Scrappy

Scrappy, pugnacious a fighter from birth The wee lad felled giants of super-sized girth Spectators cheered him on there was no dearth of the bubbly downed afterward and good-natured mirth They say, ‘The Bigger They Are, the Harder they Fall' of those who stand tall ‘n rigid, not flexible at all Ya gotta bend with the wind and go with the flow ‘cos if you stand there stock upright ~ Down you will go

Good one - hurray for the little guy! Sounds like a great fighter! I heard that an oak falls in a storm, but a reed survives by bending.
