Big doesn't matter in a fight. One well placed blow to the windpipe will down a 300 pound man just like it will a 100 pound man. Knowing that is what matters in a fight.

Sure, happens in the movies allathetime. In real life, however, it's an entirely different story. I've seen some brutal fights in my life and it is never like the choreographed mayhem that Hollywood produces.

If size doesn't matter, why are there weight divisions in boxing and wrestling?

As the saying goes, the race is not always to the swift, but that is the way to bet. Given equal ability, a bigger man will routinely win the fight.

Why do you think Sam Colt is remembered as the man who made men equal? Before firearms, the larger man almost always won the fight.

They have to be tall enough to "reach" said windpipe.....

Littlemans disease is a bad thing just as big outta shape fat guys throwing their weight around is. This entire episode was two big mouth dumb@sses in too small a space IMHO. No one deserves to die for such a reason but if ya get hit with what ya bring to a fight be it words, fist's or bullets......be prepaired and understand there is one winner and one loser and in most cases all parties are the losers in more ways than one.

Walk Away if at all possible, standing your ground any place other than your home is sheer insanity in this day of litigators and criminal animals.

If ya can't walk away and your life is in danger then get medevil mean and ........Stay Safe !

Junta was sentenced accordingly. His previous record could not be brought into the trial. The Judge was allowed to consider his previous record. In 1991, Junta's wife had a restraining order on him for beating her with his fists on several occasions in front of their children. He was also arrested for assault and battery on a policeman. He paid a fine and was put on probation for a short time.

While Costin was not an angel, he did not deserve to die. Your analogy is flawed, at best.
