Boxing (Muhammad Ali, Vitali Klitschko, Lennox Lewis, Mike Tyson, Prince Naseem Hamed, etc.)
vs
Wrestling (Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, The Rock, Bill Goldberg, Andre the Giant, etc.)
vs
Martial art (Bruce Lee, Chuck Norris, Jackie Chan, Huo Yuanjia, Jean-Claude Van Damme, etc.)
Who takes?

If those are the picks, I'd go wrestling, then boxing. If you'd given MMA competitors as examples, not a group of Martial Arts movie stars and a name I don't even recognize (Huo Yuanjia), then it'd probably be wrestling/MMA. Enjoyed the boxing event I was able to attend when I went to my cousin's wedding, but ever since Lewis retired I haven't cared so much.

it depends on the martial art. the early ufc tournaments showed just how ill equiped strikers are at fighting on the ground and grappling, so that rules out the boxers. and the wrestlers have alot of size, and are probably physically tough from all the injuries theyve gone through, but i dont know how effective theyd be in a real fighting situation against a pro fighter. im inclined to go with martial artists though, simply becuase of their real world experience.
if your talking about whos more entertaining ill say wrestling. boxing is the most boring form of combat known to man, and no matter how good the combatants are, real life fighting always looks sloppy and inaccurate. there is alot to it once you have seen it enough and know how to pick up on all the subtleties, but if i just wanted to sit down and have fun id go with wrestling.

I'd have to go with Martial Arts. I've done martial arts for several years so i know it is more well-rounded than the others.

Martial Arts, as I can think of a few that are lethal.
And not to mention that I've done some before for a few years.

If it is those guys named then I give a slight edge to the wrestlers. Although the martial arts guys could take it as well. One on one, Bruce Lee could defeat all of them.

Both wrestling and boxing are very limited. Some martial arts have both strong kicks, efficient grabs, and fast punch while having great defence against any phisical attacks. And like others said, some techniques are lethal.

Wrestlers are the biggest so they should win. Also, they have hidden guns!
