Poll A genuine question I want answered.

[Captain Kush]

So me and a friend online have been arguing as we watch TOS (Both our first time watching anything Star Trek). We've been arguing about whether Sulu or Kirk would win in a fist fight. No phasers, no swords (Sulu), just fist fighting.

I tried to tell my boy that Sulu would have Kirk looking like Jake Paul, because he's obsessed with ancient forms of combat such as swordmanship. My friend believes that Kirk would win because he'd likely recieved intense hand-to-hand combat training during his time in the Academy.

We've finished the series month ago and the argument usually gets heated.

Kirk would tell you both to Get A Life

This is the only way the Shatner/Takei feud can end.

What good would his sword skills be when you said it had to be hand-to-hand?

Take away Sulu's sword, and he's down for the count. Kirk wins.

I used that as an example. If he could learn how to use a sword, he likely had training in other skills. He most likely knows at least one martial art because he stated that he was interested in many forms of ancient combat not just swordfighting.
