If the Paras and the Royal Marines had a bar fight, who'd be the last standing?

Firstly, this is not another one of the "who is more elite" or "who is the best" etc. This question is to help settle a bet.

If the Paras had a fight in a pub with the Royal Marines, who'd you think would be the last standing? Obviously the pub would be in ruins.

The Marines are super-tough commandos, and the Paras are very agressive nutters.

So, your personal *opinion* matters
Shock & Awe!

I AM joining the Marines, mate.

orion has a spectacular aura about
Permit this Yank an opinion:

The pub would be GONE.
The bobbies would be gone.
The patrons would be GONE.

Last standing? I'm afraid I'd have to put my bet with the Paras. I've got nothing but respect for the Royal Marines, but the Paras are USED to being outnumbered, surrounded, and out-gunned and coming out on top.

Orion

EDIT: Shock and Awe! LOL! Still, they're having some fun. Not hurting anything...But I can understand the frustration.

Whicj ever one had members who knew how to fight the best.

A bar fight is not something the military trains people for.

Thats why bouncers almost always come out on top, when soldiers start fights in bars.

The bouncers know how to fight, the soldiers know how to soldier.

They are different.

the MP's since they are more trained in un-armed fighting and take down/arrest/restraint then your average solider is, since it is their job.

Aww no...not another dyck mesuring question..why don't people ask about different services cooks or bakers or clerks fighting? Why the commando vs. viking vs. centurion thing everyday? I say invite these folks of equal numbers in a bar, pay their tabs, insult them all and see what happens (if you make it out). Maybe you'll be the last one standing? Or join up and find out.

Or elite forces have a few wars to fight, not each other...
