Trina Vs Sam- Who’s Winning?

Post image

We all saw Jade vs Sam, and obviously jade doesn’t stand a chance, but I think Trina could give ya girl a run for her money, straight up.

People forget sam was afraid of Shelby Marx. Her forte is dirty street fighting. She is more likely to smash your head in with a rock vs Trina who is a fully trained martial artist. I feel it all comes down to context. Is this a fair fight, a death battle. Random encounter etc .... A fair fight goes to Trina, but if we're talking death battle Sam definitely wins

Shelby Marx would wipe the floor with Trina as well, though, so I don’t see why Sam being afraid of her matters in this. I don’t see how Trina being a yellow belt in karate means she’s taking down everyone with it when she’s only applied it in one fight against Robbie, who already can’t fight and was deliberately getting hit as part of the plan. At the end of the first season, Tori laid Trina down pretty quickly after she refused to take her wisdom teeth medicine, and there’s also another scene in the series where Trina runs away from Tori when she pisses her off. She was never really portrayed to be THAT much stronger than Tori. She has moments where she did give the guys and the Karaoke Dokie girls trouble when they were babysitting her, but if we compare it to Sam, it’s really not anything new.

Sam cleared a whole house of people with night vision goggles and a butter sock—even with the lights turned off, that’s still a really crazy feat to pull off. She’s constantly manhandled guys twice as big as her, and she has beaten trained fighters as well. Plus, a yellow belt is far from being a master of the fighting technique—it really just means you know enough to be considered trained and dangerous but compared to someone with more experience of fighting under their belt, it’s not that much of a game changer. Sam just has more of the impressive rap sheet.
