Who'd win in a fight, Sam or Max?

Sam always beats Max to the phone, and keeps Max in line, so i'm saying Sam.

My fond hope is that this will become the new Federation vs Galactic Empire debate of the internet

though let's all hope that they never fight, or it would all go a bit Lethal Weapon...Max is Riggs by the by

    I would say Sam too, but Max would definitely have started the fight.

    Im sure Sam would win! So true that if Max can't beat him to the phone he might not beat him in a fight :rolleyes: XD

    But I'm sure they'll never fight for real! :o

    Sam would win. Max has always been a pushover in the games more often than Sam has been, even though Max is manic he's been beaten up pretty easily. The golf course in Hit the Road is a prime example. Sam's not so easy. In the end it's the two of them working together that makes the powerful heroes, not apart.

    So my verdict is-

    Max, by use of his powers as President of the United States, his Priest-abilities, his physic abilities and his teeth.

    Is this Max with or without the ability to turn into
    a bazooka
    ? (Devil's Playhouse spoilers)

    If you put their in equally conditions, Sam wins because he's bigger. If you attach all the abilities Max has now in the fight, I have no idea. Really.

    I think it depends on what inventory items they have stored in their, ahem, pockets.

    Max hands down, he is pretty evil, and a badass fighter. Just replay Hit the road, and hear he growl in the shop. Hey max this guy doesnt think your scary, what do you think about that, Max ROOOOOAAAAARRR!.

    Keeping in mind I know what are you talking about, I find Sam scarier.Probably is because is not that usual.

    And, by the way, I think I read this in the wiki, but apparently, both aren't really good fighters.

    Sam has a lot more control over the situation. And he's been keeping Max in line for years, apparently.

    I'm fairly sure Sam would win, just by throwing Max out of the way (like when they fight over the phone).

    But if Max gets the chance, he'd probably still be capable of doing some painful damage to Sam.

    well I guess it all comes down to who can pull a gun faster. I guess Max would win.

    Not really... it would just turn into a deadlock since they can't hit each other...

    Neither would win, because they would never get in a full blown fight. Easy.

    I guess it would be like this:

    "I can't shoot my little buddy!"

    "I can't shoot Sam!"

    And so on....

    Or they have so terrible aim they will never hit each other. Period

    Which brings me to my conclusion that Sam is actually the more sadistic and mean than Max could ever be.

    Well... apparently Max likes to be punched as much as he likes to punch. So, I went to the same conclusion as you, however Sam has sense of guilty and embarrasment... Thanks godness he has!

    Sam's just a maxochist.

    Has he now...
    Who actually stands watching while Max running wild on criminals?
    He could stop Max... but he doesn't! Instead I see him smiling!
    Thats not the face of someone who feels guilty!
    He is a sick little puppy!!!

    They're criminals. They had it coming.
    I mean, death is a perfect punishment for jaywalking... RIGHT?

    It's not like I'm not agree with you, but that is what I read in the Series Bible.

    But, in the other side, they are criminals. Criminals are unlawful. They deserve to be attacked by Max.

    And then all sense of guilt go away.

    (I know is an excuse. I know)

    Regarding the Sam always beats Max to the phone argument, one thing to consider is that neither of them probably really want to seriously hurt each other (probably) and so are holding back, but Max more so since I see his fightstyle being all about seriously hurting people (at least) whereas Sam is better able to moderate his fight skills to the level he wants.

    In an actual straight up all-out fight I would not want to see. Sam has the self-control to not make mistakes but Max has the bloodlust and passion.
    Sam beats Max's gun vice rather easily but gets eaten rather easily by Max's hunger vice for instance.
    Either way, it would be very messy with alot of collateral damage!
