 * With a puff of smoke the melting me turns out to really be a log which then starts to melt. I suddenly appear a distance away from Xena*

Me: Now now, who do you think trained my raptors hmmm? You think I wouldn't have a tricks up my sleeve? Now pay attention Razor.


 * In a rage, Xena charges at me. At the last moment I side step her snapping jaws. With one hand hand a push her head slightly downwards as she passes by putting her slightly off balance, then with the other I deliver a heavy blow to her ankle finishing the job. She trips and goes tumbling across the ground from her own momentum. As she grinds to a hault I turn to continue my lecture*

Me: When an opponent with greater strength attacks you, the key is to redirect the blow, not stopping it. Not only does that actually work, but it also puts your foe off balance and vulnerable. Your opponents balance will usually be slightly compromised when they attack anyways so timing a throw right with your opponents attack can be very effective. It's especially easy with things like Ultimasaurs since they're so top and front heavy. Badly thought out designs like that are the second biggest problem with chimeras like that.
