Snake wins.
Even given Khuutra's "face to face" situation, one second Chief could be looking Snake in the eye, and the next second, Snake is gone. Chief wouldn't be able to find him, and Snake would just crunk his neck.
And, as shown by that video of when Snake first meets Big Mama, you can't just run up on Snake with a gun, even if you have multiple people.
So both scenarios, straight up fight or looking eye to eye, results in Chief getting destroyed by Snake. And I mean, worst come to worst, Snake will throw an EMP, short circuit Chief's suit, and then just slap him around a little bit, before pulling his M1911 and blowing Chief's head away.
This is silly. Snake is a bad man, but he's not even in the same league as the Chief, neither in terms of hand-to-hand combat skills no in terms of physical ability. The Chief's reaction time alone is more than twice as fast as the absolute fastest non-augmented human. Chief would tear Snake to pieces. There's no way around it.
That dosen't make any sense.
I know a caveman could kick my ass without breaking a sweat.
We evolved, we dont need that brute force anymore.
I dont get it. How in that universe, with all that wonderful tecnology. Mankind somehow got stronger (instead of fatter and with better hand/eye cordination than the previous generation).....
When you rebuild humans so that they can fight a much more powerful coalition of species in a galaxy-spanning war, they tend to get tough. Cavemen didn't have stuff to fight like we're apparently going to have in the 2500's.
Snake is a legendary Soldier so no doubt in my mind Snake.
Do you even know who Master Chief
is?
