About the malay boys...being fit or well built does not equal
being good in a fight. I've seen lots of bar fights where the big
guy gets totally destroyed by the small guy because the smaller guy
has a higher pain threshold, is quicker, hits the right areas, has
more balls, etc...
So just because Simon Dean didn't want to pick a fight with the
malays doesn't mean he's physically weak it just means he's
peaceful
