[@ignatziusturret5641]

Exactly. I know middle weight and height guys. A little aged. Working a lot, doing a bit if workout. But they were fast and enduring when they were young. So, they are still in shape, but look as nothing special. THEY took and take out every "muscle" door man. So, with fight skills on par, muscles have no meaning at all. Most of the time those are slow contracting ones, just taking away stamina.

I am a small guy, about 172 cm and 69 kilos. I have been bullied, dealt with social violence, been ambushed in the street a couple of times, sparred with men and women of various sizes, including some much bigger and stronger than me. I think that what matters is how well you can function under stress, fear control. I have seen folk freeze up the first time they have been punched in the face or crumble under verbal intimidation and just not be able to cope. I think having some simple effective basic techniques really makes a difference, being able to use your body effectively like drop-stepping a jab or spear elbow, hip and body rotation on a hook or hook elbow. I think muscle can make a difference in a grappling /rolling situation. A strong person does not have to be trained, to pick you up and slam you into the ground, and that can be it. Sometimes folk can muscle out of a lock or pin, before you have it on fully, especially if you are going slow as you don't really want to break their joints, so I'd say savagery and the willingness to be brutal, to, go for the eyes or clavicle notch, to grab the ears, or larynx, or groin/inner thigh, matters, but training, whether you actually train with smashing elbows, bites, gouges, backhammer and other locks, etc, whether they are actually in your toolbox matters...sorry for the long comment, this just got me thinking

I am a retired cop. I trained heavily in several different martial arts in my younger years. I have been in a lot of street fights. I have a good deal of expertise in this subject both from the perspective of martial arts training and from the perspective of what actually works in a street fight. All of the factors that people normally mention matter in a street fight. Speed, strength, stamina, ability to take a punch, fighting skill, whether a fighter is facing into the sun, if a fighter is sick or depressed or is just having a bad day - all of these things matter. Why do people have such a hard time acknowledging that size is one of those factors that matter? It is simple physics. Isaac Newton expressed this mathematically centuries ago. Force equals mass times acceleration or f=ma. Kinetic energy equals one half mass time velocity squared or Ke=1/2mv^2 I am not an especially big guy. I guarantee that if most people looked at the actor that plays Jack Reacher and looked at me, they would choose to fight me. Heck, I would make the exact same decision.

The small guy kept his hands up in a placating but slyly defensive position while trying to extricate himself from the situation.

The small guy responded with an incredibly fast jab-cross-hook combination that knocked the big guy out cold. He then promptly left the premises.

[@jasonrottlaender1721]

There was a video of a body builder against a much smaller jujutsu trained fighter back in the 90's . No matter how much strength the body builder had he could not overcome the much smaller fighters abilities to deflect and out maneuver the much larger opponent. Leaving the body builder wasting energy and gassing out only to be beaten by a much smaller guy.

[@GuySuremill]

I was in a out numbered street fight at the age of seventeen and weighed about 75 kilograms. I was shocked at how easy I was tripped from behind by someone who sneaked up behind me. Received a good beating and was thankfully saved by the police. I gained extra muscle mass in my twenties and never been put on the floor since. I am now in my forties and use my demeanor and conflict strategy to avoid fighting altogether. Size most importantly offers a deterant and from my experience keeps you more likely to stay on your feet.

[@fastbackgt4821]

My grandfather, who was WWII vet, told me when I started weightlifting in college not to get musclebound. He was right, he had been in plenty of fights in the military, bc the more muscle the more energy it take and the less likely you are going to be fast. And the big guy doesn't have a 'plan' if he can get to the smaller guy.

Also people need to stop thinking a boxer would only punch in a street fight, its a street fight just because its their main weapon doesn't mean they will only use that.

