Could a professional heavyweight boxer hurt a standing Grizzly Bear with a body shot?

I'd knock a bear clean out with one punch.

 

What if you landed a cleanup hook on the bear during that 3 second window after the booming right?

 

If you landed it, it's fucked.

 

It'd go down like Pinklon Thomas

 

I think you're both probably correct.

Looks like Ugo's right about the three second window. The bear was stunned by this right hand from The Hulk, but quickly came back fighting.

 

yup.

Someone here getting attacked by a rabid dog, go ahead and punch it's nose and let me know how it turns out for you. Punch a crazed Mastiff or something in the nose and it will continue to bite you.

Never mind a bear or a chimp.

Like I said before, the strongest, toughest, best fighting man on Earth would get his face ripped off by a 250 pound Black Bear

 

:laugh11:

 

word.

All jokes aside, Bears are ridiculously powerful, one strike can kill a Bison. :jaw:

They are also much faster than they look.

If you see a Bear in the distance, run like a motherfucker.

That's why I tend to avoid going camping up north... :34:

 

Only if the Bear is the fighter's promoter as well as opponent.

 

A brown bear can run around 40 miles an hour....fuck that, you got no chance running away from it :scared:

 

If you can get in your car you can get away from it easily. Bears are horrible drivers.

 

The trick there is to run for less than hour. Run for less than an hour and you should be ok. Either that or run with somebody who runs slower than you.

 

Are you sure about that?

Must have been a black bear. Car jacking bastards.:scared2:

 

Proves my point exactly. The way he was making that turn and accelerating like that . The car will never last him past 200k.

:giggle:

I laughed out loud at this one.

 

Like Asian people?

 

That's actually the worst thing you can do.

 

What should you do? I guess try and climb a tree and wait for the bear to get bored?

 

What are you meant to do, Steve? I think I'd just try to ignore it and act calm, if i could.

 

You're meant to run AT IT, making a lot of noise. No lie. You run, you're fucked, you play dead, you're fucked, you run at it and you're probably fucked too...but it's been known to work on the odd occasion.

 

I actually know a bit about this. :: Well, for black bears anyway. Had a dozen or so sightings in my town last month. Plenty of bears around these parts. Did a story going around with a wildlife officer, setting up traps etc...

You're supposed to stay calm and walk away slowly if you can. Running/quick movements can startle the animal and it might try to kill you as a means of defending itself in its sick, twisted bear-mind.

It's worth keeping in mind that most black bears want absolutely nothing to do with humans. As scared of us as we are of them kind of thing. So if you stay calm, walk away, and get to a building or a vehicle as soon as you can... it'll probably leave you alone

No

 

What's the closest encounter you've had with a bear?

 

::

 

I saw one out the window at work once. Nothing major.

 

What if I dressed up as a bear? Would I be ok, or would the bear probably try to mount me?
