Is Ngannou to small to fight at SuperHW?

[Summoning]

 

[Iron Nick]

He's a lean 263 pounds.

He'd be fine at super heavyweight imo.

SHW is the worst division in MMA.

He would absolutely murder every SHW fighter.

The thread title makes no sense.

Lookin at the size of shaqs forearms and fist. He is truly a massive human being.

Certainly most of them, imo.

Now if a guy like Shaq did MMA instead of basketball and certainly if he became an elite MMA wrestler, i'd bet on him to beat Francis, but most guys much bigger than Ngannou still won't be much stronger and they sure as hell will be significantly slower; Ngannou is actually pretty fast.

Shaq is a freak of nature. If he had done MMA seriously he would have been virtually unstoppable. But because of the weight limit he wouldn't have had any competition.

The reality of the SHW division is that it is populated by morbidly obese jobbers.

Look how small he is compared to Robert Wadlow.

Lmao accurate.

People who're good in ball sports pretty much always have insane hand eye(/limb) coordination, so that plus Shaq's athleticism and size could've made him the most terrifying fighter ever, provided he's got a decent chin and the grittiness it takes to be an MMA fighter.

The HW limit helps the talent by forcing them to stay in at least somewhat reasonable shape.

No, he walks around in that weight class. Could he fight at 285 for example? Certainly.

 

[Fergelmince]

Way too small for the OG SHW's

 

[Sticko]

Look how small he is compared to Robert Wadlow.

Robert Wadlow the tallest man in history needed leg braces to walk and died at age 22 after one of his leg braces gave him a blister that led to a blood infection.

People are not meant to be that tall.

until you look at his legs. Ngannou looks like he has the same sized legs.

Lol what is that?

*too

SHW is the worst division in MMA.

I would probably rather watch 2 fat guys brawl than most women's fights in any of their divisions.
