BLUE DUCK vs. CHEROKEE JACK IN A FIGHT?


Hello to All,
Much as I enjoyed Dennis Haysbert's performance as Cherokee Jack, I've got to say that in a no holds barred shoot 'em up I think Blue Duck would kill Jack pretty quick.
Any thoughts?

I agree, Blue Duck would slaughter Jack in a straight fight, but as we know Jack prefers ambushes like he done to Walker, even though walker put up a hell of a fight and wounded Jack,he prefers to end it quick inwhich case he might have advantage over Duck, hell in a straight fight, Walker and Blue Duck could eaisly kill Cherokee Jack, also i thought Dennis Haysbert was very good as Jack.

Jack was no doubt ONE BAD ASS. I admit he even scared me a little the first time I watched the movie. But I have to agree with you that, mean as he was, Blue Duck would've killed him in a fight. Remember the scene from Lonesome Dove (talking about the original) where he surprised Roscoe in the dark simply by stepping into the moonlight and quickly plunging a knife into his chest. Roscoe had no idea he was anywhere around. That's how skilled Blue Duck was at hiding, like a rattlesnake under a bush, ready to strike at the next squirrel that scurries by.

Exactly. Cherokee Jack would never see Blue Duck coming.
