Real story: Tried that. Got a bloody nose as a result. Asian bullies are badass... :<

CRDL as a whole seems far more of a wuss than Jaune himself. However, Cardin himself knows how to fight. Just a few notches above Jaune.

That is likely his reason for bullying Jaune. His skill level is actually just almost Jaune-like. The only reason he can win against him is because Jaune literally has almost no training. After episode 14 though? Yeah...
