It was a young cat and he got lucky. Trail running in mountain cat country isn't the smartest thing to do; he triggered the animal's prey drive by doing so. If he hadn't turned around right when he didn't, he likely wouldn't have survived the attack.
resorted to choking it out eh? I suppose that's one way you could kill a mountain lion with your bare hands. I would have raised it up over my head and thrown it into a volcano.
I'd have kept it, stuffed it, and bring it home. Anytime anyone comes to my home I could tell the story how I slayed the beast with my bare hands.
80lbs is a smaller animal but ANY cat this big can be a killing machine. My 10lb cat could probably kill me easy if she was 20lbs, let alone 80.
An 80 pound cat?
Oh my living gawd, that was a fight.
