A solid throat strike can cause death by crushing the larnx, but it is also one of the hardest places to get a solid strike. Some of the hardest places to hit are the eyes, throat, and groin. Fighters are trained to keep the chin tucked and the shoulder forward. Even untrained people instictively protect these areas. Trained fighters are not exactly slow either. Knees are also a lot harder to hurt than most think. Trained legs on a man that size are easily capable of handling 350-400 added lbs. of constant stress. Momentary stress tolerance probably goes into the 800-1000 lb. range. It is very difficult for a 150 lb. man to acheive the kind of force necessary to break or tear something. Do you have any clue how hard someone who bench presses 350-400 lbs. can hit? A small man can have his ribs cracked from one blow to the body! Don't get me wrong. In his weight class Bruce was king. Just don't take that to mean he can defeat trained fighters twice his size and strength without breaking a sweat.
