@turnermic17 Yes, he had trouble with that particular Brute, but once again, it was only because the Chief and his armor were still badly banged-up from the events on Halo. Hell, one of the newer books has a fully-rested SPARTAN-II in brand-new armor taking down a Brute in a fist-fight.
Also, the fight with the Elite actually happens in the same book; again, Chief was still recovering from Halo (plus the Elite wouldn't die even after being shot multiple times after losing shields).

@asgarnon I thought it was a brute he trouble with not an elite. The only trouble he had with elites was getting past their shields
-
@umbrellashotgunman In one of the books didn't they say Chief fought or wrestled with a brute and almost lost with his suit on?

@asgarnon Last thing, there's also a scene in Ghosts of Onyx (which I should note has the same author as First Strike) where Kelly-087 takes down three sword-wielding Elites in hand-to-hand combat (basically, she disarms one of them, and proceeds to cut them up). Hell, there's a scene in the book where another SPARTAN kills a Hunter with only his hands.

@asgarnon Hell, just look at the games; there are plenty of parts in Halo 1 and 2 where Chief ends up having to single-handily fight 3-2 Elites at once. And at the end of Halo Reach, you had to take down a Field Marshall and three other Zealots by yourself. Also, in The Cole Protocol, it's explicitly stated that Thel 'Vadam and Jai-006 would have killed each other had they fought, despite the fact that Thel is much better than the average Elite, while Jai has no energy shields.

@asgarnon @mamobster1500 Actually, while Elites and Spartans are physically equal, Spartans are on average more skilled as fighters. In Ghosts of Onyx, 11 Spartans (half of whom are S-IIIs wearing inferior SPI armor) hold off against an assault wave of 90 Elites and 6 Hunters. Even in First Strike, the only reason the Chief has trouble against the Spec-Ops elite is because he's already worn out from the events of Halo CE, and even then, it's clear that he's the more skilled fighter.

@asgarnon they are equal in strength but not at combat skills. spartans have better teamwork and training which is why it takes a bunch of them to almost kill one
