Good scrap. Don't know the back story but the winner was very respectful and humble.

Hawaiian craniofacial morphometrics: average Mokapuan skull, artificial cranial deformation, and the "rocker" mandible.
Schendel SA, Walker G, Kamisugi A.
Abstract
Craniofacial morphology and cultural cranial deformation were analyzed by the computer morphometric system in 79 adult Hawaiian skulls from Mokapu, Oahu. The average Hawaiian male was large, but similar in shape to the female. Both were larger than the present Caucasian, showed a greater dental protrusion, and possessed a larger ANB angle, flatter cranial base, and larger facial heights. Correlations in Hawaiian craniofacial structure were found between an increasing mandibular plane angle and 1) shorter posterior facial height, 2) larger gonial angle, 3) larger cranial base angle, and 4) smaller SNA and SNB angles. Of the 79 skulls studied, 8.9% were found to have severe head molding or intentional cranial deformation. Significant statistical differences between the molded group and the nonmolded group are, in decreasing significance: 1) larger upper face height, 2) smaller glabella to occiput distance, and 3) increased lower face height with deformation. The morphometric differences were readily seen by graphic comparison between groups. It is postulated that external forces to the neurocranium result in redirection of the growth vectors in the neurocranial functional matrix, including the cranial base, and secondarily, to the orofacial functional matrix. There is a possibility that the cranial deformation is a retention of the normal birth molding changes. The Polynesian "rocker jaw" was found in 81% to 95% of this populace. This mandibular form occurs only with attainment of adult stature and craniofacial form. This data agrees with the hypothesis that mandibular form is modified by the physical forces present and their direction in the orofacial functional matrix.

Common thread I see with most street fights: weather the first minute and you can pick just about anyone apart after that. Here's my blueprint.

1. avoid the inevitable sucker punch
2. head movement and footwork to draw opponent in during the first minute
3. make them walk into your jab on the outside after that until they bleed
4. Now, gassed and bloody, easy to finish

I'll be prowling the mean streets of San Rafael tonight after work to test this theory...

Thats how we used to get down here in Western Sydney, heaps of Samoans, Tongan, Fijians etc

If you have your chin tucked and see the punch coming very few will KO you unless there is a huge size and or skill difference.

My wife is Guamanian and she always tells me stories of people from the island of Chuuk- supposedly they're incredible fighters and won't quit unless unconscious.

samoans have good jaws,size and athleticism,awesome DNA.
Yep they defy physics, the small ones hit like mack trucks and the big ones move at light weight speed.

They (Polys) absolutely suck at wrestling though, over the years I did sub wrestling/BJJ I never met one that lasted more than a month before just sticking to striking classes, I think the time and technical learnings required isnt their thing plus getting humbled by skinny nerdy (looking) white guys doesnt help either.

Im talking averages here of course.
