Not quite king of manlets TS, but almost.
Ok is he the Cruisest one?!?
is a 6´2, 130 lbs guy considered a "manlet"? its just the height or the weight, or a combination of both?
It just jumped to 6'5". The Carwin Effect.Nah, 6"2 is manlet these days. Ideal Sherdog height is 6"4.
The fact that you need to use the term manlet for someone who doesn't meet a fabricated height standard indicates some deep rooted issue.I don’t hate manlets, I hate manlets that doesn’t cut weight; they’re like 5’7 or 5’8 and fights at FW...
If they’re going to be manlets, at least kill yourself to make BW or 5’6 to make FyW, there’re 5’6 fighting at BW, and 5’7 OR TALLER at FW.
The issue here is that people feel the need to put a label, in this case a degrading one, on someone who doesn't meet their height standard. It's the same thing when you label a person by the colour of their skin. It just displays an insecurity and fear of those people/s, possible stemming from some deep rooted issues. Not saying you do that, but the ones throwing the term 'manlet' around to compensate for their own shortcomings, pun intended."Manlet" is usually reserved for fighters who're very small in size. Usually, the 135 division, and also regarding any talk of a male 120,115, or 105 division. There was another term, "Vanilla Midget" which in Pro Wrestling referred to anyone under the height of 6 foot 4, who's "plain" or generic.
There's a LOT of people who don't like watching fights between guys the size of seventh graders. There's a lot of people who don't like watching fights between women. Lots of people hate watching fights that devolve into "boxing matches", and lots of people who hate watching fights that are essentially a lay-n-pray or hug-n-tug situation. And for each thing these fans hate, is a fan who loves it.
I hate watching MM because he's smaller than my 13 year old nephew. I just can't. Then again, I work with a guy who stands 5 foot three, and MM is his favorite fighter - he said that he feels he identifies with MM, and that MM represents "people like him". I know an old guy who hates WMMA because "women shouldn't fight, it's unlady-like". I know a feminist who feels that Amanda Nunes represents her, as she's a gay athlete and feels that Nunes is her representative in MMA.
It's anyone who incites insecurities and fear in them. If they are not small in stature, they'll find another term to try to degrade them.is a 6´2, 130 lbs guy considered a "manlet"? its just the height or the weight, or a combination of both?
leave it to the manlet to take the word manlet so seriously he makes a thread about it
We live in a superficial world...
you're just not watching MMA then.... unless you mean 125An honest answer..... The little guy fights are going so fast that it almost resembles choreographed dance. Not always, but a majority of the time. There isn't anyone like this at that weight anymore.
Its just fucking losers who have nothing going for them but being tall. Its pathetic. I'm 6'3" btw and making fun of people for anything they are born being is just low brow bullshit.
Someone help me out with the smaller weight class bias...
