New Bruiser Icon

[Storm_Runner]

<div>I've seen numerous threads on this forum about Chuck and Mr. T as Bruiser icons.  Roddy Piper has even been mentioned a few times.  Those guys are good icons for real life people but what about fictional charactors?  What fictional charactor would make a good Bruiser?  For me the ultimate bruiser from a movie, or movies as the case may be, is Riddick as played by Vin Diesel from Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick.  Anyone have any other suggestions?  I realize this isn't the most serious subject in the world but every once in a while I get tired of discussing who's been nerfed and why they did/didn't deserve it. </div>

[ShinmaRyche]

<div></div><font color="#ffff00">The black "mini-boss" in the Chinese restaraunt, from "Kiss of the Dragon" is DEFINATELY a bruiser. Punches through a support beam and keeps rolling. Unfortunately he loses because Jet Li is the "Star". It took a movie cliche front crane kick to take him out though... :smileytongue:</font>

<div></div>The Hulk HAS to be a Bruiser.

[ganjookie]

quien es "HUlk"?<div></div>

[JustinYourHead]

<div>uhh Tyler Durden is by far the best Bruiser, He doesn't care if he gets his [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] kicked, it just makes him kick more [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn] later. He waxes on cats like none other. Plus he has his own army backing him up... so uh yeah, screw all the other, cept The Hulk he's cool.</div>

[Colossaltitan]

<div></div>Yeah, Tyler Durden FTW!

<div></div>Segall will never be a Bruiser.  He's a wannabe, Like Bruce Leeroy!  At heart, Segall only knows a little Monk Fu.  He spends more time adjusting his pony tail and making sure he looks cool doing his moves than just breakin noses and kickin [expletive haxx0red by Raijinn].

Hollywood Hulk Hogan a bruiser? Nah, he's just a pretty boy sell out. Same with Randy 'Macho Man' Savage.You wanna talk Bruisers - Andre the Giant, Big John Stud, Hacksaw Jim Dugan, and George the Animal Steele.THOSE are bruisers.get over the whole martial artist thing too. Bruce Lee, Jet Li, Steven Seagall, etc...Anyone who fights with more training than you'd learn in one session at the YMCA is a monk. We're not talking skilled forms of martial arts here. Bruisers are street fighting, barroom brawling, kneebreaking Muscle.Clint Eastwood in Any Which Way is a better example.Give a bruiser a beer, and a pool cue, and we'll take on anything or anyone. From Baby deer, to Darathar. Single Handedly. We might lose, but they'll remember it.<p>Message Edited by Maelwys1 on <span class="date_text">03-06-2006</span><span class="time_text">05:04 AM</span></p>

<div>Well...if you're going to go with wrestlers then I have to go with Chris Benoit, the rabid wolverine.</div>

[Sahmmael]

Or perhaps just good ole Wolverine from Marvel....  maybe in his earlier days as "Patch."  He was a freakin' mean SOB.  Pulled out his own eye to scare away a crowd.  He self-heals just like us too.<div></div>

[Storm_Runner]

<div></div>Yeah...Patch was a bruiser alright.  Nobody could party like him...booze, cigars, women, and a good fight to round out the evening.  Or any combination thereof...or all at once...Patch had his adventuresome side.

My vote would also have to go with Marv (can only be done right by Mickey Rourke...) from Sin City.He is:100% Grade ATop ChoicePrime CutUSDA SelectBruiser of all Bruisers. He not only has the power, but the attitude, the lack of pain sensation, and the intestinal fortitude to take on whatever masses he needs to get what he wants.<b><i>"This is blood for blood and by the gallon. These are the old days, the bad days, the all-or-nothing days. They're back! There's no choice left. And I'm ready for war." </i></b>No other lines ever muttered have evoked the pure essence of the Bruiser than that right there...

Segal? PFFT. his acting can make you cry.. His fake boxing is worse. Now. Chuck Norris.. his tears cure cancer. but he is more a monk.

My choice for Bruiser would have to be Sam Elliot in Road House, Theres just so much difference in his combat from Patrick Swayzes Monk style.  Its the Ultimate contrast of styles.
