He would have never got the arm, he would have been to hurt from being banged into the floor. He couldn't continue fighting after that fight he was exhausted.

 

I don't know why it's relevant, but it's interesting. So you say size does matter, got it.

I also dont think Royce was ever in a position that would have ended the fight if he were on concrete...

 

Would he have had more cuts/scrapes/bruises? proabably

 

But i dont think Kimo would have neccesarily won....look at the size diffrence between them...what stlye would have done better?

 

If two people have identical skill and training no matter what the stlye. the larger opponet will win...it's as simple as that.

I know that Royce had low blood sugar levels after and during that fight and that's why he was in the condition he was. Look at his other matches and he was fine after wrestling bigger and better skilled opponents.

 

What you're saying is all theoretical. Royce won. Case closed.

 

Now, what was the point of your original post ?

BJJ - Black Belt under John Will (Machado)

Shootfighting - 3rd Degree Black Belt

TKD - Black Belt

It was said by the announcers, that it was the longest anyone had kept Gracie on his feet. No point, just talking.

did you see how out of gas royce was? The street may have been different. Kimo was so crazy who knows what would have happened with no rules.

I think size matters more in competition fighting, than in a streetfight. Ring fighting is a controlled environment and you can't exactly run around to evade the attack of a bigger fighter.

Bruce Lee was afraid to fight Ali. He put his fist up in comparison to the size of Ali's and said "Look at my little Chinese fist!".

 

I kinda think that he'd have known what he was talking about. To me, it's a very obvious question. If the skill level is identical, then it must come down to physical prowess; i.e., strength, endurance, and speed. I mean, duh!

That sucks for little people and women. I think being taught to be smart and how to find psychological weaknesses in you attacker is a good way to balance the scales if you smaller. You can make the big guy lose his cool, or make him chase you and get him tired, frustrate them. I think Schools should teach these type of techniques to their students as well as MA techniques.

There really werent any rules at that point other than no biting/eye gouging...but both of those happened on various occasions.

Do all of you really think that the only advantage of Combat Martials Arts is biting and eye gouging? There's a lot more than you can imagine.
