Initially I wanted to say something derogatory and very unpositive, but I'll just sum it up by saying no duh. If there are two BJJ guys, both equally skilled, and one is bigger...he is obviously going to have an advantage. I mean, if there's two champ boxers going at it, won't the one with the longer reach get more punches in?
Anyway, I think part of that bill that the smaller guy can defeat a big guy is because Helio Gracie is a smaalllll guy and he adapted the Jiu Jitsu he was learning to fit himself. So he had to really get the techniques good. Crisp. Solid. And so you can be a smaller guy with a shorter reach, shorter legs, etc and still do alright against a bigger guy...cause Helio Gracie made things tight like that. (Word is bond.) But obbbbbviously, if there are two equally skilled BJJ dudes going at it and the one dude is bigger, he has a weight advantage going on. And obviously, a small guy that knows Muay Thai is going to mess up a bigger dude that has no clue. I dunno. I think this is all really self-evident.
Ah well.
