I ran into this picture again this week thought I'd share. From a bait and stand in Texas
If you've ever had one scratch at your door...well it makes you not want to go to work/school in the morning.

I grew up in rural Montana, encountering Mountain Lions and Bobcats isnt uncommon. They seem to like to stare at domestic cats through sliding glass doors too.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all

a bait feeder filled with corn or similar feed (you can see it in the background) is used in some states to bait deer. The stand is a blind in a tree or a metal frame a short distance away.

I have no doubt that were there a way to communicate to the cat that it was a fight to the death, you would not walk away. Otherwise unless you antagonized or stimulated it's pursuit instincts you are more likely to pet it than fight it.

There is plenty of evidence of loose big cats in England. Some people want to find them. Even reliable testimonies of some being purposefully released illegally after a change in the law some decades ago. Yet sights are very few and far between with no corpses recovered. where do they go?
Big cats can certainly survive in our climate, so its by no means implausible that some will survive.
Then you get stories like this one:
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4025192/Ministry-of-Defence-hid-big-cat-sightings.html
and this
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1282333/Leopards-big-cats-ARE-loose-Britain--just-dont-tell-soul.html
What I find funny is that people expect Africans to live right next door to lions and not be concerned, let alone do anything about it Yet is words has it a Puma is on the loose in England the same idiots panic. Frankly I think we need to (re)introduce large bears and lions to the countryside to keep the rambler populations down and keep townie chavs out.

Any open space, a combat pit of some description. No stimulants. And completely naked, of course.

I'm bigger. There's no way it could get anywhere near my throat and I could snap the bastard's arms like twigs, then choke it to death.

My former brother-in-law had one of those motion sensor cameras at his deer feeder in East Texas. Tons of pictures of wild hogs, deer, racoons, rabbits, coyotes, wild dogs, skunks, and birds. Never a freaking mountain lion, though.
That's crazy!

Joey could fight a mainecoon first, then a lynx or bobcat, then a cougar, then a jaguar? Adequate training periods for each of course...like boxing.

If you can break an Elk's kneck with one punch the way a mountain lion can with a swipe of it's paw I'd say you might have a chance.
Otherwise I think you'd end up like these guys.
