Wheeler should be the better fighter as he's a star MMA fighter in his universe but iirc, Hood did some superhuman-ish shit, yeah? Survived hits he shouldn't have, explosions.
Have not watched Kingdom yet, is it good. If it's Banshee/Warrior level will Binge. Off with Covid just as I got over Typhoid, got diagnosed for a second dose of it Sunday. Coughing a little and very tired, sitting in the Garden a lot, the Mrs and the kids tested negative so went straight to my sister in laws. My cook and driver are also positive so are both in the spare room isolating with me rather than going to their families who are negative. They have a bathroom and flat screen TV, its a very big18 by 18 spare room space, which has a privacy curtains and privacy divider down the middle for more than 1 guest, two small double beds and good windows so they are enjoying it really.we are stocked in the freezer. Can't say I'm having fun, just watched Ozarks today which was depressing as ****. So Banshee type shit would be great, remember Hood beat up a world champion mma fighter, a prison champion and held his own against the king of the underground. Only the guys on Warrior and enter the badlands of that kind of genre beat his character shields imho.

Hood wins. Wheeler is more technically skilled but a lot more grounded and realistic when it comes to physicals.
And Kingdom was entertaining enough as a whole, though towards the end, with [SPOILER - highlight to read]: Nate being shot and killed, it was pretty damn depressing.

It's kind of a shame that [SPOILER - highlight to read]: we never got to see a fight between Jay and Ryan when both were at their best. Ryan's knee was injured in the fight Jay won and Jay was out of shape and in mental anguish during their rematch that Ryan won.

It's been a while since I watched it, but didn't that happen [SPOILER - highlight to read]: at a time where Jay had been retired for a couple of months (and doing a real estate gig IIRC) while Ryan had still been actively training and fighting? At the level that professional MMA fighters operate, even just a few months actually makes a big difference.
I'd put Jay as a better striker but Ryan definitely has the superior ground game.

I don't believe Jay was training at the time. Not that I think Jay would have absolutely beat him either had he been training, but I'd bet on it as Jay is a scrapper and a survivor.
