lol you can still move extremely fast being a big man
ive had no speed issues and the guy who taught me tkd and goju was even faster than me and he was 280 pounds!
It comes down to pure simple physics.
Speed + Mass= Power
If you get an object with a larger mass moving at speed, it is going to have more power output than something smaller with less mass moving at speed.
So all the little sticks who think they can create more power by moving faster, are not going to be able to create as much power as someone larger.
Hence you will NEVER see any lightweight knock down or knock out a heavyweight.
actually thats happened more than once
i assume youve never seen the igor gerus vs gerry harris fight? LOL

observe! Clueless jibba jabba.
besides all the whining about how Dale has owned you and would crush you, because he would, you go on to make remarks about people who fought in weight divisions and under rule sets that can barely be remembered and are entirely irrelevant to the content.
None of the people you mentioned ever fought in any venue that is typical of today's sportive combative.
You claim to have fielded fighters but can't name any. Or get corroboration. You get called on the crap in your website and you take it down. You then claim you're making another one. You'll get called on that too and take it down, so why bother.
Fool, you better learn some boxing and stop trying to rip people off with some notion that you can actually teach anyone anything about martial arts.
so come on back and whine and rant about what I'm saying, but it's true.
You need to seriously stfu and seriously practice some martial arts because you are gonna need em with a mouth like yours all the names you drop and all the connections you don't have.
forrest gump was right, stupid is as stupid does.
now retort oh assless one. lol you know you need to. :p
LOL
but still it proves a point
i never believed size automaticlaly equals power
ive met big guys who couldnt punch for **** and ive met smaller guys who had freakish strength
personally ive always thought smaller guys USUALLY make better fighters( before anyone jumps on this im not a small guy im 6'2 and 230 pounds so im not defending my fellow wee people)
i think most often big guys tend to be very lazy and dont develop to their full potential
and many of them think just because they are big they can kick ass
case in point the video i posted
that big fella was being so c ocky during the announcements he really thought he had that fight in the bag and he got a rude awakening
actually that whole card was like that
america sent quite a few big guys in that tournament and they got destroyed by a much smaller igor vovchanchyn
Size = reach and THAT in of itself is a huge issue.
When I competed in kyoksuhin I fought in no weight limit categories ( typical of kyokushin) and limited ones ( Under and over 200Lbs).
I was only 140-150 at the time and at only 5'-6", it was quite the task fighing guys full contact that were 4-6 " taller at times and in some cases 100lbs heavier !!
oh i agree size IS a great thing to have no doubt at all
however as that vid i posted proved it really doesnt do much to strengthen your jaw lol
you can be as big as you like but all it takes is one punch or kick and your done
i agree but on the flip side ive seen more than enough go the other way to the point where it would make me realize it would not be a good idea to waltz into a fight with a smaller guy thinking my size alone is gonna win it
my experience sparring with smaller mma fighters has helped form my opinion on this subject as well
as far as lucky punches go i dont really believe in such thing as a "lucky punch"
anyway im off see ya guys!
Old saying: It's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog. Determination often overcomes resistance. We have all seen it and most of us have stuck out in tough parts of training in our past to understand this.:D
