LJ is 2-3X my size and I can easily kick his ass.

Yeah, but what about before his sensitivity training?

kick my ass in a burping contest, maybe. but if it ever came to actual fisticuffs, you'd have a red ass, and excellent manners, posthaste.

the thing about the 800 lb.er is the padding. you can hit him as hard as you like, but a 200 lb man's inertia is simply insuficient to penetrate the protective layer of blubber in any meaningful way. while, even a glancing blow driven by 800 lbs would ring any of our bells. fatty has it, i say.

I agree

[barefoot serpent]

so has he been tested for performance enhancing drugs yet?

All the smaller guy has to do is get his thumb behind the big guy's eyeball and pop it out, then whack him a couple of times with a board.

[barefoot serpent]

you left out the skull fcuking

[Happy Monkey]

No the skull is used by the smaller guy's boss. He has discussions with it, to assist in plotting and planning.

Alas poor Emmanuel; I knew him, Hulk Hogan.

Assumption. Weight may affect speed, but not necessarily quickness.

Assumption. Big guys are used to moving big bulk, and over time develop huge muscles, or they die. Shaq weighs something like 325 lbs. Is he quick, do you think? In shape? Got stamina?

Here's a video of 7 lions attacking an elephant. The elephant gets away in the end. It's a girl elephant, and not one of the lions is Jinx. One-on-one, I say the lions runs away, crying like a little baby.

I still say it depends on the individuals, but average vs average, my money's on the fat guy.

All the fat guy has to do is grab the little guy, get his thumb behind the little guy's eyeball and pop it out, then whack him a couple of times with a board. Or lay on him.

That's an amazing video, Spexxvet.
Those lions were all over her, but the thing they rely on it the choking/killing bite to the throat. Can't do that to an elephant.
I'm surprised she didn't step on one or two.

I saw a similar thing on Discovery Channel recently. A bunch of lions attacked a hippo and pretty much had as much time as they needed to finish the job but coudn't even make a dent. The hippo took their best shot after best shot and afterwards just trotted off while the lions just sat there scratching their heads and staring at each other.

Note to self: don't kcuf with hippos.

Kirk would use him like a red-headed step-son.

Kirk: I'm gonna use you like a toilet, Picard, how do you want it?
Picard: Make it number 1. Please. Make soooooo number 1 that I look as yellow as Sulu!
