Size, strength, speed. They all matter. That is why people train in martial arts - to try and negate the advantages those attributes give an opponent.

Behold, I see my father and mother.
I see all my dead relatives seated.
I see my master seated in Paradise and Paradise is beautiful and green; with him are men and boy servants.
He calls me. Take me to him.
Nope, poor Bruce is too dead to fight Bob Sapp.Originally posted by Ghostface

No. Size doesn't matter. Neither do speed, skill, power, conditioning, style, fatigue, weapons, or anything else.
I started a whole thread on this topic recently, but for some reason it was deleted.

First you get good, then you get fast, then you get good and fast.
i didn't know it got deleted.
i tried to follow it, but then people kept arguing about stuff i wasn't motivated enough to learn about.
where's my beer?
I think the "Size Doesn't Matter" thread is still out there somewhere. The one that got deleted was "Speed and Skill don't matter either."
It's about the stupidest topic I can imagine for an MA board, and I just felt like mocking it.

It doesnt matter, as long as your chi is not blocked, of course.
if i come up against a larger assailant i simply squirt them with puss from my naughty places.

it always ends up being page after page of everyone arguing about everything they agree on if that makes any sense.

Size and other physical attributes do matter.
If it is a advantage or not depends what you do.
Boxers need good muscle mass, tri and bicep to throw heavy punches.
However, most of the Kung Fu attacks are to the soft spots of the opponent. In that case, you do not need a huge muscle mass to inflict serious injuries.
You only have to do it fast and accurate.
Hell yes it matters. Would you rather fight someone exactly like you, or someone exactly like you except with 50 extra pounds of muscle?

Here is where the misinformed comes in and says "someone exactly like you but with 50lbs more muscle would be really slow and stiff and easy to defeat."
