Putin is a huge judo player. The guy has even written books on the subject. I give fights to him.

In a street fight? Putin for sure, not even close. IIRC, he has blackbelt in martial art.

One on one BB? I put my money on BO.

Putin is a scary guy and I have every confidence he's killed men before. He would dominate Obama in a fight despite the President's admirable physical fitness. Obama would kick his butt on a basketball court as long as unlimited fouls were not allowed. Obama could actually dunk as a younger man and I think he still plays often.

Putin would fuck up Obama in a street fight.

But Obama would run circles around Putin in basketball. Look at Putin - his face and the way he walks looks like he has had a stick up his ass since the fall of the Soviet Union --> now tell me, what person can effectively play basketball with a stick in his ass?

Well if it is after the fight, then I can see it happening. It's hard to play basketball with 2 broken arms, 2 broken legs, a broken nose, shattered jaw, and a broken neck.

We'll use the current set of NBA rules...if you accidentally breath too close to a player, its a foul.

As ex-KGB agent Putin is trained as a killer. If he didn't still work out a lot it might be closer, but he's still in decent condition.

he's got a big-ass belly now, though. But I bet he'd still take out Obama 1v1.

Then, of course, Obama's pipe-swinging homies would show up at Putin's door for a little retaliation.

I am pretty confused how anybody could have rationally picked Obama over Putin in a fight.

Hell if anything George H. Bush would be a better match verses Putin.
