(Ep 33) Size Isn't Everything — Mindset and Tactics for Overcoming Size Differences

In this episode, the hosts discuss how smaller fighters can handle size discrepancies in training and competition. They cover tactical adjustments (leverage, timing, space management), target selection (neck and ankles), and practical training strategies like rolling with bigger partners to prepare for different opponents.

The conversation also explores the mental side: confidence, resilience after losses, and how to learn from setbacks. The hosts share personal anecdotes from tournaments and training, and offer a simple grading idea for estimating how weight differences affect perceived skill matchups.
