Which body type is better suited to MMA

Man, any week when there is no UFC on we always get the best threads made in here lol

But obviously the Short and stocky body type is the pinnacle of MMA
 
Different body types for different styles.

Someone like DC or Khabib at lower weight classes is perfect for wrestling while long kick-boxers like Pereira are able to use their tools better.
 
Being short for Demetrious has worked out pretty well for him.
 
Long but any bodytype can succeed in mma

GOATs of each division:
-HW: Fedor | small for division
-LHW Jones | The lankiest
-MW: Anderson Silva | Lanky
-WW: GSP | average length
-LW: Khabib | slightly big for division but not particularly lanky
-FW: Aldo | average length
-BW: Dominick Cruz | slightly long for division
-FlyW: Mighty Mouse | average length
 
Not sure about body type but reach is very important.

Volkabovski is short but has a long reach. Most champs seem to have more reach than most of their challengers.
