    Brock Lesnar is not a notoriously well trained MMA fighter, but he does not fight with a style like Bob Sapp. And Brock is beating guys who are smaller, and everyone can see, it's just sheer size and power that is allowing him to dominate most of them.

    If you fight simply depending on size to over come your opponets, you get a fighting record like Bob Sapp (who still managed to beat Ernesto Hoost twice) but if you have some game plan, and are fighting to WIN, if you are committed to it, that size and strength works in your favor.

    You got idea what talking about mate.
    Sapp V Hoost was K1....and it's a small ring when shared with Bob Sapp, Hoost, who I have met several times, lost the second fight because he was dumb and wanted to prove something. He had the fight in the bag!
    Brock, that guy is top class on the ground! Do you think wrestling is all strengh?

    Ya, I suppose I'm just some newb, knows nothing, yet I'm the one saying 9 times out of 10, the smaller guy wins.

    Do I think Wrestling is ALL strength?

    Exactly where do I say that? You suck at making a point, no harm intended, but no where do I say strength will WIN you a fight. What I do say, is it's a HELPFUL tool in a fight.

    Would Brock be a D1 champ if he was not so big and athletic? There is a good chance he would not be.

    Would Bob Sapp ever beat Hoost if he was the same size? Probably NOT

    I'm glad Ernesto was nice enough to give you a autograph, but that does not impress me enough that I'll believe that size and strength is not a benefit in a fight. (now remember, I said benefit, not everything)

    Sorry to come across like a dick.
    I agree with what you say, you just used poor examples, IMO.
