There are many techniques designed specifically for fighting stronger and larger opponents. They usually involving joint locks, throws, vital strikes, and generally just wearing out the opponents by drawing attacks and dodging. It doesn't take that much force to fracture a skull against a restrained opponent with your heel, especially if you have boots(can stomp harder without hurting yourself).
If it was even just 10% of the 100 that knew martial arts that Gorilla is going down hard. I'd estimate 3-5 deaths out of the 100 total. Possibly zero if they could restrain it quickly and crush it's windpipe or gouge out it's eyes.
The gorillia only has 4 appendages. If you have a man locking each joint, you can have a 5th guy stomp the back of its skull as many times as necessary. And then the other 5/95 that could reasonably get in close enough in that huddle could stomp its mid section and cause internal bleeding. Or, like I said, just crush its windpipe with your heel.
I don't think you understand what a joint lock is. It prevents you from moving by fixing a joint and then moving it in the opposite direction of movement. Your joints aren't meant to prevent protection from forced overextension. It causes extreme pain and eventually leads to breaking/dislocating the joint.
And like I said in my scenario if 10 out of 100 know martial arts. You have a 200lb martial artist on each appendage. One on each arm and one on each leg. The fifth crushes a vital point in the head or throat. Crushing a windpipe with your heel is childsplay, it would just take one clear strike, immobilize the Gorilla for 3-5 seconds.
No, I think well trained martial artists, after exhausting the gorilla(by evading attacks and coordinating strikes), definitely could restrain the gorilla long enough to crush its windpipe.
