Just how important is height? How held back are short men?

[superpunch]

Look at Yoel Romero.

Romero has legendary -- absolutely best ever -- explosiveness, muscle mass, athleticism, etc.

But the average fat pro MMA 6'+ guy that just eats a ton of cheeseburgers and hot dogs and weighs 240 lbs like Roy Nelson beats him in a fight anyways.

Maybe DC can win at HW. But he's the only 5'9" man in the world that can! And almost every man in the world is 5'9". 3% of men are 6' or taller. And yet all but one of the best (HW) fighters in the world are 6' or taller!

That’s a lot of feces being thrown.

Both guys are 6'2", dumb and dumber, and still millionaires. Would Jeff Daniels really be that rich if he was 5'9"?

Loli is the way! If you are a proud loli, you can overcome any obstacle.

And if you are a male, you just need to have the loli spirit. Stand SHORT and Proud always.

Honestly are you retarded? Is this the type of nonsense you want to discuss?

I'll give you some advice. Go focus on you. Whether you are 5"3 or 6"3 go be a better version of yourself. Stop wasting your time discussing irrelevant garbage and makes something of your life. Try to be successful. Get out of your parents' basement. Stop worrying about everyone else and their heights.

not as important as reach

 

[VVarhead]

No way Roy Nelson beats Yoel Romero.

Dam. I'm short and don't take this seriously at all. I was actually asking about how height matters at a pro level in fighting and people started posting other shit, so I just rolled with it lol.

It's true -- the most common height in the world is ~5'8" and only 3% of men are 6'+. But all except one of the best fighters in the world are 6'+.

Even a 5'9" guy with absolutely maxed out stats like Yoel Romero -- not top 1% but THE BEST EVER explosiveness, etc. would arguably lose to bottom of the barrel 6'+ fat guys just eating hamburgers to 250 lbs.

Like take Yoel and give him 3" of height and he goes from pretty good 185er to near GOAT HW.

 

[BigMuffler]

It's more because of weight than height directly, not many people under 6' can be an athletic 230+ lbs.

 

[Übermacht]

I always hated sparring against shorter opponents with a stocky build.

 

[Soul On Ice]

Yoel would destroy Roy

Manlet detected.

Short men are angry men. School shooters. Women hating men's rights activists. Virgins.
