Sorry. Actual martial artists generally agree that superior numbers have a massive advantage unless they’re totally useless in a fight. I mean, clone me five times and send us against Mike Tyson and he’d beat us all, but take five guys who are physically fit, participate actively in street brawls and mean business, and Mike would go down.
It’s also worth noting that boxers, wrestlers and martial artists do not usually train fighting against multiple opponents. Being aware of one opponent at a time, and paying attention to several who are trying to flank you, are whole different ball games.
Also, never underestimate a blade’s advantage over an unarmed combatant. In a real fight, a knife doesn’t do 1d4 damage. Every hit is potentially fatal, because arms and legs have arteries too. No matter how strong and tough you are, going against a knife is a mortal risk.
