    Just shows how uneducated you are. Putin was trained kgb agent during the soviet union. You see how he looks at his current age and it doesnt take a rocket scientist to tell he could wreck the ordinary politician and dictators. Russia’s whole thing is physical strength.

      Putin is a trained KGB office clerk. His job in East Germany didn’t require any skills whatsoever.

      I do believe that he is good in judo, though. Or, maybe not literally good, but would almost surely be able to kill me with his bare hands. Except, of course he’s quite old now, so maybe he’d just get a heart attack in the process? His body might not be in a very good condition, but judo is a thing you don’t really forget.

      At least it’s sure that I can run a lot faster than Putin can, and that would probably give me enough of an edge. Could probably lob some heavy objects at him, then run away to find another heavy object to throw, etc. He’s not an honest man or a fair player, so neither does his opponent need to be :)

        You’re right but I’m also assuming you’re somewhat healthy and young. Compare Elon musk and putin. Or really putin with any dictator or politian, be it macron, stammer, trump, tradeu, xe Xing ping or kim jong un. For an old kgb fossil. I a 25 year old man would get absolutely wrecked by Putin in a 1 to 1 fist fight

      Putin weighs 50 bucks soaking wet. He’s smaller than my grandmother. Unless the kgb teaches mean shin kicking techniques, I reckon my gran could take him.

        He’s also 72 freakin years old, so he’s old enough to be a grandmother as well. The KGB training he underwent 50 years ago isn’t gonna help that.

          Who said it would be a clean fight? A tiny novichok capsule in Putin’s gloves would make him the winner in a couple of days

          Honestly, musk isn’t that young either and he’s never taken care of himself. Yeah he’s only in his 50s, but that’s a skinny fat 50 something yo that has never taken care of himself at any point. Putin is your typical strong man bully type, and those types do like to take care of themselves in order to have that bravado image going for them. Plus he does have the training from way back. I’d say it would be even simply because musk had never at any point trained himself physically. He’s the richest man in the world, if he cared, he could hire personal trainers and chefs and what not but he doesn’t which makes me think he could even curl a 30 lb db or something small like that.

            I haven’t thought about it, but you’re right. He’s the richest man in the world. He could (and would need to) literally pay models to fuck him to burn off the calories or whatever else he can come up with. Instead he’s just like, “nah.”

              A big hurtle to get over for being in shape is diet. Sometimes it’s just easier to eat a bowl of cereal for breakfast rather than making the eggs and stuff that would actually be healthy. But if you always just have it ready without any thought into it, it’s one less hurtle to overcome. So the fact he’s not doing anything for it at all tells me he’s completely worthless physically. He wouldn’t even have to work out that much, just eating healthier with the bare minimum of training could put him over putin easily. But it’s easy to see that’s not happening
