Jet Li vs. Dolph Lundgren - Who Would Win?

[Emmet J]

I'm having a debate on another (non-MMA) forum. It started off about The Expendables 2 and then degenerated into this nonsense. Now I live in the North West, but some of the people on this other forum live in fantasy land. So, I put it to you experts of all things gladitorial:

Who would win a fight (now) between Jet Li and Dolph Lundgren?

[boxingbrit]

Dolph is too old now

[Emmet J]

He's 54. Li is 48.

[boxingbrit]

You think Dolph would take it?

I thought Li was much younger. You know them chinks, he will suddenly age 50 yrs when he hits the big 5 0

[MrHillman]

am with Dolph....


If he dies....he dies.....

[Zanmato]

has Jet Li ever entered into any full contact sports before? or does he do sort of cinematic martial arts? i would go for Dolph on the basis that he is much bigger, and had a real boxing match against Oleg Taktarov. He apparently smashed Sly during the making of Rocky IV as well.

[boxingbrit]

He was also a full contact heavyweight kyokushinkai champ for years i believe. But Jet Li is fast

[Zanmato]

it would be like Hong-man Choi v Kaoklai Kaennorsing at K-1 in Seoul..

Dolph used to go out with Grace Jones... Jet Li v Grace Jones, now there's a fight

[boxingbrit]

I wouldnt fight Grace Jones.

[MrHillman]

would you sleep with it...i mean her....for 50 grand?.......obviously, if you didnt have a far superior missus....so, for this pretend you aint got one ;)

[Emmet J]

My assessment is:

Li is about 5'6, weighs 125 pounds and about 30 years ago was well trained in pretending to fight bigger people (he is a champion of non-contact Wushu). Now he just pretends to fight on screen.

Lundgren is about 6'4, weighs 230 pounds and about 30 years ago was well trained in the one of the only styles of Karate that has any kind of validity as a fighting art (Kyokushin). Now he just pretends to fight on screen.

Based on both their training experiences and the tale of the tape, I'm confident that Lundgren would win this.

[boxingbrit]

Sober no, my problem is i would probably wake up with it for the price of a bottle of Grey Goose:(

[fightpride]

Dolph was european knockdown karate champion.. I'd bet on him!

[Zanmato]

would i have to put much effort into making sure she enjoyed it? or could i just peel my boxers to the ankles and rabbit away drunkenly until i got mine, then leave? for £50,000 i would do it anyway, but christ that would be a scary time

You wouldn't survive, she's like a preying mantis!

[blackdogmma]

i cant even believe this is a real thread, shame on you fellow cagewarriorites!!!! Dolph has competition experience, live training against resisting opponents.

Li is an actor.

The only time Li wins this is in a movie.

A Bad one.

[Zanmato]

of course i do.. with my face on the pillow so i don't have to look at her big fat face for good measure, but you never know when a lady might stumble into this thread and suddenly have the sex-machine image that spills from every post i make cruelly shattered

[cobramma]

dolph wud kick jet lei ass big style he wud batter van dam aswell but if u put chuck norris into he wud kick all there asses and for grace jones i wud do her for some nandos chicken and blackpool rock lol

[Torre]

Dolph, obviously.

[boxingbrit]

If Bruce hadnt died he would beat them all. Even at 71 yrs old

[Leesin]

Bruce would have killed them before they even hit the floor.

[Nathan_Court]

i know nothing of their experience off screen so i am making the choice of Jet Li just for the fact that Jet Li in Unleashed > Dolph Lundgren in Rocky IV
