Thinking back a few years to an unarmed self defense class and qualification I was at. We had an instructor, big black guy about 285 pounds, former football player. Due to his size he was a bit on the big mouth side.
We had an officer, been with the department for years, tell the big man that all the training he received wasn't wort much. This guy was 56, 5' 10" and maybe 185 pounds, a former Army Ranger. That made him 20 or so years older than big man. He said the training was weak, intended to hurt no one. Big man said, " Hey, if you can turn one of the techniques and put me down go ahead." Big, cocky and such.
Let's say big man fall hard. Must have broken his mouth since it seemed to stop working.
To this day when big man gets to running his mouth in front of a group I just say, "Call Kelly." Still shuts him up.
The older I become the more I am convinced that the voice of honor in a man's heart is the voice of GOD.

When one knows how, the more a fella weighs, the easier he goes down.

What technique did he use to bring the big man down? He ended up with big guys wrist and elbow locked, arm between little guys legs, face down on the mat with little guy sitting on the back of his shoulder. And fast, thing about a fast little guy is he will tie a big guy up so fast the big guy can't react. Seen that several times, a little guy knocking the crap out of a big guy simply because he is so much faster.
