Toughest Player In The Prem

[Microdot]

Yeah, Gravesen looks pretty handy. But it'd probably go to Drogba or John Terry or someone, Rooney would get battered by someone like that, he's too short.

If it was sumo wrestling then probably Frank Lampard or Harry Kewell... probably Kewell.

But of course I'm sure most Rugby players could have most football players, I mean one of the England players can bench about 34 stone and could knock out anyone with one punch (if he caught them right).

Rooney could probably beat both those dudes up at the same time.

I somehow doubt it! They're both about 6'4, so they could outrange him and I'm sure they're stronger than him too, I mean Drogba's ripped to **** as well as a big guy.

yeah. I forgot that height = toughness.
for example, Frank Bruno's extra height and reach and more toned physique was simply too much for little Mike Tyson wasn't it..

and that Bruce Lee fella at 5'7" was a giant of a man.

I remember Colleymore thought he was a tough guy and Mike Tindell of England and Gloucester laid him out cold with one punch in a bar in London after Colleymore got chopsy and squared up to him.

not sure what point this proves as no one's even mentioned Collymore as a potential hard man, though a gripping story nonetheless.

There wasn't that much between them though and Bruce Lee said he wouldn't want to fight Mohammad Ali, plus he was an actor, so you don't know how hard he really was.

Are you a short arse or something?

lol. Tyson fcukin pasted Bruno, it was one of the most one sided heavyweight bouts in boxing history.

Bruce Lee was a martial artist first and an actor second. try googling his name to find out a little more about him as there ain't enough hours in the day to list his achievements here.

either way, I reckon Rooney would knock the shite out of both Drogba and Terry.
Drogba's writhing on the floor in agony at the mearest hint of contact. imagine what he'd be like if someone actually lamped him one.

Microdot - footballers are pussies, if you want to watch some real tough men play sport the Heniken Cup is on this weekend starting with Gloucster vs Ulster Friday night Skyports 2.... It will be an education for you..

[Esox Lucius]

nah if you want to see proper hard men watch the GAA on setanta.

not really interested in the relative hardness of footballers to other sports tbh. the thread is about who folk think is the toughest player in the premiership at the moment.

those of you interested in peanut cuddling can start your own thread about who the toughest egg chaser is if you like.
good luck with it and the 2 or 3 responses it'll get.

like I already said, all this "rugby players would knock shit out of em" stuff is largely a falacy anyway. can't think of a single rugby player who Duncan Ferguson or Norman Whiteside couldn't have beaten up.
