Just shows how uneducated you are. Putin was trained kgb agent during the soviet union. You see how he looks at his current age and it doesnt take a rocket scientist to tell he could wreck the ordinary politician and dictators. Russia's whole thing is physical strength.

I stand corrected.

Putin couldn't fight his way out of a wet paper bag.

Putin is a trained KGB office clerk. His job in East Germany didn't require any skills whatsoever.

I do believe that he is good in judo, though. Or, maybe not literally good, but would almost surely be able to kill me with his bare hands. Except, of course he's quite old now, so maybe he'd just get a heart attack in the process? His body might not be in a very good condition, but judo is a thing you don't really forget.

At least it's sure that I can run a lot faster than Putin can, and that would probably give me enough of an edge. Could probably lob some heavy objects at him, then run away to find another heavy object to throw, etc. He's not an honest man or a fair player, so neither does his opponent need to be :)

You're right but I'm also assuming you're somewhat healthy and young. Compare Elon musk and putin. Or really putin with any dictator or politian, be it macron, stammer, trump, tradeu, xe Xing ping or kim jong un. For an old kgb fossil. I a 25 year old man would get absolutely wrecked by Putin in a 1 to 1 fist fight

Putin weighs 50 bucks soaking wet. He’s smaller than my grandmother. Unless the kgb teaches mean shin kicking techniques, I reckon my gran could take him.
