Today's contestants:

MATCH 1:

Yugi Muto vs. Seto Kaiba (Yu-Gi-Oh!)



"Seto Kaiba is one of the main characters of the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime. He is the older brother of Mokuba and the modern-day reincarnation of Priest Seto, himself the original keeper of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon.

Kaiba also seeks to become the world's greatest player in Duel Monsters, to accomplish this goal, he must defeat his arch-rival, Yugi Muto.

Kaiba is largely considered an anti-hero, as his motives are usually egocentric and his personality traits are selfish and arrogant, but he does sometimes help Yugi and his friends if its in his best interest." -Yu-Gi-Oh! Wiki

"Yugi and Kaiba are often shown as having extremely awesome and competitive showdowns throughout the series." -Advokaiser

Solid Snake vs. Liquid Snake (Metal Gear Solid)



"Liquid Snake, real name Eli, also known as White Mamba (Kikongo: "Nyoka ya Mpembe"), McDonell/Master Miller, or simply Liquid, was the leader of FOXHOUND during the Shadow Moses Incident. He was cloned from Big Boss's DNA as part of the Les Enfants Terribles project, along with his brothers Solid Snake and Solidus Snake. Liquid was led to believe that he had been created in order to express Big Boss's recessive genetic traits, and as such, was "inferior" to Solid Snake who supposedly had received Big Boss's dominant genes. Liquid therefore held a strong resentment towards Solid and wished to defeat him in combat, reclaiming what he felt was his birthright, and thus proving his superiority." -Metal Gear Wiki

MATCH 2:

Peyton Manning vs. Tom Brady (NFL Quarterbacks)



"The Brady-Manning football rivalry was up there with the greatest head-to-head rivalries in the history of sports.

Brady and Manning have combined for eight Super Bowl championships and a dozen Super Bowl appearances. Brady had a 11-6 edge in those matchups, but Manning was 3-2 head-to-head in the postseason.

Want the stats? Brady finished with 4,323 passing yards, 33 touchdowns and 16 interceptions in those matchups. Manning had 4,985 passing yards, 35 touchdowns and 22 interceptions." -sportingnews.com

Magic Johnson vs. Larry Bird (Basketball Stars)



"During the late 80`s, there was one major rivalry in the NBA. It was between the star team from LA, the Showtime Lakers, and the hard-working tough gang from Beantown, the Boston Celtics. These two dynasties were led by Magic Johnson of the LA Lakers and Larry Bird of the Boston Celtics. The debate about which legend was better has remained a popular one ever since. With Magics recent resignation as president of the LA Lakers, fans and critics alike reminisce about his years on the court, which cant be complete without comparisons to Larry Bird." -theperspective.com
