better boxer?
better athlete? does a kangaroo run faster or have the higher vertical?

Corny.

Change it to kangaroo vs prime Tyson and we got a discussion

I'd say it largely depends on the kangaroo.

Boxers dont usually take kicks too well.

Nate Robinson vs a Kangaroo in basketball?

Those teep kicks from that Roo, tho... and the clinch work. In the back of my mind I always knew they trained Muay Thai.

Have to change it to kickboxing. Could be pretty good, with Nate and the Kangaroo throwing flying kicks at each other.

If you’ve ever seen a red Kangaroo in the outback, you’d know the answer to this.

Only thing Nate be throwing is a farewell party for himself the night before kangaroo **** him up

Haha. Well at least this one's clever.

But you forgot the poll of who would win.

Nate has a chance.

Oh man lol

Truth.

Now you have me giggling imagining Nate getting launched across the ring.

I think we should start smaller. Like "Nate Robinson vs a midget with no arms" and go from there.

Watch on YouTube

Gotta admit... found this fascinating. Couldn't look away.

Kangaroos are an odd animal.

But as noted, terrible in basketball. I wouldn't draft one. The wingspan sucks and the lateral quickness is virtually nonexistent — making them huge liabilities in the playoffs when teams force switches constantly on the hunt for favorable matchups.

Couple years ago I took my kids through the kangaroos exhibit at the Detroit Zoo and it was like a giant orgy in there. Everywhere you looked they were just in all different positions

Looks tough, but that was in his prime. Roger (that was his name) died 2 years ago. This was the last photo taken of him, few days before he was gone:

Still looks something I wouldn't want to be around when angry, but I think it's closer to the shape our retired NBA heroes and amateur brawlers are in.

Kangaroos just know how to party.

HARDEN TO DETROIT CONFIRMED
