When I was a kid in the 50’s growing up in the Upper Peninsula of Mighgan, a hard drinking, 5 foot 6”, 300 pound pulp wood cutter decided to fight a bear of about the same size that was standing in his yard. He got the first overhand right into the bear’s nose, the bear stood on his hind legs, and , according to Sox’s wife, beat him with his paws like he was prize fighter. The bear never did try to bite old Sox, just beat him senseless and left him lying on the ground with one arm broken, a shoulder dislocated and a few teeth missing (although they might have been gone before the fight as I remember what most of those folks up there looked like back then).

I like your story a lot!

Here's another family [I can't find the link now] of the Anderson family who have a grizz named Brutus .... this is not photoshopped. I can only surmise how this will end.
