Hurr durr weight is a huge advantage in a fight

>hurr durr weight is a huge advantage in a fight

Not even if the fat guy knows how to do basic fighting.
NOT EVEN THEN

Not to imagine how much MORE useless it is if you dont know ANYTHING about fighting

This isn't a fighting board.

>kungfu master
lol

also, he's just fat and out of shape
he didn't really lose
he just ran out of breath and couldn't fight anymore so he taped out

>he just run out of breath

Exactly, like every single guy on here that simply lifts weights.

Its actually a disadvantage if you think about it. Even if you actually have 15k of lean muscle mass on the fighter.

fite me about it

looks like size matters

Between equally skilled fighters: Probably. Not that it's thoroughly tested.
If you think about it, Connor fucked up people two weight classes above him right?

But between an unskilled fighter and a BASIC fighter, it doesn't matter.
Basic fighter wins 10/10 matches.

he got BTFO by 6'2 master race CroCop

It is ever since WWE invaded asp.

size doesn't matter if you are extremely good.

That's the reason why Crocop and Fedor killed a lot of guys bigger than them (some of those big guys had shit to no technique at all though)

do you have the skill and experience of a professional fighter with years of training and fights? is your opponent only one guy? is your opponent unskilled like you? is your opponent smaller than you? yes? then yeah, size matter.

conor mcgregor is a gigantic featherweight

nate diaz is a medium sized lightweight, he is too small to be competitive at WW (where he got ragdolled by rory macdonald like he was a child)

in no way did mcgregor fuck up someone two weight classes above him, if anything it it showed how important size and length is in a fight

conor went from having the touch of death at FW and icing anyone he hit clean to hitting nate over and over again, and nate was still there

Conor is 1-1 with Nate, but his loss to Nate was a lot more emphatic than his win over Nate where he gassed and ate some flurries against the cage

>kung fu
what the fuck is kung fu?

in mandarin kung fu means skill acquired from hard work

kung fu isnt real.

there's styles of martial art. like tai chi, wing chun, whatever, but kung fu is just a term used to sell snake oil to white people.
if you dont train full contact every so often to keep you in touch with reality, you arent training at all.

also that video was shit. the fat guy didnt throw one proper punch and kept clinching to slow the fight down. its essentially a trained fighter vs a fat guy.

The full advantage bestowed upon combatants by size is not best observed from a match between a stout but skilled manlet and an obese "kung fu master."

But observe the following: two elite superheavyweight kickboxers square off in the finals of the 2012 GLORY Grand Slam. One is 6'11.5", 287 lb, the other is "only" 6'4.5", 238 lb.

Size makes a huge difference between equally skilled combatants. Weight especially matters when you have a telephone pole sized leg kicking you in the head.

>18 minutes

Is that why fighters try so hard to be at the low end of their weight class?

i'm like an inch shorter than ghita and jesus christ imagine being pressured by a guy as big as schilt

it's like a fucking house is attacking you

No. Some of us actually do cardio...?

Connor does crazy amounts of gear to gain and lose shit like that.

By gigantic you mean they lie on weights?


I know the smaller weight classes are basically manlet awards.

by gigantic featherweight, i mean he is gigantic relative to other featherweights

obviously a 5'9" man who weights 170 some pounds before cutting to 145 is not objectively gigantic, but when most of the other guys are 5'7" and don't have a disproportionate 6'2" wingspan it's a distinct advantage

Cain Velasquez would murder anyone lower than light heavyweight.
