They're both about 6'10" right? Both very muscular, while Karl to me is a nice guy, Ben is a baaad man. :) I see the nice guy being bullied. I could be wrong though. :D I remember Dennis Rodman gets thrown to the ground most of the time while the Mailman smiles back :)

Malone is about 6'9 and Wallace is about 6'8 1/2.

Having said that, Ben Wallace murders Malone. He is a ****ing animal.

Ben Wallace can beat up any big guy except for Shaq and Sir Charles..

Ben Wallace can beat up any big guy except for Shaq and Sir Charles..Yup, I agree for the most part although I think, Karl Malone vs. Wallace is a toss up and I'd also favor Barkley over Big Ben, but I'm not too sure about Shaq, yeah he's the biggest motherf**ker there is, but I don't think Shaq can really fight, 'cause he's never had to, since nobody would even bother steppin' up. I've always thought that to fight Shaq you'd definitely have to take out his legs 1st, just like Barkley did and that fat f*ckin' elephant would have a very hard time gettin' up and I'd move around while pounding his ass on the ground.

Shit, at this point I might say Ben would beat Shaqs ass too. His mother died last year and his brother died this year...he just got suspended 6 games...that's a lot of adrenaline.

Wallace would maim Barkley too.

Shaq is big but he fights like a school girl, juts look at the Brad Miller fight.

Barkley on the other hand would stomp a mudd hole in Wallace's or Malones' asses.

Haha...that's so true about Shaq. Even though just two inches lower and Brad Miller would still be in a coma today.

6'4 1/2 inch Sir Charles wouldn't stomp a mudhole in that <--------- mans ass. And that's coming from a huge Barkley fan. Barkley is my 3rd favorite player all time but...well...just look at the avatar. He should have a sign on him that reads, "avoid at all costs!"

I'm tentativly picking Ben Wallace, I think Malone is more mature as a fighter in terms of heart and toughness .

malone wins easy.in his prime he was a beast and even towards the end was one of the most fit in the nba. he only had like 2.6% body fat :eek: . malone before his last year with the lakers had only missed 11 games 6 due to suspension. karl wasnt afraid to drive on anybody shaq included. charles barkley was also very tough and i remember when he fought shaq and was feedin him shots.

Ben just has to avoid Malones elbows then he should get the victory

I dont know this is a toss up but the real ? is Prime Sir Charles and anyone in the NBA i dont think anyone could have taken him. He slammed Shaq and shaqs gotta be the heaviest guy in the NBA

Toss-up, but Ben seems to be a bit meaner.

None of you guys remember the PRIME Karl Malone.

He will go down in history as the most in shape athleate of all time. For a decade he kept his body fat percentage to low to measure. That's under 3%.

He beat out Michael Jordan for an MVP.

I like Ben Wallace but Karl Malone from the early 90's would destroy him.

Especially because Malone isn't afraid to bend the rules and throw elbows in Basketball, so if he kept the same attitude in boxing he's got this fight in the bag.

malone in his prime, in his MVP days, can take on ben wallace's defense, he had an array of shots in his arsenal. he can drive, post up, shoot in the mid-range, even free throws. wallace would have his hands full against malone... the MVP malone.

on the other hand, malone will have an easier time guarding wallace. ben has no perimeter game, should be set up in the post to get an easier shot. he can't create his own offense, unlike malone.

on a one-on-one match-up, malone will outscore wallace by a mile ;)

Was Karl more in shape than Wilt Chamberlain or Artis Gilmore?

i believe it's karl

mainly because he went up against tougher, faster, and stronger power forwards in his career, from early begginings, to his prime, and late in his career. opponents such as: barkley, rodman, kemp, o'neal, garnett, bird, etc. and he averaged double figures in both rebounds and points in almost every season he is in.

in wilt's time, there were a few centers who fair closely to him, probably the toughest would be russel. i don't know about artis gilmore's time.

in short, karl was very consistent in his career while banging bodies with so many tougher and competitive opponents :cool:

That's a really good analysis. I would also like to point out how old Karl Malone is now, and how he never missed more than 1 game in a row before his last season.

He had less than 10 missed games in 10 years, I think.

He'd also overload his ass with all the points he'd pour in over him before foulin him out!

Big Ben might slow him down but over several games, he'd get humiliated.