Fighters fight how they train, they always revert to their training so don't think a boxer will all of a sudden start using street tactics or start kicking the guy in the knees unless he's trained and practices in other arts. He won't all of sudden start using Seal hand to hand, he will BOX.

the question is how much advantage, Ali was significantly smaller than some of his opponents, and somewhat smaller than most, and all though there was certainly some skill disparity, many of his oppenents were fairly competant to highly skilled. im pritty sure haney would hit the big guy often and hard enough to have him on the deck, before the big guy gets an oppertunity to leverage his weight advantage

[@MustardSkaven]

I always just got more aggressive during sparring if I got hit too much. I subconsciously always felt like "I am not throwing out enough damage for him to fear me and decrease his offensive temperament". But the first hit to the nose was a big memory. Adrenaline is a big one and I like that you called it out. Cause there is some adrenaline in a sporting fight, it can't be compared to a street fight where you fear for your life. The levels will be extremely different between fearing a loss and fearing a death. Weight does matter. Obviously. but I think the main component in a street fight is aggressiveness. Willingness to go in and inflict damage despite personal potential harm Cause our human brains are like computers. We are always calculating potential outcomes Consciously or subconsciously. And someone going all-in transforms that idea of "it's just a fight" to "I may die here".

People frequently underestimate how good pro's are. Like, the amount of time pro's spend practicing their craft is insane. Punching isn't about how strong your muscles are. That's part of it, sure, but it's more about your base and your torque. How much rotational power you can generate from your legs and transfer into your fist. He gets absolutely rocked.

This reminds me of when eddie hall punched the UFC punch meter. He trained boxing, not a pro but not a noob either. Despite being one of the strongest people on earth his score was 200k compared to Alex pereira at 190k. Showing strength can only take you so far when it comes to striking. It’s about technique and how you apply WITH your strength.

[@jakemcnally4868]

Size and strength does matter, however, ...... Excessive muscle requires excessive amounts of oxygen. An overly muscular fighter would need to end it quickly. Would potentially be slower as well. Generally speaking. Bradley, not being a professional fighter, lacks the skill set to make up for his slower movement and more limited fight endurance. Bottom Line: Bradley very unlikely to overcome Haney's skill set, speed, and endurance. Just a logical and practical opinion. :) Also - Bradley is lucky that Haney is a Tolerant and professional young man. Just sitting there and smiling at this nonsense talk.

[@SkarrGaming]

Think of the fight between The Viper and The Mountain in Game of Thrones. The Mountain is twice the size but he's so slow he can't even land a hit. The Viper danced around him constantly landing hits on him and beat him with ease. Until ofcourse at the end when he got overconfident because he thought he'd won which lead to The Mountain managing to take him to the ground and get on top of him, at which point there was no escape for The Viper.

[@gra5223]

Bradley Martin is like so many guys who think they can fight. A pro boxer will hit you 8 to 10 times before you realize where you’re at. They will repeatedly punch you in the face as you’re falling from the knockout punch.

[@inhometraineroakville1174]

If we're talking about a big dude who's not trained in fighting, he will shell up when those punches start coming. I've fought with guys bigger than me before and that's what they do. But if we're talking about a big guy who's also trained to fight, that's completely different. If all you do is lift weights, you're accustomed to moving weights slowly. That's the nature of powerlifting and bodybuilding training. Olympic lifters have more speed and explosiveness, but they're still not trained to fight. But if a bigger guy is trained to fight, then that extra size and power will absolutely make a big difference.

[@walterhartman3275]

I saw a similar situation unfold once. There was some drink involved, but all the same I think it's relevant, I knew both men so it's not a random encounter with no knowledge of the fighters. One very large guy that had knocked quite a few people out with haymakers, reputation for being hard man, he was intimidating to most. He picked a fight with an amateur boxer who wasn't near his size, hadn't boxed competitively for a few years. Both in their twenties and in good shape. The boxer did exactly as was being said in this video, as soon as he knew it was on he didn't hesitate, he hit the big guy so many times in the face with such pace and accuracy that his will to fight was gone very quickly. There was a lot of people watching and most people were quite shocked, they thought that big intimidating man was the real threat, but the real danger was in the trained hands of the nice guy they didn't even notice.

[@alfwalker5698]

I'm a retired coach, 20+ years - Muay Thai & MMA. A good big guy will almost always beat a good small guy. You usually won't see this though in mixed-weight sparring as the small guy can still use his advantages (speed, work rate & fitness), but the big guy can't use his (power & the ability to soak up shots) - because they are not trying to take each other out. But in an open fight - the big trained guy will almost always win. But an untrained big guy is different. I've coached novice fighters 100+kg who don't hit anywhere near as hard as some 65kg fighters I've worked with - simply, lack of technique, an over-reliance on their weight to provide the power, and - sometimes too much slow twitch muscle/lack of explosiveness.

