How do you fight someone who's bigger than you?

Answer 1

Kick them straight in the nuts. That puts any man down !

Yes, a swift kick in the nuts works, but it also depends on the circumstance. If you are truly afraid for your life, punch them in the throat (not with a fist, with your knuckles curled on you fingers), if it is a simple schoolyard fight DON'T DO IT ! It can be a fatal shot. Use your smaller size to out speed your opponent. Stay out of range, if he out weights you, he is stronger. Good luck

Answer 2

You know you are fighting someone bigger than you so when you get the chance run like HELL.

and if you cant....

Kick him in the guts give him a black eye and then you will get the chance to run like HELL!

The last contributor didn't seem to be helpful :/. I'll give it a shot. You need to know your opponent when fighting someone bigger than you. It's good to know what your opponent is and isn't good at before ANY fight, but if you aren't able to learn anything about him, there is the first ten seconds of a street fight that I call "the feeling out period". You may learn the hard way, but for 10-30 seconds,you need to judge your opponent's reach. If he's taller, 90% chance his arms are longer. Find how fast he punches. If he swings slow you may want to stay all the way out of his reach. Jump in and out, mixing up strikes. If he hits fast, stay all the way in his face. If he's stronger you will have to be careful he can't get a hold of you so even the first option may have to do. If you guys know you're going to fight, one of you isn't going to start it off with a cheap shot, then MAKE THE FIRST MOVE...Biggest mistake you can do in fighting a bigger/stronger guy is waiting for him to swing first. One well placed shot can change the tone of a fight, everyone has a puncher's chance. Aim for the two key places, nose and jaw/chin. Hits to the nose make your eyes water up. No matter how tough you are. When people are KO'd in MMA, it's due to getting hit on the chin or jaw 90% of the time due to cerebral cncussion and pressure points in the jaw. Getting hit in the jaw can be very dizzying. Best of wishes..I am fighting a biggr opponent this weekend :)

P.S Make sure if it is a boy kick him in the the nuts then run like HELL! And if it is a girl and she is bigger than you pull her ,punch her at the same time on the back then run like HELL!

Answer 3

Luck. Basic rule of fighting: a good big guy will whip a good little guy nearly every time. They have more reach, punch harder, and take punches better because they carry more muscle. Sometimes you can tire them out, but it's still hard to win.

On the other hand, boxing is a fairly limited practice. Boxers tend to be set in their ways, because they're constrained by strict rules. Good foot techniques and grappling will give you an edge. Keep it low, and fight dirty. If you don't understand what I'm talking about, don't pick any fights until you do.

being a bigger person myself, i would know what would work and what wouldnt. First, stay away. Most big ppl are not good strikers so they will almost always grapple and use weight as an advantage, unless they are trained fighters. just one punch at a time and then jump back out. they more than likely get frustrated and start insulting you trying to get you to move in.

Try not to simple back away in straight lines. Sooner or later, your back will be against a wall or a corner and you'll be boxed in for a slugging match. Back away diagonally, or circle around, preferably to your left (which weakens his right arm). Being a bigger guy, he has a relative disadvantage in circling effectively/efficiently, so your ability to weaken his right hand's punching power evens the odds. That said, don't move predictably, because if he knows where you'll be going, he can compensate and cream you.

Just use your speed and move your head so you have less of a chance of getting hit

He has the advantage in strength, reach, and toughness. So you need to beat him with speed, stamina, and technique. As mentioned above, if both the little guy and the big guy are trained fighters, then the big guy is heavily heavily favored to win. It's not a fight you want to have.

Answer 4

Accuracy and speed, and a mentality of wanting it to end as quickly as possible.
