Do you have a bigger advantage over somebody else in a fight if you are taller or heavier than they are?

Personally, I think weight is more important.

Height can be an advantage, but is usually a disadvantage... Weight can also be your downfall. You may have more leverage, but at the same time, you move slower, so it's also a disadvantage... It depends on how you work with what you've got.

Well, if you're very tall, but skinny as a rail, you probably couldn't take anybody down, physically. But if you have a medium or stronger build, then having a height advantage could definitely help - also because you have a longer reach, generally.

I think height. Because a person could be a big fat guy or a tuff guy. But a elbow to the nose or a punch into the middle of chest or throat is sometimes a knockout or at least a damage dealer.

weight more than heigh if your comparing, cuz the  taller guy with the bigger reach  might get the first shot but youll never get knoced out in one unless your a a copmlete wuss. but if the heavier guy can get the guy down its prob over unless the smaller guy is really feisty. its more if you know how to fight though then stats though

Short people can go for the knees. Weight is a bigger advantage.

Your all wrong. You need a combo of the two. But if i had to pick i would rather be short and heavy.You would hit a lot harder. And the trick on fighting tall people is getting right up on them, then your so close to them they cant extend there arms out all the way thus stoping them from throwing a good punch. But in all honesty Height or weight neither matter, It depends on Experince of fighting. And judging by your question i say you dont have much and are in for a ass whiping.
