Imagine if both Obama & Romulus had to fist-fight Putin

Last edited Thu Aug 23, 2012, 09:12 PM - Edit history (1)

Imagine there is a secret meeting where both candidates must fist-fight.

1. Obama vs Putin
2. Romney vs Putin

I imagine the Obama vs Putin fight to be a very dignified but serious affair. Obama is a fierce competitor with sharp elbows. He'd put up a great fight against the older, but very well-trained KGB villain from some 70's movie. Putin would probably wear Obama down and then win on technical points. They'd respectfully shake hands.

Romney would start by kneeing Putin in the balls "accidentally." He would then stop the fight and begin a long rant about the rules being unfair. Putin would respond with a Cold War stare. When the fight restarts, I'd imagine Putin (black belt) slamming Romney on the ground. Romney would react with biting and poking of the eyes. Romney would invariably call for a time-out and make demands for why the fight must be rescheduled...

Let's be honest here. He's a real deal KGB trained killer. Obama is a skinny wonkish bookworm and Romney has probably never been punched in the face once in his pampered life. Putin would eat them for breakfast.

And in fairness to our President, he's apparently a very physical competitor in sports.

He certainly doesn't like confrontation that much. I think Romney, being a rich dude, would pay someone to fight for him in his place, a champion, much like the kings did in the past.

He's non-confrontational.

I'm saying both his political nerve and his reported sports attitude suggest otherwise.

judo or boxing. This isn't Obama's kahuna. He would not participate in such a contest with Putin. Putin on the other hand being ex-KGB would challenge him to a duel probably, which Obama would decline. However, he might suggest a game of hoops with perhaps a deciding free throw if they were negotiating something.
