Pls give me the reason. Make sure that even a smaller size fighter can win a much bigger opponent?

If a small person wants to win a fight without striking a blow then Aikido is the way to go. It's a non-aggressive (you don't attack) art that uses the opponents body weight and movements against them. All of the power for the throws, locks and falls come from the person attacking you. The bigger they are, the farther they fly.
If you want an art where you are defending and attacking then I would say Karate. It has an equal balance of defend and attack, It uses more punches and strikes than kicks, I wouldn't kick in a real life fight, and it teaches the ONE punch. This is where you use every bit of strength and motion in your body to throw very hard and accurate punches.
My 65 lb. son fights a 250 lb. 18 year old regularly and holds his own against him.
With both of these arts, size doesn't matter.

There is no easy answer to your question. First of all forget everything you think you know about the martial arts, and everthing you've seen in the movies. There is no Mr Miagi, and no "ancient chinese secrets" Yes, mind can defeat matter, but chances are you won't develope this kind of mental dicipline from taking your run of the mill TaeKwownDo classes one hour a week from 6-7pm in the local shopping strip. Take a hard fighting art, where you hit things daily! Muay Thai, If you like kickboxing, or Regular American boxing. Remember, it's not 'just' the martial art, it's how you keep yourself in shape too. Thai boxing, and boxing also focus on keeping fit, not just punching in a horse stance...and saying "hi-ya" I've been practicing for 20 years and in Muay Thai, little 130lbs guys kick the crap out of me and I'm 255lbs! No joke.

HAPKIDO or AIKIDO

Both this arts focus on energy it teaches you to use your opponent's energy against then so no matter how big an strong they are anyone can take them down.
lots of throwing and circular movements and no hard blocks like those in Tae kwon do or Karate there are many arts out there that involve lots of hard block which at times require you to be the same size and strength as your opponent, I love Tae kwon do and all kinds of arts but I know that my chances against someone that is bigger than me are less if I use Tae kwon do against them.
all martial arts are effective in their own way it all depends on the situationn and execution of the technique
the best self defense is "not to be there" don't put your self in a situation that you don't want to be in, avoid fighting, but it is very important for you to have the knowledge and to be able to defend your self if you ever need to so Martial arts are great for that reason.
good luck
it also involves ground work so you can get out of a situatio on the ground.

It depends on the fighter & circumstances.

A small fighter with some sort of equalizer (ie. gun, bat, knife ... more) will most likely overcome a larger opponent.

Different styles are used in different situations. If a smaller person gets in close & overpowered ... the fight is pretty much over. If you can avoid the fight ... that's the best.

Muay Thai is my first choice because you can use any weapons to catch your opponent off guard.

boxing is my second choice.

It's not about style or size, it is about catching your opponent at right time on right spot. Hell You can break a opponent's arm if you hit it at very right moment for example they try to swing their arm and you block with your elbow pointing at them by accident, you can expect their arm to swing around your elbow. You can hit opponent in stomach when they're not looking and they will fall down from pain. You can set up them up with a combos for a power punch that knock them out. boxing and Muay Thai are sport that focus on knocking opponent out, so they have what you're looking for.

This a question with no definite answer,is all depends on each individual, is easy to say karate ! T.K.D. ! Kick-boxing ! etc.Same situation as who's better between two six degree black belt from Karate and T.K.D.
All style of martial arts can "produce " their good competition fighter and street fighter,problem is HOW ?
My opinion is depends how much time you can spare to practise,how talented you are ,how good is your instructor ,how deep your experience have and how many good fighters you can training with.And one more,how much money is on your budget ?

for street fighting i'd have to go with combative kickboxing, boxing, muay thai... to gain knock out power, practice is the only answer... yeah you may get luck and hit that sweet spot, you may get a punchers chance.. but proper technique and combinations of punches ensure victory... not strength or power... sure they help, but the technique needs to be there or you have 50/50 chance of getting beat...

i've seen girls goin against guys at the gym an with the proper evasion and punching technique the just out fight the guy and in some cases even knock him out....

good luck!

muay thai for streetfighting. this system's combat was used for street fighting as well as for tournaments/competetion. it usually uses the "knock out" system more than the "point system", cause on the street there are no points. but for muay thai, you body must be fit, quick, and lean that can take hits while you can give them beatings.

there are many different kinds of martial arts they are all good, it isnt the martial art that wins the fight it is the person, just because you know something it doesnt mean you can use it.
