Who would win, Georges St. Pierre or a Chimpanzee?
Posted on January 11, 2012, 06:37 AM by Anton GurevichUFC Welterweight champ Georges St. Pierre gave his prediction for a man vs. animal match-up, claiming that "even a chimpanzee could kill a man". TMZ went a little further weith the idea, turning GSP vs. Chimp topic into a somewhat in-depth discussion. One way or another, St. Pierre's next opponent inside the Octagon will be human; it's either Nick Diaz or Carlos Condit.

I thought I was drunk last night! 8P
GSP is smart here saying the chimp would destroy a man, cause a chimp def would kill GSP or any man at that.
For the most part, yes a chimp will beat a man BUT a man can beat most animals, including chimps IF he keeps his head and knows how to fight to survive. Mnute Bolt's (no idea how that is spelled) tribe forces boys to kill a lion bare handed as a rite of passage. Mas O'Yama used to kill bulls with his bare hands. There are many accounts of men defeating animals. If you watch the way that chimps fight, they just go berserk. A man with good foot work could run circles around a chimp and pick it apart. Even a Jiu Jitsu guy could manage to survive on the ground with a chimp. He would have to be top level but it is within the realm of possibility.
I dont think you realise how easy a chimp would tear human flesh from the bone.
lol I don't even know what to think of this...
Apparently Aleksander Emelianenko killed a bear though. And I actually believe him. He's a little crazy.
Yea, and Sokodju killed a lion, what a fairytale, bears in Russia walk around 900 pounds, they are not even close for a catchweight match up.
we live in a world where the most pathetic human being can kill the largest carnivor on earth with the squeez of a trigger, so i wouldnt doupt that he did. the question is why the fuk would you kill a bear?
And don't forget Brock killing those vicious, savage prairie dogs...
Yes, he did kill a bear but he did it with a bowie knife.
Always thought that the Noguiras looked like Chimpanzees
Is that you Chael?
no, I believe that was Ryan Ventura posing as Chael :P
I saw a film with guys who looked like chess players for physique get attacked by about 10 chimps and they easily threw the chimps off them although they still lost because they thought they were going to die. I think if they stood their ground they would have won and if it was an mma fighter it would be no contest in favour of man 1 on 1.
Now a bear on the other hand would only be eavenly matched if the bear was same size as man and had no claws or teeth.
Never happen. The chimp wins every time. A bear would also win every time, unless it was a teddy bear. Get a clue.
Well that is what happened. A bear gets it's advantage by size and it's claws and teeth so if a 200lb man fought a small 200lb bear that had no claws or teeth the man could easliy win because he can grasp his hands together and bears are not like cats that have special muscles giving them 4 times power to weight or anything so their strength would be like a very strong man at 200lbs but without the flexibility or grasping ability.
People say a pitbull would easily kill a man but I saw a man pick up the dog and slam him on the concrete and the dog immediately let go and ran away with a bad limp probably from a broken foot or something. Most other videos I have seen where the person looks helpless is when it's a small woman and the dog won't let go so they just sit there screeming for help without doing anything to get the dog off and then a guy with a stick comes and gives the dog a crack with it and it takes off.
They must have been baby chimps. A man can IMHO beat ONE chimp IF they are a very well trained fighter and keep their head BUT never multiples and there is no way they are just tossing a full grown chimp aside. Chimps are bigger, stronger and more ferocious than any man. The only advantages that men can have over chimps are maneuverability and technique.
Wxcuse me but an adult chimp is between 40-60kg and most men I know wiegh more than 90-130lbs so that is an obvious hole in your observation but they are much stronger than a human yes. But like I said I saw a few guys fend them off from a full on attack and they thought they were going to die but they easily threw the chimps off of themselves. Now they may very well be killed by chimps just because of fear but a guy who is confident and reasonably able to fight should have no problems with one chimp.
excuse not wxcuse.lol.
I am in agreement with most of what you said but there is one detail you need to reassess. It isn't overall wt, you should look at, it is LBM. Yes an adult chimp is 0nly around 150 lbs BUT a lot more of it is LBM. Humans average around 15-20% fat whereas Chimps are only 5-10% fat. They can also pull about 1500 lbs across flat ground with one arm.
That 1500lbs thing was absed off of a chimp that was pulling in a jerking motion and a body builder pulled 500lbs without any yanking. I have seen a man hold two cars above himself for a short period of time. I am not saying chimps are weaker as they are certainly stronger then men but they do not have the dimensions and weight to win a fight against someone who knows what they are doing. P4P there is no chance for a human to win but Humans are generally bigger and have the height advantage. When the chimps do those 1 armed pulls they are also using their backs and legs and the human one was done with just armstrength. Men have held 6000lbs on their backs before. But for balance sake a chmp or gorilla would not be able. The real adavantage a chimp has is grip strength in which a man can build himself up to compare with an average chimps stength but his grip strength will never get to the same level. I think a chimps weakness is it's throw around weight leverage and height.
TMZ is garbage...and f*cking stupid.
You sound like my mom
yea, Bruce but sometimes I agree with our mom.
Anyone with half a brain knows that an irate chimp would destroy any man that does not have a loaded gun on him. Chimps have freakish strength and would tear the sh*t out of the best fighter on the planet, not by beating him up, but by biting, ripping, and clawing the crap out of him.
I agree with you 9 out of ten times here BUT in order to do any of that a chimp has to catch you. I give Machida a 30% chance at victory.
well atleast the chimp can finish fight lol..
aleks killed a bear...
I killed a beer.
Actually . I have watched the show contest between animal and human to pull a rope even chimpanzee smaller but they always beat human by scientist.Period
What about a beserker? If you don't know what a beserker is, they were ancient Norse warriors who worked themselves up into a seemingly uncontrollable killing frenzy, in which they would just kill anything, friendly or foe. Sometimes they even used their hands. Now since these warriors would totally go frantic, they would probably fight almost the same way chimpanzee's fight, i.e biting clawing etc. Now imagine if it was a huge beserker that was strong as hell, would you think they would win a fight with a chimpanzee?
