Taja is weak

Okay,I know somebody has posted a message stating the opposite,but I had to post my opinion.Let me elaborate:
Physically,Taja is the weakest character in the entire series.Combatwise,Taja was about average.She had one or two flashy moves,but that's about all.Her fighting moves were generally basic punches and kicks,and weren't really that powerful.Of course,I haven't watched this series in ages,so I'm just going with what I remember.The one fight scene which proves my point,is the one from Cold Victory where Taja and Siro fought Sian.At one point of the fight,Sian focused on Taja,and really hit her hard.Her head was knocked backwards,and then Sian kicked her across the left cheek,sending her flying.Any thoughts?I still think that she's hot though!!!Any thoughts?

Sian tore Kung lao up one time, so her knocking out Taja can be justified.

I'm confused.Sian tore up Kung Lao?Don't you mean the other way around?How is it justified?

[–] fullenw 18 years ago

One episode (cant remember which exactly) Kung Lao fought Quan chi's slaves. He beat 2, but Siann (who I beleive is the redhead one) gave Kung Lao a run for his money.

What I'm saying is, if Siann can push the reigning MK champion to the limit, its understandable for Taja to have trouble with her.

Granted it was 3 on 1.

Well,she's really not that hard to beat.In fact,I bet I could beat her.I'm an orange belt and I'm pretty sure I have a better knowledge of martial arts than her!!!

Taja was definetily one if not the weakest fighters on the show. I miss this show though lol.

Well,at least she was cute and had a great body.The one thing that really disappointed me is that we didn't get to see any frontal nudity of her in Cold Victory.Are there any behind-the-scenes photos of that episode on the internet?

kristenna loken may not appear strong in the shows, but this has be said in her other movie, Terminator 3 when she went one on one against Arnold Swarzengger...
Arnold was been gentle to her in the one on one epic battle but she told him she can handle it and asked him to do things harder on her. she's one tough woman to handle the giant like arnold swarzennger.

Yeah,but she only did martial arts training when she made that movie.She had no knowledge of martial arts when she did this series.
