      "Welcome folks to Madison Square Garden, where we present to you in classic Merry Marvel Tradition, the match up of the Century" a well dressed man in a tux exclaimed over the microphone as the crowd's slowly began to fill the arena. "Witness this Catastrophic Collision of Collosal Combatants" the man echoed loudly getting the crowd pumped up.

      In the Blue corner weighing in at 500 lbs, Yancie's Fancy, the Brooklyn Behemoth. New York's very own ever lovin Blue Eyed THING! Benjamin J Grimm!!!!" the man shouted and the crowd went wild as the massive figure of the Thing confidently strode into the arena.

      "Geez what a crowd" the Thing said to himself as he stepped into the ring. Raising his arms to the crowd he threw a couple of mock punches firing them up even more.

      "And in the red corner also weighing in at 500 lbs. hailing all the way from Siberia, the Menacingly Malicious Mutant Monster THE COLOSSUS!!!" the man cheered as the audience began to boo and hiss.

      Cat calls went out through the arena as Kitty Pryde sat down "and why is Peter doing this again?" the young woman asked.

      "Because, it's for charity" Logan remarked sitting down next to her and cracking a beer "it's amazing what a man will do with the right motivation" he said flashing a wicked grin.

      "Thanks for coming Logan" she spoke "I don't think I could have watched this alone" she said innocently.

      "Nah, don't mention it, I wouldn't miss this for the world. Hell I got 200 bucks ridin on this match" he said with a grin.

      "You bet on Peter!!!???" she said in disgust.

      "You kiddin me, my money's on that Orange pile of ugly over there" he said with a laugh "that poor kid doesn't have a snowballs chance in hell".

      Peter Rasputin stepped into the ring and gave the announcer an angry glare "I would appreciate it, if next time you would refrain from using such harsh words" he said patiently.

      "Whatever you say Ruskie" the ill-mannered announcer replied unremorsefully.

      The ref brough the two fighters together and began explaining the rules of the match up. The Thing looked over at the young mutant before him "Don't worry kid, this is just for charity so I won't mess you up too bad." he said with a wink.

      Colossus smiled back and replied "I too would try not to disfigure your appearance comrade, but it seems that point would be…how do you say?...moot" he said turning his back to the Thing and walking back to his corner.

      The Thing stood with his mouth open "I think I just been insulted, aaahh flippin Russian" he muttered to himself as he readied himself in the corner.

      The crowd was now at a fever pitch as the rowdy patrons began to cheer "Give 'EM what for Thing. Yeah, send that Mutie Commie back to Russia" they cried.

      The Bell rung out and the Thing glared across the ring. "Yo Metal butt, guess what time it is!? he shouted.

      "IT'S CLOBBERIN TIME!!!!"

      Fight!!!!!

              Collosus is the man. I was pissed when he only appeared for like .3 seconds in X2. Last time I checked, metal is way cooler than pebbles.

                    Ah… this is what I was waiting for. I knew this match up was going to be an exciting one. Both of these characters are very popular. I am rooting for the Thing for pretty much the same reason's as wolfwood.

                      I love Colossus. I love his design, I especially love his compassion, I love his short but memorable scene in the movie, and I cried when he had to give his life.

                      Colossus for the win!

                        You know what Rootbeer, I understand what you mean. I love Colossus as well, although I didn't really find his death all that touching, it felt very random and out of the blue. It felt as if they were using his death to try and give meaning to the horrible loose plot thread they were tieing up in the Legacy virus. The only good thing that came out of his death, has been all of the great scene's between him and Kitty since he came back. I loved the part where they had sex in the recent issue and she fell through the floor. HAH!!!!! Cause it was just that good.

                          This is an interesting match! Power House VS Power House! Rock VS Metal! Brooklyn VS Russian! I like it!

                          The Thing gets my vote. He acts tough, but inside he's a big softie.

                            Sorry very lame, but I couldn't resist. I voted for Colossus.

                                Voted for the Thing, based on Dan Slott's great book.

                                Too bad it's getting cancelled, though. :sad:

                                  Generally, I like the Thing a lot more than Colossus. In terms of power though, Colossus has a fistful of steel and would carve his name into the Thing's torso with his bare hands. The Russians win this round. By the way, I think you should have chosen Colossus for the red color on the voting chart.

                                  Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

                                    alright I am sorry, I know this one ended a couple days ago. I am at my brothers wedding right now. I will write the ending on tuesday when I get home. If anyone knows Hitman or Resurrection man and wants to put up the match up now feel free. I don't know either character at all, but I will do my best if no one wants to write it.

                                        "As we now Enter the Tenth and final round of this contest we find both of these Titanic Gladiator's are now bruised battered and broken. What can be sustaining these two giants. Where are they finding the strength to continue with this fight. Truly anyone of these men could fall and end this match up right here." the annoucer shouted these words to the roar of the crowd.

                                        With a ring of the bell the eighth round began and the two fighters made their way to the center of the ring to begin their contest a new. Colossus charged out of the corner with a resurgence of energy. Mercilessly laying into the Thing with a series of left-right combinations. The Orange slugger could barely keep his guard up. The damage from the previous rounds was beginning to show, however he was not the only one in pain. Colossus winced from a cracked rib sustained earlier in the fight and paused.

                                        Seizing this moment moment the Thing fired back with a right of his own sending Colossus down on one knee. Before the Ref could call the down Colossus was up with an upper cut that nearly took Ben's head off. The Thing also started to fall but managed to catch himself on the ropes. "You know you don't have to keep standing on my account Ruskie" he chided as he pulled himself back into a fighting position.

                                        "You are an admirable man, Comrade Grimm" Colossus answered as the two fighters circled the ring "but I will finish you with this blow".

                                        For all of his bravado The Thing could see that Colossus was winded and in pain. The Thing's eye had begun to swell up as he made for a final charge. Both fighters put all of their final energy into one last punch.

                                        Both punches landed cleanely and the shock waves shook the arena. The blows echoed through out the hall as the crowd fell silent. The two fighters fell to the floor lying on their stomachs. The ref began to count as the crowd began to cheer on both fighters "Get up. Keep going" they shouted.

                                        Benjamin Grimm lay on the ground feeling completely serene. Everything was fading and going black. Somewhere off in the distance he heard something. "What was it?" he thought. Then it became clear "4…..5.....6" Suddenly he snapped out of his trance and tried to collect himself. "Move it, you ugly son of a bitch" he cursed himself as he tried to stand up. Pulling himself up to his knees he found Colossus had also managed to shake himself out of his trance.

                                        The count continued "7......8......" as Ben finally pulled himself to his feet. The audience cheered and roared. Looking across the ring he saw the Mutant Colossus also pick himself up. The bell rung out signaling the end of the tenth and final round. Both Fighters fell into their corners exhausted by the battle that had just transpired. They waited for the judges to announce their decision.

                                        "Folks what we have witnessed here today will go down in the record books as one of the most awe inspiring match ups of this century" the man said into the microphone "However their must be a winner so I give you the judge's decision..the winner with a decision of six to four.....Benjamin Grimm!!!! the Thing" the crowd erupted drowning out the rest of the announcement.

                                        Suddenly a hush fell over the crowd as the Thing stood up and made his way over to Colossus corner. The Thing stood in front of the man he had just beat. Extending his hand he said "Ya did good kid, if you ever want a rematch, I'm here".

                                        Grabbing his hand Colossus replied "Thank you my friend, but I hope the next time we meet it will be as allies and not adversaries".

                                        The Thing pulled Colossus into the ring and raised their hands to the cheer of the crowd.

                                        Winner The Thing.
