 Member 4416, 1370 posts SQ 210, BP 175, DL 240625.0 kgs @ 122kgs UnEq | I remember watching in awe, as this guy lifted, many years ago. I just read an article in the Daily Star (don't ask me why) about him taking a beating recently by a couple of guys. Seems quite sad and there's a poor resolution pic of him (if it's really him) looking horrificaly injured  (Best if you have Ad Block on) https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/704020/wwe-wrestler-st... | ||

Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts | Magee was a proper physical specimen though he never really took off as a Wrestler. No shame in having your ass handed to you by six guys...as it were. | ||

 A member for 10 years and still no mouldy peanuts Member 1252, 4479 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 215485.0 kgs @ 98kgs UnEq | Billytheold said:This is why I moved away from the city. Mean people suck!

Wherever there are more than four stories on buildings it seems random acts of violence - particularly pack violence against individuals - is never far away. | ||

#biggef Member 5263, 3492 posts SQ 260, BP 195, DL 260715.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq | Horrible thing to see,wish him a speedy recovery, Although this leads me to a thought. Why do ppl think coz your bigger than average your a good fighter? I don't think being big necessarily makes you a good fighter,ok if you have to untrained guys the bigger guy may have the advantage but I've seen many big guys knocked down by a smaller opponent/attacker, putting macho bulls**t aside,most of us have probably had comments like I bet youd do well in a fight blah blah,but how many of us actually want to fight ? | ||

 doesnt work hard enough in the gym Member 1492, 2138 posts SQ 170, BP 145, DL 195510.0 kgs @ 112kgs UnEq | Got in a lot of fights in my old job, really really didn’t like being punched in the face. I think “good at fighting” skills are: Experience Skill Attitude Speed/Strength Probably in that order - being fast or strong won’t help that much if the opponent has lots of the other three. I think Tyson said “everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face” - I really hated being punched on the nose, would never do boxing or MMA for that reason | ||

Interesting Member 6186, 245 posts | Firstly I hope Tom recovers and get well soon. Cowards, six onto one is never a fair fight. I do not like to get punched in the face but where I grow up you had to stand up for yourself. A fair fight is a fair fight. No reason for violence over a parking space absolutely insane in a world where there are far more important issues than parking and traffic. Everyone has a right to defend themselves or stand up for themselves but in a argument with six people and you are one person alone it is both unfair and cowardly. I would like to have seen their reaction if six of Tom mates where with him...cowards nothing more than cowards. | ||

Size definitely helps. However, if it's not in you, it's not in you. I love the sport of fighting, but I hate street fighting. However, if it's two guys sorting out their differences one on one? I think that's ok. Most real fighters are comfortable with themselves and are more placid than many think. I think the general public thinking big guys can fight, is mostly right. If an average guy at 70kg takes on someone with similar ability at 120kg, then there 'should' only be one winner. . However, many a hard nut at 70kg would have no problem beating a much larger average guy. | ||

I've done some martial arts over the years, and been in more fights than I'd like. Everytime I wonder the same thing; what sort of individual chooses getting hit as their hobby? | ||
