Who will win in a fight Shaolin or Ninja?

Considering that the Shaolin monks were called on to defend the Empire from attack by Japanese pirates (who were basically Ninja without the element of surprise) in the 1500's and they repeatedly defeated the pirates I'd say Shaolin. The pirates or Wokou were armed with Ninja like weapons and many were reportedly Ninja who had been employed by the Wokou. The Wokuo had plundered the Chinese coast for over 100 years before the Shaolin monks faced them, they continued to loot and pillage after the Shaolin battle as well, but they never succeeded against the Shaolin monks.





The Shaolin were specifically trained in fighting with the staff, spear and unarmed against hose attacking with weapons and in greater numbers. A single monk would often defeat several armed soldiers and assassins. So a single Ninja vs a single monk would be little challenge. The only hope the Ninja would have would be to kill the monk in his sleep, but then that would be his preferred method anyway.

Reply:Ninja:)
Reply:Overall with no rules? Ninja because he will just set up booby traps in Shaolin's home. In a ring with a referee and a point system, Shaolin every time.

Reply:Are you asking style v. style or fighter v. fighter?





Shaolin v. Ninja because both are ineffective forms of combat, the heavier fighter would probably win.





If you mean Vitor "Shaolin" Riberia v. Murillo "Ninja" Rua, then ninja would win. Shaolin has the better record, but the size disparity would be too much for him. Both of their records are included below.
Reply:shaolin monks for the win!!! enough of this ninja talk. the media have spiced up to what they seem to be today -- invincible, sneaky martial artists.





real ninjas back in the days were trained assasins, and are not as glorified and invincible as it seem in the media today. why do you not see or hear of ninjas existing today? because their way didn't work.





shaolin monks on the other hand, has a long history and yet still exists -- their arts are still passed on as we speak.
Reply:The Shaolin Monk would win for he is a trained and diciplined warrior/fighter. A ninja is a master of stealth assassin.Since the ninja is trained in sneaking up on and killing a person without them knowing it, he/she would not be as efficient in an up close and personal one on one fight with a Shaolin.
Reply:A Shaolin, Ninjas are not real, they exist only in movies, closest thing to a Ninja are Japanese feudal assasins, but hardly the NInjas you see in movies. Their weapons were poor quality and were not meant to fight one on one, but rather sneak in and assasinate.
Reply:i agree ninjas mostly only exist in movies and they were just assassians really but on the other hand shaolin isnt realy a fighting style its more for beauty than combat
Reply:depends on if it is nowadays or old days.


bothe trained harder centuries ago.


shaolin had iron body and iron pallm.





ninjas used a lot of tricks and deception.


i might think the shaolin would win, because most arts had their roots come from chinese arts, and japan definately did, and the chinese had no love for the japanese, so they taught them "watered down" martial arts.

whoever is bigger. as chances are anyone training in either of those arts (or claiming to) is learning nothing. Therefore without technique you have whoever's natural ability is better. speed, endurance, size and stregth are the only factors- and luck.
Reply:The Shaolin. I take Shaolin Kung Fu and Shaolin are trained to fight like warriors and to never give up. Ninja are weak and must stick to the shadows and hide like cowards. Plus, nothing will suprise the Monk so the Ninja's techniques would be ineffective.
Reply:Which ever one trains harder and more frequently.


There is no best art, only best artists.
Reply:The Shaolin would beat the tar outa the Ninja while he was dying from the dart the Ninja just taged him with that was laced in poison.


I say Duo Fatality
Reply:Monkey,...monkey, monkey, monkey,..MONKEY !!!


See, look, I can write silly things too !!!


Thanks for the two points.
Reply:If it was no rules then the ninja would probably (not definatly) win as they like to fight cheap.





But if they were bot aware and no traps and stuff were aloud then the shaolin would get him
Reply:Well if the shaolin didnt know the ninja was coming then the ninja would probably win but in combat including weapons the shaolin monk would win.
