    Assuming that's a joke. Just like Steven Seagal. Gene Lebell made him **** his pants literally when they had a little exhibition fight.

    Trying to use a takedown on Foreman would be suicide.

    Look at how Wesley Snipes and Mike Tyson turned out

    Aikido is not MMA. Trying to punch an aikidoku would be suicide.

    That story has never been confirmed; there has been a lot of rumor and hearsay regarding that. It might have happened, it might not have happened.
    Seagal is an arrogant guy, no doubt, but he is dangerous. Plus, I think he outweighs George nowadays.

    I think the real question to be answered in this thread is "Could Seagal take Scott Thompson if props are allowed?" I think that is what Seamus was trying to get to, in his convoluted way.

    No sane man would pick a former champion with a documented record (who specialized in beating up highly trained professional athletes in a combat sport) over a guy who made lackluster action movies.

    Seagal TKO1 Foreman (pinkie lock).

    standing in Foremans firing range while trying any form of offensive tactic is suicide

    Agreed! Seagal was a martial artist long before he became a Hollywood star.

    Aikido is a defensive art, not an offensive art. It works off the attackers movements.
