Because they're actually terrible at fighting. The best flyweights at flyweight wouldn't beat local circuit welterweights.
Yeah, I don't even think a UFC flyweight would fight me. When I towered over them in my ripped, blood-stained Tapout shirt, they would get so intimidated that they would run. I wouldn't even need to fight.Imagine believing this lmao
I can't use the excuse that I will beat 125 er in a fight since Figgy is bigger than me most likely.
I am 5'7 and 150 lbs
Pretty sure Figgy or even Cejudo have bigger Walk arround weight
Sorry TS I really like watching the munchkins fight... But, I stopped the video when the narrator said Joseph Benevidez could arguably be greater than Shogun Rua and Rashad Evans... preposterous

I’ve seen a ton of his videos and their usually pretty well done, but honestly there is no sane argument for comparison that he made that Joe B could be as great as Shogun... we are talking about a guy who not only won the title in the UFC, but performed at an elite level in Pride, He quite likely held that title if his teammate wasn’t champ... additionally he is still doing it at an elite level nearly 20 years later.I didn't finish it either, lol. Got distracted.
But I normally enjoy this dude's videos.
Considering Joe B just fought for a title I can’t argue that point, but the context that the narrator was touching on inferred greater, meaning total body of work.To me it seems obvious that Benavidez is a better fighter than the two you mention nowadays. In their primes, you could argue the point.
In highly-regulated, unarmed combat sure. Outside of that, fuck no.
Size matters less when all you have to do is aim and fire.
agreed. HW has less depth compared to other divisions, but they get that pass bc at any moment one punch could KO someone. but we also get the occasional Kimbo-Dada 5000 type fights....too much nonames.
But it's true Hw get a pass because they are huge but it's the worse men division by far yet 125 er are gettign shit on the most
Don't know about that. It's well known that Edgar barely cut any weight at 155 and he was very successful there. Most flyweights have a heavier walk around weight then Edgar used to have back then. A good 155er beats a good 125er. But an inferior 155er mauling an elite 125er like Demetrious or Cejudo? I think not!But a fight between even a flyweight and a technically inferior lightweight would be a miserable beating.
From all my experience, which is ignoring a few recommended video thumbs nails on youtube, most high level marks men are small people.
