>>9974317Underneath 100 lbs of blubber lies the musculature of an otherwise regular person who has to hauls 100lb of weights around every waking day of their life. Being a fatass will make you slow and tire quickly, but your physique acclimates to moving that weight around "well enough" (unless you're so fat you can be on TV for being so ridiculously fat) for daily use, and a proper punch with a shitload of bodyweight behind it is something not to be fucked with. I've seen a fat as fuck bouncer at a club sling his fist through the air with his entire bodyweight behind it; his fist carved a path through space and anything in it's path that wasn't a solid wall or firmly bolted to the floor made fucking way, violently. Also, a kick or stomp from a fatass is legitimately terrifying, their legs are generally very well developed out of having to support all that fucking weight. Being heavy and having body mass also helps with things like just not letting someone past you, forcing your way through someone, or forcing someone to the ground which is why linemen in non-pussy football tend to be Jabba the Hut-esque.
Sure, you can outrun them for a block and then they're out of breath and you don't have to fight them, and if it's the kind of fatass that literally just goes from bed to desk every day with as little movement as possible, nothing I said applies. Plus, it's terrible for their health, of course. It'd of course be more optimal to pack on the equivalent muscle without all that fucking fat in the vast majority of cases. Their same weight in a more reasonable bodyfat percentage will usually fucking kill them if necessary, but there's some things that you get out of simply having and dealing with mass. Most guys I know wouldn't fuck with a fat guy if he didn't look like the type that's perpetually winded, but the kind that looks like he works blue collar.
