    Yeah, but that's organised fighting within rules.

    Size is less important when it comes to street scrapping, in my opinion. Seen many a big guy knocked **** out of by a smaller guy.

    Im not saying theres not some right hard little fkers about ,but if you see a little guy give a big guy a hiding then the little guy will be a more skilled fighter then his opponent ,but if you put him against a big guy with the same skills then the big guy will nearly always win.
    Trained fighters are much more dangerous then brawlers

    Were you spying on these guys at the time, from the safety of a nearby bush?

    Some "Big" guys have never been in a fight in their lives due to other people being intimdated by their size and therefore they have no real experience of fighting and could well get their heads kicked in by a smaller guy.

    Not saying it happens all the time but I've seen huge doormen get their arses handed to them by medium sized wiry guys.

    depends on the discipline they have been trained in

    The reason black belts (for example) get beat on the street is because brawling has no rules or style

    fighting is like anything else, the more you do it the better you get at it.

    for me a small fella has probably been in more fights than a big fella so is often more dangerous

    I have seen many a guyt get knocked on his arse because he thought size mattered

    I think you'll also find that connecting the right punch can have a huge impact on any fight regardless of size, I've seen people be knocked out by people half their size just because of flukey or well placed punches how ever you spin it.

    nah I saw that bit tbh

    the main thing that leads to dfeat in this scenario for the little guy is if he is frightened by the big guy.

    He has lost before the fight has begun, otherwise there are strengths and weaknesses for both and a win for th ebigger guy is not a given

    Im not saying th 'big guy' would win every time against an equally skilled smaller fighter but surely he would the majority of the time ,otherwise what would be the point in weight classs?

    If i take boxing as an example on paper a heavy weight is gonna whup a middle weight

    however on closer inspection what you see is that although a heavy weight will almost always have a better punch a middleweight will have the stamina and guile
    so the right game plan and there are no guarantees

    weight class etc is there for many reasons these days
