This is not something I would ever do I'm just wondering in theory. My friend is 6'4 and I am 5'6. We are both fairly solid. As for what we are built like if anyone has seen cool hand luke I am built like Luke and my friend is built like George Kennedy's charcater. What does everyone think?

Height means nothing, standup fights just dont happen. Most fights end up being either a wrestling match on the floor, that and most real fights start with shoving or sucker punches.

From experience its the little guys you have to look out for, they pull out more weird tricks and have more to prove.

Umm, whoever is willing to go farther to win will win. He may be bigger, but if you really wanted to kick his ass, I'd suggest reading up a little on the human body and it's weaknesses. Overall strength is a big factor don't get me wrong, but it takes much more than brute strength to win a fight.

Not if lifting 50lbs strains you to the point of exhaustion. Two sides, to every coin.

Little guys have to learn weird tricks or continue to get their bust kicked. :nerdy:

Haven't seen the movie but it really depends on how fast your friend is. If he's taller and just as fast or faster than you, then he has the advantage.

I'm sure there's midgets out there who can beat a 6"4 guy to the ground.

Are we talking a fair fight here? :lol: If you were to sneak up on him with a bat I am going to say that you could most probably win... especially if you waite untill he is sleeping.

In a fair fight though, well only one way to find out, suggest you take a course of some self defence together and see what happens.

Good luck :lol:
