Gordon Ramsay vs. Anthony Bourdain. Steel cage match. Who wins?
Chef Ramsay can dish out the abuse to a bunch of wannabes, but I doubt he could eat a warthog anus served al dente and walk away like Chef Bourdain once did in Namibia.

4. Bourdain
Bourdain would win, while Ramsay was busy screaming at someone.

6. In a physical fight, I'd give it to Ramsay.
In any other competition- Bourdain.

11. Umm, you do realize that Ramsay was recruited to play soccer professionally?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Ramsay

"Ramsay played football, was first chosen to play under-14 football at age 11, and was chosen to play for Warwickshire at age 12. His football career was marked by a number of injuries, causing him to remark later in life, "Perhaps I was doomed when it came to football". In the summer of 1984, Ramsay was being actively scouted by Scottish club, Rangers, the club he supported as a boy, when he seriously injured his knee, smashing the cartilage during training. Ramsay continued to train and play on the injured knee, tearing a cruciate ligament during a squash game. He never fully recovered from the double injury and was told by Rangers that he would not be signed, suggesting that he could sign with a club in a lower division. By this time, Ramsay's interest in cooking had already begun, and he chose to take on this new challenge, rather than be known as "the football player with the gammy knee".

18. Yes, I did know that
That was a really tough break for him, but I'm glad he found another vocation. Ramsey is obviously very passionate about food, and it shows on Hell's Kitchen in its own abrasive way.

15. Steel cage match of what?
Cooking?

Fighting?

Eating?

Cooking: Ramsay, easily.
Fighting: Ramsay, even easier.

Eating:
Bourdain could out eat Ramsay because Bourdain has the ability to shovel the local offal down his gullet and not, like Ramsay, say 'your food is SHIT!'

16. Paula Deen, who will eat the loser...
and maybe even the winner, if she can find enough butter and bacon.
