    You chose Hopkins - do you really think a man who used to steal old ladies purses, and uses every illegal trick in the ring - a man who is prejudiced against white people - whoul try to save you if you were wounded?
    Its just that the workrate would be of no help on the battlefield.

        Joe adaptability would be instrumental in our survival.

        Hopkins stealing your survival gear wouldn't help you though.

            Yeah.. its unlikely any boxer is gonna help save you.. Might as well enjoy it.. Besides if Ricky was lost on the battlefield there would be a few thousand singing fans en route to you pretty quickly.

              Yeah but it would be pretty bleak when after firing off a round Calzaghe suffered another "broken wrist." Hard to fire a gun when you've got a broken wrist.

                What would be most important is WINNING the battle for survival - and Joe never loses!

                  Why is Vitali not on the list?

                  Out of those listed, I pick Wlad and Joe.

                    That is seriously funny.

                      Remember to consider important traits.. physical size/strength, personality(don't want to be bored to tears), trust.. I'm sure there are others.

                      Poll to follow!
                      Its not in your list but it would be..............Gina Carano.
