no bigger than
He was no bigger than I was, so I thought him a fair game.
1. Does "no bigger than" means "as small as"?
"It's Amery; he is in Grade Six.He is champion at gym; he has got his football honor."
2. What does football honor mean?

1. It can mean that. Basically, it means the same size or smaller.
2. Is not correct standing alone. I guess it means he has won an award for football. It may need a little more context for better explanation

it means 'as small as' or 'not bigger than me' or possibly 'same size as me'. This type of phrase is used when you are being competitively sized up with someone and you want to feel just as strong as your opponent.
