I would have expected Rick to have assessed how best to take Pete down & destroy him by now. IDK...maybe its just me but I give the edge on somebody that is a fighter any day over somebody who is "just kinda tall".

Maybe Pete took karate lessons or had krav maga training or did MMA fighting on the side?

Also, let's face it fellas, guys named "Pete" tend be, like, 100x's more bad ass in general than pretty much anyone else. That's not me talking. That's science. So, I find it totally believable that, even if he didn't have any kind of former hand-to-hand training and was just a regular ole surgeon maned "Pete", that he'd be more than a handful for Crazy Rick "Throat Biter" Grimes.
