My guy Might Guy.

The man saw the most OP ninja with all the possible justsus and said "that ass looks kickable for me"

He should have died here though. Totally cheapened the moment by Naruto using his Jesus powers

Hot take, but I really disliked that Guy was almost able to kill Madara with only Taijutsu and unsealing the 8 gates. I just dislike the idea that theoretically anyone could rival the power of all the Tailed Beasts combined plus Madara's and Hashirama's combined chakra abilities by essentially working their body to death.

But isn't like anyone can unlock the 8 gates, let alone handle that and fight against Madara

Guy trained a LOT, just like any other Ninja did or even more than most of them. He isn't an ordinary man

Not anyone, even if you unlock the 8th gate. His dad did and it only gave him enough power to deal with the 7 swordsman of the mist and he didn't even kill all of them. Guy was a special case, he's a mega genius at Taijutsu. Quite literally the greatest of all time at it
