Separating the Men from the Boys


Here it is! The site where we match up the 64 toughest guys in the world and let them fight it out to see who is the toughest. Tuesday, March 13th is decision day for seeding, and the official bracket will be released soon after. The format follows this year's NCAA Mens Basketball Tournament, with each ranked badass matched up to their NCAA counerpart.

But first, some ground rules for qualification:

1. No abnormal / mutant abilities. (Batman/Zorro are okay, but Wolverine/Superman are not.)
2. No Robots (i.e. Optimus Prime)
3. No characters that originated as cartoons. (No Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)
4. Some people listed are for their generic characters (Jackie Chan) others for specific characters.
5. Avoid, for the most part, real life people (i.e. John McCain spent seven years in a POW camp but this is not an appropriate list for him).
