For those of you in the fluther community who is heavy into the martial arts, who do you think is better Steven Seagal who is a master of Aikido or Chuck Norris who is a master of Tang-Soo-Doo and is older? If the two got in a martial arts fight who would win?

I’m gonna go with Seagal mainly because I find Norris a bit annoying.

Seagal looks like a bloated fart wearing a ponytail & as for Norris, well…least said the better.
Bruce Lee rocks, end of.

Neither can act worth spit, but Norris wins the Oscar for Lifetime Cardboard Acting Achievement! I kinda liked Seagal in a few of his early movies but never considered watching them anything but a guilty pseudo-pleasure.

Seagal has better hair.

Much as I hate their politics, and hate Norris’s even more, Norris has the edge. By being shorter, and leaner, he can move inside Seagall’s Hutt like exterior. But it will take quite a few kick s to have an impact on Seagall, because he has such cetacean cushioning.

Chuck Norris seems to have all the advantages here. Neither can rely on the resiliency of youth, which is only so useful in the first place. But Norris has been training longer and has more diversity in his training, both of which are of enormous benefit—especially between two practiced fighters. Plus there’s the fact that Norris has stayed fitter than Seagal. Bruce Lee was always scathing about what he called “big-bellied masters,” especially when it came to the combat applications of martial arts. Seagal may be in better shape than many his age and size, but that won’t be good enough to give him the edge against Norris.

Aikido is a defensive art. The offense is Hollywood.

Norris wins in a fight… Unless shooting is involved, as Seagal is an expert marksman in real life.
