No matter how strong you are, skill always, always trumps brute strength.
There are no shortage of stories where skillful and experienced old fighters, probably even while dealing with acute back pain, could easily defeat muscular young men who are at the peak of their physical fitness.
It was exactly like that in my fight with Sherry Lin. Even with a smashed up right foot, I was still unable to land a single good hit on her!
Compared to mine, her skill level was like the tallest tree in the world to my cute little three-day-old green bean seedling.
However, very thankfully, her smashed up right foot also gave her just enough handicap to prevent her from tripping me up like before.
And so, our fight was surprisingly even.
Surprising in the sense that I was able to avoid getting knocked off my feet, of course.
It was definitely not surprising in the sense that Sherry Lin could still fight with only one good foot.
Her skill was beyondly godly at that point in time.
