fighters

Who do you reckon will win ?
They say Shaolin monks have great feats ie breaking metal etc able to take a lot of pain ie hitting their heads with hard objects etc.
But reckon they(Shaolin monks) can get out of a grapple, grab take down or tackle from a wrestler/MMA fighter or person twice their size ?

MMA fighters no contest.

true disadvantage the Shaolin monks have is they cant grapple and wrestle , they have no form of defence or attack against it... They will have to pretty much keep distance etc..

True disadvantage is sticking a spear in your neck doesn't help check leg kicks, knees, elbows or a good old fashioned punch in the face.

leaning on a spear stuck in your neck isn't really using weapons. It's vaudeville.

Sorry mate I don’t follow you , what exactly are you trying to get at ? What is this particular move ? What’s leaning on a stick got to do with anything ?

Shaolin monk..depending on the monk of course. Many of them are more about meditation than h2h

you've clearly never seen a shaolin monk live show like "wheel of life".

Yeah I haven’t seen them in real life but I have seen the stuff they do in shows via vids etc . Sorry I know what you mean now by the spear thing and all there other acrobatic stuff . Thing is that’s just a pain endurance feat .. it won’t help In an actual fight .. Shaolin kungfu isn’t as versatile as MMA and jeet kundo. Even Bruce lee criticised their fighting style ... how will the Shaolin monk get out of a grapples and take downs and other wrestling mma type wrestling moves and tactics etc

A monk from D&D would win.

Cool mate i respect what you say I’m not trying to argue here but want to kindly ask how will the Shaolin monks in your perspective be able to get out of grapples and other MMA wrestling type traps movements from men twice their size or even range etc ?

A shaolin monks chi blasts should do it!

Plus their hits count as enchanted weapons.

Even using proper weight divisions, so a 125lbs Shaolin monk isn't going up against a 220lbs MMA heavy weight, I'd say your top ranked MMA fighter could beat your best Shaolin practitioner across every weight division.

In a Octagon or in a no-holds-barred street fight?

Shaolin Monk either way - if it's a street fight, then then Shaolin Monk kills the MMA fighter in a matter of seconds.

Brazilian Jujitsu is derived Jujitsu, which is derived from Shaolin Kung Fu.

Shaolin Monks have many technique defenses against grappling and could even kill the MMA fighter easily in the process.

They invented the precursors to these artforms.

All Shaolin Monks are about H2H - that's the point of Shaolin Kung Fu.

Most other (Non-Shaolin) Buddhist Monks are about meditation and not H2H.

But yes, a fully-trained Shaolin Monk would destroy any MMA fighter.
