I'm like a slightly, taller/lighter George Roop lol
Being 6'2 in these divisions has a pretty great advantage though.
Edit: Point was that at 129 I feel I can get a better idea at where some of the women are at than bigger guys can, and Randa is a beast on the mat.
I guess Will Chope is 6'4 and makes FW so it's very possible. Pretty crazy you're significantly taller and lighter than me, I don't think i've met anyone taller than me who would be below 130ish
As someone who's naturally skinny and can eat whatever etc. but can't put on muscle well i'd definitely take our side over people who struggle with being overweight
I want a picture of yoyobo standing next to Mighty Mouse for comparison. If I cut weight i'd probably not quite make 125 but could definitely make 135 easily with my current frame, I might be able to get down to 125 with time but i'd literally have zero muscle and be badly dehydrated. If I actually worked out and added muscle mass i'd walk around at 155-160 probably and cut to FW or something. The thought that i'm in the same weight class as Aldo/Mendes if I worked out is scary to me. That would go poorly for me.
I remember at the convention I went to with Elliot we saw some of the guys like MM and he's so short it's crazy, I ran into Scott Jorgensen around Vegas at least 3-4 times in summer '13 and I think I was about the same weight as him although he was shorter/more muscular. Bang Ludwig was *slightly* bigger than I expected and was also seemed to be one of the nicest people ever.
Also, Bonnar, Tito and to a lesser extent Drysdale are fkn huge. The LHWs are BIG guys. Bonnar and Tito are way bigger than they look on TV
