Wallace takes this in every physical category. He's bigger stronger, and his weapons are simply going to be more affective against Alexander than Alexanders will against him, namely the war hammer. His steel mail shirt is going to be significantly lighter than a Bronze Cuirass while offer offer a similar level of protection. Now add the fact Wallace was a noble and a knight he would of received a life time of training to back up his tech and size advantage. Alexander was well suited for large army but in small squads Wallace has the advantage, as that's how he lead his army, in raids prior to big battles, this in kinda like Washington vs Napoleon but with swords and bows.
