Strength doesn't win fights, intelligence does.

1) Don't get in fights.

2) See 1.

Why are you trying to beat up bigger guys?

This is what makes people think short people have a Napoleon complex. It's like you're trying to fight when there's no reason to do so.

Intelligence your way out of fights, don't get in them. There is absolutely no reason to pick fights with anyone. Defend yourself, sure, but that's a home invasion scenario, but some random guy?

Some guy calls you chicken?

Just walk away.

Some guy calls you a fag?

Just walk away.

You're really missing the forest for the trees. What muscles to develop? I guess the ones that makes you think you'll look good in a coffin.

In terms of pure tactics, a gun beats muscles 100% of the time.

Don't worry about either.

This is easy.

Boxing and lifting for sure Focus on squats, deadlifts, pulls ups and complete push ups (with serratus activation at the end) Do not get too stiff and work your head mouvement alot, practice daily bar hanging and 10min a day in paleo chair position You can work low/middle kicks too, they are devastating in street fights on tall ppl.

Avoid fights if you can. Escape if you can. Fights degenerate quickly and weapons come out, guns knives. All street fights are un-even, if you fight fair your tactics suck. It's always a bigger guy on a smaller one, you are out numbered, someone has a weapon

For when you can't avoid the fight. You need to on work on endurance, speed (mental as well as physical), where to strike and accuracy to end the fight quickly. Speed and ending the fight quickly are far more important than big muscles. Don't forget you cardio, after a minute or two your lungs will scream stop, you need to build up your endurance. Big muscles won't help you there.

Don't forget FOOT WORK. Move damn it, move. Learn to dance if you have shit foot work. Most of your power comes from your legs and how fast you rotate your body to generate power. Foot work allows you to control time and space. The further away you are the more time you have to react to parry. The closer in the less time you have. Close in you aren't blocking or parrying shit, close in defense consists of covering vulnerable areas, absorbing hits while striking or grappling your opponent.

Get used to getting hit. Everyone has a plan until they get hit in the mouth -Mike Tyson. The shock of getting hit will cause many a person to fold up.

Stay off the ground unless you are in a controlled sporting event. But learn BJJ so you know what you are doing in a ground fight so you can get out of there quickly. His buddies may kick you in the head while you have your opponent mounted. Mix in Boxing and Muay Tai for strikes.

The most effective techniques in a martial art are usually the most basic ones. Learn the basic grapples, escapes, strikes, elbows and knee strikes to the point of being automatic. That way when the fight happens you are flowing on auto pilot. There are no magic moves just well executed ones done very quickly.

That takes care of one vs ones. The more common multi vs one or multi vs multi fights. Mental quickness and footwork are key to your survival. If alone Do not go into the center of the group or let yourself get surrounded. Work to edge of their "skirmish line" to make their numbers work against them. Don't focus on one guy. Move Move escape.

Multi on multi, Keep some kind of simple formation if you can so you can support each other. Gang up on one guy if you out number their group. Take cheap shots of opportunity when you can to help your buddy out. If out numbered finish your man quickly to even the odds. If you can move to terrain that limits their numbers, they may have 7 guys vs your 5 but if you can move to where only 5 can get you you are now even.

In any multi encounter, stay on your feet and keep your head on a swivel, things will break down and shit happens fast. Any kind of formation and cohesion you can keep will put you head and shoulders above any mob. By formation, I do not mean nice neat military parade ground formations, a rough skirmish line will do.

Now for the single most important element in this whole rant. Situational Awareness. Who and what are you facing? How many? Do they have weapons? Are they sober? Are you sober?What is your terrain like, does it constrain their numbers or constrains yours? Is there anything that can be used as an improvised weapon or shield? Do they or your crew know what they are doing? Can you avoid this fight with a big smile and a "hey man I'm sorry (what ever the offense was) let me buy you all a round of drinks."? If they apologize, let them and be gracious about it, let them save face.
