Assumption. Weight may affect speed, but not necessarily quickness.

Assumption. Big guys are used to moving big bulk, and over time develop huge muscles, or they die. Shaq weighs something like 325 lbs. Is he quick, do you think? In shape? Got stamina?

Here's a video of 7 lions attacking an elephant. The elephant gets away in the end. It's a girl elephant, and not one of the lions is Jinx. One-on-one, I say the lions runs away, crying like a little baby.

I still say it depends on the individuals, but average vs average, my money's on the fat guy.
