i am feeling so playful this morning… allow me to tickle your brains, you can giggle or not… oh wait, there is no nerves in our brains - you won’t feel it anyways. 
so here it is…
who is the better fighter of two individuals that train in a basic similar manner and method, yet one gets into many fights through out his lifetime and the other does not get involved with a single one… who is more skilled in fighting?
The fighter is more skilled in fighting, because that’s what he has been doing.
The more you fight the better you will be at it. simple.
no one can defeat guan yu the god of war he has 10000000000 : 0 record

The one who gets into more fights will be more comfortable in a fight situation and less likely to suffer the adrenaline dump and freeze… whether he is a more skilful fighter or not is another matter
Greetings..
The winner..
Be well..
What is the manner of their training? How close to realism does it approach?
Also, what about the fights? What types and places were they? Were they ego fights with FAR inferior opponents? Were they assaults with skilled opponents?
Too many factors involved.
The fighter would be the better fighter but the better fighter doesn’t always win.
I have an even better question for you uki:
Out of a quadriplegic, and an able bodied person, who is the better fighter? 
[QUOTE=Kevin73;973308]Too many factors involved.[/QUOTE]no. your mind think too much. 
[QUOTE=AdrianK;973312]I have an even better question for you uki:
Out of a quadriplegic, and an able bodied person, who is the better fighter? :D[/QUOTE]
That all depends. Is the quadriplegic up and about in a wheelchair accomplishing things, or is he simply existing? Is the able-bodied man doing the same thing? There are many variables.
then again, I don’t think you were going in that direction…
[QUOTE=TenTigers;973345]then again, I don’t think you were going in that direction…[/QUOTE]i am curious to see if anyone is going anywhere remotely categorized as being a direction.

let them fight and you have your answer.
we’re talking skills in fighting and not actually winning fights, right?
i mean its logical to say that victory doesn’t always go to the more skilled individual…
apart from having them fight, you could take a look at who has more skills when they are training.
The one who never got in a fight, he has never lost a single fight.
Consider the classic standoff between an old man and a young man (both MAs.) It’s quite obvious the young man has better physique. Does this guarantee a win?
My Tai Ji instructor had two simple sayings. The first one was “Age and treachery will beat youth and skill.” In other words, physical fitness and resource availability are not the only deciding factors in conflict. The old man has a chance, perhaps a better chance than the youth expects.
The second saying was “Old masters fear the elbows of youth.” Again, just because someone is cunning and treacherous doesn’t mean they can’t be caught off guard with a devastating hit from a strong, aggressive opponent. So the young man also has a chance.

Fighting is but one facet of conflict resolution. I’d say the person who gets into lots of fights may develop more physical prowess, skill and experience, but the person who stays out of fights may develop more nonviolent skills of conflict resolution - perhaps by talking, or seeing possible conflicts ahead of time and avoiding them, or manipulating circumstances to minimize the chances of violence.
If the fighter doesn’t know how to make peace when they have to, and the peacemaker doesn’t know how to fight when they have to, though… then they both still have stuff to train.
Fighting sucks cause **** like this happens !!

This man should get the cigar. The none fighter doesn’t fight for a reason. The fighter gets into many fights because he is not afraid to fight. Fighting does not enhance your skills as such, but it will allow you to apply learned skills. A person that is perfectly willing to fight will be more able to apply himself, to where the none fighter might have some inhabitions that would not allow him to express himself in such a violent manner. Even if the none fighter shows more actual skill than the fighter, he still will not have the same drive to fight as the fighter. Being that he has fought many times before, he will have far fewer inhabitions toward violence.

Fighting lets you do cols **** like this :
