Dont think it would’ve gone down so quick but He wasnt so stupid to turn it down.
Without strife, your victory has no meaning.
Without strife, you do not advance.
Without strife, there is only stagnation. -

Seagal would have won, easily. The reason you don't see aikido in mma is because it is banned for being too deadly. I have a lot of respect for Seagal turning down that fight. Van Damme would have been in danger of losing his life.

The philosophy of Aikido is centered on harmony (Ai), spiritual strength (Ki), peace, and following the Aikido way (Do). The art’s philosophy is to meet a physical attack with the avoidance of violence by seizing control of the situation and neutralizing the attack with an outcome where no one is hurt.
Kind of a moot point though. According to the philosophy of aikido Seagal won the fight by declining it.
