It's either:
Russian Roulette
3 Minutes in a ring with a prime Mike Tyson and he's trying to kill you

I chose Tyson, but I've trained BJJ/Wrestling for 9+ years now, 6'3", 195lbs. Where do you guys stand on this one?


Prime Mike Tyson? I'd have to Russian Roulette. Though I agree a sufficiently trained / in-shape grappler should go with Tyson.

1 bullet/6 chambers? Maybe the right choice for you. But I'd give Tyson more than 1/6 of hitting you with a lead left. At which point, you're dead.

I am definitely choosing RR...as someone who is 6'1'', 155 pounds, and was recently kimura'd by a grocery bag.


:lol: :lol: :lol:

I think I would just freaking pull guard. Tyson was so explosive but untrained on G&P that it would be unnatural to him.

I might go Tyson but I'm 100% going down the Chael route of just holding on for dear life.

Unless you have skills that's not going to work.

I don't want to do the Russian Roulette so I have to fight Tyson. I'm definitely not standing with Tyson because that's his game so I'm going to try and grapple with him with what minimal skills I do have

I couldn't do Russian Roulette so I'd go Tyson as well. I'm a lot smaller than susan though, honestly think my strategy would be to literally run for the three minutes. Any chance we could get this in a cage? The big cage, ideally. Maybe the circle cage with no corners?

Ideal scenario is he puts too much into a punch and armdrags himself and now you're on his back. Worst case scenario...you dead.

I mean that'd be my plan against current Tyson. Against prime Tyson I'm extremely doubtful it would work.
