Steele has some disadvantages when it comes to fighting that Balto doesnt.

(Ive never seen the first movie so correct me if I make mistakes)

Size.Although Steele was strong that was a diadvantage in a way.He was larger.He could throw his weight aaround and give someone a good beating but he couldnt sqeeze into tight places.Balto on the other hand was small enough to be able to go place that Steel couln't.Also steele lives woth humans.Balto takes care of himself.Since Steele is used to relying on humans Balto is a bit stronger on that scale.

Steele was bred for sled pulling.Balto is part wolf.While Steele likes pushing others around Balto has a hidden fighting instinct that only show when he's is mad or determined.

You make some good points. Also Balto's larger paws give him an edge on slippery or unstable terrain (notably snow and ice). They give better traction and don't sink in as much (how do you think snowshoe hares got their name?).

but if it's one-on-one battle, Steele would diffnitely win. remember, He's a bully, and Balto is too-gentle outcast.

drawwolf.In the movie he would win.But say the animated balto and steele were real.(Yes I know balto is real but i mean the balto in the movie)Balto might just pull it off

You have good points here I really think Balto would win in a one and one fight, Balto weighs less, wolves are generally light weight but pack a strong punch! Steele although larger is around humans, and stray dogs often fight better then human dogs.

Very good points but don't forget the thing that ultimently proved to be Steele's undoing in the film, personilty. Balto being determined allowed him to take a beating from Steele and Steele was overconfident in himself, he believed Balto was no match for him, that caused him to make the error during the fight. Also, Steele really doesn't pay attention to his surroundings, case in point, Steele didn't see the cliff he ended up falling off of nor did he notice that boiler till his read end got burnt. Also, though Steele was able to chase Balto off earlier in the film, it was only because he had Nikki, Caltag, and Star with him. Good artical though!

9/10 times, the bigger dog wins in a fight. Which would make it a bit harder for Balto.

Iditarod, March 30, 2008 at 21: 52 Member

Yeah, but good ol' Balto could pull it off

good points balto would SO win

KrazyArc075-cwp, April 14, 2008 at 05: 07 Member

To Drawolf, Balto I know would win, keenly by going off wolf, you have a larger say 100 lbs dog vs a small 80 lbs wolf, the dog is dead. Wovles eat dogs in the real world. dog=prey. Since he is half wolf although the gentle and nice, when agressive, can be much better then a dog. My agruement is Balto in the film half wolf, having that advantage is more then enough to beat a dog dispite size. And for several reviewers for the film Balto was a wine they wanted Balto to attack Steele and win. So if a high critic says that about the fim for me from a critic view Balto is stronger. Because he is half wolf is more then enough to beat up Steele. Because what I know of wolves half of that is more then enough .

Maybe Balto could beat Steele. He's got wolf in him. And wolves attack big preys, even if they are much bigger.
