Steven Segal vs Chuck Norris

If they fought in their prime, who would win? Would you PPV @ $50 to watch?

If they fought today, Segal (60) vs Norris (72) who would win? Would you PPV @ $50 to watch?

Considering Seagal has now reached his 'Fat Elvis' days, I'd go with Chuck Norris.

Chuck Norris in the past and present! They are both heavily trained in martial arts but two very different styles I would go Chuck Norris he was trained by Bruce Lee so that in its self is enough for victory.

It's good to be home.

I couldn't watch the fight today, I think it would be too painful. Would have liked to see it in their prime though.

Steven Segal wears Chuck Norris pajamas! While eating cookies in bed.

Wherever you are, there you be!

Chuck Norris is just John Simon's human alter-ego.

Seagal uses Aikido. Aikido's core tenet is to not injure your opponent.

Chuck Norris founded his own fighting style, Chun Kun Do. No contest.

Even Jean Claude Van Damme, whose training included ballet and gymnastics, could kick Seagal's ass.

^^^^^ Van Damme was a black belt in Karate. While Segal was a 7th degree black belt in Aikido as well as the first non Japanese operator of an aikido dojo in Japan.

Segal had 6" height and probably 70 lb weight advantage on Van Damme... I beg to differ.

newsarasotabcg- Seagal uses Aikido. Aikido's core tenet is to not injure your opponent.

Can you give me a link to that? I am not going to flat out say you are wrong but I have my doubts about your comment. I have been teaching forms of self defense that derive from Aikido. I assure you that many techniques using your opponents body weight against them and manipulating them with joint locks, are not pain free or injury free. The training I received to be an instructor accepts an injury rate at 10%, meaning that there is a very high likelihood that 10% of your class will receive some sort of injury while going through the two week certification. That being said Aikido is very useful against an untrained assailant but I wonder how useful it is against a skilled attacker. I can't believe I am actually answering this question, I fully thought to avoid this subject all together but somehow I am compelled. In the world of MMA anything can happen during any given fight (Look at Kimbo Slice vs.Seth Petruzelli 2:30 mark http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkcDks1kLl4) but my money is with the guy that made an name for himself in actual competition. The immortal Chuck Norris.

I don't always take names when I kick ass but when I do, they most often belong to a Wolverine.

Irricoir -

google Aikido. There are any number of websites that attest to Aikido being so far removed from most other forms of martial arts in that injuring your opponent is discouraged.

1. '"To control aggression without inflicting injury is the Art of Peace," was once said by Ueshiba (founder of Aikido). This sentence seems to encompass both aikido's physical and philosophical teachings.' - http://martialarts.about.com/od/styles/a/aikido.htm

2. 'Ueshiba's goal was to create an art that practitioners could use to defend themselves while also protecting their attacker from injury.' - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aikido

As for Van Damme vs Seagal, I'd still take Van Damme and just about any other martial arts actor over Seagal. Leg sweep and down goes Seagal. But that's just my opinion. FWIW, I would pay to Van Damme vs. Seagal.
