anyone who thinks SIZE doesn't matter in a fight in a DUMMY

[American_Maniac]

Skill and size both matter in a street fight. But for all these people saying size doesnt matter at all, thats just ridiculous. You do realize that its easier for a larger person to take one of your shots compared to someone your size? and when a larger person hits a smaller person the impact is even more effective. Think of a little kid punching you in the chest, then think of a guy 6'3 at 230lb. Also 'mass x speed = force' so the heavier the person the more force behind their strikes. Remember both skill and size matter.

gonna be who has been in those high adrenaline situations before and sparring is not one of them. Its who can keep their composure when fighting for their life in a street fight.

pretty much this, if some well trained fighter came at you in some ****ty slum in africa, are you going to spread your cheeks for him?

[ckbe]

mostly manlets trying to feel better about themselves but they just gotta realize to accept the hand they got dealt.

6' 205 lbs athletic dude vs a 5'5 155 lbs athletic dude with a bjj brown belt would be murder in a street brawl.

I don't plan on fighting so it's all gravy.

u mad?

[xpin2winx2]

size matters alot. but there are circumstances where it does not. If you cloned a fighter but made him 20 pounds larger. His clone would most likely win 9/10 times/

[Dreyth]

If size matters exactly 0%, then please explain the need for weight classes.

inb4 ppl think I'm saying size matters 100%

[antoniobigpunch]

its not size but STRENGTH that is the factor. you need strength to move fast, strong legs you can dance on r what wins the fight. watch out guys.

[Mythicbrah]

People get it twisted. The laws of physics are always there. Of course size matters. Does that mean a big dude will win a fight vs a smaller one? Nope Different weights and sizes require different methods and strategies.

[bigkarl]

of course it matters, but strength definitely trumps size. and if you think that a 200 lb bodybuilder ***got would beat a bjj brown belt, you're a ****in moron.

[BalkanPrince]

You talking about size as in muscle mass and weight or size as in height and reach?

I think the way it goes is size does not matter if the bigger guy is not trained in fighting and the smaller guy is. So if a smaller guy is a boxer or just a good fighter, and the bigger guy is just an average joe and has no experience in fighting, then size is not relevant.

However if a bigger guy IS trained and/or knows how to fight and so is the smaller guy, the bigger guy is the favorite to win the fight (Hence, formation of weight classes). Strength is needed in fighting also because there is a 90% chance that there will be some grabbing involved and attempting to bring someone down. So the stronger guy will easily win in that respect and in for dat dere ground and pound. Arm length and height is also crucial.

It matters but not that much. See a 5'10 1/2 knocking the **** out of a 6'4'' tower. Both profesional fighters.

Should be "Anyone Who Thinks Size Doesn't Matter in a Fight IS a Dummy" Joke's on you fool.

[amerikansjc]

My buddy a few years back is about 5 '4 probably 155 but he is a seriously good boxer. I was with him at a party when this guy (6'1 220lbs) put a cig out on this chick that my buddy came with(it was on accident.) Big guy got dropped so quick and hard I didnt think he was going to stand back up. You never really know who will win in a fight. It only takes one good hit to end a fight.

[d4mn3d]

small guy could easily get the tall guy in a leg lock, break his leg, then proceed to smash his face in the concrete. u mad?

OR the tall guy could just utilize his longer legs and kick the **** out of the smaller one before he gets a chance to close in.

[FreakyEmpireBP]

all you idiots are thinking about fights in the ring/cage with RULES and order

so im assuming most you knuckleheads have never been in a street fight where everything you learn in bjj or muy thai factory belt schools go out the window

In a fight on the streets with no rules, the smaller more skilled guy can just kick you in the nuts idiot. Fight over when you get a muay thai guy kicking you in the dick... idiot.

[FreakyEmpireBP]

It only matters with two elite level similarly skilled athletes.

The problem is, the misc is full of idiots whose only fighting experience is when they're drunk at a bar, who think they can beat up professionals who fight for a living.

[laminads]

thats like me saying overeem could kill "insert any manlet"

no youre saying "size and skill could kill no size no skill" which is not quite the same thing.

Moron.

[Jhawth]

how can it not matter?

Two guys exactly same skills one has 50lbs on the other, who will win?

whoever fights better.

The better fighter will win regardless if hes taller or shorter than his opponent. In the end it comes down to skill. Arguing like a bunch of pre-schoolers about size is stupid. Street fights with people who have no training are garbage anyways. just a bunch of flayling arms and someone lands a lucky punch. does not make you alpha.

[YIAMSOMEBODY]

OP has never wrestled/grappled before....you can tell.

[Hucking_Fell]

SKIP TO 1:30 and watch for 20 seconds

a big guy can own a little guy
a little guy can own a big guy

stfu op you cannot say size matters 100%

Lmao This.

OP you are deluded. I train boxing (not tapout, I only train tapout on weekends in my shirt) and it all comes down to reactions and punching power. What you bench etc will do little in terms of your punching power, that comes down to EXPLOSIVE power and is a completely different ball game. In the heat of a fight, if the little guy has much better explosive power his punch will do a crap more damage than the far stronger bigger guy. LMAO at you thinking being much stronger in the gym means your punch will do far greater damage.

IRL OP states all this bull**** but would **** himself if a smaller guy picked a fight with him.

Tyson ****ing says it himself but ofc Miscers who have never been in fights like OP will chip in thinking they know everything about it. Typical Miscers.

Nicky Santoro,

Before he got bang on the ******* of course.

[FreakyEmpireBP]

its funny how little respect people have for people who are trained... think about this

a man who lifts compared to a man who doesnt lift, the difference in strength is night and day

the same goes for a man who trains to fight vs a man who does not. the gap in skill is enormous.

so why is the ability of a man who trains to fight not taken into account when your making a comparison against a man who doesnt train to fight?

ill tell you why, because the OP has no idea what hes talking about
obviously weight is a factor, so is height, so is skill, experience, strength, speed etc. there are tons of factors, but a trained man has an advantage an untrained man doesnt. period

This is because OP has likely never trained in a martial arts before.

He's the same thing, as a delusional fat guy who has never lifted weights before who thinks he can bench press 315 lbs the first time.



They're are men 125 lbs who are deadlifting 600 lbs, so they're are guys that small who have stronger lifts then 95% of this forum, what makes these people think that a guy that size who dedicated himself to fighting and is an elite level fighter is not going to whoop their ass?

[br7685]

small guy with brown belt in bjj would win easily you fcking retard

haha this, what a ****ing idiot , BRUCE LEE

[lskandar]

lol the 5'5 brown belt would take his back and put him to sleep in under a minute.

[Stringer-Bell]

sounds like someones mad because this ISNT the truth and he's trying to change peoples perceptions....

"size doesnt matter in a fight in a DUMMY"

oh the irony....

[SkinnyAlbo123]

Doesn't really matter, unless I'd be fighting some1 5'8< lol, I'd beat that ******* using no limbs.

[sovietrussia15]

itt OP got the sht kicked out of him by some 5'8" dude, posts thread to try and repair his destroyed ego, fails miserably

next

[Jogg]

Just because you are trained in a certain type of martial arts or some **** don't mean you can fight on the street. I literally had some come up to me at a bar just before christmas, and tell me how they could 'tap me out in 4 seconds'. Strong likeliness is that he wouldn't be able to and even to he came close I'd either bite the kunt or try put my fingers in his eyes.

[JMills87]

When I was in Las Vegas I beat the sh!t out of Mike Tyson and Kevin Federline
