I've never been intimidated by a seven year old before

But you know what? I admit, not only could this kid easily take me down, she's scary-intense.

I don't know. I'm not claiming the kid doesn't have skills. But, like, part of hitting hard and sticking your blows is having inertia. And that kid can't weigh more than fifty pounds. She might take you if she had surprise on her side, but you have a natural advantage in size, strength, and reach. Not to mention having more experience under your belt.
I mean, speakin just for myself...like, never even minding kid me, I think I could kick the everlovin out of twenty-year-old me, if only because I'm so much more spiteful and creatively horrible now than I was back-ass then. And let's not even get into how many kung-fu movies and wrestlemanias I've seen in the last decade...my knives are sharper now than they ever was.

That's what she wants you to think. And then she will exploit your weaknesses.

Pffffft. My primary weaknesses are alcoholism, agorophobia and father issues. I defy a f*ckin seven-year-old kung-fu girl to exploit that biz in a melee battle.
I mean, one doesn't think about this, but most of my job is just hurling fifty-pound objects around (sometimes two at a time), plus standard-issue retail-work hatred of everything that has ever existed. Like, no matter how fierce or tough the tiny little kung-fu girl is, I have to think that she loses in a fight to me at least nine times in ten.

Er....my art is better. She has to be very close for those blows to be effective. She aims to strike body or head, we weaken arms and legs first. I, also, have longer reach....

But how many two year olds can you take out?
(explicit language don't click on this if you're under 18 your ears will explode)

Her kata game is better than mine ever was. I'd take her in unarmed combat, but I'd be a little worried about her going all Prince Oberyn on me with a weapon.

How many clones of that kid do you think it would take to kill a grizzly? Five hundred? No more than one thousand, they'd wear it out with sheer numbers.
