In Reply to: POLL: Who would win if Wyet Earp, Indy, and Billy the Kid were in a free for all rumble? posted by Short Round on February 03, 2000 at 19:10:35:
If you're talking about the real Billy the Kid and the real Wyat Earp... then Indy wouldn't stand a chance. And between the three of them (if everything that is generaly accepted as true about Bonnie, is in fact true) William Bonnie would win... he'd half to. But if he was more the back-stabbing coward that some historians claim, he wouldn't stand a chance in a set fight between the three of them.
The reason that Indy wouldn't win is because he is a fictional character that acts in a fictional world, in which the hero is always a little more lucky than his opponents, and always moves a little faster/smarter than his opponents, this wouldn't happen in the real world in which Billy the Kid and Wyat Earp had to survive. Also, Indy was not a fighter like them... he was an archeologist who just did what had to happen to get the job done.
Maybe I'm wrong, but that's kinda the way I C it (it's hard to put it into words exactly).
