fuckin epic batlle RIP PROBIE

[axlsbrain]

Could very well be the greatest fight in NHL history, when you take everything into account : the length of the fight, the respect that they had for one another, and this great era in a sport that has become way to soft on fighting. RIP Probie, any true fan of hockey will miss you.

At the end they gently bump heads and Probie rubs Marty's head. Mutual respect between two of the greatest of all time.

Bad Bob Probert chipped my front tooth and put 7 stitches in my chin.

And he's still my hero!

FUCK I MISS THE OLD NHL.

Probie was the best - undisputed. I have to declare this a draw - but it was awesome to watch them fight and better yet to recognize each other's efforts with a light headbutt and a nod at the end.

@SCROGY: It is true that Horton almost never fought... point taken... but then again, people knew that Horton wasn't to be messed with. That's a pretty darned good deterrent right there, someone people steer clear of on reputation alone. No one wanted to tangle with Horton, because everyone knew he was extremely strong and as tough as an ox. Probert is tough to top, but then, I am a Blackhawks man from way back...

@thekillers1stfan Agreed. As soon as Laraque starts to tire or the guy starts getting the best of him he throws the guy down so it looks like he won. He was a tough dude and a good fighter but prime Probert would beat him 9 times out of ten easy.

@GeorgiaBoy1961 Tim Horton was known to be crazy strong but was never known as a fighter. You have to fight to prove yourself and Tim almost never fought.
