>Gray Fox is faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than the descending foot of a Metal Gear, and has about a decade and a half's worth of experience over Snake
>Snake fistfights him and wins

Sure thing, Kojima.

nanomachines tho


jk, snake is just far better at CQC than Fox

Even though Frank has almost 20 years of experience on him? And was also trained by Big Boss?

It's like Captain America. He faces people with superior abilities but he's a martial arts genius and kicks their ass.

Yeah, but Captain America is superhuman candycoated as peak-human. Snake is just a really, really good soldier at the end of the day, while Fox is the product of like three different supersoldier programs alongside his seniority at fighting. The guy is a ninja Terminator; there's only so much that a really good soldier can do against something like that.

We're lead to believe that BB's genes really do make a huge difference. Regardless of how ridiculous it seems.

I just assume Snake is better because he's BB's clone

A supposedly inferior clone, though. Not that that means much, given the overall message of the series.

Plus he probably wasn't in full on ninja mode I mean he wanted to die. Might have been holding back a bit.

That's the best explanation I can come up with, too.
