    How do you fight someone that's bigger than you?

    You see, I've always been physically above the people I was around.

    I'm slightly taller than average ( my dad's a whooping 1.90 but he had to marry a midget and I sufferred for it ) and much more broad shouldered than the average lad.


    However, I'm going to be up against a guy that's way heavier and about as tall. The weight difference is mostly fat, though, if that counts.

    Since my usual tactic is overpowering through brute force and I can't exactly do that now, how do you deal with such an opponent?

    are you boxing or something or is this like an all out meet-me-under-the-watertower-at-3-oclock type fight?

    you can always hide a small canister of pepper spray in your off-hand and then spray him in the eyes like its the final fight in Bloodsport

    He's going to fuck up one of my buddies and I'm not going to let him take the fall.

    Yeah it'll be a street fight. The guy's pretty fat, doubt he knows how to fight either.

    Nut shots or pepper spray then, unless you're against fighting dirty.

    Don't let them get near you of course, otherwise they can literally just sit on you and you won't be able to do much unless you can push him off.

    As Oberyn Martel said, It doesnt matter how big you are when you are on your back. Basically sweep the leg.

    And don't go on their back, otherwise they'll just lay down on you.

    Also fat people have weak joints, a kick to the side of the leg, shatter his knee and he will stop fighting back.

    Kinda brutal, but if he pulls a weapon or something shatter that knee.

    Always let the bigger guy swing then counter, especially if he's fatter/heavier. Don't swing first against a bigger guy unless you are guaranteed to hit.

    Don't put yourself in that position in the first place.

    Seems like such an obvious answer. When fighting someone bigger and\or stronger, you fight better. Or maybe you just have more fight in you then they do. You know the old saying, Not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.

    Clearly too late to get any training now, so guess it's just a matter of who wants it more.

    Constant body blows, senor. Works every time if you know your pressure points.

    bring more friends, no such thing as a fair fight, let him know he messes with one he messes with all
