Am I considered a small guy?

Posted at: 2015-04-20 
weight dosen't mean much in a fight , if you learn to fight you could beat guys a lot bigger than yourself

Your an inch above average though your a bit lean which is fine you could fight at Middleweight

Add strength training

You're a middleweight and your height would be just average.

No obsolutely you wont be considered as a small guy

No, that's about average probably. Definitely not small.

I am a male, 20 years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall, and weighing 164 pounds, with low body fat. I recently started learning Karate about a month ago, and plan on continuing for another year. If I dedicate myself to the art, can I defend myself successfully on the streets if the situation arises, say, from a man at least 20 pounds bigger than me? Please use some personal experiences on people you know or yourself successfully defeating a bigger man in self-defense, sparring, competition, or etc. (don't use the UFC, please). Am I considered a small guy? What other martial arts should I consider learning after Karate, for someone like me?
