I personally think Yamcha would win, like most of the other people, he is my favorite, and no, he is not the strongest character ever, but from what I have seen, when Tien and Yamcha did fight...I am pretty sure Yamcha took Tien down.

Yamcha has:
Wolf Fang Fist
Kamehameha
and
Spirit Ball

Tien:
Volleyball Fist [or something]
Ki Blast Cannon [TriBeam]
and
Dodompa [Dodonray]


I my honest opinion, Yamcha > Tien in this battle, Hands down.

I believe Yamcha ended up directly hitting Tenshinhan once, and need I remind you who actually won the fight?

It’s clear during the fight between Yamcha and Tenshinhan that Ten was clearly superior, and didn’t have to use his full power, which were his vast arsenal of techniques. (As shown when he fights Jackie Chun and states he’ll use his full power for a second, and uses the Taiyo-ken.)

Ok, well this Vs. is a little more tricky than the other versus, I mean even if one is stronger than the other I do not think that the stronger would necessarily win a race by foot. Wel anyways if this was a regular fight I would definitly say Tien would win, but this is a foot race. so I am going to say Yamcha.

Eventhough I have always seen Yamcha as a weak character in DBZ for some reason. I think he would win the race. I mean he does have the wolf fang fist which can give him a speed boost, and he was never really slow to begin with. As for Tien it seems that he is a bit more built than Yamcha, and that definitly can slow someone down (well in most cases) , and he never really seemed the type to have speed. Oh yeah and I almost forgot Yamcha did play sports, so I guess it could help a little lol.

I'm not quite sure where you get that Tien is not a speed type person. In Dragonball, he was big on speed, and it's not like he had any reason to lose focus on it throughout Dragonball Z.

I would have to say Tien.

I have to disagree. It has to be Tien. In dragonball, when Tien fought Goku in the last tournament, Tien said that he was proud of his speed, and his speed was on par with Goku, until Goku turned up a notch. So definitely Tien. Plus Tien trains a lot, while Yamcha gave up fighting after the Cell saga.
At the end of dragonball, Tien was faster than Yamcha, and since then, tTien trained more than Yamcha, so Tien would win

How do you know Tien trained more then Yamacha? Was it said on the series?

Yamcha gave up fighting after the Cell Saga, where as Tien trains throughout the entire series.

After dragonball, Yamcha had problems with Bulma and went into baseball, while tien trained with Chaotzu with Lunch feeding them. After that, both trained equally, but Yamcha gave up training after Buu Saga.

And another point to note is, at the end of dragonball, TIEN was FASTER than YAMCHA. Tien was the 4th fastest character (after goku, piccolo and Kami). You shud c the Tien vs Goku battle in that tournament to c tien's speed.

And, bandit background and wolf fang fist is too much of a low level skill, so its contribution to yamcha's speed is negligible compared to the speeds they reached in dbz..u dont c yamcha using his wolf fang fist against saibaman!

And Tien explicitly states to goku(at the end of db), that goku may overpower him, but he cant match his speed, which he is proud of. Yamcha was much weaker than tien at that time.

And in dbz, the more training u go through, the faster u get, training , stength and speed were all proportional until the cell games saga.

and about the battle being close, it depends on the timeline. if it is in buu saga, tin hands down. if it is cell saga, tien hands down. if it is frieza saga, close. if it is saiyan saga, close. dragonball, tien hands down.

Tien said Goku couldn't match his speed, but Goku proved him wrong once he took off his weights.

Also, Yamcha gave up training after the Cell Saga, not Buu Saga.

If it was a pure sparring match, Tien would lay waste to Yamcha, but I agree that Yamcha always seemed more speedy than tien.

In my opinionI always liked Tien the best out of all the Earthly characters like Krillin,Yamcha,etc.
