Objectively correct opinion
>>77382468Underrated based opinion. Reach is such a big fucking deal. We talking upper or lower body reach? Stipe would be in flyweight lmao
>>77382468Classes are for weaklings and fags Open divisions are where real men compete
so how do you work around reach advantages? just focus on baiting and countering/ takedowns?
>>77382468Why would somebody voluntarily let this happen to them? Are fighters retarded?
>>77382468I'm way too thick for 99% of the shit they could possibly ever throw to even rock me. I can end a fight with a bodyshot because I'm a big boy.
>>77382468Combat sports are never going to be "fair", and I think it's very reddit to start complaining about weight bullies and shit. Some people have better frames, that's just how it is. Peira got rekt effortlessly because his frame doesn't handle heavyweight, despite him weighing more than Gane.
>>77382468If you feel this way, then watch & support Kudo>>77382798You're a faggot, in case you didn't know. The whole point to rules in sports is to equalize the playing field so skill is the primary determining factor to success. This is more true in combat sports than anywhere else. Sybau and fuck off cause it's obvious you don't even watch MMA.
>>77382719Open divisionNo roundsOnly rules are no eye gouging and no biting, everything else goes
>>77382468Yeah, fighting guys with long limbs is a pain in the ass. I try to kick some motherfuckers and they get me with a cross because their arm reach is pretty much the same as my shin's so I switch to crotchsniffing instead. One of my coaches is a Kike Israel tier manlet and he just enters and stay as close as possible, but he needs to tank a lot of punches before landing a significant one. The guy is like a ninja turtle with zero neck though so he's pretty hard to take down. I love challenges though, fight lanky dudes or really big guys is way more fun than just fighting fellow average dudes.
>>77383042what about kicks to the balls, toe stomps, ear pulling, hair pulling, scratching, spitting, peeing and shitting?
>>77383060Would be pretty based if GG Allin could've competed now that you mention it.
>>77383060>shitting
>>77382468Pointless stupid opinion. There isn't that much correlation between a fighter's success and his reach
>>77382468Height classes too.
>>77382468Agreed, height and reach is a much bigger deal than weight. Stop all the mexicans from starving themselves and have them fight their own sized men
>>77383138Someone too tall with not enough weight is way easier to pick up and throw
>>77382468Fighting is for animals.
>>77382468I don't understand this pic.
>>77384664Fitness is irrelevant compared to reach when fighting barefist. Doesn't matter how strong you are when you can't reach your opponent before he does.
>>77384688Thank you
>>77384688Have any of you retards ever fought. I am tall and would have short guys just close the distance. It's not that complicated
>>77384896>Have any of you retards ever fought.This is a fitness board. If you want sports go to /sp/
>>77384934we're full
>>77386392sup b
>>77386393full of brown tourists watching futbol
>>77382724Well you have to keep in mind that it’s a sport with rules and a scoring rubric. So you want to score points, and for that reason, takedowns and grappling are king in MMA. Close the gap and you have the advantage. But this is also why MMA is boring as fuck now. 9/10 fights are just wrestling/grappling matches.
>>77386401you dont know what youre talking about
>>77386398you wouldn't get it
>>77384688if you actually watch the sport you would know just how shit most reachcels actually are but instead here you are being a larping retard
>>77382468I don't know, Prates lost against Machado just a year ago despite a 4 inch reach advantage.
>>77386411>20yo boomers getting fooled by fakeslop bootyjigglewe're rapidly approaching jeet-tier retardation

>>77388232Humans also are clouds of atoms. I don't hear anyone casually referring to themselves as a bunch of particles.
>>77387441that boy there got some of dem pachycephalosaurus genes
>>77383121Lolwut? Yes there is. Why lie like this? This shit has been studied to death. The only reason UFC doesn't do it is cause it would drastically reduce what is considered fair pairings and they refuse to reduce their retarded schedule.
Im just a bunch of particles, casually speaking.
>>77382468lol nojust invest into movement tech if your a reachletspider limbs don't work when they breach your range with effective feintslanklets get cooked in the ufc, prates vs jdm was a pure skill differencejdm belongs at lightweight, prates will get mogged by an elite grappler
>>77388353blasted gear and spammed eye pokes against out of shape uncslowkey weak careeri still respect him for his fights against gustaffson, the strength of his record is questionablehe's more like khabib than gsp or mighty mouse, strategic opponent selection
it seems we can post here without getting mocked bappas
>>77382468Fuck itJust reduce the number of weight classes Bantam Weight, Light Weight, Middle Weight, and Heavy Weight.
>>77382468There are no reach classes in the jungle.
