I'm sure 'Q' could arrange it, but who would win?
Let's assume they each believe their crews are at stake, and that they're mortal enemies.

I see it as a toss-up; any of y'all have definite opinions one way or another?

Felt the need for a dumb but fun topic is all- Chrisisall

I'm gonna go with Mal, because he'd throw the KO punch while JT was still warming up and getting his shirt off.

I hate to say it, but Mal isn't much use in a fistfight. It's one thing if he has Zoe and Jayne backing him up, but otherwise all he really did was beat up a girl, and that one was pretty close.

Kirk in the first round.

Now Zoe vs. Cpt. Kirk...

He'd be making passes at her whilst she commenced to kicking the crap out of him...LOL

I'd vote for Mal. He knows how--and when--to fight dirty. And he's not so bad, hand to hand; he gave the operative his money's worth, after all.

But I'm not so interested in who would win the fight, as I am in who would score the background music...

Can't you just hear that old Amok Time riff in the air right now? The one that was Doctor Zoidberg's national anthem on Futurama?

Geez, man...that's exactly what went through my mind when I first read this thread.

I'd vote for Kirk...until Inara distracts him.

Mal would be aiming to fix it in the openning punch. Failing that, things might head south for him.

I don't know about the whole fist fight thing ... but it would be funnier than a monkey's uncle to set Reaver-kicking River on a whole gaggle of red shirts.

What about Spock vs. Mal? I'll bet Mal got that nerve (aka the vulcan stun grip or what-the-heck-ever nerve) all torn up with shrapnel too.

Or maybe Reavers vs. Tribbles. Damn little critters would make good hors d'oevres I'd bet.