[@bloodpace]

I was literally in such situation, I was a fairly big dude with no fighting experience when I first came to boxing gym (about 100-102 kg), went to my first sparring against a guy as thin as a match (but my height tho) , in my head I was tearing him apart all over the place even at the expense of pure weight and strength, but in reality I spent so much energy in emptiness during the first round trying to be active and chaising him that in the end it was hard for me to even hold my hands at chin level because my shoulders were falling off, while he didn’t even sweat much, after three rounds I was just standing like a tree eating all kinds of punches. In boxing its endurance>speed>strength, all important but not equally, i think you can understand it only the hard way, because pure strength stereotype is sitting too deep in people with no real experience against trained opponent. in this scenario it will be exact same, even worse because he is insanely big, he will be active for like 30 seconds not even a minute, then for him the fun part will start.

[@Stevef2022]

I find it interesting that people on the internet assume that professional boxers are all middle-class young men who took white collar boxing classes at Harvard and then decided to make a living as a fighter. The majority of American boxers are street fighting men from lower class or working-class neighborhoods who agree to limit their techniques based on the rules of boxing. It isn't as if they are clueless if they aren't wearing gloves. In street fights, I have used my fists, knees, and various "grab ass wrestling" techniques to great effect and I was a novice boxer who grew up in the middle-class South.

[@matthewhawkins1472]

I’m a former football player…. One of my best friends probably weighed 140-150 to my 280(I’m talking about early’90s. He was very athletic and was good at any sport he tried. He left for basic training for the army after high school and came back after being gone for about 4 months and he was a freaking machine. I wouldn’t have stood a chance in a fight with him. He was as quick as lightning and had gained probably 25 pounds of muscle and knew how to handle himself. Thankfully he had a good head on his shoulders and was a just and Godly man. I witnessed him stop afour thugs who were robbing a woman outside of a bar and one of the guys was holding a knife. He took out the armed guy before he even had a chance to finish his first threat of what he was going to do to us. I’m pretty sure he broke multiple finger of that guy and broke another’s nose before they ran away. Here I was being the gorilla scary looking guy and all I did was watch in astonishment. Fighters fight, and the rest of us best stay out of the way. By the way, I was benching just shy of 400 pounds at that time….. but that didn’t mean anything.

[@Terminal-Vet]

People who say muscles or size doesn't matter are always small guys. Did anyone see the video of Halfthor Björnsson rolling with Gordon Ryan? Why do you think they have weight classes in virtually every combat sport? Two guys who are comparable in every other way, but one is bigger and stronger than the other, the bigger guy has a huge advantage. Lifting weights doesn't mean you can fight, and neither does size, but if you are bigger and stronger, and you can fight well, you are going to be harder to beat than a smaller, weaker guy with similar skills. It's a silly debate.

Skill, pain tolerance and endurance. Lacking in any of those areas offsets the "size advantage" considerably.

Think of how you would do against a pro tennis player. Not winning a single point in a match. That guy might be bigger and stronger. Against another non-fighter who was smaller and weaker he would probably win out. But against a pro? No way.

Boxing is footwork at least as much as throwing hands. Distance control is the key to land anything substancial. Good luck with the bull charge martin. You'll need it.

[@hawk1093]

Devin Haney cant even KO guys his size. If you think he can KO a 260lb steroid head with bare hands and no wraps or gloves, before that guy can grab him and smash him like a ragdoll, you've never been around a street fight in your life. At any point during their interview Brad could get out of his chair and before Devin even knew what happened he would be getting hit with the earth. Size matters. Devin is over 100lbs smaller than Brad and that negates his boxing. If he was a grappler he would have a much better chance, but hes not. If he swings at Brad full power like hes wearing a boxing glove hes going to instantly break his hand. A boxer giving up 100lbs to a Wrestler in a street fight is a death sentence for the Boxer. End of discussion.
