I did not say two trained exactly equal. In fact, I said choose the small one that is better compare to the bigger one. In order to establish some sort of standard, I said specifically pick the 140lbs best of UFC to fight with an average 180lbs UFC fighter. Just by specifying UFC fighter, I narrow to those that are good enough to be in UFC fights, that control to a specific minimum standard. I specified the same height to ensure they have similar reach.There is an obvious, uncontrolled variable.
'Trained' is not a consistent measure - who decides, and how.. that two people are 'equally trained'? Two people who have been training for exactly the same amount of time are obviously not going to have exactly the same degree of skill. Is someone going to magically 'know' that two people are equally skilled?
It's a frivolous discussion.
Yes, there's no absolute controlled comparison, but it is the best I can think of. Hell, it's sure better than people that said "muscle is no use, it slow you down and get in the way!!". By what standard they use to say this? At least I am trying to be fair. If anyone has better ways, I am all ears. I just cannot accept what is being said. This is very miss leading, giving people false hope that if they train, they are all good. It is NOT.
Do not say muscle doesn't matter, do not say height doesn't matter. It is irresponsible to say that to students. They might go out and start something they cannot finish thinking they can win. Life is not that simple. Just train, the more people train, the better chance they can win.
