Looking at the top guys like Stipe, Werdum, Ngannou, Cain, JDS, Reem, etc. you get the sense that these are athletes. What I mean by that is regardless of how they look they have a certain fluidity to their movement and aren't lumbering around. Then you have a giant fucking cliff and then you have the lower ranked/ unranked guys like Rashad Coutler who just fought tonight. The way they move is so different and worse than the top guys. It legitimately looks like a guy at a bar winging stuff.
I've noticed this with HW and LHW: the bottom guys don't show much athleticism in their movement. And I don't think this is a weight issue, because there are HWs (Blaydes, for example) who show a lot of athleticism even at 280lbs. Even Black Beast shows a great deal of athleticsm for his size (he just has no cardio and doesn't seem to give a shit at times).
What do you guys think. Am I talking out of my ass or do I have a point?
