All fighters of equal skill in a real fight and all arts from the best of the best schools, I'd have to say the Jujitsu practioner would rule. This is my opinion based on the fact that out of the 3 arts mentioned this is the most wholistic of them.

My Kung Fu teacher told me this when he looked at my arms, "AHHH-- big muscle! No need!" For us, it's all about redirecting your oponent's strength against him. Seemingly, the stronger he is, the stronger you are.

 

HEY, CONGRATS ON THE NEW BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

The patch or crest worn by Isshinryu karateka often raises admiration and curiosity. The patch is based on a day dream Tatsuo Shimabuku had in the fifties while he was creating his karate style. This dream was the missing piece in the puzzle called Isshinryu. The patch is often incorrectly called Mizu Gami, which means 'water goddess'. Originally the Isshinryu emblem was called 'Isshinryu No Megami', which means 'Goddess of Isshinryu'. The goddess is the Goddess of Isshinryu karate and not the goddess of water.

Not sure what people think. but you get people who are close to the same technical skill level. Size and strength do play a factor in that.

 

What are all your thoughts on it?

As for the size and strength issue, that certainly comes into play, and can definitely provide the edge in an otherwise even fight.

Anyone who dismisses size and strength as important in a fight is being foolish. There is a reason that weight divisions exist in combat sports such as boxing, judo, sambo and bjj.

Size and strength are VERY important, unless you are incredibly skilled. Take my 5 ft 2 160 lb Kung Fu teacher for example. He can kick my 6 ft 1 200 lb 13 years of Karate training * all over the place whenever and however he chooses. Don't say that I must suck, or something then; how do you explain all of the pictures of frail old men throwing trained practitioners around like dolls? Do you think they can bench 300 lbs?

You must suck. ;)

 

Seriously, size and strength DO make a difference, no matter what. However, when you're THAT skilled...the other guy needs to be about 10 feet tall and weigh 800 lbs. :D
