I always used to get shit for this but if a cougar tried to kill me and it didn’t have the jump on me, I would absolutely fucking beat it.

If I have my knife, I could take a small bear, I don’t give a fuck what anyone thinks. Natives fought bears with stone fucking axes. Maybe they wouldn’t have as good of a chance, a 3.5 inch steel blade will kill anything smaller than a polar bear.

If I don’t have a knife, I’m still probably beating a cougar. I know what adrenaline does to me, and with my experience in MMA, I know for a fact that I would kill the cougar. I very well may die too, but the cougar would breathe its last breath in my arms.

Now I’m talking 1 on 1 cage match. If the cougar is hunting me, the match obviously swings in the cat’s favor, likewise if I’m hunting the cougar, it swings even further in my direction.
