I've always thought Beyoncé would be a handful in a fight, though Adele has the size, and weight, advantage on her.
As Hugh Keough wrote (Feb 1919 in 'Colliers'): “The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; but that is the way to bet.”
"A good big man is better than a good little man” is a boxing adage, popular mostly in the heavyweight division. All other things being equal, the heavier man with the longer reach will win the fight... the adage goes. It is less used in other weight divisions, where the fighters are roughly the same weight! (emphasis added).
And yet, here I go betting on Queen Bey...again!
