A Navy SEAL vs. a mixed martial artist in 10 feet of water?

Question

Both fighters in hand-to-hand combat. No weapons. I predict the Navy SEAL will win.

Answer 1

Can I toss a bullshark into the fight ?

Answer 2

the navy seal.for a start there trained for that situation,and they wouldn't do it hand to hand without a weapon they would pull thier knife.and the mma guy hasn't got a rules and a referee to help him when the going gets tough.

Answer 3

Navy SEAL of course. They don't train for competition. Navy SEALs don't have rules when they fight.  I would expect strikes to the groin, eyes, throat and other nastiness if I fought a SEAL.

Answer 4

Navy SEAL will definitely win. Thats what they are trained for.

Answer 5

Navy Seal

-obviously theres no reason explaining it

Answer 6

Definitely the Navy Seal-he is trained for that type of combat and could most likely even kill the MMA practicioner.  Now you put him in the Octagon where he is forced to abide by the rules of MMA, we could be looking at a quick victory for the MMA guy in this scenario.

Answer 7

SEAL will drown his foe.  The kind of underwater preparation that SEALS have to be able to endure assures this victo

Answer 8

The seal no questions asked

EDIT-

I honestly can't understand why people try and over analyze the question.  It's simple, straight forward... IN 10 FEET OF WATER! There's no mythology to it, and no, there's no footing. The SEAL who trains and works in and around water will handle the MMA fighter. Granted there might be a decent amount of resistance from the fighter he might be more susceptible to drowning and the SEAL has trained for it. a simple pull of the MMA guy under the water and he panics... especially in midbreath or on the exhale.

When you're thinking about getting air and that's all that is in your mind the instinct to survive takes over and you will just try to get to the top not worrying about the fight at hand.

Answer 9

SEALS are especially trained for underwater combat.

SEAL has the advantage.

Answer 10

I predict that a real seal would win.

then get eaten by a polar bear.

Answer 11

No weapons in 10 feet of water? Well, it depends on how well the MMA fighter can not only swim, but how well he can coordinate in the water. The SEAL trains very often in the water, so I'd give the edge to the SEAL dispite giving up a lot of technique and skill to the MMA fighter.

On dry land with the same rules, the MMA fighter could kill the SEAL. There wouldn't be a referee to pull the MMA fighter off of the SEAL when he's sinking in the rear naked choke. (A move he practices about 100 times a day)

Answer 12

Depends on who can hold their breath for the longest.  ; ¬ )

I'd vote for the navy seal?
