Anyways, I'm super skinny, and I think I could take on 80-100. I think many people are ignoring that it's an enclosed space about the size of a basketball court and that you can't touch the walls. I really think the range for all able bodied men would be pretty acute. The limiting factor is not so much your endurance or strength, but instead the size of the space. Without the "no touching the wall" rule, I think the number jumps quite a bit. Oddly though, I think a very large room with walls would be preferable to a wall free limitless space. Walls clearly work in the singular opponent's favor rather than the group opponent.
