Minotaurs prefer long, pole-arm weapons, which they can hold in the middle allowing them to strike with both ends. The following picture shows a minotaur with an unusual short-handled sword and lamellar armor. This Minotaur is creeping along in a low crouch actually walking on it's heels, but minotaurs normally walk on their toes like other theropods.
Long horns is very unusual for a predator. The idea of a horned theropod comes from a real-life dinosaur called Carnotaurus, which has large horns over each eye (but much shorter horns than the Squawk Minotaur.) Older Minotaur drawings have straighter horns and a combination of a feathery mane with patterns of scales found in Carnotaurus skin impressions.
