Is being a SHORT fighter an advantage many times?
Anyone who knows about MMA will tell you that being shorter allows for more muscle at the same weight class, but less reach in many cases. In a fight, does being shorter give people the advantage of better balance, slightly more strength (body builders are always shorter people and can press more weight), or any other benefits? Im guessing that in some disciplines (judo, wrestling) being shorter is an advantage, and these people can defeat a kickboxer or the like if they can get their hands on them. What do you think?
It all depends on your trainer. Obviously, it comes to a point where if you’re too short then you won’t be able to compete. IF you want to compete at HW with the big boys, then you need to be about a minimum of 5’8″. Anything smaller than that and you’re sacrificing too much reach and power. 5’8″ has a nice combo of agility and power. See Igor Vovchancyn for an example of this.
If you’re trainer is good, he will help you learn to fight in a style that will suit you against taller opponents unless you’re like rediculously short for your weight class.
See Tyson at 5’9″ (He was billed as 5’11″ but he’s really barely 5’9″). He doesn’t fight like a conventional boxer but his trainer Cus D’amato helped him learn to duck and weave and just KO people with short, fast combos.
