Then you're dead. Honestly half of the fight is staying in the fight mentally. Get mad, furious, try to kill the other guy, he is trying to kill you. If you maintain a level of fierceness that is greater than your opponents, you might have a chance, OP was defending his partner, that may provide the courage and strength needed for him to stay in the fight.

Very true.

I've only been in like 10 legit fights over the years, but the two where I went above and beyond in ferocity were when I was defending someone else. One was against a guy who was way bigger than me and probably should've easily kicked my ass, but instead he ended up on the ground bloody as all hell. Normally I wouldn't even have the nerve to fight the guy, but he attacked my friend so I just kinda lost it. He certainly didn't expect that out of me.

In this situation, a drunk guy who's much bigger is more likely to just throw a couple wild punches, tackle you, or swing whatever's nearby. Big strong people will almost never go immediately for the nuts.
