Are we talking in their prime or the current 47 - 62 year old versions of the rappers you selected?

I'm going Foxxx then. All these guys obviously hit the gym, but if we're talking physical altercation, his reputation precedes him.

Sneaky pick might be RZA, could be the Royce Gracie of the bunch on the low.

Well no way its Melle Mel cos the footage of him being knocked out by Willie D in that early 90s rapper boxing tournament finally surfaced recently and it was a massacre. Besides, Ive heard a few UFC dudes say 'roids end up being a detriment so that rules out him and Busta.

I went with Willie but Im thinking I shouldve gone with Freddie. No one raps about beating people up that much without being tested a few times.

I know LL and RZA had kung fu lessons but are WC and Treach known for their fighting ability?

Wilie D has pro boxing experience. Went with him.

Foxxx or Willie D. Went with Foxxx cause I've seen him in person and I don't think he'd feel it if a truck ran into him at 80 MPH.

Willie D has boxing experience and more importantly knows what it's like to train hard. Teach him some basic takedown defence and ground game and he's got the best shot.

^True, but Foxxx is also notorious for knocking people out. I mean, they don't call him "Bumpy Knuckles" for nothing. His size advantage on Willie D would be kinda crazy. Like 80 pounds.

Freddie the Foxxx. LL might get his opponents scared due to his rampant sexuality - remember that Jamie Fox stand up bit on him?

Someone on here posted that they were at a show and Freddie Foxxx smacked Fame from M.O.P, or something. Was that true? I lead a sad enough life to remember that about once a year.

Freddie Foxx being able to knock people out doesn't really come into play when facing someone who has actual training behind them. KO artists win about 10% of the time in MMA. If they don't knock you out in the first 2-3 minutes of the fight and you grind against em (nh x 1000000), and weaken their legs, their KO power is gone and they're forced to roll with you.

If Willie D has professional boxing experience, and could be taught how to do some basic submissions (arm bar, triangle, arm-triangle, maybe an Americana or Kimura or something for fun, etc.) he'd win. Assuming Freddie Foxx is all streetfighting and haymakers. If he has actual training, then it's a different story. Most of these dudes would get ragdolled against a real fighter, though.

Anyone with kung fu experience loses on general principle for thinking that shit works in a real live fight.

It's also sad to see so many people on here assume that a dude with a giant, muscular physique can actually fight. Punches come from torque, leg and twist power, not arms and chest muscles. Melle Mel would lose to a local amateur female BJJ white belt. Lmao. Get in the gym, fellas, get in the gym.

Should've just quoted this post, didn't see it. But this, 100%.

The guys that train at my gym that look like Kimbo Slice, who walked around jacked, picking street fights before coming to train, allllllways get tapped by the Nick Diaz looking dudes who don't say shit.

Training and cardio >>>>> muscles, beating up NYC goons with no training.
