does anyone else love watching manlet vs lanklet match ups?

He obviously is

Compared to Struve. But he's average height compared to the general population.

 

[HHJ]

Manlet doesn't account for weight though, IMO it's strictly height based.

Bullshit.

"Manlet" started with Conor at 145.

Hunt is 6 ft tall or close to it, and weighs 300 lbs. Quit this nonsense!

Who was that chubby MW that DC was training with for years that was like 5'3? Blanking on his name, but watching him in there was always fun to watch, although not for the reasons he'd like it to be!

Deron Winn? Weird build for sure!

 

[LaChiflera]

yeah sure why not

Dream fight would be Ilia vs Zabit

Hell yeah. I miss that Honest Abe lookin mofo

Matches with wildly differing fight styles and/or body types can be a whole lot of fun. Guys like Big Country certainly weren’t manlets but being on the ground floor against Sky Scraper, he sure looked like a hobbit. In modern mma, when a lot of them are well rounded and have a lot of the same weapons, it is interesting to see what totally different physiques offer as a fight variable.

Hot dog, we have a wiener! Not that he won that much, but you know what I mean.

We typically have gotten along pretty good on this website, so we can just disagree and leave it at that.

He obviously is

Do you mean in comparison to Struve, or just in general?

 

[VAfan]

lanklet? is that a term in common usage now? if so, never heard it. and kinda lame, if you ask me.

 

[FlowchartRog]

Yeah, I do actually. It's partly why I'm a Fundora fan.

 

[Bork Neslar]

Who gives a shit.

 

[BowserJr]

Conor vs Nate

How do you feel about this fella?

5'6 LHW & Cruiser world champ

According to Evander Holyfield "the hardest he ever got hit" was this little pint size powerhouse.

 

[nonoob]

Mark Hunt was really fucking good for being so short and fat. I miss me some mark hunt. We have like 2 ko artists at hw used to be a roster of em

Hunt vs Struve was another classic battle - war, as always, Hunt, the walk-off king.

 

[usernamee]

I do love watching lanklets getting killed by overhands and put in a coffin

MMA lanklets always stand their with their hands down and chins straight up begging for a blasting

Wow, tbh I had no idea he was only 5'6. I knew shortish, but not that short.

As much boxing as I've watched, I haven't seen much of him at all, as historically I'm more of a fan of the lighter weights. I might have to catch some of his fights now though

5'6 as a successful cruiserweight is unbelievably short.

Even Inoue seems on the short side for 122 or 126, at 5'4. Some other elite fighters at that weight for example Morales and Barrera, were 5'8 and 5'6. And Pacquiao at 5'6 does seem very short at welterweight.
